Chapter 1
I am soaking. I'm unsure if it's the water that is making me shiver, it might be the fear. I am hurled upwards and I slam my head off the metal floor. I just lie there. Occasionally, I get threw around a little, but I am to numb to feel it. Minuets. Hours. Years maybe, pass and nothing changes. I decide to look in the boxes around me. it's hard to see what is in the boxes but I do spot something strange. A long-pointed blade. I can hardly see what's around me, so I take the knife and give up trying to see anything else. I don't have clue how long after it is but the (what seems to be an elevator of some kind) starts to shake. My eyes suddenly burn. I shield them instinctively and realise that it's just daylight. I slowly remove my arm and open my eyes. A group of boys are huddling over me when one drops down into the container. "what is it newt." I hear an accusing voice call from up above me. The boy staring down at me must be newt. He has long blonde hair just touching his shoulders. he has hazel eyes and soft pale skin. "it's a girl." He says in husky British accent.
"well spotted." I add plainly. Chatter erupts from the group of boys above me and another drops into the box. He takes one step towards me and I suddenly remember my knife. I pull out my knife and warn him off with a glare. "gally back off" the British boy calls from behind. Gally holds up his arms in defence and climbs out the metal box. Newt crouches down and steps towards me. "we're not here to hurt you love, just put the knife down." I relax the knife and he uses two fingers to pull it out my hand. "see," he says calmly "now come with me and we can show you around, greenie." He slows down every word trying to soothe me. "Bella." I choke out. He looks at me in confusion and I say it louder " my name is Bella" I take his hand and he pulls me out the box. "I call dibs." I hear someone shout and I turn around to see an eager boy behind me. "hi I'm frypan." He shakes my hand quickly but then he's shoved out the way. " that's not what she wants you crazy shank." A new boy appears in front of me. "hey there." He says whilst running his hands threw his hair.
"move man."
"she wants me, not you."
" are you kidding."
"hi babe"
"my turn"
I feel my hands slip away from newt as the blood rises to my cheeks. I drop to the ground and slowly drift out of consciousness.
