Aaaaand, I'm back! Yay! Even if it was only two reviews, those two were absolutely wonderful and nice. So thank you, Zoey24 and SkyFire617! The reason why I'm writing? I've been playing Rayman Origins on the XBOX, and I'm getting so frustrated with this level, so… here I am. Enough about me, and just a little hint, compare the names of Lilith and the two newcomers, or even only one newcomer. See what they have in common. And thank you, Mira, for commenting. (Mira's my best friend. She's known as PJOFangirl10)

I don't own TMR. Even though it'd be awesome, it'd never happen. Not in a million years.

Lilith's POV: (3rd Person)

"It is?" Newt's face was scrunched up in a kind of cute way. His brows were furrowed, his head was tilted and one side of his mouth was slightly raised.

"Yeah."

Lilith looked up at the sky and noticed that the navy blue surface was missing something. Like something that made the night sky special. "Stars."

Newt looked over at her. "What?"

"Stars. Why are there no stars?" She thought about the daytime. "Or a sun? They should be up there…"

"Honestly, greenie-"

"-Lilith."

Newt grumbled to himself, but raised his hands in surrender. "Fine. Honestly, Lilith, I don't know. For the two years I've been here, there's never been a sun or a moon. The night sky has always been pitch black. Like your hair."

The greenie took a lock of said 'pitch black' hair, and thought about it. About herself. "What do I look like?"

"Oh, um…" Newt seemed to be struggling to find the right words to describe her. "Well, your hair is very straight and thick. It goes down to your back, but I'm sure you already know that. Your face is um, heart-shaped? I guess, uh, yeah… Your eyes are brown, your nose is a bit wide, but still small, and your lips are… a bit on the full side? I don't know… But that's about it. You're pretty short too. Pretty cute."

It took Lilith a few moments to process what he'd just said. Cute? She didn't know if she liked being called 'cute' or not. It made her feel… unlike her. Whether it was because she liked it or because she was the polar opposite of cute, she didn't know. She made the decision to be thankful anyways. "Thanks. Do they have any mirrors here?"

Newt shook his head. "Just spoons, shovels, ya know, all those things. Not that the buggin' things can reflect us very well. It's for the best anyways. What good is it to look at our ugly shuck faces?"

"Well your face isn't that ugly." The words surprised the person who spoke them. It was as if Lilith's mouth had a mind of it's own. Or perhaps her heart did, but she didn't think of that. Not then, no.

"Did I just hear you compliment me? Well, it won't be too soon until you'll be bloody drooling over me, green bean!" His smile was cheeky. And arrogant. And cocky. And arrogant and cocky meant the same thing. Surprisingly attractive too.

Lilith internally scolded herself, for both of her comments, spoken and unspoken. "As if."

Suddenly, Lilith picked up a strange whirring sound. And a thump. "Huh," Newt said.

"What's that?"

Newt shrugged, looking away. "It's nothing. The buggin' grievers won't get in anyways."

"Grievers?" They certainly didn't sound good, and Lilith really didn't think that she wanted to be confirmed, but curiosity was one of her biggest flaws.

Newt waved it off. "I'll explain tomorrow, during the tour of the maze. Then you'll get to know everything, greenie." He fixed a cheeky look at Lilith.

The 'greenie' opened her mouth to say something, to object, but at the last moment she closed it, choosing to leave it alone. "Well I think that we should get some sleep. I don't think the tour'll be very effective if we're both half-asleep, now will it?"

"Good that." With that statement, Newt laid down on the ground once more. He was laying on his back and using his hands as a stand in pillow.

Lilith looked down at the boy, his blond hair a shade of grey-brown in the non-existent light. "You're staying here?"

"Wouldn't stay anywhere else, greenie."

"Rise and shine, greenbean!"

Those were the only words Lilith heard before she was drenched in freezing cold water. Her eyes shot open, and she promptly fell off of her hammock. "Oh my god, you freaking-how dare you? What the hell?"

Some guy stood above her, a mischievous grin on his face. He was tall and thin, with black hair and an… interesting nose. "Well it worked, didn't it?"

"Yes, it worked. I'm soaked though! And there's one little inconvenience. I have no other clothes!"

The boy shrugged. "Not my problem."

Lilith got up, pushing her wet hair to one side, trying to wring the water out.

"Bloody hell, Lilith, what happened to you?" Newt walked over to her-he'd woken up earlier, no doubt-and placed a hand on her shoulder, resulting in her elbowing him in the stomach. He doubled over, clearly in no little pain.

"Sorry! I didn't mean to, it was reflex!" Her profuse apology was accompanied by an embarrassed blush.

"It's fine," Newt croaked. "I just think that I broke a few ribs."

"Sorry…"

Newt laughed. "Nah, it's fine. A few broken ribs never hurt anybody!"

Lilith scoffed. She could see through the forced smile. "The tough guy act isn't working."

"It doesn't matter." Newt looked her up and down. "Why are you so wet?"

At this, Lilith whipped around at the boy who'd dumped the water on her. "This imbecile thought it'd be a good idea to dump a bucket of water on me as a wake-up call!"

Newt sighed. "Really, Gally? Get back to work ya shuck-face."

'Gally' said nothing, just shrugged indifferently and went off to who-knows-where.

The drenched girl resumed her previous task of wringing her hair out. "Did any spare clothes come up with me?"

"Afraid not, greenie. You'll just have to borrow some of our clothes, or stay wet."

Lilith froze. "What?"

"I said-"

"-No, I heard you perfectly clearly." By this time, her voice was raised to almost a yell. "Do you have any idea how tiny I am? None of you guys would even have anything close to my size! And I can't just wear this outfit, do you want me to have hypothermia?"

The second-in-command ran a hand through his hair. "Well, maybe-"

A siren blared, interrupting Newt mid-sentence.

"There's no way we're going to get another greenie. Not only a day after you came." Newt looked around, seeming puzzled. That certainly didn't reassure Lilith. Newt always seemed so sure, and if he didn't know what was going on, there was something seriously wrong.

"Why?"

"It's always exactly a month afterwards, and supplies only come once a week. That was yesterday. They came along with you." Newt starting making his way towards the box hole.

Not wanting to be left behind, Lilith ran after him, pushing her way to the front of the crowd. The box had come back up again, and if she squinted, she could see a crouched figure amongst the boxes.

This time, Alby went down to greet the newcomer. "Come on out, greenie. I won't hurt you."

The figure stayed there, not making a move. Suddenly, Alby let out a call. "It's another girl!"

Murmurs erupted from the gladers. Sure, they could accept one girl, but another? And a day after, no less? There was definitely something going on. Unfortunately, most of the boys weren't worried about that.

"Another girl? Is she hot?"

"I call dibs!"

"Come on, can I have her this time? Newt's already claimed Lilith!"

The last one made her want to throw up. Not only did she not have any affection for Newt whatsoever, she didn't like people saying that someone had 'claimed' her, like she was some sort of prize to be won.

Disregarding her thoughts, she spoke up in a manner that could be labeled bold. "I'm going down."

Newt shook his head. "Lilith, what if she's dangerous? I mean, you turned out to be nice, and you still held a knife to my neck. Imagine what she could do if her intentions are less than good."

"I don't care." She looked at Newt, challenging him to try to stop her. He didn't though, he knew that he'd never win. "Alby, get up here!"

Alby looked up at Lilith, and called back, "I don't think you should come down!"

"Get up here! I'm the only girl!"

The leader put his head in his hands. "Fair point, but if you get hurt, greenie, don't blame me."

He took the rope up and handed it to her. She took it, sarcastically saluting Newt in the process. Once lowered down, she slowly walked towards the girl.

"Come on out. I won't hurt you, just trust me." Lilith held out her hands to show that she held no weapons. "See? I'm unarmed."

Slowly but surely, the girl moved forwards, into the light. She had brown hair that was a little higher than her shoulders. The waves had lighter streaks most likely caused by being in the sun too often. Glasses adorned her face, they were rectangular black ones. She was average height and very skinny. Her misty blue eyes were scared, and timid. Very different than Lilith.

The girl trembled, lip quivering as she spoke the words, "Who are you?"

"My name is Lilith, and I'm… a friend. Do you remember your name?" Lilith didn't know what to expect, because apparently they usually remembered their names as soon as they got to the glade, but she herself had to wait.

"Y-yes. It's Kali. But I don't know anything else." The girl averted her eyes. "Why don't I remember anything else?"

"I'm going to be honest here and say that I have no idea why." This elicited a shocked look from Kali. "I'm new here too. Just come on up, and you can join me on my tour, okay?"

The girl, Kali, nodded. She went up first, Lilith followed.

As soon as she reached the surface, Lilith took a hold of Kali's upper arm. "No one touches her, got it?" Nods from the gladers. "Check to see if there's any extra clothes or not."

"We'll leave a request if there aren't any," Newt said.

Lilith looked back at him. "Leave a request either way. You can never have enough extras."

"Last time I checked, I was the buggin' leader, not some greenie. But you may have a point." Alby started assigning roles. "Clint, that's your job! Builders, unload the cargo! Seems like we have some extra supplies along with the extra greenie."

Newt caught up with the two girls. "So hey, Lilith. I've got another set of clothes for you. Looks like the greenie isn't drenched though, so I'm going to assume she's good to go."

Kali didn't answer, just fiddled with the hem of her green t-shirt. From that, Lilith got the impression that she wasn't exactly the talkative type, or the brave type, or the outgoing type.

Lilith shrugged. "I'm going to guess that she's fine. If not, she can just speak up. That is, if she can actually speak." She turned to Kali, expecting some form of reply.

Kali didn't look back. "I can. I just don't like to."

Newt laughed. "Well then that's all we need to know, greenie."

Already anticipating the question that Kali was too shy to answer, Lilith explained for her. "Greenie means newbie."

"Yeah." Newt stopped walking and looked over at Lilith. "As in, this former greenie girl should go change into a dry set of clothes."

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'll find somewhere private." Lilith snatched the bundle of clothes out of Newt's hands, walking towards whatever.

Newt's POV: (3rd Person) (This'll be short, just a little stuff explaining what went down while Lilith was away)

"So hey, greenie! Kali, right?" Newt's absolute failure at a conversation starter was met with silence.

"Doing okay?" Silence.

"Should I take that as a yes?" Silence.

"I give up."

Kali looked up at him. "Good." Then promptly resumed staring at the floor.

Newt really wondered what she was staring at. If it was the floor, there wasn't really anything special. Most likely she was thinking and the floor was just a temporary eye hotel for it to linger on whilst she thought about who-knows-what.

The awkward silence was so uncomfortable, Newt couldn't shut up. "You really should meet Minho. He talks enough for the both of you."

"No thanks."

"Nah, he'll grow on you."

"No thanks."

"Are you listening?"

"No thanks."

Lilith's POV: (3rd Person)

When Newt saw me approach him and "You look better dry than you do soaking wet."

"I suppose I do, now, Newt, why don't you give us a little tour of the Glade?"

He had already started walking towards the homestead. "Already one step ahead of you, greenie."

Lilith sighed. "Well, actually,(You have no idea how much I say 'well actually' in real life) I'm not the greenie anymore." I pointed at Kali with my thumb. "She is."

"Eh, I suppose you're right."

"When am I ever wrong?"

The second chapter is done! Don't expect such good updating later on. It's just Lunar New Year break for me, so I have some spare time. Also, I love The Maze Runner so much. And Newt. We can't forget about Newt, now can we? Remember to review, tell me your thoughts on the chapter!
