Bellamy's mind drifts to the first time he had stepped foot on land. The air was so fresh it made you breath a little deeper, the sun so bright your eyes almost hurt and the trees, all the damn trees reaching up to the glorious blue sky. Now the air was just air, still breathable, and better then stale space oxygen, but not just the same as before, he couldn't quite place it, but maybe less green would be appropriate. He missed the trees, for some reason trees symbolized hope to him. Maybe how they came from the ground but continued to grown into something remarkable. Now they were all decimated, a stump here and there was all that remained after the fires. It made him depressed, but he trudged on with a stead fast expression, they needed to find the other survivors, and he needed to be a strong leader to keep morale up.

They walked for hours, even into the night, when Raven stubbled over some debris. Her leg in space actually had time to heal with the lack of gravity, and became much stronger after training with echo, but it was never going to be perfect. Everyone stopped walking and waited to see who was going to comment about the incident first. She breaks the silence feeling like a cripple all over again,"Guys I'm fine, just tripped a little. Lets keep going". Bellamy had another suggestion though, "Honestly we been walking hours and now is as good as time as any to make camp for the night, obviously were not close enough to the Green to even try to make it there tonight, let alone search for survivors." Echo is glad and a smile creeps up just a little, she had grown close to Raven while training her in space. She respected her strength, even after being shot in the leg and being pocessed by the AI chip, she never gave up, she never quit, always pushed on. She even found out how to forgive Murphy for shooting her. She was strong in so many ways. Bellamy catches the smile, and send a small nod in Echo's direction, he had made the right call after all.

They form a makeshift tent and find enough sticks for a small fire. The glow lights up the night. Bellamy wouldn't sleep much, he never really did anymore. His dreams almost always ended in terror. He either saw Clarke burning in flames, his sister starving to death, or the countless others he had taken life from haunting him. He sat alone just out side the tent staring up at the moon. It wasn't quite full, giving enough light to illuminate Echo walking toward him. She sits beside him in silence for the longest time. Bell brakes the silence knowing she would contently sit there forever. She also had enough demons haunt her dreams, she knew sometimes silent company was all they you could handle to not fall apart, but yet not feel so alone."You can't sleep either,"it was really more of a statement then a question. "Honestly I'm not sure how I feel being here, I'm supposed to be dead, my people banished me, your people will never trust me, I really don't belong here anymore then I belong in Space." "I told you I would handle my sister, she will learn to deal with the news of you being alive and part our group. Its been 6 years it cant possible still be that relevant." "You don't need to protect me, and definitely don't risk your relationship with your sister for me." "That would be if she is still alive, if anyone is. I know I was sure I heard a voice over that radio, but look around, how can anything still be alive." "Don't lose hope just yet our fearless leader, I know Clarke said to use your mind, but she also cherished your heart, don't let that hopeful heart die."She saw his face drop, shit, shouldn't have said her name, thats what this is about, usually is with him, he would never admit to how much he needed Clarke in his life, how much she meant to him, she wondered if he even knew. He would only ever admit to being ridden with guilt for leaving her. But there was more, any fool could see that.

The way he would look down to earth searching for signs, the day his face lit up after getting the jumbled radio message. Even in the way he keeps her at a distance, to ensure the relations never became a relationship. She takes his hand in hers to prevent him from walking away, like he usually did when faced with thinking about Clarke. Bellamy looks into Echo's eyes, moonlight reflecting in them, she never asked for anything from him, leaving heart to hearts for Raven, but here she was asking for him to be truthful about his pain. "I just really need her to be alive, Ech. I don't think I will be able to live if she's not. I don't want to." She nods, this is the first time he ever admitted as much out loud. "If anyone is still alive its the great Wanheda, she's resourceful and will live to make sure no one has a reason to feel guilty for leaving, its in her blood to think of others first like that." Bellamy hopes she's right and eventuly drifts off, looking to the stars for inspiration.

Clarke decides its time to explore the new arrivals and try to figure out how much of a threat they were. She tries to reign in Madi's excitement of spying on people at seeing them closer. They make a plan to go to the edge of the tree line, the closest place with adequate cover. They dress in fur and foliage to maximize staying hidden, something Madi loves, because it reminds her being a kid with her people. Something that also makes clarke a little sad because it reminds her of her first really passionate love affair with Lexa. Clarke shakes the thought quickly all her love effects ended badly and she had moved on long ago from even having thoughts of a love life again. Madi had filled her heart in a way no one ever had, she would do anything for the girl. Kinda like how Bellamy was with his sister O, she actually understood. She pulls out the binoculars from her bag and looks to the new people, still hoping that her friends might be on that ship somehow and she had not seen them yet. If they were on the ship and not out yet, they would have to be prisoners and that idea was almost worse then them still being in space. Ugh if only she could hear what they were saying down there. Seems like there were two leaders a tall skinny blonde man, and a large in every fashion black haired man. They seemed to be in the head of the circle gathering talking a lot and getting short responses from the crew. After sometime the group spilt up and some began patrolling. A few traveled to the tree line and locating berry bushes a bit away from the trees they were perched in. Clarke and Madi exchange looks, telling each other to be quite and not do anything stupid.

The group consisted of a red haired chubby women prolly a decent bit older then clarke, another women was very muscular and had the longest straight black hair, and third was a man with sandy hair and average build. They learned the black haired women was named Cleo and was family to the leader Jose. The red haired women was in some relationship to the man. Overhearing a conversation about how they hoped to have a camp set up and be able to start a family soon. The man was not so convinced that it would go so smoothly or quickly. They also learned that the people were skeptical that they were the only humans left. They kept on defensive the whole time picking berries often looking into the woods for signs of life. Teasing one other about being scared.

At dusk the entire group of a few hundred returned to there ship for the night. Clarke and Madi make there way back to camp once they are sure no one is moving about. Madi asks a million questions and comes up with million more scenarios involving the the ship people , Clarke is happy for the distraction from the feelings that the excitement was not going to last. They laugh and story tell well into the night.
