Clint and Jeff appeared. "Hey, you're not allowed here." Minho said Sternly. "We know." Jeff said. "It's the-"
"-Girl!" you said in realization and run out of the map room.

You stop by Chuck who was laughing his ass off. "Chuck, what's going on?" you asked, out of breath. "Girls are awesome." Chuck laughed as he pointed to the tower. You saw a figure moving on the top of it, throwing things at the gladers who crowded the towers. 

"Leave me alone!" you hear the girl say as she's throwing more things of the tower. "I think she and I will be good friends." you chuckle, jogging toward the commotion.

Gally was yelling at her "Hey, throw one more thing and I-ow!" he was hit on the head by something. You laughed at him. "Go away!' you heard the girl yell. "What happened?" you asked. "I don't think she likes us very much." said Newt, who was hiding under a board with Winston. You burst out laughing at them. 

"-What do you want from me?" the girl yelled as she threw more stuff off the tower. "We just wanna talk!" you hear Thomas say. "I'm warning you!"the girl threw even more stuff. You kinda got tired of laughing and started to get annoyed. You weren't even this stubborn when you got the the Glade and figured out it was nothing but boys. 
"Hey, it's Thomas!" Thomas yelled.
That got the girl's attention and she stopped throwing stuff. She popped her head over the tower, a mop of blackish brown hair covering most of her face. 
"I'm gonna come up okay?" Thomas warned.

The girl's figure backed away from the edge. "Do you want me to go up with you?" you ask Thomas. "She may be a little more comfortable with the presence of another girl."
"No, it's okay, I got this." Thomas reassured you as he headed up the tower.

Once you see him reach the top. You hear only what seemed like a muffled over conversation. "What's going on up there?" Gally asked.
"Is she coming down?" You and Newt say in unison.
Thomas peaked his head over the tower. "Um, just give us a second, okay?" said Thomas.
"All right, come on." said Newt.
"Is this what all girls are like?" Frypan asked. You punched his arm, saying "Yep."

Everyone except you left the tower. You wanted to meet this mysterious girl and see if she knew anything, hence her saying Thomas's name in her sleep. 
You got a little impatient and started climbing the tower. 
"-Hey guys." you say once you reached the top. The girl got startled and backed up in surprise.
"Y/N, what are you-" Thomas started, but you cut him off.
"-Good to have another girl here. I need someone to talk to about my girl problems. Boys just don't listen that well." you smirk.

"Who are you?" the girl asked, raising an eyebrow. "The name's Y/N, I'm the Den Mother here. I have a lot of tiring jobs. But, they never get old. Otherwise I'd gotten some grey hairs in this cob-webbed mess."
The girl smiled a bit and let out a slight chuckle. Thomas looked almost appalled by your interruption. 
"I'm Teresa." the girl said. "What do you mean another girl? Are we the only ones?" the girl, Teresa asked. "Yep." you sigh. "No one knows why. What were you guys talking about?" you take a seat next to Teresa. 
"What she remembered." Thomas replied, annoyed. You made eye contact with Teresa's sky blue eyes.  "What do you remember?" you asked innocently.

"I remember water, feeling like I was drowning.-"
You thought back to when you felt the water in Teresa's lungs when you checked her up. 
"-These faces staring at me. And this woman's voice saying the same thing over and over."
"-Wicked is good." Thomas quoted. You and Teresa look at him. "Ever since I got here, I've had these dreams. Well, I thought they were dreams. You, both of you were there." 

Something in your mind snapped. "The same thing happened to me to! It had me, Newt, Justin, Minho, Frypan, and you two. I remember now!"
"What does it mean?" Teresa asked. "I don't know. We just get pieces." Thomas replied. 
"-Like the gadget inside the Griever, the dreams. I think those letters on the gadget is an acronym of something. WCKD is what they use to help piece together the puzzle."

Teresa took something out of her pocket. "These were in my pocket when I came up." Teresa handed the objects to you. There were two of them. They were syringes. There was a blue liquid floating behind a small glass, beside it were the letter WCKD. "There it is again, the letters." you said, handing the syringes to Thomas. 
"W.C.K.D. Wicked is good." Thomas mumbled. 

"What if we were sent here for a reason?" Teresa twiddled her thumbs. "That's what I said!" you say in agreement. 

Thomas looked at you and Teresa as if he realized something.
"Alby."
