NOVA WALKS OUT AND PUTS ROAN AND IRIS IN THE BACK of the rover while Raven, Miller, Monty and Jasper finish loading it with supplies. "Knockout gas. Mount Weather's finest. As soon as they bring Ontari out, we put them to sleep" Miller states as he shows everyone the knockout gas and puts it back in the rover.
"Because she's chipped, you'll have to EMP her like you did me before you give her the Flame" Raven warns and Nova and Clarke nod their heads in unison.
"I thought Jaha destroyed all the wristbands" Jasper states and Nova looks to Raven who snaps her fingers like she came up with an idea.
"He did but then I came home and there were only enough usable parts to rebuild one, so use it wisely. Made a few improvements, too" Raven states and Nova grabs and it looks at it admiringly. "Wow" Nova says widening her eyes at the sight of it.
"None of this is going to matter if you can't get us access to A.L.I.E.'s code" Clarke whines and Raven sighs placing a hand on Clarke's shoulder "You worry about the Night blood. I'll worry about A.L.I.E" Raven reassures and Clarke smiles slightly and helps Nova pack the EMP in the rover.
"What are we waiting for?" Octavia asked, peering her head out of the rover and scanning the surroundings with restless eyes.
"Let's move out," Bellamy replied, hugging Raven and Jasper tightly before climbing into the vehicle. Clarke followed suit, embracing Monty, Jasper, and Raven before stepping inside. Nova was about to enter the rover when Raven caught her arm.
"Um..." Raven breathed out, hesitating before slowly wrapping her arms around Nova. Nova stiffened at first, feeling the awkwardness of the unexpected embrace, but soon softened and returned the hug. "May we meet again," Raven whispered as she pulled away, her voice tinged with emotion.
Monty and Jasper approached slowly, the weight of their impending separation heavy in the air. Nova cleared her throat, trying to ease the uncomfortable tension as she hugged each of them in turn.
"May we meet again," Jasper and Monty said in unison, their voices echoing the somber sentiment. Nova grasped their hands firmly, a silent promise passing between them.
"We will," she assured them, offering a small, reassuring smile before entering the rover, leaving the group outside with a mix of hope and uncertainty.

THE ROVER STOPS AT THE POLIS CITY LIMITS. "There it is. We stop here" Clarke says as everyone exits the rover. "Alright, this is where we split up. The entrance to the tunnel is right over there" Roan points and Iris walks over to Nova and Clarke.
