"Ah princess, sent the bitch out have we?" Murphy started coming closer to me and Bellamy walked out of the tent taking a spot next to me his arms crossed as he glared at Murphy.
"Cool it down and back off." Murphy shrugged and spoke with a sick chuckle as he looked at Bellamy with pursed lips.
"Or what Bellamy? What are you going to do, hang me?" A laugh left his lips and he continued as he looked me up and down with a smirk. "Not before I get a sight of her." Scowling Bellamy's knuckles clenched and he moved forward to hit him but I quickly threw my arm up in front of his chest resting my hand there causing him to stop and I spoke gently.
"It's not worth it Bellamy." Bellamy glared and Murphy spoke with a smirk looking at me with an over exaggerated shrug and spoke in a fake happy tone.
"You know what else isn't worth it Princess? That little bitch in there, why did you seem so eager to kill me off Bellamy, even when I was innocent." Bellamy spoke with a clenched jaw.
"I was giving the people what they wanted. Which was your body underground." Murphy nodded with a sick smile and spoke angrily as he glared at everyone.
"So it's okay to hang me up and try to kill me for a crime I didn't comment! But when she confesses you're all willing to let that little bitch go with nothing!?" Turning he looked at everyone in disgust and disbelief as he suddenly yelled causing me to flinch slightly. "Cowards, all of you!" Bellamy shook his head and spoke loudly stepping forwards.
"That's enough Murphy, it's over." Murphy shrugged and spoke and took a step back.
"Whatever you say boss." Bellamy turned and went to walk back into the tent when Murphy hit him with a log. Rushing over to Bellamy's crumpled form I felt a large pain in my cheek as I suddenly hit the ground and groaned out. That bastard punched me! The hell! Suddenly I was helped to sit up and I looked over to see Jasper with concern in his eyes.
"Corey, are you okay?" Nodding I spoke as I hurried to my feet and spoke at Bellamy as he stood yanking him along with me.
"They're going after Charlotte come on." He nodded quickly following behind me, we split up going different ways and as I ran around searching for Charlotte, I suddenly ran past a group of trees and went back to see Bellamy standing with his arm in front of Charlotte. When before I knew what was happening a hand took hold of my throat and a cool metal object was pressed against my throat. Looking over I saw Finn helping Clarke to her feet, and she rubbed her neck and looked at me in shock. I was moved forward and Murphy spoke angrily .
"I am sick of following your orders." Bellamy shook his head holding his hands up peacefully fear playing in his dark eyes as they met mine.
"Don't do anything Murphy..." I shook my head fear grabbing me as I flinched in his hold as Murphy put a finger up silencing Bellamy and spoke with venom holding his knife near my throat.
"I will slit her throat." I closed my eyes tightly fear griping me as I waited for Murphy to do it words spilling out of my mouth in fear.
"Do it!" This seemed to silence everyone completely and almost immediately I heard Bellamy's loud angry voice as he spoke.
"Corey shut your goddamn mouth!"Clarke and Finn started shouting for me to shut my mouth as Charlotte started crying and yelling for Murphy to stop and Murphy spoke angrily as he held the blade tighter to my neck making me lean further back into his body to get away from the blade but also exposing my throat more. I forced my eyes to open as I looked over at everyone Finn was practically holding Clarke back from running towards us and Bellamy was holding Charlotte from doing the same.
"Everyone shut the hell up! I swear to god I will do it!" Charlotte began shaking her head and spoke pleadingly tears coming from her eyes.
"No, please don't hurt her." Murphy raised a brow and spoke with a slight nod.
"Don't hurt her? Okay I'll make you a deal, you come with me right now and I'll let her go." Shaking my head I spoke strongly looking at the hysterical little girl.
"Don't do it Charlotte." Murphy pushed the blade in tighter as he moved my hair from my face and neck Murphy started to act like he was going to slice. This caused Charlotte to freak out and she started to fight against Bellamy screaming to let her go as he held her back and I spoke gently. "Please don't Charlotte." She was so young, she had so much life left, she deserved to live, she didn't need to die. She shook her head tears streaming down her face as she spoke.
"You don't understand. I have to. Before any of you get hurt." Clarke raised a brow and stepped forward to ask what she meant and Charlotte had a ghost of a smile on her face as she turned, running, she jumped off the cliff. I looked at where Charlotte had jumped I felt tears come and Murphy's arms loosened, and I rushed out of his hold into Finn's waiting hold. I held onto Finn tightly my heart pounding. Looking back I saw Bellamy beating the hell out of Murphy quickly I pushed myself out of Finn's hold attempting to stop him as I yelled for him to stop.
"Bellamy stop! You're going to kill him!" Finn snapping out of his daze as he pulled Bellamy off of Murphy and Bellamy spoke angrily pushing Finn away from him.
"Get off of me! He deserves to die!" Shaking my head I was border line hysteric as I pushed Bellamy back and spoke loudly tears in my eyes.
"No! We don't decide who lives and dies! Not down here!" Bellamy looked like he was about to lose it, his body covered in sweat, and breathing labored as he looked at me upset.
"So what then? What do we do with him? So help me god if you say tell everyone-" Clarke shook her head and spoke from beside me tears in her eyes.
"We banish him." Bellamy moved over to Murphy and picked him holding him on the edge of the cliff fear written clearly on his face."Don't ever come back. If I so much as see you again we'll be right back here." Dropping him to the ground we all made our way back to camp. None of us happy and once we had arrived Bellamy turned to me with a glare.
"Corey drop ship now." Normally I wouldn't have listened to him but not feeling in the mood to argue after what happened tonight I silently walked to the drop ship with the three of them. The moment I got inside I was barked at to sit and I did so, you know when your at home and you did something or said something you shouldn't have and your parents sit ya down to yell at you this was one of those moments that was broken by Bellamy's voice.
"What the hell did you think you were doing?! Murphy had you at knife point and you egg him on?!" Looking at the wall I shrugged lightly and spoke avoiding eye contact with anyone my voice cracking.
"I knew he wouldn't do it." Bellamy scoffed and Finn spoke clearly pissed off as he tossed his arms out at his sides emotions swirling across his face.
"Really he looked pretty damn ready to do it from where I was standing." I shrugged slightly as I looked down at my feet as I muttered lowly my brain finally understanding the severity of what had slipped out of my mouth in fear and in waiting for Murphy to get on with it.
"Then I would have died." Suddenly a pain filled my cheek and my head turned to the side as a loud smack echoed through the drop ship and I spoke angrily as I looked up at Clarke."What the hell you bitch?!"
"No Bellamy's right, what the hell were you thinking?! You could have died! I've already lost Wells I'm not going to lose you to!" Octavia and Jasper suddenly rushed into the drop ship, Octavia smiled when she saw Bellamy but her she tilted her head in confusion as she saw everyone's clear irritation.
"What's going on?" Opening my mouth Bellamy spoke cutting me to the chase as he crossed his arms, Clarke and Finn standing close to me as Finn had a hand on Clarke's arm no doubt trying to calm her down.
"Corey's a dumb ass." Octavia looked at Bellamy in confusion and he continued his dark eyes lit up with anger, "Murphy had a knife to her throat and she was egging him on to just kill her." Octavia looked at me in disbelief and I quickly avoided looking into her eyes when a searing pain filled my cheek again and I held it groaning before I spoke angrily.
"What the actual fuck?! Gah you bitch! God damn!" Looking up at Octavia she held anger in her eyes and spoke standing in front of me.
"What the hell is wrong with you?! You wanted Murphy to kill you?!" Shaking my head I spoke angrily tears pricking at my eyes not understanding why they couldn't understand what I had meant when I said that.
"No! I just-I-I-" Octavia through her hands up and spoke.
"What Corey?!" I felt tears come to my eyes as I spoke loudly standing to my feet matching Octavia's height as she stood in front of me.
"I was scared okay! I was terrified-so scared that Murphy was going to kill me and when he had that knife to my throat-I just-I told him to do it to get it over with it." It was silent among the teens everyone looking rather uncomfortable and apologetic as I sat back down looking at my feet.
"That's no excuse!" My head shot up as all attention shot over to Jasper who's face immediately went bright red as he stuttered out. "I-I mean, look Corey I never thanked you for how hard you and Clarke tried to save my life, so thanks. But if Murphy had killed you, you wouldn't be able to help people. We uh- we need you Corey. So your not allowed to give up."
