Screech
My eyes shot open as I felt water rising through my throat. I swiftly turned and started coughing up all the water. Even though it was pitch black I could still see the tiny specks of red coming from my mouth. I grip onto the wired ground.

Wait. Why is it wired? Where am I? Am I trapped? Where am I? Where did I come from? Who am I? Wait. WHAT IS MY OWN NAME? Fuck this is not good.

I shot up, hitting my head on the caged roof, in panic. I felt a wave of nausea come over me as I fell unconscious.

My eyes fluttered open as a bright light pierced me. My breathing picked up as I scurried to the closest corner. I shaded my eyes with my sweaty hand and glanced towards the sky. I saw around fifty people
staring down at me.

Wait, fifty boys. Where are the girls?

I looked around desperately trying to lay my eyes on a girl but I was unsuccessful.
'Newt, go get him.' I heard someone say from above.
The wired door opened as a boy jumped down causing the cage to shake a little. He walked up to meet and squatted down. He was slim but muscular and quite tall, with sandy blonde hair.

'Who are you?' I asked the boy in an irritated tone.
'Newt? What do you see?' said a voice above

The boy looked up completely ignoring my question and instead answered the other one.

'It's a girl' said who I am assuming is now Newt.

The boys started leaning over the box looking at me like they haven't seen a girl in their life.

'My prayers have been answered'
'She's hot'
'She's pretty'
'I CALL DIBS'
'You can't dibs her Adam'

I felt my blood boil. My confusion disappeared and was replaced with anger. How can they talk about me like that? Like I was a piece of meat. Like I was an object. I felt my first curl into a ball.

'SHUT THE FUCK UP ALL OF YOU. I AM NOT SOME OBJECT THAT YOU CAN DIBS SO STOP LOOKING AT ME LIKE I AM YOUR NEXT FUCKING MEAL!! YOU GOT THAT DICKHEADS!! NOW SOMEONE TELL ME WHERE THE FUCK I AM!' I screamed.

I was shocked by my own screaming voice, but happy with the outcome as all the boys looked down at the floor sheepishly.

'Back to work you slintheads!' yelled someone, his voice was full of authority.

The crowd quickly dispersed as a muscular dark skinned guy came into my view. I figured this guy was their leader.

'Here let me help you out' he voiced while extending his hand

I ignored him instead, pulling myself out of the cage.

'Welcome to the Glade, Greenie' he stated
