Earth Skills Part 3
We had been walking for a while, I was a great tracker and could have found their friend way before but some people that came along on the mission, Bellamy and Murphy. I wasn't sure how they'd react if I came out of nowhere, so I let Finn be the tracker to find Jasper.
"Hey, how do you know this is the right way?" Murphy asked impatiently as Finn looked around for the way to Jasper, they found blood on a bunch of rocks and a broken tree branch that had some blood coated on it.
"We don't. Spacewalker thinks he's a tracker." Bellamy said a little to enthusiastically as if he was trying to piss someone off. And he was doing that indefinitely to me, I wanted to punch him in his stupid face for being a stupid reckless pain in the ass for trying to get the rest of his people up on the Ark killed and for not taking the danger that the Earth posed to everyone seriously. Triku could kill them any moment they wanted if provoked, the Mountain Men could come and kill them all, Reapers, Acid fog, Pauna, you name it and it could kill every single last one of them and then they'd actually all be dead.
"It's called cutting sign. Fourth-year Earth skills. He's good." Wells complemented Finn.
"You want to keep it down or should I paint a target in your backs?" Finn said looking back to Bellamy, Wells, and Murphy. Finn went over to a broken branch and examined it and Clarke came over to, to examine it.
I heard a distant moan and I took out my sword yet again, just in case there was any one guarding the trap.
"What the hell was that?" Murphy asked.
"Now would be a good time to take out that gun, Bell." She told him and he took it out and they walked into the clearing ahead.
The warriors that had take him had strung him up in a tree to die but they had saved his life but what looks like putting coagulant on his wound to stop the bleeding and prevent infection.
"Jasper. Oh, my god." Clarke said and moved closer carefully.
"Clarke, be careful." Bellamy called out and Clarke looked back to him and gave a small smile.
"Jasper. What the hell is this." She said again and the ground gave out from beneath her but she was caught by Bellamy. I wanted to run out and help him pull her out but I stayed hidden just in case they needed help at all from unknown assailants.
"Clarke! Get her up! Pull her up!" Finn yelled and everybody scrambled to pull her up. "You okay?" he asked.
She nodded, "Yeah. We need to get him down." She told them focusing on the task at hand. I so wanted to help them, but since Bellamy had a gun I didn't want to spook him.
"I'll climb up there and cut the vines." Finn said walking towards the tree looking for any more traps that could be around it and cause him to fall to his death.
"Yeah, yeah, I'm with you." Wells said.
Finn stopped and shook his head, "No. Stay with Clarke. And watch him." He motioned over to Bellamy who looked at Finn quite annoyed.
"I wouldn't harm Clarke, Spacewalker. She's my girlfriend, I mean she may not be happy with me right now but she loves me." Bellamy shot back to Finn. I smiled Clarke and Bellamy had started dating on the Ark, how cute. It made me think back to when I found love last time a few years ago and how that was torn away from me in the last war.
Finn looked at him, his eyes filled with hatred and he looked over to Murphy. "You. Let's go." Both of them went over to the tree and climbed up and started using the knives that they had made and were cutting down Jasper as we speak.
A few minutes passed and I watched around as the group worked to get there friend when a low growling could be heard. Ahh shit, of course it would be animal that would kill them and not a grounder. I saw a panther climb out of the bushes and I moved forward to kill it but I was grabbed from behind, a hand was shoved over my mouth and I struggled and everything began to grow heavy and I realised someone had drugged me.
The kept a tight grip on me and a hand shoved over my mouth and I struggled to breathe. I started to stumble and the person lowered me to the ground. This was not how this was supposed to go. My eyes fluttered but I was just able to make out a Trikru Warrior standing over me with rope in his hand before everything faded into darkness.
