Murphy and Echo are sat together on the steps of the small castle talking.
"I'd say I wanna go home but I don't even know where home is" Murphy said.
"You and me both, Murphy. I've lived here since I was 8, forced to be a spy. I've watched many people come and go over the years. Children massacred. Natblidas hunted. Villages burnt. Azgeda has never really felt like home" Echo told Murphy.
"That's tough. My dad stole medicine for me on the Ark when I got sick, the medicine wouldn't have helped anyway but he tried. He was caught and floated. My mom began drinking after that, blamed me for my dads death. I found her dead one day she choked on her own vomit. Her last words to me were that I got my killed" Murphy informed Echo, his eyes filling with tears as he spoke.
Echo hesitantly placed her hand on his back and rubbed it slowly in an attempt to comfort him.
"You don't have many friends do you?" Murphy questioned.
"No. In this kind of life love is weakness" Echo stated.
"Didn't you have parents?" Murphy asked. "I did. They're dead" Echo said.
"We can make our own family, right?" Murphy replied.
"I hope that's true" Echo admitted.
"Why can't you be my guard instead of Ontari? Crazy bitch pours freezing water on me every morning to wake me" Murphy grunted.
"I would happily be your guard, Murphy. Nia wouldn't allow it" Echo said.
"Nia's a bitch too" Murphy muttered. Echo smirked slightly.
Jasper and Harper walked back through the gates of the camp to find a frantic Clarke and Raven.
"Harper!" Clarke yelled before storming over to her.
"What?" Harper asked snappily.
"Where are your friends?" Raven asked as she joined them.
"I have no idea what your talking about" Harper lied.
"What's going on?" Jasper asked.
"What's going is Harper here took you out of camp and Sterling distracted Raven and I while Miller and Monroe stole Anya and ran away" Clarke informed Jasper.
"What are you talking about, Clarke?" Harper questioned.
"Where have they went, Harper?" Raven asked.
"This is all news to me. I took Jasper a walk in the woods because I wanted to have some fun for once, okay?" Harper said before walking away.
"It's obvious. They've went to get Bellamy and Finn" Jasper stated.
"They're so screwed" Raven muttered. "So are we" Clarke sighed.
Octavia is collecting water with Serena.
"So you've raised your sister?" Octavia questioned.
"Our older sister Mira was a Natblida, she brought us here 9 years ago after our parents were executed. She died 4 years ago" Serena replied.
"How old were you?" Octavia asked. "17" Serena said.
"That's my age. What age is your sister?" Octavia queried.
"16" Serena told her.
"And you?"
"19" Serena answered.
"I have a brother. He's 23, his name is Bellamy" Octavia told Serena.
"Where is he?" Serena asked.
"Back with my people. I think" Octavia said.
"You think? Doesn't seem very certain" Serena pointed out.
"I got injured during the battle between Skaikru and Trikru, my brother let me go with Lincoln and stayed to fight. I don't know if he made it or if my people won" Octavia explained.
"Aren't you returning?" Serena asked.
"Lincoln wants to stay here" Octavia told Serena.
"You don't" Serena noticed.
"No. I want to go back to my brother and my friends" Octavia admitted.
"I would like to return home too" Serena said.
"You've lived here for 9 years isn't this your home?" Octavia asked.
"It is but I want to return to my true home. Shallow Valley" Serena explained.
"I hope you do" Octavia said.
"Perhaps we could help each other? We both leave and return to our homes" Serena suggested.
"I'll think about it. Lincoln really wants this" Octavia replied.
"But do you? That's the question" Serena said before walking off.
Octavia looked over to the trees at the other end of the sea and looked away sadly.
Miller, Monroe and Sterling are stood at the bridge with Anya.
"Where the hell is Harper?" Miller asked angrily.
"She'll be here" Monroe insisted.
"If she doesn't come what do we do?" Sterling asked.
"Go on without her" Miller snapped.
Harper appeared looking guilty. "Harper? What's wrong?" Monroe asked.
Clarke appeared from behind Harper with her gun pointed at Miller.
"What the hell do you think you're doing?" Clarke snapped.
Miller passed Anya to Monroe and pointed his own gun at Clarke.
"Are you gonna shoot me?" Clarke asked.
"You threatened Harper" Miller spat.
"You 4 and Jasper are our 5 best gunners! You can't just abandon us to embark on a suicide mission" Clarke argued.
"We're saving Bellamy and Finn. Isn't what you want, Clarke?" Harper questioned.
"I want Finn and Bellamy back here safe but I'm not losing anybody else to do that. We will find a way to have peace by figuring it out together. Anya is a big part of that" Clarke said with a glance at the grounder leader.
Harper removed the gag from Anya. "Will you help us?" Monroe asked.
"Please Anya, we don't want to live in war. We want peace. I know you must feel the same otherwise you would have never shown up to the meeting" Clarke said.
"You must let me go. If you let me go I will convince the commander to form a truce. If you keep me captive anymore I will never help you" Anya told them.
"Let her go" Clarke instructed Monroe. "What? No way!" Miller snapped and he grabbed the rope holding Anya.
"Miller, this is our only chance to get Finn and Bellamy back. We have no other choice now" Clarke told Miller.
"Clarke if we let her go there's no guarantee she'll do what she says" Harper pointed out.
"Your right. We don't but keeping her captive is doing no good for any of us. We're not gonna kill her so we have to let her go and hope she will honour her word" Clarke stated.
"I will" Anya insisted. "Just let her go, man. It's over" Sterling said.
Miller let go off the rope with a grunt then he began walking back to camp.
Clarke untied Any and helped her to her feet.
"Please talk to your commander about our truce" Clarke said as Anya looked prepared to leave.
"I will" Anya replied before running off into the woods.
Zak entered the gates of Azgeda looking extremely nervous he made his way through the crowd and found Echo at one of the stalls.
"Zak, your back so soon?" Echo questioned before grabbing his arm and leading him into a secluded tunnel.
"There's more Skaikru there" Zak told Echo.
"More? How many more?" Echo asked. "Two. Men. They caught me" Zak explained.
"You'll have to tell Nia" Echo replied. "But they caught me" Zak said.
"I suppose you can miss that small detail out" Echo sighed.
"Really?" Zak questioned. Echo nodded.
Zak threw his arms around Echo and hugged her tightly.
Echo smirked a little before patting his back awkwardly.
"Don't make me rethink it" Echo teased. Zak grinned then he walked away.
"Not very professional, Echo" Orla hissed as she appeared from outside the tunnel.
"What do you want, Orla?" Echo asked irritably.
"A mission. I could have easily invaded trikru without being caught by sky people" Orla replied.
"You keep your mouth shut about that" Echo told Orla.
"Or what?" Orla questioned.
"You do not want to make an enemy of me, Orla. I'm part of the royal guard and your seda. Bare that in mind" Echo warned Orla.
"Oh I have. I want a mission, when Zak reports about the skaikru being there you should suggest sending someone to spy on Skaikru and tell her I'm the best spy you have" Orla instructed Echo.
"Why would I do that?" Echo asked Orla.
"Because you care about Zak. Lord knows why but you do and if I tell Nia he failed she'll have his head" Orla stated.
"Fine. I'll do it but you should know that nobody likes an evil little bitch" Echo spat before walking away from Orla.
"You speaking from person experience?" Orla called after Echo.
Jasper and Raven are sat in the dropship together talking.
"We never found Monty. I know what everyone thinks. They think he's dead but I just don't believe it somethings telling me he's alright" Jasper said.
"I'm sure he is alright. Monty's a smart kid" Raven stated.
"Yeah. Way smarter than I ever was" Jasper muttered.
"Shut up, Jasper! You are smart" Raven replied.
"Yeah that smart I let Harper trick me" Jasper scoffed.
"She really does like you, it's obvious" Raven told Jasper.
"You really think so?" Jasper questioned.
"I know it. She's totally into you" Raven stated.
Jasper smirked then tried to hide it.
"The feelings mutual" Raven realised.
"No. Not exactly. I mean she's great and all but it's just with Monty being missing and all this grounder stuff. It feels rushed and wrong" Jasper explained.
"She's a nice girl. If you like her you should go for it" Raven said.
Clarke walked into the dropship looking frustrated.
"Clarke? What happened?" Raven asked.
"We let Anya go. Miller, Monroe, Sterling and Harper are back" Clarke informed Raven.
"Bellamy and Finn?" Jasper questioned.
"Didn't get to them. I found them at the bridge. Anya said she'll talk to her commander for us" Clarke told them.
"You believed her?!" Jasper exclaimed.
"Honestly? No idea. If she's lying they'll probably attack. If she's telling the truth maybe we can just put this behind us and get on with our lives" Clarke said as she sat down on the floor.
"If they attack we're gonna need to delegate positions and hand out weapons. Up security. There's no Bellamy this time and Finn was the next best thing" Jasper stated.
"Miller. They all listen to him" Raven reminded them.
"Miller and I aren't exactly on the best terms. To say he hated my guys would be an understatement right now" Clarke sighed.
"I'll talk to him if it comes to it. You two get some rest, I'm on watch" Jasper said before leaving.
Murphy, Ontari and Zak are stood before Nia who is sat in her throne.
"Like I said Bellamy is the leader alongside Clarke, they rule the camp. Finn's a peacemaker he avoids war at all causes. Bellamy lives to protect his sister there is not a thing he wouldn't do for her. He cares about everyone at the camp and is willing to go to war when he has to. He's a fighter" Murphy told Nia.
"Interesting. Zak pretend to help them escape then I want you to kill Finn and bring me Bellamy" Nia ordered.
"Sha, Reina" Zak obliged.
"My Queen do you really trust Orla with such a big mission?" Ontari questioned.
"Echo said she is the best spy she has. I trust Echo" Nia said.
Echo entered with Orla.
"Ai Reina" Orla greeted Nia as she bowed.
"She's unmarked" Nia noticed. "Like me" Echo stated.
"I will be near the camp injured. They will find me and if they take me back I will make them believe I am a friend. I will find out everything about them and when the evidence is sufficient I will return and help you wage war on them" Orla told Nia.
Nia grinned with an evil glint in her eye. "Good choice, Echo"
Ontari glared at Orla.
"Zak, you have work to do. As do you Orla. Make your queen proud" Nia announced.
Both young spies bowed before leaving.
"Echo I must praise you on your training. Both young spies are doing well. Perhaps you will achieve something worthwhile in your life" Nia said.
Echo looked to the ground. Murphy looked over at her sympathetically.
"Leave me" Nia instructed them.
The three left the room quickly.
Murphy caught up with Echo and placed a hand on her shoulder.
"Hey, don't listen to her"
Echo smiled thankfully at him and continued walking.
"Murphy, we're going back to my room" Ontari announced.
Murphy looked at Echo pleadingly.
"Actually he should train with me. Queen Nia agrees" Echo lied.
Ontari looked at Echo in disbelief. "Really?"
"Go ahead and ask if you don't believe me" Echo challenged Ontari.
"Very well. Keep the animal" Ontari spat before storming off.
"Good save. Two in one day. You'll be Saint Echo soon enough" Murphy joked.
Echo rolled her eyes but smiled all the same.
Octavia and Lincoln were cuddled up together in a bed.
"Lincoln, do the other people stay here permanently?" Octavia asked.
"Yeah. Mostly. Why do you ask?" Lincoln responded.
"It's just I noticed Cade and Serena are around my age. Maybe they'd wanna leave some day?" Octavia suggested.
"They can't" Lincoln said. "Why not?" Octavia questioned.
"Luna promised their older sister she'd keep them safe. She believes that letting them go is putting them in danger" Lincoln explained.
"That's ridiculous. It should be their choice" Octavia stated.
"Luna is very honourable. She sticks to her word. Mira was a good friend of hers and she promised to take care of her sisters. She will make sure they are safe at all costs" Lincoln told Octavia.
"I guess that's understandable but maybe they should be able to venture out once in a while. It can't be nice being trapped here all the time" Octavia said.
"It's peaceful" Lincoln reminded Octavia.
"It's secluded and small. Peaceful? Yeah but I'll be at peace when I get back to my brother or he comes to me" Octavia replied.
"You will meet again one day, Octavia. I believe that" Lincoln murmured before leaning up to kiss Octavia.
Octavia smiled against Lincoln's lips then kissed him back.
Finn and Bellamy are in a room with two four poster beds.
Finn is lying with his legs against the wall and his head hanging off the bed.
Bellamy is sat on his bed running his hands through his hair.
"A chance to wash would be great" Bellamy grunted.
"Tell me about it. I've never smelled worse" Finn groaned.
"You think we can trust, Zak?" Bellamy asked Finn.
"Do you?" Finn retorted.
"I asked first" Bellamy stated.
"Not really but he's our only way out of here. This truce doesn't seem to be happening anytime soon" Finn said.
"I agree. We use him to get out of here then we get back home" Bellamy replied.
"We can find Octavia too" Finn told Bellamy.
"There's nothing I want more but I know she's safe. That's enough for right now" Bellamy said.
"Lincoln will definitely protect her. He really loves her" Finn stated.
Bellamy nodded.
"I hope Raven pulled through. I know Clarke would've done her best but it could've failed" Finn said as he sat up.
"Raven's tough. I'm sure she's fine" Bellamy reassured Finn.
"You think they found Monty?" Finn questioned.
"Hopefully. He's a good kid" Bellamy responded.
"Zak said we meet tomorrow at first light. Let's just hope for the best" Finn muttered.
"Yeah. Hope. That's all we got" Bellamy mumbled.
