Trying to find the trap that Clarke fell into was harder than Bellamy initially imagined. Everything around him looked the same. When the savages were chasing him, he hadn't been able to take note of his surroundings. He mentally slapped himself for that.

Nothing was familiar to him, and he felt like they were walking in circles. Echo was growing impatient. The longer they wandered, the more sly comments she would mutter under her breath. Bellamy resisted the urge to punch her because he knew he needed her. If he was going to find Clarke, he would need some help. Especially help that could speak their language.

"Do you see anything at all that you recognize?" She asked. Bellamy gulped and turned in a circle. He still didn't notice anything familiar. He wanted to scream.

"CLAR-" He screamed but Echo jumped over and covered his mouth shut. "Shut up! Do you honestly want them to find us again? We're no help to the sky girl if we're dead." She hissed. Bellamy wanted desperately to disagree with her, but he couldn't. She was right. They were no good to Clarke if they were dead.

He had to treat this the same way as he treated the rescue of the 47 from Mount Weather. Yeah he cared about them, but he didn't love them the way he loved Clarke. Just pretend it's Jasper or something. He thought. He needed to forget about his emotions.

Echo was walking towards a large tree. She touched the bark with her fingertips and walked around to the other side of the tree. Bellamy heard a piece of bark break and then Echo reappeared. She was holding a broken arrow. "You had to have been here. No one has traveled through these woods in years. This has to be a fresh arrow. Come on, let's go this way." She revealed. Hope filled Bellamy's heart.

Luckily, Echo was a tracker. She followed miniscule drops of blood on the leaves to find the path of grounders that Bellamy shot. Bellamy looked down at the savages that he shot in the stomach and the throat. They were lying dead in a pool of their own blood. This sight of people he had killed didn't upset Bellamy anymore. The longer he was on the ground, the more immune to death he had become.

"This way, I see your footprints in the dirt now." Echo said. Bellamy nodded and followed her. Within a few minutes, they had made it to the grounder that Bellamy shot in the leg. This one was still alive. Bellamy cringed as he watched the man struggle for air. Echo rolled her eyes and pulled an arrow out. Before Bellamy could even blink, Echo shot the savage in the chest.

"Let's go." She said stoically. Bellamy awkwardly scratched his head and then followed her. Echo was very different from any other grounder that Bellamy had ever met. She was sarcastic, intelligent, cunning, and independent. He liked all of that about her. It made her a great ally to have. Without her help inside of Mount Weather, they would have lost the war. Echo was able to convince all of the grounders in the cages that the war between the grounders and sky people was over. She stopped them all from killing Bellamy. She saved his life.

Before he knew it, they were back at the sight of the trap. Bellamy sprinted over to it and pushed the leaves out of the way. He tried to open the hatch but it was sealed shut. The trap was closed for good. Bellamy slapped the metal and stood up.

"She's gone! She's fucking gone! How could I let this happen? I told her I would keep her safe. All of this was for nothing! She's dead! Damnit she's dead by no-" Bellamy screamed until Echo slapped him across the face. Bellamy shut up and rubbed his jaw.

"Get a hold of yourself. If Clarke is anything like what you've told me, she will get out of this one. But that doesn't mean we have time to waste. Come on. I think I know where one of their camps is." She said.

"How would you know?" Bellamy replied coldly. Echo reached into her pocket and pulled up a crumpled map. "One of them had it in their pocket." She said pointing to the two dead-savage grounders below them.

"There's a village southwest of here by 5 miles. It's likely that she is there. If we leave now, we can get their by dusk." Echo explained. Bellamy was especially thankful to have Echo with him now. He needed her to keep him sane. A small smile crept up on his face as he anticipated reuniting with Clarke. Echo was right, Clarke didn't need Bellamy to protect her, she was strong enough to find a way out of this, just like she had in the past.

"Follow me." Echo instructed with the map in her hands. Bellamy obeyed, and they ran through the forest towards the village. Clarke had to be there, she couldn't be dead.


Clarke was stuck in the medical tent with Paion for a long time. While the leader of the savages was deciding her fate, Paion was ordered to keep Clarke with him in case she has a medical emergency. Clarke tried to explain that she was a doctor and could take care of herself, but they wouldn't listen.

The more she thought about it, the less she argued with them. She didn't want to be locked away in that cell again. She'd spent enough time locked up on The Ark, she didn't need to be locked up on Earth.

Clarke watched as Paion organized and cleaned his medical tools. Her arms were tied to the cot so she couldn't run away. If Clarke wasn't fearing for her life, she would have loved to take a nap on the soft and warm fur blankets underneath of her.

"Why can't you people just let me go? Why do you have to kill everyone who tries to make it to Lina?" Clarke asked him. Paion didn't acknowledge her. "I'm talking to you. Why the hell do you have to kill everyone?" Clarke demanded. Paion slammed his supplies onto the table and glared at Clarke. She gulped.

"There is a bounty on sky people. You're lucky we don't hand you over to the twelve nations." Paion seethed.

"And why would you? They cast you all away. Why would you want to help them?" Clarke pressed on.

"Because if you give them any true information about sky people, they will allow you to rejoin the clan you were cast out from." He explained.

"But the twelve nations and the sky people are allies now. We took down the mountain together. Why would they want to capture us?" Clarke added. Paion was shocked.

"You destroyed the mountain?" He asked. Clarke nodded.

"Yes. If you don't believe me, you can see it for yourself." She explained. Paion scoffed.

"If you made it this far, there is no other explanation." He replied. Clarke sighed in relief.

"You never answered my question about Lina. Why won't you let anyone go there?" Clarke reminded him.

"I've already told you too much." He answered. Clarke stomped her foot and it startled him.

"You've barely told me anything! What is with you people and hating us for just existing? What did we ever do to you? From the moment we got here on this god forsaken planet, all you've done is attack us!" Clarke shouted. Paion came over and slapped her.

"Shut up." He demanded. Clarke jumped.

"No. I want answers! I want an explanation for all of this. If I'm going to die. I want to at least know why I've been hunted and tortured since I got here!" She screamed again. Paion rubbed his head.

"You aren't going to die. Not yet at least." He replied. Clarke looked down at her stomach.

"The man in the woods with you. Is he the father?" Paion added. Clarke nodded and a tear fell down her cheek.

"Please, just tell me why you won't let us go to Lina?" She asked one last time.

"Because it's ours."


Octavia awoke the sound of Raven shaking her. She almost screamed but Raven covered her mouth. She had no idea how Raven got into her tent without her guards noticing. Lincoln was still asleep next to Octavia so Raven signalled for her to remain silent. Octavia snuck out of bed and grabbed her brother's jacket. She wrapped the jacket around her hair and snuck out the back of the tent behind Raven. Raven lead her deep into the woods. It was the middle of the night.

"What's going on?" Octavia whispered. "I was on my way over here and I saw the ice nation camping in the woods outside of Ton DC. Apparently some girl who was cast out from the one of the clans saw Bellamy and Clarke and reported it to them." Raven explained.

"Why would someone do that?" Octavia responded through tears. "Because there's a bounty on sky people. If a person gives any true information, they will let that person back into their original clan." Raven answered. Octavia tried to remain calm.

"So what happens now?" Octavia asked. "The ice nation is here to capture you for treason. That's why we have to go, now. They are sending scouts tomorrow to capture Bellamy and Clarke. We have to follow them and warn them. We don't have any time to waste. Let's go!" Raven said as she tugged on Octavia' arm. Octavia felt like her feet were glued to the ground. No, this couldn't be happening.

"Raven, I'm the commander. I can't just leave." Octavia said.

"Octavia, if you stay here they will kill you and then they will kill your brother. It's over. We have to go. Wick and Abby are waiting at the drop ship for us. We have to go." Raven said. Octavia looked back at the lights from Ton DC. She would have to leave Lincoln.

Suddenly, Lincoln appeared. "What's going on?" He asked Raven. Raven told him exactly what she told Octavia. Lincoln grabbed onto Octavia's hand and reassured her that Raven was right. Octavia looked at both of them and and then began to walk.

"Okay, let's get out of here."
