If you ain't scared you ain't human. Alby- The Maze Runner
Gracie's P.O.V
Darkness.
All around me surrounding me like a thick blanket. Suffocating me.
Where am I ?
Who am I ?
why am I here ?
These and many more questions bounce around my head. Suddenly I am jolted, my cage imprisonment makes a sickening wirring noise and starts moving upwards at an increasingly high speed.
"HELP SOMEONE HELP ME! " My voice sounding scratchy likeI hadn't spoken in weeks. Just as i reach the top the cage stops, causing me to fall down and on to something sharp.
A knife
The cut on my hand looks small but i can feel that it's deep.
Whoosh.
The cage doors are ripped open
sunlight pours in forcing me to shield my eyes. Next thing I know a boy around the age of 15 jumps in. Acting quickly i pick up the knife and point it towards him.
"Whoa there greenie I'm not gonna hurt you just put the knife down." Says the boy. For some odd reason I feel safe with him and lower the knife. He hesitantly steps closer. This time I get to have a closer look at him. He has light brown almost blonde hair, and warm and caring brown eyes. He looks really skinny but still muscly at the same time. He's gouges and hot. Coming out of my trance I begin to blush. Finally looking at his face I blush more realising he's doing the same thing.
"Holy klunk, your a - a shucking girl?" He looks at me weirdly. Klunk? Shucking ? I don't understand these words.
Just as I'm about to ask three other boys appear, they look about the same age as the first. The first one i look at is tall as well but with ginger hair and funny eyebrows, he is holding a hammer in his hand. The second one is around the same height but is Asian and has muscly arms. The last one is slightly taller than the rest and he is radiating power off him. He is obviously the leader. The all stare at me with the same shocked expression.
"Where am I ?" The words fly out of my mouth before I can stop them. Looking at the brown headed boy for an answer.
Coming out of their shocked expressions he answers.
Hi my name is Newt, and you my love are in the glade. Guys help me get her out she's hurt."
Looking down at my hand I had forgotten all about it until now. All of the boys rush over and pull me out making me cry out in pain.
" Careful you shanks cant you see she's already in pain." Newt yells.

I give him a thankful look and he smiles back. I wince when I feel something cold being poured on my cut.
"Now I know you have a lot of questions but lets get you fixed up then we will answer as much as we can. OK ?" There leader speaks to me. I simply node my head. When I look at my hand I can clearly see the cut. It runs from the base of my thumb to my pinkie finger. Eyebrows guy walks up to me with a clean rag and firmly ties it round my hand. The Asian guy looks at me "Are you OK?"
"Yeah I will be fine thank you all. " They all smile at me.
"OK, first things first my name is Alby and I'm the leader around here. The guy standing to my left is Minho," He points to the Asian,"The guy with the eyebrows is Gally, and you have already met Newt over here."Alby starts.
"Where you are is the harder question to answer, we call it the Glade."
"Every month so far an new greenie arrives, this month it's you. Also every week we get sent up supplies like wood, animals, and medical stuff. We don't know who sent us here but we call them the creators." He continues. I finally get a good look around, there are four tall, thick ivy covered walls, there is a medium size forest in one of corners, a small hut stands in another corner and a garden as well. I noticed that the cage i came up in sits directly in the center of it all.
All of the boys look at me curiously waiting for me to speak.
"Why can I not remember anything ?" I asked realising I can't remember, I suddenly start to panic do I have a family ? Friends ? Do they know where I am?
"Whoa there greenie it's okay we all went through this,"Mihno says "none of us remembered anything but our names."
"Speaking of names, do you know yours?" Gally asks
Trying to wrap my head around all of this, I think.
Gracielynn
"My name is Gracielynn." I say. They all share a small smile at me making me smile as well.
"Right well then Gracie, welcome to the Glade." Alby says.
