WICKED......she fought to get away from them, to warn the others......they let her go.......shes......I'm their new expiriment.....

I shaken awake as the metal box I was being shot up in jolted upwards. I gasped and coughed, straining for air, as if I were being drowned. I crouched on my hands and knees. My lungs screamed as the strange box shot upward. Why.....why was I here? Where was I going?

....Who am I?

My head ached as I entered an area of red glowing light and a screeching siren, and then a bright sun as the top of the box opened. My hand shot up to cover my eyes. I couldn't make out the dozens of people surrounding the top of the box, as it shook from a tall teenage boy dropped in. He grabbed my collar and yanked me upwards. 

"Rise and shine, Greenie. Day one.......Holy shank, it's a girl!" The boy exclaimed, pushing me away from one. I heard the people around the top of the box chatter excitedly. As I studied all of them, I noticed one thing. 

Not a single girl.

I heard them say...

"I call dibs!"

"It isn't a girl, it's a feminine guy!"

"You're a feminine guy, slinthead." 

And then one voice rose above the others. "ALL OF YOU SHUT YOUR HOLES!"  The voice was clearly British. "Gally, it isn't a bloody girl, you slint-" The British boy had begun, and then he saw me, which cut him off. The boy was tall, lanky, and blonde. Rather, gorgeouse....

"Alby......ALBY!!!" he yelled. A Broad, dark skinned boy appeared. He was much more muscly than the blonde one. 

"Well, get in there before Gally scares her half to death." The boy who's named I assumed Alby said. Blondie dropped into the box, but sliker and more gentler than the other one had. I backed away from them both. 

"Name's Newt, Greenie." He said, sticking his hand out and walking towards me. I was about to take it, when the boy who I think was called Gally interjected. 

"Are you kidding me, Newt?! You're seriously just gonna-" He was cut off when he swung his hand back, hitting me in the mouth. I fell back, hitting my head on the metal side of the box. I heard a seris of "ohhh"'s from the other spectating boys before I lost consiousness.

************************************************************************************

When I woke up, my palms were sweaty and clamy, and my head ached like no ones business. Blondie was talking to a boy about his height in the corner. I sat up slowly with a hand to my head. 

"Newt, right?" I moaned. Now that I talked, I actually noticed a bit of an accent in my own voice. He looked at the other boy, and then walked over to me. 

"Yeah. Sorry about what happened. You must've hit your head pretty hard. You've been out for a few hours. I talked to Gally, he didn't mean it." Newt informed me. 

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, now would you really mind telling me where the hell I am?" I demanded. He jerked his head towards the door, motioning for me to follow him.

I was lead down a creaky staircase and out a door that lead into a giant plantation looking setting. The only peculiar thing was that it was surronded my massive concrete walls. Newt waited a minuet, then spoke.

"You stay here, I'm going to get Alby. Don't. Move." He said. 

I did as I was told and sat down on the steps to the house and siged, when I was approached by the boy I now know to be Gally, and a huge group of other boys. He grabbed my wrist and tugged me up and towards a forest. I tried to tug away.
