"We can't just leave him here Pete what happens if snow finds him, you know he will give him straight over to W.K.E.D experiments".
"Katniss, relax no one will find him in here in distract 12, gale and primrose will look after him until we get back from the games okay, now say good bye, Katniss say goodbye to Thomas"
"I can't peeta he is so young , Thomas just be a good boy promise me Thomas promise me and I promise you that when I get back I will never ever in a million year leave you, and no matter where we are I promise I will find you Thomas I promise".
"THOMAS, THOMAS wake up man it is almost 10, Thomas".
I opened my eyes slow to find huge sky blue eyes stairing over the top of my head.
"Rise and shine greenie come on".
Eli cripped at me.
I had been in the glade now for technical a year, well it will be tommorow and I was a runner or I helped Eli in the hospital he was a doctor. Eli was like a little brother to me, he was only 15 but he had been here since he was 11, and he only ever lived by one rule if the water isn't clean it is because it is afraid I still didn't under stand it fully , him and newt where like brother newt had came the month before Eli and looked out for him ever since. Alby always referee to him as the stepping stone, I didn't really know way, gally told me it was because alby belived that to achieve anything all you would have to do is to belive in Eli and he would help. Gally always messed around with Eli, I could tell he didn't like it but he didn't seem to do anything all he would do is sit and read the book that was in his pocket when he came here. The book was titled i'll give you the sun by jandy Nelson.
Where are we going again Eli?
"I told you Thomas, Ben got his leg clawed last night and he is now in serious pain, we are going to try to help him as best we can ok".
Ok.
I walked in behind Eli, the smell of human flesh and suffering hit me.
"Here Eli do you think that I could just stand outside, I don't think If I was in here I would be doing much good, because you know I'm not really a doctor am I ?"
"No your not greenie but Ben is going to need all the help that he can get, if he wants to survive". Eli was brave. I mean for his age, I know that he was only 2 years younger then me, but he was not afraid to look a pone death.
He use to be a runner. He went on the trips into the maze with newt when he use to be a runner, until, well newt jumped, and thats why he limps now. Whenever newt had down this and had not successful killed himself, he was taken of duty as a runner and got placed into farming, so that he wouldn't try to do anything stupid to himself again. Once Eli had found out about this he still continued to to be runner, he was good at it. He had been a runner ever since he arrived at the glade. But then just out of the blue one day when he had just turned 14 he dropped everything and refused to run again no one knows why but alby told me that when the time comes the blossom on the tree will eventually bloom out.I stood at the side of bens bed.
Alby was standing behind his head. Minho was on his knees be his bedside holding his hand.
Jack was running around get injections and medical and alcohol and cloth.
"What do you want me to do Eli?"
I muttered to him, I felt like that extra piece that you get in your box of toys that never actually needs to be used.
"Thomas I need you to place your hand over the badge and push so hard on it, we need to stop the blood now before he looses to much blood". Sometime I always forgot that Eli wasn't even a proper doctor, but for some strange reason he always knew exactly how to keep anyone calm and under control.
I moved over closer beside the slow fading Ben. This skin use to be a soft brown and his eyes were grass green, but now his skin had been re-painted with rivers of pain and death and his eyes where no longer the calm peaceful medow, that medow had now caught fire and was spreading quickly through his eyes.
Ben was strong I knew that, but the pain that was eating him up was not human.
The scrab across his leg must have been about 15-20 centimetres long and there was three of them.
I could no longer she the cloth that once was a fozen, snowy lake, but now it had been melted and destroyed by the thick hot blood that seemed to never stop flowing out of his leg.
I kept my hand place strongly on top of the badge, that once had been dry and white like the newly born lamb, but now it had turned dirty and deep in colour like wolf that would come for the lamb.
"Jack I need you to pass me two of those needles that say morphine on them quickly" Eli shouted like he was calling for the heavens to open.
"Eli are you sure that he will need to of them, would onever not do him?"
"Well I don't know alby listen to his screaming and you tell me if you think that he needs only one,"
"Ahhah , Ahhah OH MY GOD JUST CUT IT OF PLEASE IT IS KILLING ME" Ben cried out.
"Ok just help him Eli please he can't die" Minho said.
"Stab"
Eli had bashed the first one into his right leg and handed Minho the second one to place into his neck.
The crystal and pain that Ben let out had made the heavens begin to cry. The tears kept getting worse and worse.
After about 10 minutes we all sat down around him , when gally came storming in drenched in the tears of suffering angels.
"How is he stepping stone?"
"He is stable for now, I have stich ed up the leg as best as I could but he will need time to recover mentally as well as physical"
"The next come shall only do bad things to this glade the fires of hell come with them where ever they walk, they are to dancers of death and they sit on the town of destruction, only the bad shall live". Ben had said with his back arched and his eyes white, his voice had gone like a pitch lower.
As I went to stand up he turned and grapped my arm and bit it.
The pain was like a thousand tiny knives sapping my arm all at the one time.
"What the hell was that Eli, I thought that you said that he was stable not possessed".
"Gally would you just shut up I am trying to focus on Thomas's have eaten of arm, so if you are not going to help wait outside of the tent". He and alby and Minho left.
"That was very brave of you eli"
"Thanks Thomas but it wasn't really, they might seem stronger in musel but we are stronger in our hearts".
"Eli what do you think he ment by the next to come shall bring bad things."
"They mean greenie that the next to come up in the box is going to do all the bad thinks that can think of"
"I just hope that he is wrong Eli, I have only just begun to get a hang of this place".
"I hope that he is wrong as well Thomas".
We sat beside Ben's bed for around 5 minutes as began to clean up, and the tears stopped pouring. Gally, Alby and Newt came scuttling into the hostiptil tent.
"Eli , greenie the box is coming up"
Eli stood up from his chair and sprinted out the door towards the box.
As we stood quietly around it Gally and Alby looked the most worried out of all of us.
What would have happened if bens vision had come ture, that this would bring damage to the glade. What if the person comeing up was one of the people from my dreams, then what would happen.
The movement of the box had stopped and the roof began to open up Eli and gally up in first.
"Everyone step back theres something wrong with her." Gally announced.
"It's a girl" the crowed began to wisper around them.
"Away away aroint thee hasss sannsay me too wayteaea" the girl had hissed at at these words.
Eli tried to came her down, when she turned and bit his finger.
"What hell is wrong with her Eli?"
"I don't know these are illnesses that I have never come across before".
"My sun my life Eli I am sorry to cause you any pain please forgive me" and then she fainted onto the grass.
"Eli do you know who this girl is because she seems to know you very well"
"No gally I have never seen her in my life".
