"Minho, I don't think this is a good idea." Thomas says as they slip out of the camp.

After helping Bellamy explore the bunker yesterday, Minho thinks there's got to be more stashes in the area. Minho looks over his shoulder at Thomas, "No one's making you come."

Thomas looks up from the ground, "Someone's got to make sure you don't get yourself killed." Thomas says as he stumbels on a root.

Minho laughs lightly at him as he puts an arm out to steady him. Minho waits until they are far enough that no early risers can hear them when he asks, "Did you talk to your parents?"

Thomas briefly glances up to look at Minho before looking back down at the ground, "Yeah. My dad gave me a lecture about drinking and my mom asked a ton of questions about my health. 'Are you eating enough? Do you get enough sleep?'"

Minho chuckles at Thomas' impression, "Then you better drink all you want tonight, before your parents come down."

Thomas rolls his eyes, "How's your parents?"

"Mom's tired, and dad got floated." Minho swallows hard, trying no to let his emotions rise. Minho sees Thomas about ready to offer his condolences, so he changes the sunject, "How's Teresa?"

Thomas sighs, and Minho smiles, "I'm not going to tell her about your crush, don't worry. I'm just curious if she's still as stuck up as I remember."

Minho shrugs at Thomas as his jaw hangs open. "She's not stuck up. She's just stressed about her medical exam." Thomas suddenly stops talking, and Minho can tells he's hiding something.

Minho stops suddenly, and Thomas runs into his back, "Hey!" Thomas says.

"What's up? You're hiding something." Minho states.

Thomas looks away before making eye contact, "Nothing, lets just hurry up before we end up like Jasper." Thomas shudders at the thought as he rubs his chest.

Minho doesn't press, and the continue the rest of the journey in silence. After walking for a while Thomas groans in frustration, "I don't think there's anything out here besides grounders."

Minho looks over his shoulder to say something when the ground gives below his feet. He has enough foresight to lean back so he doesn't hit his head on the opening. Minho lands on his feet, shaking the feeling of free falling off. Thomas falls to his stomach and sticks his head over the hole, looking for Minho, all he sees is black, "Minho?" Thomas asks, voice shaking slightly with fear.

Minho looks up, and the morning sun reflects off his face and relief floods through Thomas, "I thought you died."

"Can't get rid of me that easily." Minho smirks. Minho looks down again and Thomas can barely make out the sky blue shirt he's wearing, "Do you have a match?"

Thomas deadpans, "Yes, I grabbed a pack before we left the ark."

Minho looks up again, "No need for your sarcasm."

Thomas scoffs about to retort when Minho says, "I'm going to go explore."

"But you can't see anything." Thomas says as he climbs into the hole, knowing Minho won't listen to him.

"That's my foot." Minho says as Thomas lets go of the edge and falls.

"Sorry." Thomas mumbles as he waits for his eyes to adjust. He can barely make out the retreating form of Minho's back.

"Are you coming are what?" Minho asks as he walks away.

Thomas follows without a comment, to busy worried that he will run into something. Thomas feels a hand wrap around his bicep and Thomas tenses, "Whoa." Thomas hears Minho and relaxes.

"Shuck face, you almost walked into a door." Minho says, voice light with laughter.

Thomas tenses again, "Where are we."

"Under the ground." Minho deadpans.

Thomas sighs, and Minho smiles, "I honestly have no idea what this place is. But it has been buried for a long time."

Minho and Thomas look around in the very small space that the sun shows through the hole in the ground. Thomas finds some broken glass and says, "Shuck, I almost cut myself."

Minho wanders over, "Stop being a baby." Minho picks up the glass and smiles, "I think we just found our light."

Thomas looks at him like he's mad, "Minho I think you've finally lost it."

Minho ignores Thomas as he grabs a few items; a pot, some paper, and a rag. Minho puts the paper in the pot and uses the rag and a little water to clean the glass. Once it's done to his satisfaction, with Thomas watching in curiosity, Minho positions the glass so a beam of light moves through it and hits the paper. Smoke soon arises, and then a small flame takes over the paper.

Thomas shakes his head as Minho smirks at him, "Some of us weren't drawing hearts with Teresa's name in them while we were in Earth Skills."

"I wasn't writing her name in hearts." Thomas mumbles.

Minho's shoulders shake as he laughs lightly at his friend, "Right, it was 'T + T'." Minho says as he picks up the pot to moves further away from the sunlight. Thomas follows while mumbling under his breath.

What they find blows their mind. They walks from a kitchen into an area that reminds them off the mes hall back on the Ark, and what it leads to is a gigantic room, bigger than back on the Ark, full of useless things. There are objects hanging from chains, different levels that can only be accesses by climbing the structure or using ropes that hand from the ceiling, and there's a thing connected to the structure that curves into a circles down, like a spiral.

"What is this place?" Thomas asks, as he looks around.

Minho shrugs before placing a few more shredded spice of paper in the pot. Thomas doesn't pay Minho any attention as he takes the place in until Minho is climbing the structure.

"What are you doing?" Thomas asks.

"What does it look like." Minho calls down as he climbs to the top.

Thomas sighs, "It could be dangerous." He follows Minho anyway.

Minho gets to the top and looks around, Thomas sits on the spiral and takes it all in. "What was this place?" Thomas asks.

Minho looks at Thomas, and sees an opportunity, "I have no clue." he says as he gives Thomas a slight nudge. Thomas lets out a surprised breath as gravity brings him down and the edges of the spiral makes him go down in a circle. Thomas smiles up at Minho once he reaches the ground, he tries to keep his giddiness out of his voice as he says, "Jerk."

"Move shuckface." Minho says as he takes a running start before diving headfirst. Minho ends up falling off the spiral, catching himself with his hands. Both boys laugh, and soon become the children they were never aloud to be as they chase each other around the structure. They spend hours climbing up and trying the different contraptions, including the piece of plastic hanging from chains connected to the roof. When Minho runs out of paper and the fire dies they decide to leave.

Minho jumps from a table in the kitchen and grabs onto the edge of the hole, pulling himself up as bits of dirt fall down. Once he's out of the hole, he positions himself so his stomach is lying on the ground and his head and shoulders are in the hole.

Thomas stands on the table and grabs Minho's outstretched hand, and Minho pulls him up. The boys head back to camp, knowing the Unity day celebration will just be starting.

~Line Break~

Newt saunters up to Minho, and throws an arm around his shoulders, Minho can smell the alcohol on his breath and shakes his head, he heard about Newts argument with his mother.

Newt takes a long drink before shoving the cup into Minho's hand, "You look like you could use a drink." Newt slurs, and Minho can't help but smile at his best friend.

Newt smirks at some guy in the distance before returning his attention back to Minho, and Minho has to adjust as Newt uses him as a crutch, "Thomas is being mopey." Newt pouts and Minho just laughs.

"That's because there's trouble in paradise." Minho smirks.

Newt waves a hand, not really listening, "Stop being a wallflower." Newt says before pushing himself off of Minho to get another drink.

Minho shakes his head, and dumps Newt's forgotten drink, he walks off to do something productive when he sees Finn urgently talking to Clarke while Sterling, Fox, and Miller take shots.

Minho makes his way to Ravens tent, her back is to him as she furiously works. "No time for fun?" Minho remarks as he takes a seat.

Raven doesn't bother looking up, "Get to work."

Minho observes her movements before he feels comfortable enough to copy them. As they work Minho says, "Thomas and I found this structure underground, it looks like it was buried years ago."

Raven pauses to look up at him, the first time her eyes have left her work since he's entered the tent.

Minho continues, "It doesn't seem to have any use, but I was thinking we could use it as shelter in an emergency."

Raven lifts an eyebrow, and Minho smirks, "I was wondering if you would want to check it out, maybe you could tell if it is stable or going to collapse."

"If we make it." Raven says before going back to work.

Minho watches her for a moment before he takes a much slower pace at making bullets. Jasper wanders in later, disrupting the companionable silence, he asks Raven if she wants to join a drinking game, she brushes him off. Jasper offers to help, saying he was good at chemistry, and Raven puts him to work. The silence is filled with Jasper's ramblings.

Bellamy comes in, and Minho can tell somethings wrong by the wild look in his eyes. "Reyes, how's the bullets?"

She gives him a sharp look and Bellamy's eyes flicker to all the occupants in the room before settling back on her, "We need some rifles and bullets. Jasper grab a rifle."

Minho knows Bellamy didn't ask him because he doesn't trust him, and he doesn't blame him.

"Why?" Raven doesn't just follow him blindly, and that makes the corner of Minho's mouth rise.

Bellamy sighs, and for a moment he looks like a boy with the weight of the world on his shoulders, but then he pulls up his mask. "Clarke needs our help, she's going to meet with the grounders to try and garner peace. She needs backup just encase." Bellamy explains.

Raven accepts that and hands out rifles, Bellamy says, "Not him." When Raven hands one to Minho.

Minho nods in understanding, and Raven sighs, not in the mood to argue. "Make some more bullets." she instructs on the way out of the tent. Minho returns to work, his thoughts occupying the silent space.

A/N I'm sorry for falling off the face of the Earth. I will try my very best to update by next weekend.

I had Thomas and Minho find a playground, one of the indoor ones that can be found at some fastfood restaurants. I just thought it would be interesting to see their reactions to some of the forgotten things of Earth (I'm assuming the Ark didn't teach them about playgrounds, seeing no need for useless information).

I hope you guys enjoyed the chapter!

Until next time!
