DISCLAIMER: I ONLY OWN BELLE AND A FEW OTHERS

Newt POV:

The mechanised surge of machinery sounded from outside, followed by the familiar rolling of Grievers that had grown so familiar over the years.

I shot up and tiptoed around Glader's favouring my good leg to the window and looked between the boards the next thing Tommy was looking through the gaps at the bottom. The Glade was empty no noise. No one dared to make an noise, every Glader was terrified. In a way I was glad Bella wasn't here so she wouldn't have to live through this fear. I felt tears threaten to escape so I took a breath and sat back down on the bed. All Glader's were awake and terrified.

We all stayed silent for a few minutes, the only noise was the terrifying sound of the Grievers. The sound of them making their was across the stone, things snapping and opening. It sounded like their were at least three maybe four. I felt my mouth go dry and my heart beat faster. In horror I realised a Griever was coming towards the Homestead.

I looked around at the horrified faces. Most of them had only seen that monster through the window. I'd only seen it once in the Maze but it was just a flash of it and I couldn't see it too well, I looked over at Tommy he too looked terrified. His face was pale of colour.

The moans from the monster got louder, closer. Everyone shuffled to the back wall, I ended up next to Tommy. We stared at the window as if the devil was about to come through the window.

It kinda was.

I watched in horror as the Griever climbed until it was right outside the window. It felt like everything fell into slow motion as the odd beams from the Griever lit the room in strange coloured beams of light.

The door swung open I looked up expecting to see Chuck and the slightest chance of a reconsidering Alby, but what it was made my heart miss a beat.

It was Gally.

His eyes were raged with lunacy. His clothes were filthy ripped and torn and. He dropped to his knees taking in deep breathes. His hair stuck to his sweaty skin making his hair sweaty too.

"They'll kill you!" He screamed while looking around the room like a rabid dog. Spit flying everywhere. "The Grievers will kill you all - one every night till it's over!

He limped over to forward, I saw Tommy look at me. I'm pretty sure my mouth was hanging open. He limped over until he was right in front on me and Tommy. He pointed a bloody finger at Tommy.

"You," He sneered. "It's all your fault!" Without warning he swung his left hand, forming a fist and swinging it into Tommy's ear. Tommy cried out in pain. Snapping out of my daze and pushed Gally away from him before he could strike him again. Gally stumbled backwards and crashed into the desk knocking a lamp off and it smashed. I felt myself wince at the loud noise it made but my mind quickly snapped back to Gally. I was sure he was going to try again but instead be looked at us all with his mad gaze and I felt pure hatred for him.

"It can't be solved," He said in a distant voice. "The shuck Maze'll kill you all...The Grievers'll kill you...one every night till it's over...I...it's better this way" His eyes fell to the floor. "They'll only kill you one a night...their stupid Variables."

I stood a step forward. "Gally, shut your bloody hole there's a Griever right outside the window. Just sit on your butt and be quiet - maybe it'll go away."

Gally looked up, narrowing his eyes. "You don't get it, Newt. You're too stupid and weak - you've always been too stupid, weak too. That bruise on your neck where are brave leader chocked you. No wonder you couldn't protect Belle. You can't even protect yourself!"

I felt my hands clench into tight fists. He noticed this and let out a laugh more spit flying everywhere.

"Don't worry. You'll be with her soon," He said he voice slurring a little. "There's no way out - there's no way to win! They're gonna kill you, all of you - one by one!" Screaming the last word he started ripping away the first board. It fell to the floor.

"No!" I yelled and heard Tommy go after me.

Everything went dark.

^0^

I sat facing the wall my hands locked together tightly.

"Hey, Newt," I looked up and saw Minho he looked like he was ten. He sat next to me. "You ok?"

I shook my head.

"Can I trust her?" I asked

"Who?" He asked. I looked over my left shoulder and saw Belle talking to the Ratman. "Belle? Of course you can. Why couldn't you?"

I looked back at the wall

"I saw her attack Cameron, she tried to kill her had her hands locked around her throat," I said quietly.

"But they have been hating each other since day one," Minho said, I looked at him. "I'm not saying that an excuse but it's true they hate each other,"

"Why?" I asked.

"I'm not sure," I could see he was lying but I didn't push it.

"I promise it won't happen again," Belle said almost shouting. I didn't need to turn to know it was her.

"You should talk to her, she's a little on edge," Minho said.

"Who's should he talk to?" A voice said. I turned and saw Teresa.

"No one," I said quietly. She sat next to me.

"How you feeling?" She asked

"I've been better."

She started rubbing my back, looking over her shoulder she stood up. "Tom's waving me over, see you later Newt." She walked off.

I looked over at Belle.

"Just talk to her," Minho said. I'd forgot he was there

"But Minho," I looked back at him. "She's killed someone."
