Becca

I wake up and look around, I'm moving upwards in some sort of crate. I'm confused and lost.

What happened? Where'sThomas? Thomas!

I look around in the dark but I don't see anything with the little flashed of red light.

"Thomas?" I whisper and I get no answer.

The crate comes to a sudden stop causing me to to fall down. The top opens and a burning bright light stings my eyes, causing me to cover them.

Someone jumps into the box, crate thing causing it to shake. Fear of falling back down into the blackness below.

"Becca? Are you alright?" I hear a familiar voice, Thomas.

I uncover my eyes and see Thomas and I hug him. The box starts to sway again and I cling to him. He chuckles a bit.

"Let's get you out of here. I have a lot to explain." He says and hangs is head a bit.

I get out and see walls, stone walls surrounding us. Then the trees, grass, huts, gardens, buildings and so much more. Like a living quarters that was bulit from scratch over a course of years.

Where am I?

"Becca this is the Glade, I'll explain everything in a second. Follow me." Thomas said and I did.

We got away from the group of people that were surrounding us. Some people I recognized, like Dylan, Will, Dex, Kaya, Ki Hong, Blake, but others I didn't have a clue.

Thomas and I ended up at a shack that looked like I was about to fall down any second. He lead me up the steps and we were in a room with a bed and a chair. I sat on the bed and he in the chair.

"Becca I don't want you to get mad at anything I say please,"

I nod my head, just wanting answers.

"Becca we are in a place called the Glade. You said I was gone for 13 years, well I was kidnapped by people called WICKED. They put us here as a test, so was could stop this new disease called the flare from happening. Not only did they take us from our families and left us to suffer from a broken heart, but they took our shadows and made them evil and make sure we stay in this shuck place, plus these creaters called grivers. The shadow is what took us back here. One night they wiped our memories and the next moment we were on a set of a movie, all of us. You were on my mind the whole time I was in this place. We have been looking for a way out of this test and maybe we will make it because they let us out and see that everyone we cared about was okay, the people they didn't kill." He trails off at the end.

"So you're saying were trapped here?" I say quietly and my heart breaks.

"Yes." He says, his head hanging low.

"Why am I here?! I have nothing to do with this! Why didn't you tell me?" I'm upset, scared and stunned.

"Becca just let me explain." Thomas begs.

"You had time to do that." I say softly and walk out of the room and down the steps and out the shack.

I don't know where to go so I go into the woods. I sit there and dont even notice the tears streaming down my face. Someone is walking in the woods, Dylan.

"Hey Bec, you alright?" He asks and puts a comforting arm around me.

"How did you do it? Be away from Aly, you didn't bring her here too did you?" I ask and he sighs.

"I had to, or they were going to kill her, the shadows. That's why you're here, why Thomas brought you here. He was trying to protect you." Dylan says.

I feel like someone hit me in the face with a shovel. That's why I'm here because he loved me too much to lose me.

"Oh Dylan what did I do?" I sigh and burry my face in my arms.

"Just talk to him." He says and gets up and walks off.

I nod to myself and go to find Thomas. I need to apologize. I go back to where he took me to talk and I saw that thing. The black thing floating in the room and Thomas was yelling at it. And it was talking back to him.
