Free Falling {The 100 Rewrite}

6. Search Party

When the purple began to disappear everyone dispersed back to their tents. Adalynn sleepily went back to hers alone, a quiet voice whispering her desires for Bellamy to be within her mind. She pushed them back as pushed the opening of her tent back. She toed off her boots before her jeans and jackets followed, leaving her only in her tank top and panties once again. She crawled underneath the blanket on the cot and face the tarp wall closest to her. Her mind was wide awake as she attempted to fall asleep over the small chattered that came from outside. She couldn't tell how much time had passed before the fabric of the tent was moved to reveal Bellamy's worried face illuminated by a torch.

"Adalynn, have you seen Octavia?"

"Not for while, is everything okay?" The worried tone of Bellamy's voice, woke Adalynn up quickly, sitting up and looking to him.

"I've checked the entire camp, she's not anywhere."

"Alright, Let's check again." Adalynn picked herself up and pulled her clothing back on before walking out of her tent, throwing her jacket back over her shoulders, sleep no longer begging for her, "You go to the dropship, I'll check the tents again."

When they weren't able to find the missing girl, they woke a large portion of the 100 to help in the search for Octavia out in the woods. Adalynn had to do her hardest to push the gnawing thoughts of what could've happened to the young Blake girl away, but she managed.

"Everyone gather around and grab a weapon!" Bellamy declared as he dropped a bag of weapons and they all stood around, "My sister's been out there alone for twelve hours. Arm up, we're not going back without her."

People began to either grab weapons or torches and began to trek into the dark woods surrounding them. As they reached the edge of camp, a voice called out to the 100 that was awake.

"Guys, guys! Come here!" Everyone's eyes followed his to look up, hundreds of shooting stars falling from the sky. Adalynn could feel her eyebrows instinctually furrowing together as she began to piece together what those stars really were.

A sky funeral.

"They didn't work." Raven spoke up, going to stand besides Finn and Clarke, "They didn't see the flares."

"A meteor shower tells you that?" Bellamy spoke up, standing in between Adalynn and Jasper.

"It's not a meteor shower, it's a funeral." Clarke's tone gave away how her stomach turned at the reality., "Hundreds of bodies being returned to the Earth from the Ark. This is what it look likes from the other side."

A mummering came from around the group, all standing with their necks craned up to the sky, almost admiring the morbid beauty that was a sky funeral.

"They didn't get our message." Adalynn said sadly, her eyes refusing to leave the sky until she noticed Raven's movements, her stomping towards Bellamy.

"This is all because of you!"

"I helped you find the radio." Bellamy said, venom in his voice as Raven was tugged back by Finn.

"Yeah after you jacked it from my pod and trashed it!"

"Yeah he knows it, and now he has to live with it." Clarke said, helping Finn pull an angry Raven back by her shoulders. There was a quiet moment as Bellamy keeps his eyes on the sky. Adalynn tried reading his face, seeing the sickly coloring on his face as the realization set in but it was quickly turned off as he face Raven again.

"All I know is that my sister is out there and I'm going to find her. You coming or what?"

"Yeah." Finn responded quietly. Silence falling over the group again as no one moved.
