For the third time this month, Newt was sitting uncomfortably inside the pit, punished for the same crime. Three times he has been taken from the Med-hut and straight to the cell that he had become so accustomed to now. And it was always my fault.
Boys were harsh, rude, and many times sexist, these traits magnified since they don't have their memories. But Newt wasn't having it, he was fed up with the actions of the boys and demanded for it stop, only he did it in a violent way that Alby wasn't okay with.
He would attack any boy who he heard was making any kind of negative comments about me, punching the boy until his nose cracked and screaming at him till his throat was raw. He was Second in Command, so the first two times he had a nights sentence to the pit, but not the third.
"This is the last straw," Alby announced from the head of the room. He called a Keeper's meeting at the council hall to discuss what has been going on with Newt. I was only allowed in the room since I was the only girl and they figured a girl's opinion would be good. "He has done this three times and almost killed two gladers. That Builder's just lucky we can pop his nose back into place."
The Keepers in the room were mostly quiet through the whole meeting, all of them with mixed thoughts. Some agreed that Newt had taken it too far, since all of the boys he hurt had to be kept at least one night with the Med-jacks, but some argued that he was right in keeping the rude boys from saying what they were saying.
"I didn't want it to come to this," Alby sighed, rubbing his forehead as if he felt a migraine coming on, "but he left me with no other choice." Alby didn't say the word, but he glanced over at the row of poles lined against the back wall.
"No! You can't do this!" Alby sent me a stern look, telling me to shut up before I get myself into trouble. He was the leader and what he says, goes. But I'll be damned if I let them do this to Newt without some sort of fight.
"He was just protecting me! You hear what the boys say about me, what they do to me! They don't respect me as another glader and Newt is fixing that!"
"Newt is beating up any guy who says anything about you!" Alby yelled, pointing his index finger at me as he made a few large steps towards me. "He's hurt three of our boys, nearly to death, and that is not allowed here! Our rules are to never harm another glader and he has done that many times. I can't keep letting this slide just because he's being your protective boyfriend!" The room was so silent, you could hear a pin drop. The other boys were staring between Alby and I like they were figuring out who's side they wanted to be on, and all of them chose Alby.
Alby turned around and added to the space between us with his back turned. "Keep her away until it's done. I don't want to see her until the doors closed." The boys hesitated but latched onto my upper arms to pull me out of the room and away from the center of the glade.
"Minho! Let go of me!" I thrashed around in Minho and Winston's grips as they dragged me towards the woods. Both of them kept their eyes anywhere but on me with solemn expressions on their faces.
"I'm sorry, (Y/N), but this has to happen," Winston said and never uttered another word. They stopped when we reached the entrance to the Runners hut where I'm assuming they'll keep me locked until the doors finally close. Minho sat in a chair pressed against the door, so that my only exit was blocked by his body.
