Clarke immediately runs up to Murphy "Murphy, hey, look at me. I need you to tell me exactly how you escaped from the Grounders. What happened?" Murphy shakes and I don't know if it's out of fear or because he just threw blood up or both.

"I don't know. I woke up, and they forgot to lock my cage. There was no one there, so I took off." Clarke and I made eye contact both realizing what had happened "They let you go." Clarke sighed Murphy looked at me with a curious look so I answered what I knew he was asking "They let you go knowing you were sick so you would come back here."

Clarke looks at me to speak but is disrupted as Bellamy storms him his eyes going everywhere before finding me "Bellamy, stay back." Clarke shouts holding her hands up, Bellamy keeps his eyes on me and takes a step towards me.

"Are you ok? Did he hurt you?" He asks reaching me I shake my head "No, no. I'm fine." I look at Clarke "What's up with your eyes?" Bellamy looks at Clarke and notices her eyes that now have a faint red streak going down them. "Biological warfare. You were waiting for the Grounders to retaliate for the bridge? This is it. Murphy is the weapon." Clarke answers.

Hearing this Bellamy immediately pulls me and him at the furthest end of the drop ship and grabbed some cloth and covered my mouth before doing the same to his, Bellamy pushes me behind him as he walks slightly to Murphy but not too close. "Is this your revenge, helping the Grounders kill us?" Bellamy yells his veins in his neck poking out. He was pissed.

"I didn't know about this, okay, I swear." Murphy shook his head but Bellamy didn't accept that "Stop lying. When are they coming?" I grabbed Bellamy's hand and pulled him to me "Murphy, think, all right? What can you tell us that's useful? Did you hear anything?" Clarke asks gently but had a sense of urgency to her voice.

Murphy casted his eyes to the floor of the drop ship as he spoke painfully about his experience with the grounders "They are vicious, cruel." Bellamy stepped up "You want to see vicious?" I stepped up and put my hand on Bellamy's chest "You're not helping, I know you're pissed and hate him but he is scared and screaming at him won't help us in the long run." Bellamy held eye contact with me for a bit before he nodded.

"She's right, and this thing spreads with contact." Clarke sighed the drop ship flap opens up and reveals a concerned Finn "Clarke?" Clarke looks up and immediately tells Finn he shouldn't be in here and neither should Bellamy. "Rachel is in here!" Bellamy said and Clarke turned to look at me "She has been with Murphy the longest and cleaned him up a bit, she can't leave."

I sighed if I knew Murphy was sick I wouldn't have been so nice, "Like hell she can't, look she isn't bleeding or anything." Bellamy yelled at Clarke. Finn immediately went back to worrying about Clarke which I was thankful for.

Derek started to retch and gag and spit blood but suddenly stopped, Clarke ran up to him and put her fingers to his neck checking for a pulse "Is he--" "he's dead." Clarke confirms for Bellamy, I sighed sadly. Great, this was the last thing we needed.

"Here. Alcohol. Hold out your hand." Clarke told Finn pouring some on his hands "What do we do?" Finn asks her rubbing the alcohol in his hands "Quarantine. Round up everyone who had contact with Murphy. Bring them here." Finn nods at Clarke and leaves the drop ship.

"And everyone they had contact with?" Bellamy asks "Well, we have to start somewhere." Clarke shrugs her shoulders then turns to Connor "Connor, who was with you when you found him? Who carried him in? Think."

Connor takes a moment or two to think but what came out of his mouth made my blood run cold.

"The first one there was Octavia." And with that I ran out of the drop ship and straight to Octavia and I's tent Bellamy coming right with me. "Jee-- Jeez, you scared me." She says as we enter suddenly.
