In the maze

1. Your arrival

Thomas:

It was dark, you could barely see shadows and forms around you. But you felt

the movement. Whatever was this cell, it was rising up.

You tried to stand up, failing miserably when the cell was shaken by something. You stood there, quietly, knowing that something dangerous will happen, preparing yourself mentally to face what will come to you.

You couldn't remember anything but usual, general facts. You could name every bone in your body but you couldn't remember your parents names. Or faces. Or your age.

YN. At least, you knew your name.

The box stopped with a long creak that hurt your ears and you stood up, not knowing what to do. You didn't have any weapons and you didn't know who's going to be outside...or what. But you were determined to survive anyway.

You've stuck to the wall, waiting.

The ceiling - at least what you thought it was a ceiling - was actually a trap. When it was opened, the blinding light of the sun filled the cell. You could see many boxes, barrels and bags. The murmur of the voices above you became understandable little by little.

"Oi, Newt, I can't see the greenie. Go in there." a rough voice resonated over the others.

You didn't here an answer, but a boy that couldn't be more than 16 jumped in the cell. You were still hidden in the shadow as the trap was smaller than the actual cell and the sun could only touch your legs. You analysed the boy. Tall, blonde, you wondered if you could fight against him and win. The thought was interrupted when he saw you.

"Bloody hell!" e exclaimed and the others stopped talking.

"What's wrong?"

"It's a bloody girl!" he said grabbing your hand. You let him, as he seemed as surprised as you were and he helped you out of the box.

You stood up in the grass looking around. Thirty or forty boys around you and not a single girl. You analysed the whole place, a big meadow surrounded by giant walls. Your eyes remained fixed on one opening between the walls.

"Okay, shows over shanks go back to your jobs. Newt let's see whatwe'll do with her..." Your eyes widened, they were planning something already. You didn't wait to hear more, your legs moved themselves. You were running towards the closest opening, ignoring the voices behind you. You could tell they started running after you so you sprinted between the walls. You were about to turn right when you bumped into someone. You were about to fall, but the boy kept you on your feet.

"You...a girl..." he said confused.

You screamed. For no reason, the whole thing was terrifying and this was the first moment you actually realized things are serious.

"Calm down!" he screamed back. "We're not gonna hurt you, what the hell is wrong with you, coming here?!" he exclaimed while taking you in his arms bridal style and getting you back to the meadow. The other boys were there, with worried looks on their faces. When they saw you two, they seemed relieved.
