I woke up feeling like I just drowned. I started coughing up water. 

"What the hell?" I said. "Where am I?"

Then all of the sudden the room that I was in jerked up.  I started breathing heavily mostly because I was scared. I tryed to stand up and look around the room, but it was to dark to see and since the box was moving at a fast speed I couldnt stand up.

Finally the box came to a hault. A loud noise started sounding. 

"What the hell! Help! Anyone!" I yelled.

All of the sudden the ceiling opened. A bright light shined in my face, blinding me. I covered my face with my eyes. Then I heard a loud thud, like something jumped in the room that I was in.

"Woah. What the hell is this?" A boy with a accent said.

My eyes adjusted and I got a better look at him. He was a small skinny boy. He had dirty blonde hair and brown eyes. He was just staring at me.

"Well what the hell is it Newt?" Another boy asked. He had a more manly voice.

"Its....Its a girl" He said. Everyone gasping.

What have they never seen a girl?

"Is she hot?"

"I got dibs"

"Can I show here around"

That was all I heard. 

"Shut up shanks. None of you are going to touch her!" The manly voice spoke. "Newt were sending the rope down. Help her get up."

"Got it."

Then a rope was suddenly tossed into the room. It had a loop at then ed of it. Just big enough to fit feet.

"Come here." Newt said gesturing me to come over to the rope.

I walked over to the rope and put one of my feet in. Then I was pulled up. Once I got out I fell on the ground. My legs felt like jelly. I stood up slowly. Taing in my surroundings. 

Boys, Boys, Boys, oh and more Boys. 

Then I noticed an opening in the wall. This is my chance while they are not looking to run.

I started running as fast as I could towards the opening. I was pretty fast.

I was 20ft away. Im going to make it. I looked behind me and notcied all the boys runnin towards me.

5ft away.

Then all of the sidden I felt a pair of hands wrap around my waist, tackling me to the ground.

"Got you greenie." A boy said. he sat on me as I stuggled to get up.  I looked up at him. He was asian. He has brown eyes and perfect dark hair.

Finally I stopped struggling and just layed there.

"Aye. Good job Minho. You caught the greenie." A dark-skinned, very muscular boy said.

Minho got off me and offered a hand. I ignored his offer and stood up myself. Brushing off the dirt on my clothes.

I was wearing mostly all black. I was wearing black boots, black ripped skinny jeans, a red crop top, and a black leather jacket. I looked pretty hot body and clothes wise.

All of the sudden the dark-skinned boy walked up to me.

"Hey greenie.  The names Alby. You gotta name?"

I tryed to remeber. All of the sudden a name popped in my head. Cleo. 

I finally spoke. "Cleo." I spoke. I had an accent just like Newt. Woah.

"Well nice to meet you Cleo. Welcome to the Glade." Alby said. "We will be giving you the tour tomorrow. For now Newt'll show you to you sleeping quadrants and where we eat. I bet you pretty hungry."

Then all of the sudden my stomach made a noise. 

"Guess thats a yes." Alby said jokingly. I giggled a little.

"Newt!" Alby yelled.

Newt walked over to us.

"Show around the new greenie." Ably said.

"Sure thing."

Alby walked away and  just left me a Newt. Newt started walking and I walked with. He nrought me to the kitchen and introduced me to Frypan. Weird name. Frypan is the chef here in the Glade

I finally got some food. Frypan gave me a plate with meat and potatoes on it. I sat at a table with Newt while I scarfed down my food.

"Well I guess you were hungry greenie." Newt spoke. I nodded.

"Why dont you talk?" He asked. 

I finally gave in and talked to him.

"Well first of all my name, yeah it's not greenie. Its Cleo. And second of all I chose not to talk because I still dont know if I can trust you." I said.

Newt looked a little taken back by my words. He was a little surpirised I talked.

"Well nice to meet you Cleo my name is Ne-" He said but I interupted him

"Newt. Yea I know who you are." I said.

"Dang. Cleo has a little attitude." Newt said. "You and Minho are going to be real good friends."

I smirked.

"Well it's time for bed." Newt said. "Follow me to your sleeping area"

We walked to a little area full of boys sleeping. There was an empty sleeping bag. Newt pointed at it and I picked it up. I moved it over by a tree while Newt watched me. He laughed a little

"What. You have a problem mate?" I asked. I sound alot like Newt. Just in a girly voice.

"Woah. You have an accent like me." Newt said witha  surprised look on his face.

"Yeah. Well night." I said leaning up against the tree closing my eyes.

"Night" Newt replied.

Soon after that I dozed off to sleep.
