"Pssst"
This boy can't be serious. I know that I won't sleep but it's got to be at least 5 in the morning, let me be boy.
I crawl out of my bed and crouch on the floor to be met by Aris' face through a vent door he has now taken off.
"Come on let's go get the new guy"

I roll my eyes and stuff the pillows under the blankets to make it look like I'm still sleeping and follow him through the vents. After many twists and turns that Aris and I have learned to memorize off by heart we arrive to where Aris had taken us.
He turns to me,

"You ready?"
I nod. Not really but fuck it, I guess. He kicks open the hatch and crawls out, me following.

"Jesus where did this boy come from?"

"Hey it's the canteen kids"

"Who?"

"The ones who sit alone"

"Ohhhhhhhhh"
I mentally punch them and make a mental note to slap some common sense into them later.

"Hey you get it?" Aris asks.

The 'leader' holds up a keycard.

"Yeah, I got it" he turns to the group, "your right maybe I am being paranoid but something IS going on here and I want to know what it is just cover for me, okay? I'll be back soon"

He follows Aris into the vent and I stay with the boys, as part of the plan.

"Soooooo... hi I'm Frypan but you can call me Fry" the first one spoke up. One by one they introduced themselves.

"Well, I'm Sasha, Aris' friend fro the maze that I'm not doubt you know us 'Canteen kids'" I said referencing to their earlier remark. No one spoke after that. I sat cross legged on the floor by the vent awaiting their return. We all sat in an awkward and uncomfortable silence. This was going to be fun.
