The Maze Runner: Thoughts III

 Conflict really starts brewing. This kid- named Ben- was attacked by these beasts known as Grievers that attacked anyone that is left in the maze, and lets just say he isn't like what he was before. When Thomas went out to check the woodland/cemetery section and gets ambushed by the psycho Ben himself . Thomas was saved by a leader named Alby who took Ben into custody. Later that evening Ben was banished into the maze to be killed in a such a horrific way I cannot describe; you have to read it for yourself.

Ben attacks Thomas out of nowhere. Psychotic much?  

 All the while for the first time a girl appears from the box and reveals some important news: "Everything is going to change." and blacked out along with a note: "She's the last one. Ever." No more needs to be said.

Along with more minor things, such as a Runner finding a dead Griever, this book has taken an eerie turn. I mean, I never brought this up, but what happened to Thomas at the beginning? I know he was but in "the box" to take him up to the Glade, but what about before that? Was he drugged? Was he paid to do this or was by brute force? Tell me what you guys think. I predict that this is some sort of experiment by researchers. Why and what it is for still seems unknown to
me.
