Lincoln had saved Rachel weeks ago, after she had been injured in the woods.  Of course after they found his cave and took him prisoner, everything went bad.  His little sister Tani had attempted to rescue him and eventually both were freed, but now labeled as traitors to their clan, Lincoln planned on leaving to find another, TondC was longer home to him and he was packing in his cave what he could carry.

Tani had hated how the sky people had treated her brother, torturing him to speak.  If not for Rachel he'd probably be dead.  She had compromised his release, and chosen to stay in their camp and help them survive their new world.  Over the last few weeks, Tani taught them how to make bows and arrows, how to hunt, she helped the forgers with identifying bad or poisonous nuts and berries and re fortified the wall.  But now since John Murphy returned, a sickness had fallen over several of the sky people.

Rachel appreciates Lincoln for saving her life she fought with both of her brothers and her sister to save Lincolns life. She got to know Tani and Lincoln while they were being tortured. She cried every night they were tortured. She was getting attached after she promised herself a very long time ago she never would. She went up to Lincoln when John Murphy came back, and asked for medicine to save her brother Bellamy. "Lincoln,  theres a sickness over the camp. I cant let my brother die please." walks up to Lincoln and hugs him.

Lincoln wasn't expecting anyone to ever walk into his cave until he heard Rachel's voice.  The tall man turned as she hugged him.  "I'm sorry Rachel, there is no cure" he told her.  "If your brother survives it, he will live, the disease will pass, but not all will make it" he told her. 

Tani had been told by Jasper that Bellamy had fallen to the disease, unfortunately so had she while working in the camp and Clarke escorted her inside the drop ship.  She barely made it to the bed roll from coughing before she collapsed to the floor.  Clarke gave her a bucket as she puked up blood.

Rachel starts to tear up at the thought that her brother may die, after Wells died not to long ago as well and Octavia has been ignoring her all her life after thinking all of this a tear escapes from her eye, she looks away as a hand wipes at her face. She stays looking as the hand moves across her face. "I cant let him die Lincoln, please you have to do something to help. If you could distract me or anything please" Rachel slowly looks up at Lincoln.

Lincoln looked down at the girl and sighed "They're preparing for war Rachel, my people will attack at dawn, this was biological warfare" he told her.  "You need to go, my sister is there, she can help them get through the disease if she has not fallen to it herself" he said as he let go of her and went back to packing his bag.

Tani lied back on the bed roll, wiping the blood from her mouth with her sleeve as Clarke came over with a small cup of water.  She vaguely sat up and drank from it but she collapsed again.  "And here I thought being down here, a grounder girl, they'd be immune to this shit" Murphy remarked.  "Shut it John" Clarke groaned with a roll of her eyes.

Rachel grabs her bags and heads out. As she gets the the trees she feels someone watching her, she turns around and crouches to not get hit by any bows. She takes a long look around just to see no one. She stays low but starts heading back to camp. As she arrives she noticed that no one was working. "Everyone get back to work or we will all die. If your sick go to the drop ship. NOW!" She walks in to drop ship to see four people dead and everyone with blood.
