Rayne's Point of View
"Rayne…" I heard Octavia say to me, her voice sounded horse and broken. I opened my eyes to see her next to me, her entire body looked broken as she lay there. I rolled onto my back and looked up at the sky in time to see pink streaks fly up, cracking high up in the sky.
"They're sending a sign up to the Ark." She told me.
"Bellamy did it then… he gave in." I whispered. "Are you ok?" I asked her.
"I think so. My head hurts, everything is kind of fuzzy and my leg hurts really bad. Are you all right?" She asked me. "I'm fine." I reassured her turning my attention back to the pink flares.
"Rayne…" She said her voice even quieter than it was before. "Don't say anything look off to your left…" She continued. Slowly turning my head I noticed there was a man kneeling in the brush watching over us.
He was a grounder; he had to be he was much older than anyone on the drop ship, unless he is the person who came down on the drop ship. "Oh…." I began to say softly.
I knew I couldn't move my entire body was numb my shoulder was defiantly dislocated. I think my one arm might be broken; I touched my head and felt a water substance, concussion too. Great, and neither of us could move who knew how long we'd be out here we needed help.
"Oh…" I said again turning my head she was unconscious.
I looked over to the man who was sitting in the bushes near by, I tried to stay as calm as possible. Till he got up and made his way over to me, that was when everything had gone dark.
Bellamy's Point of View
"Octavia! Rayne!" I yelled as I held the torch in my hand walking through the camp looking for the girls. I had ended up asking Murphy where they where, he told me he hadn't seen them since the day before.
They never returned to camp after they parted ways from me in the forest, my heart raced at the thought of them being out there alone, or worse.
I started opening tents to look inside maybe they where in one of the other tents sleeping. No such luck; I walked over to the one tent I knew I would likely get help from. I looked at the blonde as she sat there looking at me as I knelt to the ground.
"You're up?" I asked her,
"Yea. Knowing that hundreds of people might be dying on the Ark makes it pretty hard to sleep." And there goes my urge to ask her for help. She always had to turn everything into something horrible or depressing. Had to argue with me every chance she could get, she challenged me and I hated it.
"Raven's flares will work." I told her sternly.
"Yea well her radio would've worked better." She sassed me crossing her arms over her chest.
I swallowed hard; "Have you seen Octavia or Rayne?" I asked her.
The mention of Rayne seemed to cause her face to soften. She looked like she was thinking about what I had asked her. My heart sunk into my stomach, she hadn't either I knew it. They where somewhere in the forest alone with no food or water.
"No, but it's Octavia, and if she's with Rayne she'll be safe. They're probably just walking the perimeter having girl talk. They seem to do that a lot." She said not seeming all to happy that Rayne and Octavia where so close to each other.
"Or maybe they're out in the butterfly fields or something." She continued.
"Clarke." I said my voice dripping with desperation. "I've checked the entire camp, looked in all the places they like to go. They aren't here." I told her as she took in a deep breath.
She looked around quickly "Ok. I'll help you find them." She told me. "Let's check everywhere again, maybe there's somewhere you over looked." She said.
I looked everywhere, her insisting I missed something just pissed me off, here I am talking Clarke into looking for my sister and my girlfriend and she's acting like I'm an idiot.
"You go to the drop ship." She told me, "I'll check the rest of the tents." She finished as she and I parted our ways.
"Thank you," I said softly.
"Don't thank me. I'm not doing this for you. I'm doing it for them." She said causing me to roll my eyes slightly, hopefully she was aware that still meant she was doing this for me.
Rayne's Point of View
I let my eyes open slowly, my entire body was in a crippling amount of pain. I looked around my surroundings to see Octavia next to my feet lying on her back arms above her head. She looked like she was just waking up as well. "Oh?" I asked as I tried sitting up pain shooting through my shoulder and arm.
"Rayne." She said as she too began to sit up. I looked around where we were; it seemed to be some sort of cave. There was a fire in front of us. There were gadgets, toys, and weapons all over the place.
Where we in a grounders den? Did that man take us here as leverage or slaves? "Are you all right?" I asked her again.
"No, I'm in so much pain." She said crawling towards me. I pulled her into a hug, "We're going to be ok, and we just have to stay together." I told her.
"I wasn't planning on leaving yours, Rayne we need to find a way out of here." She continued telling me. I just nodded at her, while looking around for anything we could use as a weapon.
"Let me look at your leg, you said it was in a lot of pain?" I asked her.
"Yea, it is." I slid over to see her knee closer; there was so much blood and dirt I couldn't tell if her knee was broken out of the skin. "Rayne your arm in cut open." She said causing me to look at my arm that had been causing me pain. She was right it was cut open.
"There are books everywhere," She commented, "And toys look." She said. I had already seen them, but she was right. The grounders must have been collecting things from before the blasts.
"Your knee is –" I was cut off by the sound of approaching footsteps. Octavia looked at me as fear filled both of our eyes, she gripped onto my arm tightly.
The grounder we had seen in the brush entered the cave we were in with a metal rod with an arrow tip at the end, it was boiling hot by the looks of it. Steam pulsing off of it, it was yellow and red in color. I looked at Octavia pulling her closer to me, "Please, please don't hurt us!" She called to him.
"We'll do anything please don't…" I begged.
"Please don't…. no… no! Please!" Octavia begged as he pulled her out of my arm, burning the skin around her broken knee as he pushed the bone back in place. She passed out from the pain as the man looked to me next, "My arm is cut open, and my shoulder it's dislocated." I told him; clearly he was trying to help us not kill us.
He just looked at me kneeling next to me as he took my cut arm, he picked up some mixture in a small bowl putting in inside and along the gash in my arm before picking up the rod and pressing it down over top of it. He was making a poultice on my arm. Just like they had with Jasper.
He then pushed me backwards so I was lying on my back. Pressing his knee on my chest before taking my arm. He gave me a piece of wood and put it in my mouth. Clamping my mouth on it, I knew what he was doing… he was doing this so I wouldn't bite my tongue off. I nodded at him, as he grabbed my arm and pulled it towards him, I groaned in pain tears flooding my eyes. He than pushed it back slightly pushing it back into place.
I lay there looking at the ceiling before I felt myself feel dizzy and wheezy, the darkness taking over my head before I felt myself slowly drift off into unconsciousness.
Bellamy's Point of View
"Hey, everyone, gather around, and grab a weapon." I called out to the many people whom where awake.
The girls weren't in the camp that much was obvious. When Clarke had come back to me to tell me there was no sign or trace them. I almost lost it, did they not come back by choice or did grounders take them from me.
I watched as the many kids got up and began to walk towards me, Murphy leaning against a tree trunk watching. He told me earlier when I was looking for them that if I was going out to find them he was coming with me. A part of me knew I would need the help, but the other part of me told me he was going to kill me the first chance he'd get. Was that worth the risk?
Murphy made his way over kneeling next to me; "Bellamy, you're going to need my help out there." He said, I just nodded my head slightly as he picked up a make shift axe. Standing up with him I grabbed his arm pulling him closer.
"This is your shot to prove to me that I can trust you."
"Bellamy; we may both love the same girl. However my trust is something that you've always had, if you think I'm going to try and kill you… I wouldn't. There are other people in this camp that rank higher on that list for me than you ever could." He said his eyes narrowing in on Clarke. I nodded and watched as he walked back towards his tree followed by his friend John.
"My sister and Rayne have been out there alone for twelve hours." I told the group. "Arm up. We're not coming back here without them." I watched as a lot of the kids moved towards the pile quickly picking up weapons.
I knew a lot of them didn't really know my sisters, in fact a lot of them found her to be troublesome and annoying. It was Rayne they where all following me for, she was their Doctor, and she made it her soul mission to keep everyone happy. Something I wasn't exactly too swimmingly good at.
I moved towards Clarke who had just stopped Jasper from grabbing a weapon. "Hey, Jasper, you don't have to do this." She told him slowly. "You haven't left camp since we brought you back."
"Clarke, I need to do this. Rayne saved my life, if it wasn't for her, I wouldn't be here, and Octavia needs…us..." He said drifting off when he saw me get closer to them, crossing my arms over my chest. "We need all the people we can get." I told them both.
Jasper walked off towards the weapons, "We need a tracker." I said as I turned to face Clarke. "Finn. Get out here." I called as Clarke huffed moving away from me.
We had all started to make out way to the gate exit in the camp, everyone slowly moving in front of me. "Finn, we're leaving." I shouted back at the guy.
"All right. I'm coming." Finn called back as he got out of his tent and picked up a weapon before making his way towards the large group. I stopped one of the girls, "Roma, are you sure?" I asked her.
She ripped herself away from me; "Of course I'm sure it's Rayne. If you haven't realized she's an asset to us, she's our Doctor and our friend." She said storming off towards the rest of the group.
"Guys, guys. Come here!" One of the kids in our group called as I jogged up to catch up with them. "Did you see that?" He said pointing up to the sky as we all stopped to look, "Look up there." Another called pointing upwards. Many people started to make sounds of awe to the blue and white shards we where seeing in the sky.
"It's so beautiful." Jones said as I turned my attention to a shocked and disgusted Clarke.
"They didn't work." Raven said coming out from behind Finn and Clarke. "They didn't see the flares." I looked around the group and landed on Raven, scoffing "A meteor shower tells you that?" I snarled at her.
"It's not a meteor shower, it's a funeral." Clarke said as tears filled her eyes. "Hundreds of bodies being returned to the Earth from the Ark. This is what it looks like from the other side."
I looked down towards the ground I wasn't expecting that one. I felt someone judge my gut harshly, turning to see Roma beside me, "Good one jackass." She smirked.
"Shut up." I mumbled to her, I'd hate to admit it but the thought of hundreds of people dead being sent here freaked me out. What if they landed where we were? Did they expect us to burry them all? They could have just not killed them. That's when it hit me, this was my fault.
"They didn't get our message." Clarke said turning to a now crying Raven. She pushed past Clarke and marched over to me; "This is all because of you!" She started at me.
"I helped you find the radio." I half yelled in her face as Clarke and Finn held her back.
"Yea, after you jacked it, from my pod and trashed it." She sneered.
"Yea, he knows. Now he has to live with it." I don't know why but Clarke's word hit me like a ton of bricks. Maybe if I hadn't gone after the Pod the people wouldn't be dead, Octavia and Rayne would be sleeping in camp. It was my fault, but they didn't need to keep reminding me about it. Didn't see me continuously reminding them about shit their sour about.
"All I know is my girls are out there, and I'm going to find them." I told them as I rolled my eyes slightly before turning away and heading with the group towards the exit, we needed to find the girls, which were far more important than the things of the past. The longer we waiting around here the less chance we have of finding them.
"You coming or what?" I said turning my attention to Finn. "Yea." He said slowly.
"What are we waiting for?" I asked the group as Roma turned to me, "Murphy already left." She mumbled to me. "Move out!" I shouted as I nodded to her before rushing into the forest to find him.
"Murphy!" I shouted at the guy in front of me, "Yea?" He asked turning around.
"I never did apologize for what happened a few weeks ago." I told him.
"How hard was it for you to say that to me? And without Rayne telling you too?" I sighed, "I'm apologizing to you, does there really need to be some huge shitty discussion about it?"
He shrugged, "No, I guess not. Thank though, for saying it… now let's go get them." He said again to me.
Rayne's Point of View
I sat there my back against the harsh rock wall playing with Octavia's hair as her head lay in my lap. Humming a tune softly to myself as I continued to look around the cave for anything and anything that would tell us who this grounder was or at least if he knew.
I felt Octavia moving her head and felt her groan in pain against my leg. Looking down at her I smiled, "Hey there sunshine." I chuckled.
She rolled her eyes at me as she slowly sat up and faced me. "What happened?" She asked me as she rubbed the back of her head. "Where is he?" She asked again,
"He left a little while ago, I would have woken you up sooner so we could find a way out but I was afraid he would come back the second we did." She nodded, "What did he do to us?" She asked me, "Fixed us up." I told her softly, she looked at me in disbelief.
"Just like they did to Jasper?" I nodded, "he fixed up your knee and settled the bone, same with my arms."
She checked her leg and sure enough it was fixed up, she then grabbed my arm that had the gash and it too was fixed up. "Why would he fix us up?" She asked.
"Well it's pretty clear he has no intention of killing us so that's a positive thing. Can't say all grounder's feel that way but at least this one does." I told her softly as she stood up and looked around the cave. She walked over to a wall as I began to stand up too, I watched as she took an antler off the wall and handed me one. Taking it I sighed, "We need to get out of here." I told her, she nodded.
We began to make our way down a small hallway in the cave holding the weapons steadily, feeling the walls for any other tunnels. "I just, hope he's not waiting outside." She said with a soft laugh. "Tell me about it."
"Some of these halls are so narrow." She said as she squeezed through one of the spaces. "How the hell does he get through here?"
"I have a feeling," I began to say as I knelt down and crawled through the wider open bottom spot. "He doesn't use the passageways we're taking." I finished saying as she helped me up.
Octavia leaned against a wall and sighed softly, "we're never getting out of here." She said her voice full of defeat.
"Not true." I told her, not sounding entirely convinced myself.
There was a long pause of silence between us, "Ray…" she said softly as I turned my head to face her, "look, it's a grate." She said. "Here let me boost you up." I told her.
Nodding she put her foot on my hands as I tried to hold her weight on them as she tried pushing the grate up with all her upper body strength. "It's no use, the vines have grown over it." She said as I cleaned the dirt off my hands onto my pants.
Now I leaned against the wall facing her, "There as to be a away out of here. If there's a way in, there's a way out." She nodded at me, "This way." I told her as I extended my hand to her as the two of us made out way through the tunnels once again, feeling against the walls for anything that could prove to be a way out, "Oh…" I said my voice filling with excitement.
