"Who are you? Where am I? Don't touch me!" My voice rose in octave.
The lean blonde boy crouched in front of me. "Relax, no one's going to hurt you. My name's Newt."
"I don't care what your name is! Where am I?" I overlooked the fact that I had asked him who he was.
Newt sighed. "How about you come out of the Box and you'll see."
Cautiously, I got to my feet, a ladder had been lowered down and I sidled towards it, keeping one eye on the boy. Carefully, I climbed up the ladder, blinking against the sun. A tiny scream escaped my mouth as I looked up to see a big black boy with a frown on his face. Stepping back, I almost fell back into the box.
"What's your name greenie?" He asked.
"Um, I-"
"Can't remember, typical," the boy interrupted me. "Builders! Start unloading, everybody else back to work!"
I was greatfull when the majority of the crowd disapated. The all male crowd had begun yelling at me as soon as I had come up.
I stared at up him with big eyes, something about him felt familiar. The fact that I couldn't remember anything irked me, where did I know him from.
"Greenie? Have you been listening to a word I've been saying?" The boys hands were on his hips.
"Yes. No. Yes," I stammered.
There was a long moment of silence as he studied me. I shifted uncomfortably and looked away.
We were surrounded by huge ivy covered stone walls; there was only one exit from what I could tell. "Where are we?"
"If you had been listening, you would know that. Now pay attention this time; my name is Alby, you're in the Glade. There are only three girls here, including you. That's why the boys were so excited to see you," Alby started walking towards a cluster of building. "Over there is the Homestead; the Gladers sleep on the first floor and the Keepers sleep on the second floor. The building to the left is the Med Hut and other building is Frypan's Kitchen. There's the garden over there."
"What's in the forest?" I asked tentitavely.
"The Blood House, all the animals are kept back there. Oh and the garden is back near the Deadheads too."
