chapter 1

YOUR POV

One week. That's how long I've been here. A week and no memories from before. I was starting to get a little frustrated and impatient by it. All I wanted was to remember one simple thing. Just anything besides my stupid name. I'm wandering aimlessly in the halls, forcing my brain to remember when I bump into a girl I haven't met before, making her drop the stack of books in her hands.

"I'm so sorry!" I exclaimed, falling to my hands and knees to help pick up her books.

"It's okay," she said as she hurriedly tried to pick up her books. I looked up at her. She was small and had her brown hair pulled back into a bun.

"We haven't met before," I said. "I'm Y/N." I reach my hand out for her to shake but she ignores it, continuing to pick up her books in a hurry. She grabs the books in my hands and stands up.

"I'm sorry," she said, avoiding eye contact. "I have to go." She looked down at the ground and ran away. That was rude. She could've at least told me her name. I continued walking, looking around at all the doors that led to other rooms.

"Y/N!" I heard someone call from behind me. I turned around to see Xena running up to me. "There you are! I've been looking everywhere for you!" She linked her arm in mine and walked with me. She was the only one I had become friends with. I haven't met many of the other girls.

"Why were you looking for me?" I asked, eyeing her.

"I was lonely," she said. "I was never close with the other girls. Only Rachel." She looked at the ground, frowning. I grab her hand and together we walk to the cafeteria.

We sit down at our usual table and begin eating when a girl who I have never met before walk in. She walks over to a group of other girls and exchange a few words before she looks over at me.

"Who is that?" I asked Xena.

She looked over at who I was looking at and said, "that's Harriett. Her and Sonya were the leaders of our maze and they still are here." She takes a bite of her salad as Harriet approaches us.

"Hi," she said to me. "We never met before. I'm Harriet."

"I'm Y/N," I said shaking her hand.

"I've heard so much about you," she smiled at me. "How you were shot by one of your friends who was being controlled, just like our friend. Only you survived. It's nice meeting you. I hope we can talk more. I would like to hear all about the other maze." She smiled at me once more before leaving.

"She's nice," I said, when I notice the rude girl I ran into earlier sitting alone at a table. I'm about to get up to sit with her when a middle-aged man speaks up.

"Good evening ladies!" he yelled, trying to get everyone to be quiet. He has two soldiers on each side of him, both carrying odd-looking guns. He has short hair that is on the verge of turning gray and has a face that reminds me of a rat. He continues talking when we quiet down. "Since this is our first-time meeting, my name is Janson. I work with the group that helped rescue you and I oversee your safety. I'm sure you all have many questions and we will do our best in giving you those answers. In the meantime, rest and enjoy your time here." He walked out of the room with the two soldiers following behind.

"That guy is weirdly hot," Xena mumbled in my ear and I laughed.
