This story doesn't have a happy ending; Or at least, that's what Athena believes.
From waking up with no memories to surviving as the only girl in the Glade, Athena thought she had experienced the worst of it. But when an annoyingly persistent greenie refuses to leave her alone, Athena is forced to face the idea that maybe she hasn't forgotten everything.
And she's not so sure that's a good thing.

The Misfire:Book 1 (Newt || A TMR Fanfiction)
To say that the Gladers were extremely confused once they realized who was sent up in the lift this time, was a complete exaggeration. The gladers disregarded any suspicions with your arrival, as they thought you were just another mouth to feed. After all, YOU were only the 2nd girl to be delivered into the Glade. Much like everyone else, you were just as confused and lost. With no memory before waking up in that box, the only clue to all this chaos was a vague writing in your arm, no knowledge who wrote it and what it exactly meant. In this seemingly hopeless place, will your arrival make a difference? Or will you just make things even worse? [NEWTXREADER] -currently editing the entire fic as of 2022 since I have plans on changing into Newt x OC. Not sure though. 📍A/N: This fanfiction is more likely to stay true to the movie than the movie was to the books.Complete
