Thomas's POV:
I was temporarily deafened as I heard the thunderous sounds of metal doors opening. The change of smell from musty to fresh and crisp was pleasantly welcomed, and I took in a deep breath. With a horrible realisation, I noticed my memory was completely blank. I tried to remember the simplest thing like my name, but still complete blankness. Suddenly, a stocky, angry looking boy jumped down and yanked me to my feet, and I had no words nor actions to respond. "Day one Greenie, rise and shine," he said as he pushed me up into the light.There are roughly 60 boys surrounding me, all of them looking approximately 16 years old. One shorter boy steps forward and motions for a blonde, skinny boy to come forward, and I sweep my eyes past him, then immediately snap them back realising his astounding features. Perfect face, every detail beautiful in its own way. Then, the shorter boy says to the blonde to stay here. " Alright, you shanks, get your butts back your shuckin' jobs," he yells to the other boys. "Newt, stay here, I gonna go find Chuck," he says. Newt. The name strikes me as different and... attractive. "So, Greenie. I'm Newt. Don't worry about your memory, we all bloody woke up the same shuckin' way." He says. He has a beautiful accent that is deep, rough and rusty. "Wh-where am I? What is this place? Why am I here?" I demand. "Wow,wow. Slim it nice and calm there Greenie, not too many questions. They'll all be answered soon enough. And, here comes Chucky," he says in that smooth accent. Then, his place is taken by a short, plump and young boy.
"You'll probably be hungry," was the first thing he says. " I'm Chuck. Don't worry about anything there, Greenie," he says the word before wincing. " For some reason, my mind kept on flickering back to Newt, but was interrupted by Chuck. " I'll take care of you for you first week or two, ok?" He asked " Ummm yeah, sure, thanks." I said. The boy led me to a cosy looking shelter, full of little single beds, and Chuck told me this was the Homestead. "I'll show you where the toilet is and stuff, but Alby will show you around tomorrow." And with that sentence, the same short boy who noted Newt to stay with me came striding over. " The names Alby" he said " Welcome to the glade"
