Disclaimer: No -_-
Octavia burst into the medical bay. Her hair was dishevelled and her eyes puffy from the many tears she had shed already that day. Clarke looked up from the grounder she tending too and made her way over.
Upon seeing Clarke she seemed to become more frantic and gripped the grieving girl roughly around the shoulders, "Where is she?"
Clarke's drooping eyes held the tears she had yet to spill and she was still recovering from the shock herself. She swallowed and opened her mouth but couldn't quite get the words out. The rough treatment from Octavia wasn't helping either.
The lack of response only seemed to enrage her, "Clarke I asked you a question god damn it!"
Abbey was watching them and decided to intervene. Walking over she pulled Clarke away from Octavia's grasp and into a gentle hug.
"Octavia-"
"Will someone just answer me already? Where is she Abbey? Where's Raven?"
The two Griffin's shared a look.

48 hours earlier…
Tied to a shallow heart
Why does he want to bring me where he goes
Oh and to find out the reasons why
It's enough to make you wanna try
For one last night
Clarke opened her eyes. The darkness had been bliss compared to this, compared to the reality she knew she had to face…
But she has to try. Even if she died, at least she would die with them. She had to try.
Ghosts and silhouettes
They take a piece of me, they want it all
Oh but to wait in an empty room
With the feeling that is closing in
Lexa groaned as her body reacted to the chemicals running through it. She wasn't chained to the chair she would be writhing on the floor. Any moment of respite from the pain was marred by Cage electrocuting her. Her screams reverberated around them but that only seemed to cause Cage's smile to grow.
I had a dream I was dying
But I found nobody there
And if one last night is all that we've been given
Let's live it like we care
When Octavia came to she was hung by her hands against the wall between two members of the 100. They were whimpering and watching the table where another had long since drifted away from the pain of the drill. Her head whipped around frantically before her eyes met the pair she had been desperate to find.
For one last night
For one last night
Raven watched as Octavia's eyes met hers and despite their current situation she found reassurance there. Raven wasn't one to back down and she raised her chin defiantly, causing pride to spread across Octavia's face as she nodded back.
Broken upon the rocks
Let the beating waves
Come drag me down
Oh but to find out the reasons why
It's enough to make you wanna try
For one last night
Abbey looked around at the kids. Their fear evident and she looked to Kane hoping to find some hope but he looked just as horrified as her. They were running low on Kids.
I had a dream I was dying
But I found nobody there
And if one last night is all that we've been given
Let's live it like we care
Cage entered and nobody could help their gasps at the sight of the commander being dragged in limp behind him. She was unconscious but strung up between Abbey and Raven.
For one last night
For one last night
For one last night
Raven frowned at the sight of the commander and looked to Octavia who nodded grimly. Abbey was examining Lexa for life threatening injuries whilst Kane seemed to have a new hope enter his eyes.
Bellamy entered the lock room where Jasper, Maya and Monty were hidden. They shared a look before Maya lead the way to where they hoped Abbey would be waiting. He handed Jasper a gun and together they aimed.
Clarke had pulled herself up and made her way towards her last hope.
They would fight.

Echo was wearing a similar outfit to Lexa when they faced Pauna and that fact alone would have been enough to set Clarke off if she hadn't already shoved her feelings away. She burst into the recovering warrior's tent when she came to the realisation that she was in fact her last hope.
Maybe that's what scared Clarke most of. That finally Cage had what he always wanted… He had them all and Clarke was left on the outside to suffer and wait for the massacre to end.
Echo looked up but shared the same blank expression that Lexa had so often graced her with. She didn't seem surprised to see her, "Clarke"
"You have to help me"
She half expected her to argue. Say Lexa was giving her life for her people and they should honour that but she didn't. Instead she strapped on her last piece of armour and sheathed her sword.
"What do you think this is all for?"
Clarke nodded as relief flowed through her and Echo stepped forward, her eyes were unnerving as they seemed to search Clarke. She was taller than her and Clarke imagined that she was even taller than Lexa, "What's the plan Skygirl?"
"Tunnels" was all she said before leading the way out of the tent.

Abbey watched them pull another body from the room. They weren't drilling right now and Cage was left alone with two guards.
Kane spoke up, "Where are you going?"
Cage stepped towards him, "I have a speech to make for my people. We'll be back soon don't worry"
They left the room and Harper burst into tears. Miller silenced her with a soothing voice as Octavia and Raven seemed to have a silent conversation across the room. Abbey turned to look at the commander.
Sweat was coating her skin and the dried blood was covering her face. Her armour at been removed and she was in leather pants and a thin black under shirt. Fresh blood could be seen from under her shit and Abbey could only imagine what was hidden under the shirt.
Raven caught her gaze, "Is she alright?"
"I don't know what he's done to her, I can't say"
"Clarke's going to go mental" Octavia said sombrely.
For the first time since coming to Raven took a look at who was in the room, "Where is Clarke?"
Abbey shook her head, "I don't know. God I hope they haven't done something too her"
"Outside"
Four heads turned to Lexa as her blood shot eyes opened. She blinked and squinted at the harsh light, her voice croaked out again, "She was outside the door"
"Was she okay?" Abbey watched Lexa scrunch her eyes and shake her head, moaning in pain, "Lexa please! Was Clarke okay?"
"Yes" She croaked out before it turned into a coughing fit.
Silence settled over the room. Kane leant back and tried to wrack his brain for an idea; any plan that could get them out of this. Octavia was twisting her wrists trying to find a give in the cuffs holding her. Any give that she could use to pull her hands free. Raven was watching her intently with a sombre expression. She was busy trying to balance out her leg, she knew that if she could feel something there it would be extremely painful… She half wished she could feel something. Even if it was pain.
Abbey was trying to focus her energies on the room. The silence was unbearable for her and she knew that if she didn't distract herself then her mind would wander to Clarke… Abbey sighed and tried to manoeuvre herself in the chains to face Lexa.
The commander's eyes gave away what they normally wouldn't and Abbey couldn't help but wonder what they had done to her in that short amount of time to make her break down in this way.
"Calm down, your injuries could be harsh and you might irritate them if you panic… what did he do to you Lexa?"
She almost didn't dare ask it but the medic inside her knew that it was essential for knowing the cause of her discomfort.
"Reaper" was the only hint she gave her.
But it was enough.
The reaper drug attacked the nerves and if Cage had used a big enough dose then it would still be running through her veins. She was herself but the pain was evident on her face and the sweat coating her body. Abbey looked closer and for the first time noticed the slight shake of her muscles and that wasn't from nerves.
"What's wrong with her?"
Kane had noticed the change in the commander as well it appeared. Abbey leant away from Lexa and towards Kane, "He's overdosed her. She could have a heart attack any minute… Something tells me Cage won't save her"
"I don't know about that. He has as much to gain from her alive than he does her death"
Before she could reply the door opened again and Cage entered. He looked around at them all as the guards and doctors entered behind him.
"Sorry for the delay… Carry on"
He moved into the shadows of the room with Emerson at his side and watched the proceedings as the doctors moved to pick the next patient. It took them only a moment.
The head doctor moved over to Raven and she glared back, "This one"
Octavia's cries were loudest of all as they moved to grab her.

Clarke and Echo stood on the opposite side of the door. She prayed to god that Bellamy was on his way.
"Is this the only way in?"
"No" Clarke admitted remembering the discussion with Lexa not too long ago, "But this way won't get us killed before we can take some mountain men with us"
Echo gave her an 'I approve' look just as the door opened. She raised her gun instinctively but there was no need because the stony face of Bellamy was what greeted her.
She gasped his name as she was pulled into a hug. She could have cried when Jasper and Monty pulled her into a hug a moment later.
She separated from the hug and sent Maya a thank you before turning around. She was shocked to find Echo and Bellamy embracing, they separated quickly, all eyes turned to Clarke and she knew what she had to do.
"What's the plan Princess?"
Bellamy smiled weakly at her and she realised now how truly tired they all were. They learnt too young that there are worse things in this world than death.
She looked between them all and fell into the role she was born to play, "The same as before. Lexa's army was only ever a distraction and now they're gone but if Cage is stupid enough to believe that we won't fight back then he's got another thing coming because that's exactly what we're going to do"
They were watching her with wrapped intention, even Echo, "We need to get to Dante Wallace. He's our key in this, our leverage; if we can get to him then we have something over Cage. After that we need to get to the control room that way we'll know where everyone is"
Bellamy nodded and looked to Maya who piped up, "I know where Dante is – he's in your cell if you remember where that is?"
Clarke nodded, "Monty knows where the control room is"
Monty confirmed this and Clarke felt a tiny part of the weight on her shoulders lift, "Alright, Bellamy, Echo, Monty, I want you with me to find Cage and the prisoners. We'll head to the control straight away – Maya and Jasper, can you find Dante and bring him to us?"
They nodded and set off instantly.
Bellamy pulled her back slightly, "I hope you know what you're doing Princess"
Clarke gazed between the four of them and smiled weakly as she lifted her gun, "I've never known what I was doing"

It took electric shocks and punching to pin Raven to the table and even then she was putting up a fight.
Octavia pulled herself up by the cuffs and kicked a man to the ground and rendered him unconscious. They seemed to realise how much damage she was doing because they called more guards to help hold her back. Even Lexa needed be restrained when she caused a man to hit himself with the electrical pulse instead of Raven.
It took double the doctors and triple the guards but finally Raven was chained down. She looked to Octavia who was still fighting against her restraints for strength. Their eyes met just as the drill pierced her skin.
Lexa snarled at Cage as Raven's cries ripped through the air mixed with Octavia's calls.
Everyone was shouting at Cage and it was chaos. Kane and Abbey were trying to appeal to his better nature whilst Miller was still trying to calm Harper whose cries had increased. Octavia was keeping her eyes locked with Raven's as if she was afraid the girl would give up if she broke it. Lexa had broken free from one her guards and was attempting to kick the doctor currently drilling into Raven's side.
Through the chaos and the terror somehow they all heard it. Somehow the voice broke through the noise.
"Cage"
Lexa dropped her legs, Octavia stopped her movements, Abbey and Kane were silenced, even the doctor stopped drilling causing Raven's cries to quiet into slow sobs.
The silence was deafening. Cage himself seemed frozen.
Nobody reacted until the voice came through Emerson's radio again.
"Cage I'm inside the mountain. I can see you… and I have your father. Let. My. People. Go"
Nobody could miss the threat.
Whoops I didn't keep it to three... We all knew that was going to happen, I'm so sorry :)
Like I said before don't hate me too much and please keep the reviews coming they're my reaper drug... in a good way
