The Maze Trials: A Gally Fanfiction

Chapter Three

"Light it up!" Alby shouted to a few other boys.

All of them tossed their burning sticks on to the bonfire. It instantly erupted into flames. It was a pretty cool thing to witness. Everyone shouted and cheered. I walked with Newt. He wanted to introduce me to a few people.

"This is Clint and that's Jeff. They're the Med-Jacks." Newt pointed to two boys chatting.

Both Clint and Jeff smiled and waved at me. I returned the greeting.

"They spend most of their time bandaging up the slicers." Newt chuckled.

We walked a few more feet to a small group of boys standing and sitting around one of the logs. 

"Over here is the slicers. Winston is the keeper of the slicers." Newt pointed at one of the boys in the group.

Winston smiled and nodded towards me. I noticed the quick once over he gave me before turning back to the other boys around him.

"The builders are over there." He pointed to a small group of tougher looking boys.

"You already met Gally. He's the keeper of the builders." Newt pointed at the angry boy.

Gally glanced up like he heard his name. His eyes found mine. His stare lingered for a moment. Nothing in his expression told me what he was thinking.

"Then there's the farmers. I'm one of them but that silent broody guy over there is Zart the keeper of the farmers." He pointed to a boy standing alone watching the others.

He walked around some of the logs closer to the bonfire. There was four boys standing by the fire.

"Those guys are the runners." Newt said a little quieter.

"Minho!" He shouted suddenly.

One of the runners turned quickly. Newt waved him over. He jogged over to us stopping in front of me. Before Newt could say anything else the boy smiled extending his hand to me.

"I'm Minho" He said with his large grin still in place.

He was cute I'll give him that. He had a charming smile. He definitely looked like someone who worked out every day. He had broad shoulders, strong and toned looking biceps, and his pecks popped out just enough for me to tell he was probably well toned under that shirt as well.

"Pleasure to meet you Minho." I smiled batting my eyes at the boy.

He smirked as his eyes drifted down my body slowly then back up to my face. These boys really aren't shy. Minho peered around me for a moment before throwing his arm over my shoulder and turning me back towards the crowd of boys.

"Come on greenie you're gonna want to watch this." He chuckled.

We walked towards one of the logs. Before I got the chance to sit Minho, still with his arm draped over my shoulder, pulled me towards the crowd of boys that were forming a circle. In the center of that circle was the keeper of the builders. Gally stood smiling wickedly pointing at different boys. I had to admit the genuine smile on Gally's face made him look even more attractive.

He turned in the circle until he was facing me. His eyes flicked to Minho and the runner's arm that was draped over me. Something flashed in Gally's eyes before he smirked.

"Minho" Gally said nodding to the boy.

"Really Gally?" Minho chuckled.

Gally lifted his arms as if to say 'bring it on' or 'come and get it'. Were they about to fight? What on earth is going on?
