"The Night We Met" Newt edition

Memories

Everything was tranquil as I laid on my back...

And everything suddenly changed.

"Wicked is good" as visions of people raced around my head and a young boy, he seemed so familiar. He had dark brown hair, brown eyes, he began speaking barely audible words to me memories vision flying past by seconds "you can't...why?" words echoing around the visions, "NO Y/N LET HER GO!" I "everything is going to change" a blonde headed lady spoke putting a hand on my shoulder, I saw faces in some kind of tank screaming as bubbles left their mouth 'Gally...Alby? And...

Newt... the last thing I heard was a familiar young girl speaking to me "Thomas will be fine".

I gasped a breath as a hand went over my mouth...realizing its Alby, he lifted a finger towards his mouth hushing me "Y/N...follow me" I nodded standing up from my hammock walking along the grass to where the wall was.

"It's peaceful isn't...I know it's hard to believe but we weren't always this way" I stared at Alby as he turned his head facing down at me. I turned my head in a perplexing expression "we had dark days". Alby paused dropping his head in guilt "we lost a lot of boys to fear...to panic", his gaze returned to me staring into my eyes. I couldn't tell how he was feeling all I could see was the actions showing of pure integrity. "We've come far since then...established order and made piece" no matter what I kept staring upon his features, never looking down or anywhere else "why are you telling me this?" I acknowledged and he slightly nodded "because you're not like everyone else...your curious". He passed a knife in my hands "you're one of us now and you need to know what that means". As we came to a stop to the part of a wall that had a clutter of names on the stone wall. I grazed my hands over the names and found a spot to start chipping my name into it.

(Time skip) #

Once my name was carved into the stones wall, I positioned my hand to my sides overlooking the work I've done "congrats, you're apart of the Glade" Alby gave me a warm smile as I handed him the handle of the shrill knife "go head to Newt...he's in the gardens".

Jogging to the track-hoe team wasting no time to start my job. The boys faced me at once I arrived standing on Newts side. Moments later I was intertwining plants on this piece of wood to prevent the plant from bending any sort of way that could break off the vegetable plant. While continuing what I was told to do for what felt like hours I got curious once again, and since it's Newt...

"Hey Newt...has anyone tried climbing to the top?", Newt continued his work humming in response as I asked for him "tried it...Ivy doesn't go all the way to the top...beside where are we going to go from there" I lifted my head towards Newt observing his expressions. The more I know about him...the more I know he's trying to hide something from me, and I know it.

"And what about the box, the next time it comes up?", I abruptly stopped my work and leaned on the wood of the arch trellis "No, we tried that...the box won't go down with anyone in it." I knew from that time on there was something wrong with this subject that Newt hesitated to talk about as he used few words.

"What if we- ", I was interrupted as Newt snapped his head around the corner of the trellis "No we tried it alright. Twice...anything you think of we've tried...now you want to be helpful?" I jumped in the sight of his anger raging at me...for some reason made me want to cry "here go dig us up some more fertilizer" he explained throwing me a handmade twig bucket with a shovel. All I could do was stare at the ground guilty, but he felt nothing he just resumed his intertwining of the plants.

I trudged to the woods with the twig bucket and a metal shovel "just get the fertilizer...are you guys sure I can't help in any other way...NO! just get the fertilizer. You know where it is, in the middle of the woods". I huffed coming to an abrupt stop being faced with a figure standing in front of me.

"You're Ben right...I don't know if we ever...", witnessing his actions, his trembles and quivering of the lower lip. His eyebrows furrowed sobbing "hey are you okay?".

Ben pounced at me getting a hold of my waist and pulling me down under him "GET THE HELL OFF OF ME!" I screamed in pain as he held my wrists so tightly, I could feel my circulations cut out "It's your fault...I saw you". He griped harder on my wrists...then let go and made a grasp on my neck, choking my breaths in as I heard his words taunt me "you did this! I saw you!", I gasped for air coughing for the lack of air particles in my lungs "I SAW YOU!" he screeched with his echoes surrounding us. I clasped a skull from the ground and whacked it across his head, making him let go of my neck.

"HEYY! HEYYYYYY!" I sprinted for my life trying to catch my breath but failed, my vision continuously getting blurry but the struggle of air getting through my lungs, my wrist in pain from the deathly hold he had on me.

"HEYYYYYY! HEELLP!", I kept the pace making my way out of the woods, my uproarious screams repeating in my ears as I kept running through the forest "HEEELP!" I ran out of the woods and was about to race through the fields until I knew he was on my tail and lunged forward to snatch my foot sending me to the dirty floor "HEEEELPP!" I sent out another scream hoping someone, or anyone could hear my cries for help.

"I'll kill you!" next thing I know, I felt him grasp a something from his waist belt. I tried wiggling out of his grasp until I heard another voice enter my ears "HEY!" And Ben got whacked with a wooden log by Newt "hold him down".

My whole body fell limp and I winced in pain breathing heavily, I felt hands move me away from Ben...
