The Changer

I Think I Might Like It Here

Newt's P.O.V:

I watched in awe as the new Greenie, Sienna, ran lap after lap around the Homestead. It wasn't until the rest of the runners had come back that I realized how long she had been running for. It was then that Minho and Alby walk up to me, pulling me out of my thoughts, "What do you think of the Greenie Newt?" Minho asked. I shrugged, "She's an independent one, that's for sure." Alby nodded, "Who do you think should give her the tour?" I thought for a moment and answered with, "How about you Minho?" He shrugged and seemed to pause for a moment to think about it, "Maybe... She does seem like runner material." As soon as the words flowed out of Minho's mouth, Sienna stopped running and walked up to the three of us. Her long brown hair was almost drenched in sweat along with some areas of  her deep blue t-shirt and black shorts that went down to her knees. "Hi... I'm Sienna." She squeaks out as she stops in front of us. I smiled, "I'm Newt, this is Alby and Minho." I pointed to them as I introduced them. Minho took a step forward, "I'll be giving you a tour of the Glade." Sienna gave a small smile, "So that's what this place is called?" Minho nodded and lead Sienna towards the Homestead. Before Sienna left my sight, I saw her light hazel eyes almost flash a purple color for a split moment. What the shuck was that? I shrugged the thought off as quickly as it came to me. Eyes couldn't be purple, the heat must just be getting to me. I gave a small wave to Alby and went to go check up on the other runners who had just arrived from the maze.

Sienna's P.O.V:

I followed Minho throughout the entire Glade, gazing in slight awe as I had only seen this place from the perimeter from my runs. It was then that I bumped straight into one of the "Gladers" as Minho called them. The boy was taller than me by a foot or so and had dirty blonde hair. He sneered as he got up from the ground, "Watch where you're going shank!" I gulped, "I'm sorry. I wasn't looking where I was going." He rolled his eyes, "Obviously. I'm Gally, the keeper of the builders. Who are you Greenie?" Minho then sees my predicament and trots over to me, "Gally, this is Sienna. She's the new Greenie." Gally's stare seemed to bore holes into Minho's skull, "I wasn't asking you Minho. I was asking her." I nodded at Minho, "It's okay Minho," I turned back to Gally, "I'm Sienna." He smiled slightly but trudged off as soon as he saw one boy doing something wrong with a building project behind us. Minho gaped and I raised an eyebrow, "What?"
"Nobody, and I mean nobody, has ever prevented Gally from beating the klunk out of someone. Let alone smile for a split second." Minho answered as we continued the tour of the Glade. I nodded absently as I watched Gally scolding one of his fellow Builders about a minimal mistake that he had made. The sun had began to set as we had finished off the little tour about the Glade. Minho shrugged, "Well, that's about everything you'll need to know for now Sienna. We'll start testing you for jobs tomorrow. Frypan is about done with dinner so you might want to head there afterwards." I smiled as I nodded, "Thanks Minho. I'll see you later then." He smiled back as he ran off, "Good that." I had a feeling that I was going to like living in the Glade for a while.
