Hi guys!

This is my new Maze Runner story, I have decided to discontinue my other one, if you are interested in continuing it, PM me and we can discuss the details

The first thing I feel when I wake up is hunger. My hunger is all I can really be sure about at the moment.

Where am I? Who am I? are just two of the many questions that begin to form in my head.

Jay. My name is Jay floats across my mind. I still haven't the foggiest idea about anything else. Except that I'm hungry.

I lie there as the container I'm in starts to speed up its ascent. I feel weak and a little light headed, and I start to feel a headache forming behind my eyebrows.

A small blinking red light shows me that I'm in a smallish box with a backpack and nothing else. The ground is metal and littered with some small random objects.

This weirdly reminds me of one of those escape the room games where using random objects you have to escape a room. It's funny, as I remember playing those, but not with whom or where.

I start to feel even weaker, and I drift off.

I wake up to bright sunlight shining into the box. There is a rope ladder leading out into... into wherever I am.

I stand up after a few attempts as I still feel very weak and hungry. I manage to climb up the rope ladder.

I seem to be in a sort of corridor with towering, ivy and moss covered walls. To my left, there is a sign. Find the centre before sunset.

The centre? The centre of what? And why before sunset? So many questions.

I try to walk, but I stumble to the side as if I am dizzy. I lean onto the wall to catch my breath. You can do this, Jay.

I try again, leaning on the wall for support. My head spins. My stomach growls.

I manage to get to a crossroads and I take a right turn. I continue on, trying not to stop, knowing that if I stop, I will never start again.

About half an hour later, my legs give way and I collapse onto the cold stone floor, breathing heavily.

I lie there, my headache pounding, stomach growling and feeling pathetic.

No, not like this, I can't die now

I tentatively reach out my arm and drag myself across the floor. This is no use, I have to stand up

I manage to stand and I continue walking.

After what seems like an eternity, I see a clearing full of small buildings, people and animals.

I manage to stumble in and I fall onto the grass. People start to gather around me, saying things that I barely hear.

"My name is Jay," I say before I black out.

I know this was really short, but the next one's coming soon.

See you in the next one,

Leila
