Third person pov
Lyrenna and the others were "kindly" escorted to the dropship airlock. Once pushed inside they made their way to the seats that were on the third floor. Beckett was the first to go up the ladder, and Lyrenna being the last.
"Psst!" Lyrenna spins around just as she grabs onto the ladder.
"Psst! Hey! Blonde girl, over here!" The voice says. Lyrenna finally focuses her line of sight on a small alcove covered mostly by a tarp. A girl around her own age emerges.
"Come over here before they come in!" She says while looking towards the airlock.
"Who are you?" Lyrenna asks, letting go of the ladder and walking over.
"That's not important, right now we ne-" She was cut off by someone coming down the ladder.
"Hey Lyrenna? Come on everyone is waiting." Fritz freezes, then walks up behind Lyrenna.
"And who are you?" He asks, while discreetly wrapping an arm around Lyrenna's waist. Lyrenna seems not to noticed, seemingly unaware of his presence at all. She's so focused on the girl that she doesn't notice the guards that come in. The strange girl whips her and Fritz behind her and inside the alcove that was much larger than it looked.
"Listen, you need to be quiet. If they catch me, I'm in for a fate worse than death." The guards seem to see Fritz's shoe lace from behind the crate and snatch his arm.
"You thought you could hide from us and stowaway back to Asline didn't you?" He says with obvious arrogance. Fritz stares daggers at him and tries to wiggle from his grasp. The guard then looks down and sees Lyrenna and the other girl.
"So that's where you went." The guard says and throws Fritz to the ground so he can grab the girl.
"Let go of me! Listen! They are missing a person, just let me go with them!" She pleads.
"Hmph. I guess, but only because they are one down and we don't have time to turn around and get another." He then bends down and grabs Lyrenna's arm and throws them both towards the ladder.
"Get up there and stay there, take your sneaky friend with you." He then clamps a hand on Fritz's shoulder and shoves him to the girls.
"Come on. The others were worried enough as it was when I came down." The blonde boy says with a death glare at the guard. One in which it was returned.

Lyrenna seemed unphased by the severe turbulance that shook the dropship. Her thoughts were still focused on Avery and the strange girl that somehow convinced the guards to let her go with them. That same girl was sitting beside her with her head tilted up. She seemed to be crying, but not because she was afraid of what was below, but because she was thankful that a group of six finally came along to provide her escape.
The dropship lands and the guards usher everyone off. They all have their bags with them, but Lyrenna has two. She hands the mystery girl the one with extra clothes, and some blankets, Avery's old bag.
"Where'd you get the extra bag?" She asked looking at the broken girl standing next to her
"Over there. Thats where we will set up camp for the night. Kelsey, Jess, do you have the tents? And the blankets?" Kelsey and Jess nodded and the blue eyed girl nodded too. Kelsey walks over to her and hands her a scrap of fabric.
"To tie up your hair" the girl nods and slings her bag over her shoulder, and begins to pull her long brown hair out of her face.
