Cold. Fear. Excitement. Darkness. You felt odd as you woke up, blurry in fact. Realising you were in a giant metal box, you felt scared. Suddenly, the box started rising. Faster and faster. Until it got to the point there you couldn't take it no more and screamed for help, for anybody.

BAM

It stopped. Slowly some concrete doors open above you. Blinded by the sun, you looked up. Noticing a blond haired boy with sweet brown eyes.

"Bloody hell! It's a girl!" Someone shouted alarmed

"Jesus, calm down Winston!" Another guy shouted

"Sor-ry" must've been Winston 

"Hi greenie," greenie? I'm not greenie. I'm... what was your name? Where were you? Who is- you were snatched from your thoughts as a hand came down to reach you.

"Let's get you out of here, shall we?"

"Yes please," You reply. Wondering what his name was. You look up to see a tall boy, Around 6ft, with crazily arched eyebrows and a strong, intimidating body. He just stared at you. Not knowing what or who you were. Suddenly you were lifted up out of the box and placed on the ground. 

A crowd of 20-30 boys surrounded you, not one was a girl. Sad and afraid you looked for the boy who got you out of the box. A hand was placed on your shoulder. You turned around to see the boy. Relieved it wasn't some creep.

"Hi green bean, I'm newt and this is Alby" he pointed to a darker lad next to him.

"Hi, May I ask a few questions?" You nodded.

"First of all, do you remember your name?" 

"N-No" You stuttered 

"Anything at all, do you remember?"

"No," you sounded panicked "w-why can't I remember anything?"

"Hey relax," he soothed "it's alright, we've all been through this, it's normal"

"NO how is any of this normal? How is being put into a field with a bunch of boys, not remembering anything at all normal?" Your voice was shaky.

"Hey, you'll get your name back in a few days, that's the one thing they let us keep."

"Who is they?" You asked

"That we don't know" replied newt 

"Hey newt, do me a favour, will you? Go get Chuck and ask him to get the greenies things ready? Thanks mate" As newt ran off to find this chuck boy alby explained the rules to you.

RULES:

1 DONT HURT ANOTHER GLADER 

2 EVERYONE DOES THEIR PART

3 NEVER GO INTO THE MAZE

"Maze?" 

"Beyond those walls, is a maze, very dangerous. If you break that rule, or any of them, you'll be punished. Understand?" You nodded. "When Newt comes back, he'll give you the tour" 

"Okay" you said absent mindedly. Studying the walls, searching for a way out.
