A/N: I will be out of town for the next two days and will not have Internet. I will try to update but jus in case, here's an early update :)

Avia's P.O.V

Everyone stared at me with wide eyes.

To break the silence, Alby yelled "Aviaaaaaaaaa!" And everyone joined in.

I smiled as they gathered around me, patting me on the back and giving me friendly hugs.

Newt, however, did not.

He stayed behind and grabbed a few empty plates, his limp very noticeable.

I thanked the boys and jogged over to Newt, tapping his shoulder.

"Hmm?" He said, turning around.

"Can I help?" I asked, not waiting for an answer before taking the plates from his hands.

"Thanks." He said blankly, taking a seat.

I nodded and took the plates to the kitchen, set them down, and came back to Newt.

I sat next to him and rested my elbows back on the log, crossing my feet.

"So, Newt. Newtster. The Newt Ma-"

"I don't like you. Why do you like me so much? I met you this morning and you act like I've known you my whole life." He said bluntly. No filter.

Avia was taken back by his words.

"I-I just wanted to know what happened to your leg.." She shrugged.

Anger flashed in Newt's eyes.

"Nothing that concerns you."

And with that he got up and limped away.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I laid in my hammock, the light breeze making it swing. I had a nice view of the sky which was relaxing.

But, everything else, was not.

I had just appeared in a cage and bam, I'm in the Glade.

I only knew my name and what I looked like.

I didn't know my family, (if I even had one), my birthday, why I was here, and so much more that hurt my head just to think about it.

I rolled onto my left side, staring at the trees.

I tried to relax, but failed when a twig snapped.

I sat up as fast as I could without falling out of the hammock and looked around me.

"Who is it?!" I asked out loud.

No answer.

Then voices came audible, but not enough that I could tell who it was.

Along with the voices came light.

"He hasn't come back!"

"Why hadnt you noticed?"

"How could you be so stupid?"

"Is he going to make it back?"

I got up, walking out to see what was going on.

"Hey!" I yelled in attempt to get their attention.

Nope.

I whistled, earning everyone's attention.

"What's going on?" I asked.

"Minho didn't make it back, and all these shanks were too busy focused on the new girl to realize he's missing." Said Gally angrily.

I furrowed my eyebrows.

"Soooo you're saying this is my fault?" I asked.

He shrugged.

I rolled my eyes.

"The girl hasn't done anything wrong, calm down." Said Newt. I mentally thanked him.

"So why are we awake now? The doors don't open til the sun rises. What are we gonna do about it now?" I asked.

Everyone went silent, as if realizing I had a point.

"The shank's right." Gally said.

I'm not a shank. Shut up.

"Gally. Gather a few and go check in the Deadheads. Avia, you and Newt come with me to check the Glade." Alby instructed.

I groaned, earning daggers from both Newt and Alby.

We began searching, calling out his name, asking questions, but he didn't answer.

I sighed in frustration and walked to the Deaheads.

I sat against a tree, playing with a fallen leave.

I heard footsteps and leaves rustle.

"Minho?" I asked, hope in my voice.

No answer.

I stood up, dusting off my pants.

"Minho?" I called once more.

A boy jumped out from behind the tree and grabbed my arms, leaning in til he was two inches from my face.

"You killed me!" He screamed.

"This is your fault! I'll kill you. I'll kill you and everyone around the Glade." He said, laughing like he was insane.

He sounded like was crying, but he sounded as if he would rip my skin off right there and then.

I wiggled out of his grip and sprinted out of the trees. I didn't know where to, but all I know is that I had to get away from that.

I stumbled over a stick, causing me to hit someone and send us both to the ground.

"Careful, Greenie." He groaned.

Newt.

I got up quickly and looked around.

"What's wrong? Seen a Griever?" He smirked as he stood up.

I looked back to him and his smirk dropped.

"What happened?" He asked, concern in his voice.

I shook my head and felt warm liquid fall onto my forearm. I was shucking crying.

"He's gonna kill me." I mumbled.

Newt furrowed his eyebrows and looked to the Deadheads.

"No. He won't." He said sternly. "We need to go." He said, grabbing my arm and running to the others.
