"Octavia please. Just give us a moment to explain. Things are different now."

"Yes they are. Very different. She is a traitor. And she leaves or she fights to the death. Her choice."

"Don't do this.."

"I'm sorry big brother. But I told you that you are Wonkru or you are the enemy of Wonkru. I don't want you to be my enemy. I banished her and stand by that. She leaves or dies. I give you five minutes. And then you choose."

Bellamy looked from his sister to Echo. He knew there was no reasoning with Octavia. He pulled Echo off to the side and gestured for his friends to follow.

"Clarke.." he beckoned her with his head when he realized she hadn't followed. She took Madi's hand and walked to join the circle of friends.

So what are we going to do?" Harper asked looking around the group.

"We can't make you all come with us, but Octavia is forcing our hand. We need to leave."

"Bellamy, I can fight her." Echo insisted.

"You are not fighting my sister Echo. We will just leave and find our own place to make camp. Then we'll find a way to get to Raven, Emory, and Murphy."

"Well we're all going too. We're a family. We have to stick together. Right Madi?" Monti asked nudging Madi on the shoulder.

"Right!" She smiled at Monti.

"Madi and I aren't going with you." Madi looked up at Clarke wide eyed.

"What?" Bellamy asked.

"We aren't going with you.."

"What? Clarke. Come on. Stay with us. You'll never make it alone in this camp. I can tell Octavia already has her sights set on Madi. We can help you protect her."

"I'll never make it alone... I'll never... do you even hear yourself?" Clarke felt her anger boiling over.

"We've been ALONE for six years Bellamy!" She yelled. She took a deep, calming breath and lowered her voice.

"Six years..." she said with a shake of her head. Bellamy felt his heart break at the pain he could see in her eyes. She broke eye contact with him and looked at the ground. "I can take care of Madi. I've been doing it for some time now. Without anyone's help. I don't need you anymore." Clarke said. She glanced at the group behind him. They were all avoiding her eyes.

She knew he wouldn't like it, but she can't be around them. It would hurt to much. She missed her friends, but Madi is her top priority. She would take care of Madi and keep her safe. And if that means staying with the people from the bunker then that's what she'll do. She'll keep an eye on Octavia and everything will be fine.

"But Clarke.."

"No, Madi. We're staying. I hope you all stay safe. And I hope you get to the others. But this is where we part ways." Clarke started to walk away pulling Madi with her.

"You are not leaving me again!" Bellamy grabbed her arm. Clarke's eyes shot up to his in surprise to see his own surprised expression. There was a long pause as they just looked at each other.

"Us. You're not leaving us again." He corrected. He ran a hand through his hair and sighed. "Look, you told Madi we were going to come back, be a family, and that we'd all be together. And this is the only way we can do that. Please Clarke. I know you don't need me, or anyone, to help you. You never have. But maybe we need you. You know this land better than anyone on Earth. Literally. You belong with your family. You both do. Come with us."

"Bellamy..."

"Please Clarke." Madi looked up at her with pleading eyes. The same expression that rested on Bellamy's face. She was shocked at how similar they looked in that moment and found herself nodding.

"Yes!" Madi cheered.

"We're wasting time." Echo said looking back and forth between Clarke and Bellamy. "So we're all leaving?" She checked.

"Yes. We're leaving. All of us." Bellamy locked eyes with Clarke again. "Together?"

"Together." Clarke replied with a nod. Neither of them noticed the way Echo was watching them.
