" THAT'S SUICIDE! "

      "SO WHAT ARE WE going to do?" Zart asked fear crossing his face remembering of earlier's event. "Something is changing, Alby. Something bad."

      Rosie remained under control already taking notice of the faces across the room starting to freak out. The two leaders and keepers gathered together having an emergency council meeting with Rosie. Her body was currently leaned against the British boy who currently sat on top of a wooden table and her body fitting in between his legs as she stood on her feet. His left hand played with the girl's hand fumbling with her fingers to fidget with them. Newt had the approval of Rosie to fumble with her hand whenever he felt any sort of anxiety.

Gally took a few glances towards the pair doing his best to be discrete about his jealousy wishing it was him instead. His eyes wondered away going back to the conversation, he ignored his feelings piling it to the last of his concerns.

"I don't know." All heads turned hearing Alby speak having no clue what they should do with their situation. The boys looked at one another thinking the same thing, if it was Nick, he would already have a plan.

"Look first David acting up, then Rosie wakin' up with a fever yelling a girl's name and then somehow not remembering anything before she accused Thomas of killing the girl, then Ben getting stung in broad daylight and talkin' about same girl?" Minho asked his arms crossed with a slight frown on his lips. "And you're telling me we have no plan? What are we going to do if this gets worse?"

      He was probably the most scared out of the group some form of guilt rising in him as he had identified a pattern. Every partner the Asian boy has had have been injured in some way. First, Newt then Justin and today Ben. Minho blamed the problem on himself believing that it was somehow all his fault. But the idea did linger in his mind that the injuries started happening when Rosie came up in the box.

       "We need to be prepared." Winston spoke standing next to his best friend who was also fearing his life at the moment. "I think we should do some sort of check in every night make sure no one's been stung."

      Billy shook his head, "I think we're getting in our heads too much. What if they're just playing with us? What if this is a test to keep us out of the maze?"

       Newt let go of the girl's hand vocalizing his opinion, "what if this all has to do with Thomas?"

       Gally quickly chipped in agreeing with his question, "Newt's right, once that Greenie got here, Glade's been a klunk show. E'rythin started happening after he arrived."
