Chapter 3: Banishment of Ben

~Y/n P.O.V.~

Me and Thomas were running through the Glade, just like we did when we arrived here. 

"Wicked is Good."

~

I laid on something, being pushed through a hallway.

"What's out there?" A voice echoed.

Thomas?

~

Many kids sat in front of me, looking at computers, all wearing white.

"Y/n, Y/n." A girls voice echoed through.

She sounded familiar.

~

My gaze was above me, many doctors standing in my view, all staring at me, like they were working.

"Can you hear me?" Her voice came again.

Who is that?

~

I stood beside a woman. Her face was blurry, but I could make out she had blonde hair, that was neatly done up.

"Everything is going to change." She said again.

Why did she sound so familiar?

~

I stood in a room, a familiar face in front of me.

Thomas.

What was he doing here?

He stared into my eyes.

"I love you, baby. Forever and always." His voice rang through.

"I'm gonna forget you. You'll forget me." My voice echoed.

"We'll find our way back to each other."

~

I sat in a room, a girl sitting across from me. I couldn't really see her face. She had dark hair.

"I love you, Y/n." Her familiar voice echoed.

"I love you, too." My voice rang through.

"I promised myself I'd keep you safe. I won't break it. Ever."

~

"Y/n."

My eyes opened and I was greeted with a hand flying to my mouth, covering it. Glancing up, I met Alby's eyes, who held a finger to his lips, signaling to keep quiet.

"Hey, is that really necessary?" A voice spoke up. Alby took his hand off my mouth and I looked over to see Thomas behind him. We met eyes and just stayed like that.

"Follow me." Alby broke it, starting to walk away, us following. "It's peaceful, isn't it?" He asked as we walked. "I know it's hard to believe, but it wasn't always this way. We had dark days. We lost a lot of boys to fear. To panic. We've come far since then. Established order... made peace."

Thomas nodded, staring at him. "Yeah. Why are you telling us this?"

Alby stared back at us. "Because you two are not like the others. You guys are curious. But you two are one of us now. You need to know what that means." He put a knife in Thomas' hand. He then gestured to the wall behind us and we both turned around, seeing many names carved into it. I saw some had been crossed out.

"What happened to them?" I speak up, pointing to the crossed out names.

"Like I said... dark days, Y/n."

Thomas then walked forward, starting to carve his name on the wall. Once he was done, he handed it to me, where I carved my name right in the empty space beside his name.
