Jasper's message continued to play on loop as Raven turned on the tone generator.

"Yeah, I can totally replicate this frequency," she nodded, turning it back off.

"Good. If we can neutralize the Reapers, the tunnels are an option. Get on it."

"You don't need to give me orders, Clarke. I got this."

"Raven, any word from Bellamy?" Octavia asked as she walked in.

"Nothing yet."

"Lincoln's still missing too. He should be back by now."

"They'll be okay," Clarke tried to assure her.

"They better be," Raven mumbled. "Your whole plan rests on Bellamy getting in."

"He will."

"Excuse me," Alia said, breaking the silence and walking outside. She closed her eyes and leant her head against the cool wall.

"Councilor Kane, Clarke Griffin, and Alia Jasso, please report to the south airlock immediately."

"Did he say something?" Kane asked as they reached Abby at the airlock.

"No. But his blood did. Jackson found genetic marker anomalies that can only come from someone who was born on the Ark."

"It's started," Clarke realized.

"It didn't come from the blood transfusion?"

"No," she told him. "I took the sample before that."

"They're bleeding our friends."

"We don't know that," Kane told her.

"Yes we do. We were genetically engineered. They weren't."

"Those traces wouldn't have been found unless they were bleeding us and putting it into them," Alia spoke up. Clarke walked forwards, but Kane stopped her.

"What are you doing?"

"Killing him." He held her back. "Get out of my way, Kane."

"Calm down."

"Clarke," Abby spoke up, "you are not in charge here. We do things my way." Clarke turned and walked away without another word. They both looked at Alia.

"I'll go get her." She jogged through the halls, turning into Raven's workshop as she heard Clarke's voice.

"No," Raven stood. "You don't get to give up, Clarke. You killed Finn and I didn't get to give up. I'm building a damn tone generator. You do your job."

"What is my job?"

"I don't know! To come up with something!"

"I have tried!"

"Raven! Clarke!" Alia stepped between them. The room was silent before Jasper's message stopped.

"Camp Jaha, this is Mount Weather. Does anyone read me?"

"Holy crap," Raven let out.

"Camp Jaha, this is Mount Weather. Does anyone read me?"

"Bellamy?" Alia asked as Raven handed her the radio.

"Alia?"

"Are you okay?" she asked, tears coming to her eyes.

"I'm fine." She let out a breath of relief. "But that's it for the good news. Is Clarke there?"

"I'm here," Clarke spoke up.

"We have to talk fast. Something has changed. Jasper, Monty, everyone is locked in the door."
