"Hey guys what are you doing!? No stop! Stop!" I yell at the screen. The box was moving up. Faster and faster. There's no stopping it now. So I sigh as the first subject in group B, went to group A. "Mrs. Paige is gonna be so mad. " I mumble. Grabbing my notepad I write down what had just happened.

Subject A8: The worker is now, The shadow

November's POV

November. That my name.
I am a girl.
And I have no memories of anything.

I blinked my vision clearing up. Standing I look around to only find out that I was In a box. One that was moving up. And It was moving fast. I look around and see a bunch of tools, supplies. Grabbing a metal rod I attempt to stop the cage. Key word, attempt. Finally the panic sets in as I look at the bright red x at the top realizing that in mere seconds I were to crash into it and die. Die with no memories. Die by myself. Die not knowing what the klunk is going on.

Then I was sent to my knees in an abrupt halt. Am I dying? Then I realize I'm still breathing. Opening my closed eyes I look around to see we have come to a stop. Now, I get out.

I look up and see a long spilt in the concrete roof above the cage and manage to push it open with the same rod I used before. The rest was easy, nothing blocked the cage doors so I easily pushed it open and climbed out.

Where the shuck am I? I was in a field. I was surrounded by... Walls? Concrete walls that stretched around the entire place. Looking up I realize that the sun, wherever it was, was rising. May-

Screech!

I gasp and look up to see a wall opening. Curiosity takes over and I run to the opening. I take a step in only to step out when I hear shriek. Loud, agonizing, and definitely terrifying. Like a someone grieving over a death. Still curious I grab a vine and start climbing.
Up
Up
Up
Then I'm at the top. Testing my balance I stand up fully to see a maze. I was in the middle of a maze.

Now the only question is, How am I getting out?

---

Four months and many trips into the maze later I have given the horrible creatures that have mechanical legs a name. Grievers. I emptied the box out and found things I would need.

Hammock
Clothes
Food
Water
Um girl stuff

And a notebook in which I have been writing down everything I know about the maze. I was about to go on my daily run when I here a loud beeping sound. The box. Why was it beeping? Running over to it, i open it. And there lay a boy. He had dark skin and was slightly buff. He also had supplies around him. Then I realized he held a knife. Sure he was knocked out but they sent someone here to kill me. Fear sets and quickly without thinking I gather all my things. At least all the things I can carry.

Then I run. Run away from him. From the glade, a name I have chosen for the field. From the safety and into the maze.

I was out of breath. I had been running for at least two hours and I had to stop. I laid my things in front of me. 4 knives, 2 swords, 2 bags of food, 3 cartons of water, a hammock, clothes, and a hair brush.

Sighing i gathered all my things in a potato sack I managed to grab in my run and put my supplies in. Night was falling and grievers would be coming so I grabbed a vine and climbed. Attaching my hammock to the vines and hanging my sack i looked down and saw my new home. Then, i went to sleep.
