After the meeting, I exit the building, receiving about a dozen glares, from the swarm of boys who had gathered curiously, as they waited to know what we had discussed. "Shanks" A harsh voice drawed the attention off me, I turn around to Alby bickering with a dark haired boy and Newt.
I didn't wait around for them, so I quickly push through the boys, I look for a place where I can calm my nerves a bit. I spot a stump not far away from the huts, but it will do for now. I quickly walk over, and I sit down, drawing my knees closer to my chest.
I take in the view, as a slight breeze turns into more than a violent one, with a loud rumbling fills the air. I snap my head into the direction, seeing the Tall walls inching closer to each other. They finally sealed, Closing off what ever is behind these ruthless walls, away from my curiosity. I'm trapped. A million of questions flooding through me.
Is this just a dream?
Where am I?
Why am I Here?
Why can't I remember anything?
What's my name?
Why are any of these boys here?
Who is behind this?
I sigh vigorously, and look in front me again. "What's your name?" Newt asks he sits next to me, crossing his legs. I search my mind for an answer, I frown. "It's alright. We will just stick with Greenie for now" He states as he starts plucking grass out in front him. "Greenie?" I ask curiously, "And what does shank and shuck mean?" I furrow my eyebrows, completely irritated by the fact that I know nothing.
"Greenie is the new people in the Glade" He states, I know what the Glade is, I heard a few boys mentioning it earlier and to my curiosity I asked them. "Shank and shuck are words" He continues, as he shifts his gaze to me. I sigh abruptly.
"Tommorow Alby will give you a tour, and after the tour, you'll start with try outs, to see if you have the chops to even work" He says and stands up, He turns to face me. He holds out his hand for me, I think about it at first. A lot of things can go wrong, but what do I have to loose? I accept his hand and He pulls me up to my feet, And he starts walking away. I assume I should follow, so I travel slightly behind him, as I try to catch up. "You don't talk much" He breaks the silence between us, as he fiddles with a few grass left in his hands. "No" I state, finally taking my place next to him.
"Alright" He says, and throws the grass out of his hand. "C'mon, Its supposedly my turn to take care of you, and introduce you to everyone." He states, which I nod to in return.

It's getting darker, around the Glade and I have had a very tiring day. The boys had already started a fire, lighting the night. Newt introduced me to a few boys, who would regularly compliment me in a sarcastic tone. But there were ones who are surprisingly very kind to me. Newt being one of them of course.
He taught me a bit of the Glader slang, and he tried to cheer me up, when he saw me being uncomfortable when a few of the boys mock me.
"Hey cheer up Greenie" Newt says handing me a glass filled with Liquid.
I gulp it down but I instantly spit it out, "What the shuck" I wipe my mouth with back of my hand, and I pass the glass back to Newt."It's Gally's recipe, It's a trade secret" Newt says taking a sip, As he takes a seat next to me. "What you staring at?" He asks as I stare intently at the closed doors. "The doors" I sigh in frustration. As I rub my temples, I feel a hand patting my back, I startle a bit, and instantly move away. "Sorry" He mumbles as he takes another sip from the liquid.
"It's alright" I whisper and claim my seat next to him again, perhaps a bit closer than before. A rumble draws me out of my thoughts. "The maze it's shifting" Newt answers my curiosity, "What?" I ask, as I turn my head to look at him. "Y-you s-said Maze" I stutter out of freight. "Oh shuck, I didn't mean to scare you like that Green bean" He frowned, as he placed the glass next to him, he throws his arm over the log, as he looks behind him.
"It's Alright" I whispered, As I turned to see, what his smiling at. A few boys, are pretending to kiss, I scoff. Without thinking clear, I stand up, and make my way over to them. "Is something wrong?" I ask them, as rage swirls around, messing with my feelings. My heart starts pounding rapidly. "No not at all" The boy replies scratching the back of his neck. A breath travels down my neck, Already knowing its Newt, standing behind me.
"My name's Zart" The boy says holding out his hand for me, I hesitantly take it, and squeeze it. "Just call out my name, if you need a kiss" He says, pressing his lips together and makes noises --- that must resemble kissing noises. I pull him closer in a swift motion, My mouth next to his ear, I could hear his short breathes."Go shuck yourself" I whisper, and pull back, giving him a hard smack on the cheek. He pulls away as he winces, Holding his now red stain cheek, gaining a few chuckles from the rest of the Glade, who was staring at us intently.
"Alright that's enough" Newt says, stepping in between us, before anything else happens. "Shank" Zart mouths to me, and he turns to walk away. My pounding heart had stopped, and a feeling of proud grew over me, as a smirk tugs on the corner of my lips.
