I felt my heart sink to the bottom of my soul as I heard that alarm go off. That was impossible. I saw some disbelief in all the other girls in the Land.
"How is that possible?" I heard Donna ask.
"You tell me." Puck snapped.
That sent off a riot.
We all started complaining, pulling each other's hair, biting, smacking. Of course, I just stood there dumb founded, along with Rachel and Baker.
Under all the commotion, I felt Rachel elbow me in the ribs.
"What was that?" she asked, I could feel the fright in her voice.
"That was the newbie bell." I looked at her, starring into her eyes, that were filled with terror.
"ENOUGH!" Sonya shouted. She had both hands on her hips, obviously upset.
"You better listen, because I am pissed off!" she paused sending a scowl our way.
"We are going to shut our mouths, walk out of here and get our She-Bean! Is that understood?!" The Land was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. She glanced around the Land before marching of to the box. A few seconds later, we all did the same. A few grabbed some torches, since it was pitch black out. Rachel elbowed me again when we where half way there.
"What?" I whispered pulling Rachel and Baker back so Sonya couldn't hear us.
"Why is this so bad?" Rachel whispered scowling. I let Baker answer that since she's been here longer.
"She-Bean, we have had order, all the two years we have been here. One She-Bean every month. That's it. We have never had a two She-Beans in the same month, let alone the same day!" she scolded in a harsh whisper.
"This is crazy." I whispered to them. Beth turned and faced me.
"Yea no shit." she said with a scowl. Damn I hated her. By then we had reached the box. We all just stood there for a moment, taking it all in.
"Now, no matter what happens, we stay calm." Sonya explained. The look in her eyes proved she knew that wasn't going to happen. We all nodded.
She nodded, as she and Harriet began opening the metal doors. Harriet jumped in the box, taking a look around. I heard her gasp.
She quickly got out of the box, a horrid look on her face.
"Wha- What is is?" I heard someone ask. Sonya jumped in as well, only to have the same reaction.
"It's a boy." she exclaimed.
None of us said a word.
"Where the hell am I?" I heard a male voice call out.
OH shit. I thought.
"Its fine, it's okay we're not going to hurt you." I heard Sonya say.
A large figure climbed out of the box, stumbling forward towards the back. Towards us.
He reached us and took a good long look before rushing to hug Rachel whispering in her ear. He kissed her forehead and kept whispering.
Rachel remained frozen in fear as he continued to whispering. He then released his grasp walking back 'til he was facing everybody. Rachel's expression hadn't changed.
"Everything is going to change." he said in a loud whisper, as he did, his eyes rolled up into is head as he fell to the ground. Then Puck did. And Beth. Then Donna. People started falling to the ground, unconscious.
Then Rachel did.
Then I did.
I tried opening my eyes, only to realized they were open. Darkness. A sickening feel filled my stomach as I realized were I was.
The box.
I was in the box. I tried to move, only to realize I wasn't alone.
The box seemed to be full with all of the Landers, everyone. I was scared.
Not only that,we all seemed to be standing in the same position, standing.
"Rachel?" I asked terror shook my voice.
Then I felt her poke me with her elbow.
"Hello?" she asked, her quiet voice echoing in the box. I guess everyone was too afraid to talk, because all of our voices began arguing.
None of us could move, since we all were in a tight space.
"Where are we?"
"What the hell?"
"Why?"
Questions, that's all I heard. They swarmed in the air for what seemed like hours. Then the box started increasing speed. I remembered this.
Where ever we were, we were almost there.
"EVERYONE DUCK!" I shouted making everyone crouch, hands on their heads.
Just as I had predicted the box had stopped, reaching it's destination.
All of a sudden, the roof expanded, exposing us to the sun. All of us silenced.
Most of us cover our eyes, but not me. I didn't care.
"Were is that shank?" a male.
"What does he look?" another asked.
"How old it he?"
"QUIET!" a strong voice commanded.
All of the yapping boys shut their mouths.
I made out two figures, leaning into the box.
"Holy-" the boy with the strong voice said.
"What the shuck.." the other said, obviously British.
As if the lens of a camera cleared I was able to see the two boys.
One had a square jaw, blonde hair, and from what I could see, a look of confusion.
The other had dark skin, close to Bakers skin tone.
No one said a word, even Sonya shut her mouth.
"Excuse me," I asked politely.
"Would you help me out of the box?" I plastered that innocent look on my face. The blonde boy, reached out both of his shaking hands.
I grabbed on to both his hands as he pulled me up.
As I got up, I saw here were at least 50 boys around me, and all of them were shocked.
I was fully out of the box now, staring at the boys surrounding me.
Don't panic. I said over and over in my head.
"Okay, i'm not going to panic. And NONE of you are." I gazed around, both at the boys and the girls still in the box. I gazed around for a moment before saying anything else. It was morning, probably around nine. We seemed to be in the same place, the only thing different was the fact that all the Landers were boys.
"Shit." I said running my fingers threw my hair. I took in a deep breath, then exhaled. I stood on my tip toes so I could see over the massive wall of boys. I finally found a tall muscular boy, way in the back.
"Um, excuse me?" I said pointing to the boy. He turned his head to look of my giving me a cold stare. He had black hair with a large nose.
"Could you please help me?" I asked. He raised an eyebrow, then pointed to himself.
"Yes you." I snapped. I was getting frustrated.
He began walking toward me, the same cold stare on his face. He stopped, about three feet ahead of me.
"What help do you need?" he asked crossing his arms. He had a deep voice.
"Um... I need help with my friends." I stuttered, he hadn't scared me before, now he was down right terrifying.
"And, can you help me out?" I turned to the blonde that had helped me out.
"Yes." he said heading towards the box. I grabbed his wrist.
"We only need the Keepers." I whispered gritting my teeth. He gave me a look, not a confused one a scared one.
"What do you mean 'Keepers'?" he asked, his voice filled with terror. I only looked him in eyes.
"I'm a Keeper." Baker said. I looked towards the box, to see her hand raised.
"Can you tell me your name so I don't have to call you 'big nose' and 'blondie'?" I asked giving the boys a scowl. The one with the big nose walked up, two feet away this time.
"Gally." he snapped. He still scared me. The other held out his hand.
"Newt." he said with a slight smile. I looked at his hand for a moment before shaking it. At least he wasn't rude.
"Amy." I smiled.
"Hello? Amy? My arm is getting tired!" I heard Baker call from the box.
"Stop complaining!" I snapped getting a few snickers from the crowd.
I went over, grabbing Baker's hands.
"Geesh, I never realized how heavy you are!" I said, earning another few snickers from the girls. Baker sent them a glare.
"Gally? Could you pull Baker out before I break my arms!" I asked letting go of Baker.
"Oi! Amy i'm going to slap you for that!" I heard her snap. She raised her hands up. Gally came up, grasping both of them. He pulled her up, after a few seconds of struggling. Baker stood up, and craned her neck to see where she was. Didn't seen to surprise her that much, only the boys sent a chill down her spine. A best friend knows things like that. She turned to me, and like she said gave me a quick smack on the face. A heard a few winces in the crowd, but it didn't hurt so much.
"Are you okay?" I heard Newt ask.
"No. The world is going to end!" I used a whinny voice, hoping he knew I was kidding. I walked to the box, leaned in, and spoke to the girls.
"Now, girls, if you are a Keeper raise your hands like Baker did. I don't want to point you out." I said leaving.
"Please, pull the girls up with their hands raised." I said folding my hands.
Newt had a few other boys pull the Keepers up, with the speed it only took two minutes.
All of the Keepers just stood there taking it in. Sonya was surprised the most. The look in her eyes said so.
"Where the hell are we?" Beth finally asked. The boy that had spoken earlier, the one with dark skin, answered.
"The Glade." he said with a calm look on his face.
"Please, i'll explain everything. Just, Newt, get the rest of the girls out." he said pointing to Newt.
"Meanwhile, all you 'Keepers' come with me. I am the leader here. And I would like to talk to you." I expected Sonya to blow up, but she simply nodded.
"Get me a couple of Baggers in case any one tries any ideas." he said glaring at Sonya.
The crowd had died out now, with all the boys going back to work. A few stayed to help some girls out of the box.
I walked back to the box, and grabbed Rachel's hands. She jumped so it wouldn't be so hard to pull her up. I don't think she would even need to jump, she was so light. The bot that was sent off in our box, laid unconscious on the floor, so Gally and a few others lifted him off, taking him to the "Med-Jacks"
There were probably only half of the girls left, when I decided to talk to Gally. I didn't want to be rude. Plus, Baker wasn't there, and Rachel was taking a nap on the grass.
"So... Gally.." I stuttered helping Hopper up. She gave me a discussed look, before walking away. Gally must have noticed because he responded.
"What was that all about?" he asked raising the eyebrow.
"Dunno, Hopper just doesn't seem to like me." I said helping another out. One fourth seemed to be left now. I was surprised Gally even responded. He seemed so serious.
"Why wouldn't she like you?" he asked out of the corner of my eye. I looked at him. He was helping a girl get out of the box. I turned back to my work, pulling Sue out of the box. No one was in the box anymore.
I began to walk off. I was done. It maybe took two hours to get the Landers out of the box, and maybe was noon.
"Amy!" I heard someone call from behind me. I turned to see Gally jogging behind me.
