The bonfire roared with energy and life as the boys danced, drank, and sang around the flames. You now sat against a stray log, looking at the massive doors when someone sat next to you. Out of the corner of your eye, you see a sandy blonde mop of hair. Newt.
"Hey there, greenie. Are you okay?"
"Y/n." He looked at you confused. "That's my name. Y/n. Don't tell the others. I'm not ready for that." Newt still remained quiet.
"Sorry, it's just a shock that you can talk. I didn't think you could."
"It was overwhelming. Earlier, I mean."
He handed you a jar of brown liquid. "Here. Liquid courage, as Mihno calls it."
You put the jar to your lips, but once the foul liquid enters your mouth, you immediately spat it back out. He started laughing at your reaction. "Disgusting. I'm never drinking that again."
His laughter died down. "You'll get used to it, greenie. Now come on, what are you doing moping over here when the party is over there, love?"
"Im not moping. And besides, what if I don't want this thing to be about me?"
"Well, Y/n, if you don't want the bonfire to be about you, then you'll have to wait a whole month."
"What's out there? Why was I shoved out of the way for trying to look inside?"
"Gally is a tough cookie. Hard and mean on the outside but soft and sweet on the inside when you get to know him. He was just trying to keep you safe. Trust me, the maze is a dangerous place. Now, come on. Up ya get. Quite moping -"
"Not moping."
"We're going over to the bonfire."
Hesitatantly, you got up and followed him to the bonfire. Newt pointed out all the keepers and the jobs they did.
"Hey, greenie! Wanna fight?!" Gally stood in the centre of a ring, a fighting ring you presumed, looking at you with a pointed glare. "Or are you too chicken to do it?"
"I knocked you out within the 1st ten seconds of seeing you. Do you really think you're gonna beat me in a fight?" A lot of gasps and oohs were heard around the bonfire, probably surprised you can talk or of your quick response.
Gally looked down at his feet, then back up at you. "Come here, greenie." You walked up to him with no expression on your face. He then shoved you hard to the ground. "Get up, greenie! Come on, don't ya wanna fight?!" Gally picked you up by your shirt, the punched you across the face. Once you were down, he kicked you in the stomach as well. Just as you were about to get up, Gally kicked you in the same place just for good measure. "Stay down, greenie!" He was just about to walk away when you suddenly got up, with struggle, and ran for him, jumping behind him and wrapping your legs around his waist and arms around his neck.
(Like this ^^. Skip to 0.23 seconds if you want to see the movement but you csn watch the whole thing if you want.)"That was not a very wise move. You messed with the wrong person." He started slapping your arm in hopes you would let go, and you did. Gally started rubbing his throat to ease the pain while you brushed the dirt off your clothes. "So, wanna fight Gally?" He frantically shook his head no. You just smirked and walked away, leaving everyone gobsmacked. No one has ever beat Gally in a fight before. Newt was the first to break the silence. "Bloody hell, she's cool."
Sorry, this one is shorter than the rest (I think). If you have any chapter suggestions (I have writers block), then pls lmk. Love ya 3,000
