Not just a Girl || Newt

Chapter 27

The room was like their own Med-jack hut. Everyone got a doctor and they took us to different stations. They pulled Teresa in a corner and closed the curtains. Minho was checked for his physics, so he was on the treadmill. Dude has been running his whole life and now he still has to..

They directed me towards a room like Teresa's and also closed the curtains.

"Please lay down."

I went to lay down on the hospital bed and they walked up towards me with a needle. I shifted in my place.

"Don't worry, we have to test your blood for infections and pregnancy's."

My eyes grew wide at the last part.

"I didn't-" I shifted uncomfortably. "I didn't have sex with anyone there."

The female doctor nodded at me, but still took my blood. She also put something on my burn which was a big relief. She gave me different shot, telling 'it is for all the vitamins you didn't have in the Maze'.

"Okay all good." She opened the curtain.

I was directed towards another room. It was overwhelming to say the least. Kids talking loudly and eating. It was identical to the first room we were when we came in. I saw everyone sitting at one table and notice that Teresa wasn't one of them.

I just shrugged my shoulders.

I walked towards my group and notice them talking to some guy.

"How long have you been here?" Newt questioned the stranger.

"2 days now." He nodded his head towards a boy in the corner. "He has been here for over a week."

I followed his eyes and saw a boy sitting alone with his hood up. I took an interest in him. I don't trust this place, I all find it very confusing that they got to us at the end of our escape room.

I directed my path towards the boy, getting confused looks by everyone else.

I sat in front of him, which made him look up.

"I am Cassie." I held up my hand for a sake.

"Aris." He simply said, his eyes scanning over my face.

"I heard you have been here a week." He nodded at me to confirm it. "I am a very observant person, you don't trust this place, do you?"

He looked around us, before giving me another nod.

"Is this place to be trusted?" I questioned him again.

He opened his mouth to answer me, but it was disturbed by a figure sitting next to me.

"Hello gorgeous." I heard a male voice saying in my ear.

I wanted to gag at him already. I kept my eyes on Aris.

"Please sir, we are having a conversation." I told the guy that I still not looked at.

"We can also have a conversation somewhere private if you would like." I felt his hand on my leg, making my muscles contract. "I am way better than this freak."

"Get you hand off me please." With my left hand I grabbed Aris' knife that did not go unnoticed by him. I saw his lip even curve up a little bit.

"I know you like it." The guys whispered in my ear.

"I would stop if I were you, dude." I heard Aris mumble very softly, making me look at him in confusion, but I heard another voice behind me.

"I wouldn't provoke her if I were you." Newt's accent filled my ears from behind me, but it didn't turn around.

The guy did, which was a big mistake for him.

"And why is that?" He questioned Newt.

I grabbed him by his dark black hair and pulled his head up towards the ceiling. With my other hand I pushed the knife against his throat. He instantly stiffened when he felt the cold knife. I saw a small drop of blood rolling down his neck.

"Because she has a very bad temper." Newt told the guy with a smile.

"Get your creepy ass fingers away from me or I will cut them off." I told him in a low voice. I pushed him away, he instantly got up and ran towards his own group.

"You remind me of someone." I heard a voice from behind me. I turned back around towards Aris. I lifted up my eyebrows at him.

"Her name is Sonya, one fighter is she. You would've been great friends, even best friends." A smile creeped up on his face. His eyes traveling past me. "She also has that same accent as that guy."

I knew he meant Newt, not many people have an accent like him or that I know off.

"Where is she?" I questioned him.

"I don't know." He simply said and his eyes casted downwards.

I got up from the chair and started walking back to our group. Chuck was happily feasting on some steak and beans which made me smile.

I heard they were still talking about Aris so I silently listened to them.

"He really was the only guy in a Maze full of girls." Minho questioned the guy in front of them.

"Lucky." Newt said, while taking a seat next to me.

I gave him a disgusting look which he noticed.

"Wha- no- I- uhm." I just tolled my eyes at him.

Boys.

I heard doors open up from the other side of the room. I saw Janson walk through them with at least three guards next to him.

"Hello everyone!" He started. "You all know what is about to happen. When I call out your name, please come up and stand in a line. Your lives will be about to begin."

Everyone started cheering when the names were being called. Metal cups banging against the table, making more noice.

Eventually 8 kids stood in a straight line against the wall, all having a smile plastered on their faces. Janson closed his little clipboard, his eyes traveling over the teenagers.

Until they found mine. A smile formed on his face.

"And Cassieopeia."
