"Is that an Azgeda rider?" Lincoln pointed out as he spotted someone riding over from his lookout post. The other trikru warrior heard his shout from his post and looked out to where Lincoln was pointing. He nodded then climbed down his ladder to get Lexa.

"Commander. There's a rider. From Azgeda." The warrior spoke to her while she was walking down one of the hallways of the tower to go find Clarke. She had a confused face and followed the trikru member back outside.

As the rider got closer, Lexa awaited their arrival at the entrance of Polis. A crowd was starting to gather.

Eventually, the rider had reached Polis and got off their horse. They had a hood on and was looking down. No one knew who it was.

"Reveal yourself before the commander!" Titus raised his voice pushing through the crowd to reach Lexa.

"Lex- Commander, we must speak privately." The hooded figure stated.

No one, under no circumstances was aloud to call Lexa by her name. Everyone must  address her as Commander. Everyone besides Clarke and her close friends of course. So Lexa knew that this rider was either asking for a death sentence or was a close friend of hers.

Titus made his way to Lexa and was about to speak again before Lexa put her hand up to silence him. He immediately closed his mouth and stayed silent.

She knew what he was going to say. He would've told them once again to reveal themselves and to publicly state what they came to say.

Lexa nodded to them and spoke the word "Follow." To the hooded figure so they could speak privately.

They reached the throne room in the tower where a crowd followed them up to the entrance of the tower where no one was allowed in without Lexa's approval. Raven, Luna, Clarke and Octavia were together at the moment and saw a crowd at the entrance of the tower so they all went over and found Lincoln and asked him what happened. He explained everything so the four went into the tower, earning a big groan from the crowd because they were aloud to be in the tower.

They made their way to the thrown room where Lexa was sitting and the rider stood before her. "Lexa what is going on?" Clarke and the other three barged in right before Lexa could speak with the Azgeda rider. "Clarke, please leave. This might be important. I need to know why this person wanted to speak privately. I need to know why they called me by my name when everyone knows not to. And most importantly I need to know who they are." Lexa spoke raising her voice during certain moments of each sentence all while staring at the person. This statement earned Lexa a laugh from the person. "I never really did find you intimidating." Lexa was about to speak after hearing the rude comment but Clarke, not caring about it much, Interrupted before Lexa said anything. "I am not leaving. And they aren't either." Clarke spoke gesturing towards Raven, Luna, and Octavia. "Fine." Lexa spoke with a calm quite voice.

She then turned back towards the person. "Who are you and what do you want?"

"Wouldn't you like to know."

The person lifted their head up and pulled off their hood.

"Oh my Becca. What are you doing here? You're not even a rider! How did you get king Roan's permission to even come? Azgeda never comes here unless Roan sends messengers for things."

They all stared in shock to see the spy Echo.

"Guess this explains why she called you Lexa then. You two are- well, were pretty close. All of us actually. Before Roan became king and made strict rules about anyone leaving Azgeda unless he orders them to. What an asshole, huh? Damn Roan." Raven was sitting back in a chair laughing.

"She's a little drunk at the moment." Luna spoke as she made a nervous laugh and kneeled down to Raven and quietly spoke to her making sure she was ok since Luna has never really experiencsd a drunk person since they had limited supplies on the rig and rarely had supply runs so they wouldn't risk being caught by people that weren't flokru. They only gathered what they needed and had nothing but water to drink on the rig. She's never been drunk and has never even had alcohol.

Echo laughed. "How did she get drunk."

"Some guy was selling a ton of different alcohol drinks so Raven bought a few too many and well...here we are. I didn't even know grounders knew how to make alcohol." Octavia spoke.

"We may not have advanced technology from the sky like you guys but that doesn't mean we're stupid." Echo laughed.

"Can we get back to the topic at hand? Why are you here and how did you sneak away?" Lexa got back to the serious issue at hand.

"Well first of all, Im a spy. Obviously I can sneak in and out of places. And second of all..." Echo froze.

"I fear trikru might be in danger because of Roan."

"What?!" Everyone besides Raven spoke in unison

Raven laughed. "Dun dun dunnnn." She continued laughing as she took the sunglasses she bought from Arkadia out of her pocket and put them on. She continued taking them off and putting them on while repeating the same words. "Light. Dark. Light. Dark. Light. Dark."

Clarke leaned over Raven's chair towards Luna and Luna did the same when she saw Clarke was trying to tell her something. "Never let her drink again." Clarke whispered to Luna while they were both hovering right above Raven but she was too busy messing with the sunglasses to even notice.

"Way ahead of you." Luna spoke.

Octavia cleared her throat to get their attention. "Anyways..." "What is Roan doing?"

Echo took a deep breath and she started to explain what Roan was planning to do to Trikru.
