Who are you calling greenie?
The bonfire was in full swing, with Gally and the other builders wrestling near the fire and most of the other gladers drinking Gally’s special brew. You were sitting on a log with your friends Newt and Minho when a wave of fatigue swept over you. You slowly stood up, your eyelids growing heavy.
“I’m gonna call it a night now guys. See you tomorrow.” You said sleepily, before wondering off towards where you slept. On your way past the deadheads, you heard a rustling noise. Assuming it was just the wind, you ignored it and continued your journey. Then, out of the corner of your eye, you saw a figure slowly walking towards you.
Becoming slightly alarmed, you sped up to a gentle jog, your eyes flicking back over your shoulder towards the figure. When you did so, the figure also sped up, reducing the gap separating you. Breaking into a run, you tried to escape, but your legs were refusing to go any faster. The figure soon caught up and you felt hands come across your mouth.
You tried to struggle, but it was no use. The figure kept a tight grip on your arm and you felt a sharp prick in your arm. Your eyesight went blurry, and it was only a matter of seconds before your eyes closed and your body went limp as you drifted out of consciousness.

Your eyes slowly opened as you gradually woke up. Your mind was slightly foggy and you sat up, causing yourself to get a head rush and you put your head in your hands to steady yourself.
“Ah, you’re finally awake.” A voice from next to you says. You look over to see a blond woman with her hair pulled back in a bun with a white jacket and a clipboard.
“Where am I? What happened to me?” You asked, looking around in confusion.
“You’re in the WICKED laboratory. Your ‘kidnapping’ was a test variable on the subjects. We needed to see how they responded to confusion and fear.” She explained. You nodded slowly, taking the information in.
“So you took me to see how everyone else would react?” You asked, making sure you understood properly.
“Exactly. Now that we have the results, you will be sent back to the Maze.”
“Right… Just one question.” You said, lying back down. She gestured for you to ask.
“How are they?”
She smiled before picking up a needle and filling it with something. She looked down at you and put the needle into your arm. Just before injecting you, she said one simple, yet powerful word.
“Terrified.”

You sat up, gasping. You felt the ground moving and you looked around in confusion. The memories of what happened in the lab came back to you and you groaned to yourself.
“They just had to send me back up in the shucking box.” You muttered. You sat down on the floor and waited to get to the top.
When it finally stopped, you looked up and saw the top being pulled open.
“Why the shuck are we getting another greenie so soon?” You heard Minho’s voice ask.
“Oi! Who are you calling greenie, ya shank?” You yell up.
“Y/N?!” This time multiple voices called out and within a few seconds, Minho had jumped down into the box, along with Newt.
“Hey shanks. Did you miss me?”
Instead of getting a response, you get pulled into a group hug.
“Don’t you ever scare us like that again, you got that?” Newt mutters.
“Whatever you say.” You reply and smile. You were back with your friends. Your brothers.
You were home.
