Gally stomped over to us and crossed his arms over his chest.

"We are going to have a Gathering about this," He said.

I exchanged a worried glance with Thomas.

"Some of the Gladers don't even know I exist. What would they think of me?"

"Don't care. C'mon, shanks," Gally snapped, leading us out of the Deadheads. I quickly grabbed my hoodie and slung it over me, the hood covering my face. Gally, Thomas and I trotted out of the Deadheads and to the open Glade.

Gally stepped over to me and yanked down my hood to reveal my H/C hair and piercing E/C eyes. Everyone in the room gasped, especially the ones that never knew about me.

Newt opened his mouth to speak but was cut off by.... The Greenie Alarm.
