Hi guys!
Okay so here is a Maze Runner story. I've added my own little twist into it and I hope you really like it! I've set this so everyone is a bit older to the book. I think it would relate more to the idea I have for this story. xx

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the character in this story except for the lovely girl whose POV it is (don't want to spoil the name yet)

Run. Just.. make sure you run.
And don't you dare stop.

I awoke choking, feeling like I had a bucket full of water poured down my throat. But I wasn't wet? Well I was, but maybe that was just sweat.
Run. You know you can, you'll be fine. Don't worry.
All I could hear was that voice, that sweet gentle male voice. Who was he and why can't I remember his face?

Suddenly it dawned on me, where was I and how did I get here? It looked like a cage of some kind and it was moving. There were barrels and boxes and the smell of fruit. I tried to get up but the moving cage suddenly started to move faster and faster. I looked up hoping my destination could be in sight but all I saw was a wall in my way. Uh oh, cringing and ducking for cover I waited for collision, but it never came. Instead the cage stopped and the wall began to open.
Rubbing my eyes I tried to focus on what was in front of me. People, or better yet, boys all looking down at me. At this point I start to shake, what is going on? A very well built boy opens and cage and jumps in to help me up, "You're a girl." He looked at me confused and then at the rest of the boys standing around the cage. I couldn't speak, I couldn't even concentrate my focus on anything. My eyes kept scanning the area and the people around me, until I stopped and stared.
I know that boy.
The boy who was helping me up and noticed my staring, he too stared at the boy who was so familiar to me but I just couldn't remember. He stared back. Eventually Mr. Muscle looked back at me and said, "do you know him?"
"I…I don't know." I continued to stare, probably a bit longer then I should have.
"Thomas, do you know this girl?"
Thomas spoke, "no I don't." He too still continued to stare back at me. That voice!
"Say that again!" I yelled. He took a step back, probably from my loud tone, "I don't know who you are." He said. But it was the same voice, the voice I heard before I woke up in this cage. But, how?

I was eventually helped up and everyone still around me. "So, what your name?" The muscular one asked.
"I…wait." I paused for a moment, suddenly starting to shake again, "I don't know. Why don't I know? Oh my god, what is happening?" I was freaking out. Looking to the ground I could feel the tears starting to well up in my eyes and I felt dizzy. I fell to the ground unable to comprehend what was going on. I look up and see Thomas standing over me. "It's okay, it happens to all of us. In time it will come back to you." He smiled at me. I half smiled as he helped me up. "Gally go get her some water?" The one who helped me out of the cage left to get me a drink with a look of frustration on his face.
Only now was I able to focus. Standing straight I could see exactly where I was, or what was around me at least; walls. Big stone walls. Okay, I suddenly had a feeling of being trapped.
"Where are we?"
"The Glade and out there's the maze.."
"Hey! Here's your water." Gally returned with a jar and I drank, I didn't realise how thirsty I was. At this point another two boys approached myself, Thomas and Gally. "Hi, this is Chuck and I'm Newt." I nodded a hello as I swallowed my drink. "And that's Ably." Newt said pointing to a large man pulling out the boxes from the cage. He then starts walking over towards us.
"I can see everything been taken care of over here. How are you feeling?"
"Better, thanks."
"You need to realise this is as weird for us as it is you. A girl has never been sent up before and only two days after Thomas. This isn't normal." He seemed to be talking to us all, not just me now. He walks away and Newt and Gally follow him.
As I turn around I see this boy staring up at me smiling. I smile back. "Sorry, you're just the first girl I can remember seeing."
"Uh it's okay." I say with a smile.
"Chuck, why don't you go get her bed ready and I'll show her around." Said Thomas.
"Sure, but is she sleeping with all of us or do I make a separate area, or what..?"
"Uh, it's up to her I guess, what would you prefer?" Thomas looked straight at me waiting for an answer.
"I would prefer not to sleep alone on my first night." And with that Chuck ran off to make my 'bed'.

Thomas and I started walking the perimeter. Talking about the rules and the maze and what he had learnt so far about everyone until we found ourselves in a little forest area. After he gave me the run down he finally asked, "so, what was wrong before?"
"What do you mean?"
"When I said I didn't know you, as soon as I spoke your eyes widened and you looked like you'd seen a ghost? Have you met me before?"
"I haven't no, wait I don't know, just your voice. When I woke up I could hear a voice telling me to run and that I couldn't stop. It sounded like your voice."
"Weird, I don't know what it is but you look familiar, like I should know you but I don't. I don't know…" We continued walking and I tried to piece everything together. Maybe Thomas and I did know each other outside the maze once before? Once we made it back everyone was standing around. Ably asked me is everything was clear and I understood where I was and the rules and I agreed. Then dinner began, with vegetables and meat and a giant fire in the middle of the circle. Gally and a few other boys were on the other side of the fire fighting and laughing while I sat on the sand with Chuck and Newt. Thomas was a few feet away talking with a boy named Minho. Newt turned to me, obviously seeing my confused expression, "They're Runners. In the morning they'll run the maze and try and find a way out."
"Has Thomas always been a runner?" Chuck and Newt both laughed.
"No not until before you showed up. Last night they spent a night out in the maze and survived, so tomorrow I think things are going to start to change around here."
I looked over at Thomas talking with Minho. I suddenly got this feeling that I wanted him to come and sit with us. I quickly brushed it away and continued to eat and drink with my supposed new family. It got late and many of the boys called it a night. I, too, was about to go and find my bed when I heard a roar coming from the maze. "What was that?" I said out loud to myself.
"That was a Griever." Thomas walked towards me and sat down. "Last night we killed one, Minho and I, but there are more. They're deadly and like nothing I've ever seen before."
"How did you kill it?" I asked.
"Timing." He smiled down at me then looked toward the maze. "Tomorrow I'm going to find answers to what this place is and why we're here. Don't worry." He said those last words so calmly don't worry. Like when I heard his voice in the cage. I was trying to remember what was said, what he said. You'll be fine. Don't worry. In doing this I suddenly remembered more.
We'll get through this Amelia.
"Amelia." I said quietly.
"Sorry?" Thomas looked at me again with a questioning look.
"My name, it's Amelia." Thomas smiled for a bit and looked down at his feet. He then got up and reached out his hand for me to grasp to be helped up.
"I like that." He continued to smile as I stood up and we let go of each other's hands. We made our way to where everyone was sleeping and I weaved through all the sleepy boys until I found Chuck and he showed me where I was to sleep; a little hammock next to him and Thomas. I slipped off my boots, brushed my hands through my curly red hair and watched as Thomas also lay down in his bed. Then I heard another screech coming from the maze, this one startled me as my head spun around to make sure it wasn't closer than I thought. "They can't get through. You'll be fine, don't worry." As he said those too familiar words he smiled at me and closed his eyes. I looked at him for a while as he tried to sleep then I decided to lay my head to rest finally, listening to sound of the grievers.

OHHH. So there we have it. I know it's a bit short but I just wanted to get a feel for what you guys would think. Shall I continue? I have a lot of ides and plot twists on my mind for this and I feel like I'm hooked myself :P So please rate and message me if you like it, or even if you didn't. I love contrastive criticism, so if there's something I could do better PLEASE let me know

Love Love. xxx
