Taylor's POV

The next morning Alby woke me and Thomas up and took us to a wall so we could engraved our names on it. He also told us that we were one of them now. After that we went to help with the gardening. Thomas kept saying idea after idea of different ways to get out of this endless Maze but they already tried them. Till I thought of one but I didn't speak. Newt then told Thomas if he wanted to be helpful to go get some fertilizer so he did alone.

After a few moments I heard screaming coming from the woods.

"Thomas... Thomas!!" I yelled then started to run in the direction.

"Taylor!!" Yelled Newt when he saw me running. Before I entered the woods I seen Thomas being chased by a Runner they called Ben.

"Thomas look out!!!" I yelled but it was to late, Thomas was tackled by Ben. I went to go push Ben off Thomas, but he ended up bitting me on the arm, causing it to bleed.

Newt then came and hit Ben with a Shovel right in the face. Everyon was surrounding us by now and was asking what happened.

"He just attacked me and he bit Taylor!" Thomas replied, as he was hugging me. Alby said to put him in the pit but Ben started to push the boys of him and ran. The boys followed but they were to slow.

I stopped worrying about my bleeding hand and decided to run after Ben. I ran past  everyone and tackled Ben then punched him in the head making him blackout. I then got off him when the boys caught up and when I was sure he was nocked out. The boys then dragged him to what they called the Pit, while I was taken to the medical room to get my arm stitched to stop the bleeding.

Later in the day before night fall. We gathered at the entrance of the Maze. The boy named Minho, brought Ben all tied up to the entrance. He then made him fall on his knees and cut the ropes that tied his hand to the back of his head. When the doors started to close the keepers started to push him in with these large sticks. When he was on the other side of the doors, he let out a blood curtailing scream but the doors then closed on him.

When everyone left it was only Minho, Thomas and me. I kept staring at the doors thinking why they would do that to one of their own. Minho had his head down while Thomas was standing next to me.

"Taylor?? Are you okay??" He asked.

"No Thomas, I'm not okay. Why would they do a thing like that to one of their own?? If we got stung they would do that to us but what if their leaders got stung would they do that to him!!" I yelled tearing up. Thomas then hugged me, and stroked my hair trying to make me calm down.
