Hey guys, so in this chapter there are going to be 3 people singing so to make things easier for you I have coded each part of the song so you know who's singing.
~ Elizabeth = Bold
~ Harper = Italics
~ Brielle = Underlined
~ All = Bold, Italics & Underlined
Hopefully that should make things easier for you to follow along. I have also linked the video to the song that will be playing. It is one of my favourite songs and I would like to thank Teen Wolf for showing it to me.
Anyway with all of that out of the way, enjoy the chapter, Paige xx
*~*~*~*
I stood next to Newt as everyone gathered at the Doors for the Banishing of Ben. I had never seen a 'Banishing' and quite frankly I didn't really want to be here, but Alby requested that everyone was to be there.
The Keepers and Newt all had large poles in their hands with another pole attached to it which made it look like a 'T' while everyone else head spear-like poles. I wasn't holding anything and to tell you the truth, I didn't want to.
I saw Alby turned back towards the Glade where I saw Ben with his arms roped behind his head and Minho dragging him towards us.
"Just listen to me. Just, please, listen to me!" I heard Ben growl as Minho pushed him towards the doors.
"Please, Minho!" He begged.
Minho continued to push him through until he was in the centre of the semicircle we had formed.
Minho brought out a knife and cut the rope off the sick boy, causing him to fall to the ground in a heap.
I felt my stomach churn at the sight of him. He was dirty and had bruises all over his body.
He coughed and spluttered before looking up at Minho. His face then quickly turned into one of horror and fear.
"No, please. Please don't," He began to cry.
"Please don't it," He begged.
I took a step back when I saw Thomas making his way over to us. I went and stood beside him as wind started coming from within the maze.
"This doesn't feel right," Thomas whispered to me.
I nodded. "I agree and I'm one of the few people that really knows what's out there."
"You've been through the Changing?" His eyes widened.
"If you mean I got stung. Yeah," I replied.
"Poles!" Alby suddenly shouted, causing both Thomas and I to snap our heads in the direction of Ben.
Chuck had also joined us at this pointed and looked shocked. I placed an arm around his shoulder and pulled him to my side.
The whole Glade picked their poles up and had them pointed at Ben, who had got to his feet by this time.
"Move in!" Alby ordered before the Keepers started pushing the ill boy towards the Maze doors with their doors.
The massive doors of the Maze suddenly started to close, but they continued trying to drive Ben into the Maze.
It was then I really understood what a Banishing was all about and felt stupid I didn't figure it out before.
They were going to leave him out there for the night.
"Oh my god," I whispered to myself.
"Elizabeth, are you okay?" Chuck asked from beside me.
I didn't reply, but rather turned and ran from the scene, not wanting to see how this was going to end.
I carried myself up to my room where I slammed the door behind me and threw myself onto my bed as sobs wracked my chest.
How could the boys do something so heartless? He was sick and couldn't help it.
I eventually cried myself to sleep that evening, wanting nothing more than for all of this to be a dream.

"You start," Elizabeth's best friend, Brielle said.
"Why me?" 12 year old Elizabeth questioned.
"Because you have the best voice," Her other best friend, Harper answered.
The girls were currently sitting in Elizabeth's living room by the piano. Brielle was sitting at the keys while Harper and Elizabeth were sitting on top.
"My voice isn't that good," Elizabeth shrugged.
Both girls raised their eyebrows before Brielle started to play.
Look into this mirror tell me
What do you see?
Beautiful can't begin to describe you
Or what you mean to me
Come a little closer to me
Let me see you spin
Want to get inside of your mind
I'll make you let me in
Open up your eyes
To the possibilities
Take it there love the fear
You'd be surprised
How good it feels
To just let go
And breathe, breathe with me
Breathe, breathe with me
Shadows fall onto our bodies
From a winter sun
Lace on lace in strawberry shades
As we both come undone
Open up your world
Show me the deepest secrets
I would I'd understand
Watching us burn
Into a million pieces
One touch of your hand
Breathe, breathe with me
Breathe, breathe with me
You can have me
Touch me slowly
Kiss me softly
Take me under
Whisper loudly
Push into me
Mark my body
Lose control now
Take me over
Take me over
Take me over
Take me over
Take me over
Take me over
Take me over
Breathe
Take me over
Breathe with me
Take me over
Breathe
Take me over
Breathe with me
Brielle played the last note and smiled up at her 2 best friends.
