Different (The Maze Runner)

Chapter 28

**A/N hey guys! I decided that since it's a Holiday I wanna post an extra chapter. Yes I'll still be doing one tomorrow. :) Happy Thanksgiving! Gobble Gobble!

After a few hours Chuck comes running up to me. "Done with the Greenie."

I nod slightly. "Any name yet?" I wanna address this guy by name but something won't let me say his name.

He shakes his head. "No, not yet. Hopefully soon though."

Zart says "why don't you take a break? You've been working hard for the last few hours."

I nod and turn back to Chuck.

"How you feeling?" He asks.

"So much better," I answer. "A day ago I'd never been sicker, but now I've never felt more alive."

He hugs me and says "I'm glad you're better."

"I'm glad too. You're in my hut from now on, I'll put your hammock in there. I wanna spend time with my little bro now that I'm not comatose."

He laughs and says "I can go do that now if you want."

"Do it when I go back to work."

He nods. "C'mon, I'll introduce you to the Greenie."

I nod and follow him as he leads me over towards the Walls, where there's a guy sitting there with a pillow and a blanket. That's Thomas!

"Hey Greenie," Chuck calls out.

Thomas turns to look at us. He sees me and stares at me for a second, then looks at Chuck. "Yeah?"

"Just wanted to introduce you to my sister quickly. This is Alyssa."

"Alyssa..." he sighs. "Hi I'm... uh..."

I open my mouth to say Thomas but something won't let me. Instead I say "you're Greenie until you get a name back."

He nods and says "well I'm Greenie." He holds out his hand for me to shake.

I shake his hand and say "but a lot of people call me Coyote."

"Why Coyote?"

"Because that's all she remembered at first," Chuck tells him.

I sigh in relief. My little brother came to the rescue. "Yeah, that's all I remembered for a month."

Thomas looks at the both of us, confused yet deep in thought.

"I should probably head back to the Gardens and do some work, I'll see you guys later."

Thomas gives a slight nod, and Chuck quickly hugs me.

I turn and walk back towards the Gardens.
