We all gathered around Kenny and he told us the plan. But whilst he was quickly doing that we heard an array of screams, mostly the word "HELP".
After the meeting everyone had a vote.
I voted for his death.
Lee voted for his death.
Kenny voted for his death.
Lily voted for his death.
Katjaa voted for his death.
In the end it was decided that we'd go through with the plan, and let Ben die.
We all sat about waiting to hear the sound of one long scream. Nope.
Then Duck decided to start talking.
"What's going on?Dad?"
"We're waiting for Ben to not come back."
"Oh."
After a while Kenny began to get Impatient.
"How long does it take you to die!"
"He's gonna die!" Duck screamed.
"No, no Duck ... He's"
" He might be stranded."Lee answered.
"Well I'm praying to god he's not!"
"Dad!" Duck shouted.
"Ken!" Katjaa argued.
" Sorry Hun." Kenny

After that we heard no more screams or talking.
Luke came over from the stream and was with someone.
Ben.
"Why was Ben all by himself in the forest?" Luke asked confused.
"I was screaming for you, like forever and you didn't come."
"Well we wanted to leave the THIEF!" Kenny shouted.
Ben knew that he was caught red handed, yet still defended himself.
"I didn't steal anything! And I never would! I'm part of this group and I want to keep my place!"
The fear in his voice was detectable.
"Cut the crap! We all know that you tried to steal from us AND run away!"
"I'd never do that!"
"Well Clementine seems to know!"
Ben's mouth dropped open.
Luke decided to speak up.
"Ben I'm sorry pal but we can't have you in our group."
"BUT I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING!"
Kenny had,had enough. He picked up a rifle and shoved it into his arms.
"Good luck out there. Now leave our group or we'll have to kill you."
Tears were brimming in his eyes. I kind of felt sorry for him.
"Fine. I'll leave but your'll regret it."
He packed his things then left that night. Not saying anything to anyone.
When I woke up he'd left. I went into his tent to find but a note and his hoodie which said Brooklyn on it.
This is what the note said:
To Clementine,
I know that you'd have to tell at one point, so I forgive you. I wish we could've left together. I know of a group nearby that has a BIG supply of food. You could've eaten like a king every night. Sorry correction: queen. Anyway if you ever need to leave them just find us and say that you're a friend of mine. You can join us anytime you need to. I hope you manage to make the most of this group. And good luck out there it gets pretty cold and dangerous that's why I left you my hoodie.
See you soon
-Ben
I placed the note down and cried.

-This chapters a bit longer, which I'm hoping is good. May have errors. Thanks.
