Scenario Plot:
Arrival in the Glade:
The familiar grinding sound of The Box rising reverberates through the Glade, drawing a large crowd of Gladers. When the Box finally stops and the doors open, the Gladers are shocked to find two unconscious girls inside: Teresa and you. This unexpected arrival disrupts their usual routine.
Gally, always quick to react, pushes his way forward. “Two girls? This has never happened before.”
Newt and Alby, two of the Glade’s leaders, quickly jump into action. Newt examines Teresa first. Despite his efforts, she remains unconscious, clutching a crumpled note. He carefully pries the note from her hand and reads it aloud: “They’re the last EVER.”
The cryptic message causes a ripple of confusion and concern among the Gladers. “What does that even mean?” someone asks, their anxiety growing.
Alby’s face tightens with worry. “We don’t know yet. We need to get them out of the Box and into the Homestead.”
Transport to the Homestead:
With Gally’s help, Newt and Alby lift both you and Teresa out of the Box and lay you on the grass. Teresa remains still, while you start to stir but stay unconscious for now. Thomas, who was nearby, approaches to see what’s happening, observing the scene with a mix of curiosity and concern.
Newt and Alby guide the other Gladers as they carefully carry the girls to the Homestead, the central building in the Glade. The Homestead is a simple structure with wooden cots and basic supplies. It serves as the main living quarters for the Gladers.
Inside the Homestead, the girls are laid on separate cots. Newt stays by your side, keeping a watchful eye as you slowly regain consciousness. The room is dimly lit, with narrow windows casting long shadows. Newt’s usual calm demeanor is tinged with concern as he monitors your condition.
Introduction of Minho and Maze Information:
Minho, the lead Runner, arrives back from the Maze just as the commotion around the Box settles down. He’s covered in sweat and dirt, having spent the day mapping out the shifting patterns of the Maze. He notices the unusual activity and approaches, his face a mask of curiosity and exhaustion.
As the lead Runner, Minho is responsible for navigating the Maze’s ever-changing pathways. The Maze shifts its patterns every night, with walls moving to form new routes and close off others. The Grievers, dangerous biomechanical creatures, patrol the Maze after dark, making it a treacherous place. Minho is one of the few who knows the Maze’s dangers firsthand, and his experience is invaluable for understanding the constant threats.
Minho takes a brief moment to observe the new arrivals. “What’s going on here?” he asks, his tone a mix of curiosity and concern. Newt explains the situation and the cryptic note.
Your Awakening and the Glade’s Response:
As you start to wake up, confusion and fear are evident in your eyes. The Gladers are on edge, trying to make sense of the situation. Thomas, who has been watching from a distance, understands the disorientation you’re feeling and is prepared to offer support if needed.
Alby, holding the note, paces the room with a troubled expression. The message—“They’re the last EVER”—suggests a significant change. The Gladers are already dealing with the uncertainty of their existence and the dangers of the Maze, and the note adds an extra layer of tension.
The arrival of you and Teresa, combined with the cryptic note, creates an atmosphere of unease. The Gladers gather to discuss the possible implications, their usual routines overshadowed by the new and mysterious developments.
Conclusion:
As night falls, the walls of the Maze begin to close, signaling the start of the Grievers’ patrol. The Maze becomes a dark and dangerous place, with the creatures emerging to hunt. Inside the Homestead, Newt, Thomas, and Minho keep a watchful eye on you and Teresa.
Minho reflects on the significance of the note and the arrival of the two girls. With his experience in the Maze, he is acutely aware of how such changes could impact the Gladers’ survival.
The Gladers settle in for the night, their thoughts occupied by the new arrivals and the ominous message. The sense of tension is palpable, with everyone wondering what changes might be in store for the Glade and the Maze.

The grinding of The Box echoed through the Glade, drawing the Gladers to its arrival. They gathered around as the doors were pulled open, expecting the usual—another confused, panicked boy. But instead, they found two unconscious figures inside. Two girls.
“Bloody hell,” Newt muttered, his eyes widening as he peered into the Box. “Two of ‘em. And girls?” He exchanged a look with Alby, who was equally as shocked. This had never happened before.
Gally shoved his way to the front. “Two girls? What the hell is going on?”
Newt didn’t hesitate. He jumped down into the Box and crouched next to the unconscious girls. Teresa lay still, a crumpled note clutched in her hand. Next to her, you lay motionless, unaware of the commotion around you. Newt gently pried the note from Teresa’s fingers and read the message aloud after climbing out of the Box:
"They're the last EVER."
The words sent a ripple of confusion and fear through the group of boys.
“What does that mean?” someone called from the back of the crowd.
“No more Greenies?” Another voice chimed in, concern evident.
Alby frowned deeply, his mind racing. “We’ll figure that out later. First, we need to get them out of there.”
With Gally’s help, Newt and Alby carefully lifted both Teresa and you out of The Box and onto the grass. The Gladers watched in tense silence, unsure of what to make of the situation. Teresa remained completely still, unconscious, while you began to stir slightly but didn’t wake up fully.
Thomas, who was nearby and had come over to see the commotion, watches as the scene unfolds. He stands among the other Gladers, observing the situation with a mix of curiosity and concern. The arrival of two girls and the ominous note adds to the growing tension.
“Take ‘em to the Homestead,” Alby ordered, his voice firm. “They need to rest.”
The Gladers carried both girls to the Homestead, laying them on cots in the dim, quiet structure. The commotion outside faded as the boys dispersed, their minds still reeling from the cryptic message and the unprecedented arrival of two girls.
Hours passed. Teresa remained unconscious, her breathing steady but shallow. You, however, began to wake. Slowly, your eyes fluttered open. The room was dim, the wooden beams above casting long shadows in the faint light filtering through the small windows. You blinked, disoriented, the memory of how you ended up here completely absent.
Newt was sitting nearby, keeping watch. He noticed the subtle shift in your breathing and your eyelids flickering. Standing up, he approached cautiously, his usual calm demeanor softened by concern. You looked around, confusion flooding your senses as you took in the unfamiliar surroundings, but you couldn’t bring yourself to speak.
As you come to, Thomas watches you from a distance, understanding the confusion and fear of waking up in a place you don’t recognize. Though he doesn’t approach immediately, his presence is a reassuring constant.
“Hey, it’s alright,” Newt said, his voice low and steady. “You’re safe. You’re in the Glade.”
He could see the panic behind your eyes, the same fear every new arrival carried when they woke up in this strange place. But something about you and Teresa arriving together, along with that cryptic note, made this different. Unnerving.
Alby entered the room shortly after, his expression grim. “Any change?” he asked, nodding toward Teresa.
“No, she’s still out,” Newt replied quietly, glancing at her across the room. “But she’ll wake soon. Just like the others.”
Alby nodded, his gaze shifting to you, now fully awake but still silent. “We’ll give ‘em time. Let them get their bearings. After that…” His voice trailed off as he glanced at the note in his hand, the words “They’re the last EVER” still haunting him.
Whatever it meant, the Glade had changed today. The arrival of you and Teresa wasn’t just another addition to their ranks. It was something more, something final.
And no one knew what would come next.
