I shielded my eyes, the light blinding me as the metal crate opened. A blonde haired boy hopped in. He stopped and stared at me, then blinked and looked back up.

"It's... a girl?"

I shifted my gaze to the people around the crate. They were all boys.

"Where am I?" 

My voice... I realized that I couldn't remember anything.  

"This is the Glade." the blonde haired boy answered.

"Why is a girl here?" a boy in the crowd spat.

I glared at him.

"I know this might sound funny but, what do I look like?" I asked.

The boy stared at me for a minute.

"You have hair like mine. But, it's longer... to your shoulders. Um... You have brown eyes... and you're wearing black leggings and a red shirt... uh and a purple jacket... red boots... You look like you're 13 or 14..." he stuttered.

"Okay." I mumbled.

He reached his hand down and I grabbed it. He pulled me up and I smiled.

"I'm Newt, by the way. Don't worry if you can't remember your name, you'll get it back in-"

"Florence. My name is Florence." I said. 

It was the only thing I could remember.

Newt raised his eyebrows. 

"What?" I cocked my head.

"Well, usually, you remember your name after a few days..." he answered.

 I shrugged and climbed out of the crate.

"A girl, huh?"

I looked up at a guy with black hair.

"The name's Alby. I'm in charge around here." he said, sticking his hand out to me.

I squinted up at him, and shook his hand.

"Florence." I looked down.

"Welcome to the Glade."

I turned and there was another boy. He had brown hair.

"Thomas." he smiled.

"Florence..." I said.

"Hey Florie! I'll show you around."

We all turned around and saw Newt walking over to us.

I turned back to the other guys and bid them farewell.

"Hey, Newt." I said.

"Hey, Florie." he answered.

I smiled. I liked the name Florie, but only when Newt said it.
