Coming Home.
For the second time today they found three girls on the floor. But the message that they had written was puzzling.'This is the Maze. Don't let the Grievers out-'
Don't let the Grievers out? But who on earth would let them out. Better question, how would they not kill the person who lured them inside the Glade? Don't Grievers hunt at night?
There was a tornado of thoughts in Thomas' mind and he could find the answer to any of them.
A gasp erupted from someone but he already knew that it was one of his sisters. Sisters. He had family that he couldn't even remember. And here he was thinking that he was alone in the Glade. The first one to get up from the floor was Harmony, she dusted herself off and helped up Melody who was staring at the wall and then back at the knife that was abandoned on the floor. Once more she shrieked and pointed to Piper and as Harmony's eyes followed to where Melody was pointing to, she shrieked to and fell onto the floor besides Piper.
"Gally! Come here! RIGHT NOW!" Melody screamed and Gally, though confused, stepped forwards to where Piper was laying. He took one look at her and collapsed too. To everyone's amazement it seemed as though Gally was crying. He picked her up off the floor and carried her into the Med-Jacks hut and heavy footsteps was the only thing that anyone was hearing.
"How could we have been so stupid? Mel, we were so stupid. We should have planned this to happen later! After what we had just been through and we made Piper hold the knife! After just having a spear thrown at her! It was just yesterday and we should have known! I should have held the knife. We-I-She-" Harmony blubbered to Melody as tears fell from her eyes too.
"Its not your fault, Harms. We got caught up in the moment. I'll be able to fix the damage, I promise."
Thomas had a sudden urge to see what had happened to his sister. So, as if by sheer force, he found himself standing in front of the hut with Jeff behind him. He hadn't even realised that Melody and Harmony had gone inside.
Pushing the door open, he felt horror take over him. His sister was lying on the bed next to the girl he was assumed was called Teresa. She had a large gash in her abdomen and Jeff was clearly in panic-mode since as he was sweating.
"I don't have enough thread to stitch the wound that big and I-"
Gally had pinned Jeff to the wall and it made the whole hut shake.
"Fix her. Or else." Gally snarled and Thomas was glad he had said that because if Jeff wasn't going to at least try to help his sister then he would have done the exact same.
Again, Melody pulled something out of the pocket of her jeans and conveniently, it turned out to be a needle and thread. As she began stitching up her sister. Gally released Jeff but Jeff didn't seem to have noticed because he was still in the same position that Gally had pinned him in.
"She's going to be okay. I promise. You know I don't break my promises, Gally. I didn't break the promise I made to you or Minho or Thomas or Vic or Alby or Sonya or Harriet. I don't break promises, Gally. And she is going to be alright." Melody stated as she lifted her head up slightly to look him in the eyes and only then did Thomas notice the colour of her eyes.
Sea-Green.
He remembered these eyes now. He remembered them so vividly it was as if he had never forgotten her at all. He remembered something else too. He remembered a woman, with the same colour of eyes. A woman with long dark brown hair with hints of blonde much like his youngest sister's
Gally remembered these eyes too as his eyes were distant and clouded. He shook his head and his eyes were clear again. Gally grunted as an response and murmured something while nodding to the door. Melody seemed to understand since she nodded to say yes. Jeff joined Melody by the bed and then said something that Thomas didn't understand. He then stood up and looked at one of the shelves and yelled and "A-ha!" He walked back towards the table and unscrewed the lid of the bottle. As he started lathering this on to Piper, Thomas had an urge to pull him off her and to punch him for touching his sister but decided against it because then she might not get better.
A few Gladers had clustered around the hut, desperate to get a glimpse of what had happened. Only Alby, Gally and Newt were able to get in though, due to Alby yelling a very angry "Alright! Shove off! Otherwise, it'll be extra hours!" to which all the Gladers groaned and reluctantly moved away. As Alby walked into the room, Jeff stepped away from Piper. It seemed as though she was better as her breathing was at a normal pace again. As Melody stroked her hair tenderly while Harmony was holding her hand and hiding her face on the back of her left sleeve. It was obvious that she was crying as whimpering noises constantly erupted from where she was sitting.
"Hush, Harms. Piper needs her sleep. How about we sing her a song? Yeah?"
"I don't feel like singing- I just want her to be- to be better."
"You don't trust me?"
"NO! Of course I do- I just- I'm scared. You know what'll happen if this goes wrong. We only have one chance or- or- it'll change again."
Melody's eyes softened as she looked down at the sleeping form of Piper and then smiled. She glance up at Harmony and started to sing softly,
"Hold me close and hold me fast,
The magic spell you cast,
This is La Vie En Rose.
When you kiss me heaven sighs
And though I close my eyes,
I see La Vie En Rose.
When you press me to your heart,
I'm in a world apart
A world where roses bloom.
And when you speak angels sing from above,
Everyday words seems to turn into a love song.
Give your heart and soul to me and life will always be La Vie En Rose."
Her voice was soft and warm. It felt as though Thomas was coming home again from a long day and it felt as if he had never lost his memory. But that didn't matter. If he remembered or not. Because his sisters' where home. And if his sisters' were home, then so was he.
