I can't believe it. I honestly can't. Vivian is alive. Not just alive but she's ok. Well not perfectly ok, she'll definitely have some PTSD but for the most part she seems ok.

We get a knock on the door. "Come in." I whisper softly.

Thomas comes in out of breath. "Th-the girl. She woke up."

"What?!" I yelp. The noise wakes both Valley and Vivian up.

"Wh-what?" Vivian asks rubbing her eyes. "What's going on?"

"The girls awake." Thomas says.

Vivian is awake at that. "What?! Take me to her!"

She slowly gets out of bed. "Thomas can you help me? And Newt can you get Valley?"

I grab Valley and the baby carrier and place her in.

Thankfully both boys listen and do as I ask.

I take Thomas's arm and we slowly walk out. "Where is she?"

"She's in the tree house." Thomas points. I follow his point and see all the Gladers gathered at the bottom of the treehouse getting random stuff thrown at them.

"I need to go help." Newt takes the carrier off and places it on me. I adjust it as he leaves.

"O-oh ok." I take her with my free hand and me and Thomas slowly make our way over.

It's chaos when we make it. Gladers are screaming while getting hit with fruit, bits of wood, rocks. I quickly move my arms to cover Valleys head.

"Hey!" I yell up. "It's me! It's Vivian! I'm a girl too! I'm going to come up ok?"

"And Thomas!" Thomas adds. "In not a girl!"

The throwing stops and the girls looks over her black hair falling. "Just you two." She says quietly.

"Alright." I say. I slowly. VERY SLOWLY. make my way up the ladder with Thomas behind me.

"Careful." He mutters. "I don't think I can catch both of us."

"Thanks." I mumble

"No problem."

We reach the top of the tree house.

"Wow!" I yelp. Teresa has a knife in Thomas's face.

I quickly snatch it out of her hands and throw it off the tower. "Incoming!"

I hear a yelp from below and a yelp from Teresa as she jumps back to the corner.

"What the bloody hell?!" I hear Newt yell.

"Easy alright?" Thomas asks.

"Where am I? What is this place? Why can't I remember anything? Why are you the only girl? Why do you have a baby?" She asks.

"I birthed it." I say. "But that's not the point."

"This is normal ok, We've all been through this." Thomas says

"Ok?"

"Your name should come back in a few day-"

"It's Teresa." I cut in. "At least.. that's what I think."

"It is." Teresa says looking at me. "How do you know that?"

"Memories." I say. "You we're in them. With the name Teresa."

"I'm Vivian." I say. "That's Thomas."

"You already knew that though I guess." Thomas says." They said you said my name in your sleep."

"She did." I say.

Thomas and Teresa go back and both talking for awhile.

"What's going on up there?!"

"Is she coming down?!!"

"GIVE US A DAMN MINUTE." I yell. "Sorry, ignore them. Take your time."

They continue to to talk for a little while longer. I come back to listening to the conversation when Teresa says.

"These were in my pocket when I came up."

"What the shuck is that?" I ask.

"Wicked it good.." Thomas mumbles.

"What if we were sent here for a reason?" Teresa asks.

"Did you really just ask that?" I ask. "Obviously we were sent here for a reason."

"Sorry. I was just thinking." She apologizes.

"It's fine." I say. "We probably need to head down soon. The boys will not hesitate to drag us down if we take longer than three minutes up here."

Teresa looks over the edge. "Do we have too..?"

"Yeah." I say. "Just.. Be careful. The boys don't like us. They think it's our fault for the maze problems.. Especially Gally. Wait, Nevermind Gally ran away."

The girl nods and we start to head down the ladder to join the boys.

Newt pushes forward once we hit the ground. "Welcome to the Glade."

The girl nods keeping quiet.

"Me and Tommy will take her on the tour."

"Why do you get too?!" A boy asks from the back of the crowd.

I ignore them rolling my eyes. "Let's go Tess." I give Newt a quick kiss before leaving with Teresa and Thomas.

"So what's a Glade?" Teresa asks.

"Huh?" I ask.

"The dude you kissed, he said welcome to the Glade. So what's a Glade?"

"Oh! We're in the Glade." I say. "We're in the center of a maze. All around us is maze."

"Is there a way out?"

"Not that we know of." I say. "Wait, Tommy didn't you find something in the maze?"

"Yeah I did actually." Thomas says. "I'll get it!"

He runs off to wherever he kept the thing.

"We can sit here and wait for him." I tell her as we reach the dinning place. I sit on one side of the picnic table, Tess sits on the other.

We sit quietly but Teresas eyes keep flickering to Valley, still in the baby carrier.

I sigh. "This is Valley." I tell her.

"She's your daughter?" Teresa asks.

No she's yours. "Yeah she is."

"And your boyfriend, the blond hottie, hes the dad?"

I pause for a moment. "I don't actually know."

Teresas eyes widden. "What do you mean you don't know?" She asks horrified. "You've sle-"

"No." I cut her off. "I came into the maze pregnant. No memories just like you. So no, I don't know who Valleys father is."

"Oh." She stays quiet keeping her head down. "Sorry."

"It's fine." I tell her. "I probably would have thought the same thing."

"Ok." She stays quiet. "How long have you been here?"

"Three months. Four? One of those."

"Is it.. nice here?"

"Somewhat, I mean there are some shitty boys but most of them are nice. The monsters in the maze suck."

"Wait monsters in the maze?" Teresa asks. "What?!"

"Yeah, in the maze are grievers, they sting you with their stingers are you can get memories. The thing you came up with, it's the medicine that helps the process after stung. I don't think we have any left so if someone else is stung then we'll use yours."

"Will you not get more?" Teresa asks.

"The box hasn't gone down since you showed up."

"So it's my fault?"

"Not necessarily. Things have been going weird since I showed up, the first girl in years plus pregnant."

"Oh, but back to the monsters in the maze, how come they don't come into the  Glade?"

"The doors close every night so they can't." I say. "They should be closed by now."

We look over. The doors are still open.  I look up at the sky. The sun is setting.

"What the heck.. The door should be closed by now. We need to tell Newt."

We stand up and rush around the Glade to find Newt.

"Newt!" I scream repetitively.

"What? What? What's the matter?" Newt asks running over.

"The doors.. They aren't closed." I huff out of breath.

Newt looks over. I was right. The doors aren't closed.

I'm so sorry for the really late chapter. I'll try to get more done soon!
