Heeeelllooo everyone, and welcome to my first TMR Fanfic. I really really hope you like this. This will probably be a crossover between the Book and the Movies. I am not the biggest romantic but I am really trying my best. This will also be a little silly and weird at times.
So please stay tuned for more as we dive into the Story of Newt and Grace and all of the other shanks.
xoxo, Anna.
My Head was throbing, my Heart pounding like crazy and my Body was sore. I woke up and found myself in rattling box, I was lying on the steele ground of the box and it felt like I was moving up. Why can't I remember a goddamn thing ? Who put me here ? And most important of all where was this box going to ?
I was scared and at the same Time determined to face whatever would be up there. My heart made a jump when the rattling box suddenly came to a creaky stop. I fastly sat up and slid behind some boxes that were standing in the corner, ignoring the pain I felt, I might have said I was ready to face whatever was up there but that doesn't mean I'm gonna be the sitting duck for whatever was up there.
I squinted my Eyes togehther when the Doors of the Box where opened and the sunlight hit me. I felt a rattle and someone moving closer. Where is he ? Do you see him ? I heard some Boys yell. Him ? I mean I might have forgotten everything about me but...wait, I looked down my Shirt. Yeah definatly not a him, I thought. Where they expecting someone ?
"It's okay Greenie. You can come out, we don't bite." I heard the Boy, who jumped down into the Box say. I couldn't really see him because of the Sunlight but I definatly heard a british accent. I moved away from the Boxes, taking the Hand he offered me. When he was out of the sunlight, I could se him better. He was a skinny but tall guy, who looked about 17 Years old and had blonde Hair and brown Eyes.
"Holy shuck ! It's a Girl." he yelled up to about a dozen more Boys who where up there standing and looking down the cage like I was the President or something.
"You're goddamn right I am ! What is going on ? Who sent me here ? Why can't I remember a goddamn thing ?" It shot out of me like bullets out of a Gun.
"Okay, okay calm down Greenie. We don't know who sent us here. You're Name will get back to you in a few Days." he said in a calm Voice.
"Now come on. Let's get out of this thing." he said with a light smile on his face and again an offering hand. I hesitated a bit.
"You don't trust me, do you ?" he asked with a slight grin.
"Should I ?" I asked back.
"Well you can just stay down here if you want." he started looking up.
"Don't just stand there you shanks, help me up" the other Boys helped him up.
"Wait ! Please don't leave me down here" I yelled up. The Boy smiled and he and a muscular black Guy helped me out of the Box.
"Welcome to the Glade." the muscular Guy, who looked older than the British Boy, said with a forced looking smile. The way he said sounded like this wasn't the first Time he's done that.
"Why is this happening ?" I asked looking like a helpless Puppy. There were still a dozen Guys standing around us, eyeing me like I was meat. I looked around, weirded out, the muscular Guy seemed to notice.
"Okay you shanks, shows over get back to work !" he ordered and it was like the Boys just obeyed him and got back to their things, muscle man turned back to me.
"I'm Alby. This is Newt." he said pointing at the blonde cutie, he gave me a light smile and I said "Hi I'm...Nameless, I guess" I said, with a forced smile.
"Don't worry you're name will get back to you in few days" he said smiling "I've heard" I looked around this so called Glade I saw green gras all around, huts, a field, animals and Boys everywhere, who were either working or currently taking a break. It almost looked like a Home, if there wouldn't be these four Giant stone Walls surrounding this Place.
"The most important thing to know here are the Rules" Alby continued, ripping me out of my thoughts.
"Wich would be ?" I asked.
"Rule Nr. 1: Do your Part, we don't need slackers here. Nr. 2: Never harm another Glader, this thing doesn't work if we don't trust each other. Nr. 3: Don't go into the Maze. You got that ?" I nodded, only understanding half of it.
"Good that. Tomorrow I will give you a Tour trough the Glade, I'm pretty sure this was a rough Day for you so you can just look around this Place today and I will give you a tour tomorrow." I nodded and smiled while Alby left
"Why can't I go into the Maze ?" I asked turning to Newt, I could see that he hestitated to give me an answer "Speak blondie" I ordered. He laughed under his breath and moved closer.
"There are things out there that you don't want to come across. Trust me, love. And don't call me blondie."
"Why not blondie ? Do you have a Problem with that blondie ?" I started, he gave me an eye role and walked away.
"Hey, don't walk away from me !" I yelled running after him.
"Hey wai, wai, wai, wait." I said gently grabbing his Arm "I'm sorry, okay ?" I laughed.
"But this is all really weird to me, waking up in a box, now I'm in a glade apparently surrounded by dangerous stone walls and all of these Boys keep staring at me like I'm a piece of meat" I noticed a Boy looking at me again "What ?!" I yelled, the boy seemed to be startled and quickly turned back to his work.
"It's because you're the first Girl to ever enter the Glade" Newt told me while we kept walking, I raised an Eyebrow.
"Look around. Do you see another Girl here ?" I looked around and really I seemed to be the only Girl here "So what ? am I something special now ?" I asked, he shrugged.
"No shucking Idea" he admitted "Yeah what does shuck and shank mean anyways ?" I asked him, thinking this was maybe some kind of Boy Landia-Language that I just didn't know about. He shrugged again.
"Don't know, I guess that's just something we've made up over the years." Years ?! I thought, I questioned how long all of these Boys had been here and before I could think about the consequences I asked him.
"So how long have you been here ?" Newt stopped walking and had kind of a mixed look between angry- and sadness on his Face.
"For a little more than three Years" he started "Alby was the first one to arrive here and I was the second one" he still didn't keep walking, so I tried to cheer him up a little.
"Oh so you and Alby are like the President and Vice President of this thing" I noticed and my attempt of cheering him up seemed to work since I saw a little smile creeping up on his Face.
"Come on let's go. Introduce me to some of you're Friends" I almost whined "Aren't you tired or hungry ?" he asked, sounding a little concerned.
"Hungry as hell. I'm pretty sure the tiredness will follow once all of the adrenaline is gone" I told him, he shook his head but laughed.
"Okay let's get to Kitchen. I'm sure Frypan has something to eat."
I walked past him "Do you even know where the Kitchen is ?" he yelled after me, it was still quiet enough for only me and him to hear it.
I walked back with my Eyes fixed on the Ground "There's no reason to be mopy" Newt gave me a light nudge on my Arm "Yes there is. I'm stuck here with all of you Pre-Teens" I mumbled, he roled his eyes.
"Let's just go" he lightly pulled me with him.
By Nightfall I had met most of Newts Friends - like Frypan, who is the Chef in the Glade and greeted me with a warm smile and some delicious food, or Chuck, the youngest Glader he was a small and chubby Boy who was pretty adorable, Minho, who is a so called Runner and came running out of the Maze with a few other Boys before the Doors closed with a sound that almost made me go deaf, he was a little too sarcastic at times an sassy as hell, Winston, who is the keeper of the slicers and pretty darn funny to be around, Clint and Jeff, the two Med-Jacks.
I got along with them pretty well except for Alby, he seemed to be like that in general though. The only People he really trusted were Newt and Minho.
And Gally, the keeper of the Builders who pretty much had something against me, maybe it was because I was a Girl but probably just because he was like this all the time.
After we talked and had some Fun, I felt the tiredness rising as I released a yawn, Newt seemed to notice "Okay Guys, let's call it a Night. This Greenie over here had long and Day." He lightly nudged me into the ribs and took me by the Arm.
"Good Night, Boys" I mumbled, my eyes almost closing.
"Night, Greenie" Frypan laughed and Newt walked me to one of the Huts, Alby and Newt had asked me if I wanted to stay in the hut or if I would be fine with sleeping in a hammock, I told them that normally I would sleep in a hammock but these Boys were still eyeing me like crazy. They understood that.
Newt was almost out the Door when I stopped him.
"Wait...uhm so, I'm kinda scared, all alone in here" I admitted, this was not something I wanted to admitt since it made me seem like I was a little scared girl who couldn't defend herself, but it was true, I really was scared. Because of everything what happened today.
Newt looked a little lost "Uhhm, I could send one of the Boys in here-" he started "YOU. I'll take you. You seem to be the nicest one out of these shanks" I tried to include the Glader Language, he chuckled and blushed a little.
"Uhhm okay, if it makes you feel safer."he got some Blankets and a Pillow and made himself a Bed on the Floor.
"Everything will be better tomorrow." Newt tried reassuring me "I doubt it" I mumbled, drifting into sleep. Probably hoping this was all a weird dream and I would just wake up the next Day.
