CHAPTER FIVE
_______________________

"USE YOUR BLOOD AS WARPAINT AND WEAR IT PROUDLY,"

EVANGELINE kept her hand sitting on her sword as she wandered around the forest. It was dark but in reality it was quite sunny when you were out of the woods.

The girl didn't know how long she has been walking around for but it felt like forever but her feet didn't ache. not yet.

Immediately the auburn haired girl crouched down behind a tree once she heard light footsteps. it sounded like someone was running.

"Bellamy," she heard a voice call out.

"what are you doing?" Evangeline clenched her jaw shut as she tried to watch the scene, "go back to camp. it isn't safe," the boy who Evangeline now knew was Bellamy said.

"you lied to everyone. you lied to me. you just want whatever is in that pod--" Evangeline flinched when Bellamy suddenly pushed the girl away from him, "look just go home!" he shouted irritated.

The brunette refused to listen to Bellamy and stepped towards him again, "you always want to play the big brother, huh? well, guess what. jokes on me, your just a selfish dick,"

"i did this for you. to protect you. look, if the Ark finds out we're alive they'll come down. and when they do.." Bellamy hesitated before saying, "i'm dead,"

Evangeline slowly reached into her pocket and grabbed her pocket knife, "what did you do?" the girl asked quietly.

"i shot him. i shot Jaha," Bellamy replied. Evangeline brought her clothed arm to her mouth and bit down on it as she brought the tip of the blade to her leg.

As it dug into her skin Evangeline whimpered quietly as she instantly stopped the knife from digging into her leg any further.

Black blood slowly started to come oozing out from her small wound and even though it wasn't much Evangeline was still satisfied.

"use your blood as warpaint," is what her mother once told her, "and wear it proudly,"

"what?" the girl asked surprised as Evangeline brought her bloody hands to her face.

"i found out they were sending you to Earth. i couldn't let you go alone. someone came to me with a deal. do this, kill him, and they'd get me on the dropship. and i did it," Bellamy said.

Once her face was covered in her own blood Evangeline grabbed the belt from around her waist and brought it down to her leg.

She knew that in order to stop the wound from bleeding she'll have to wrap the belt tightly above her it.

"you killed the chancellor?"

"he floated our mother. he locked you up. he deserved it," Bellamy stated in a pleading voice, "i didn't ask you to do that," the girl said stopping him from speaking.

As it grew silent Evangeline tightened the belt around her leg and winched quietly as her leg started to slightly burn.

"your right. i made that choice. it's on me. whatever they sent down, i'll take care of it," once Evangeline was done handling her problem she glanced at the two.

"i didn't ask for any of this," the girl said. the hurt on her face ate at Bellamy as he watched her turn around and jog off back towards the camp without a single glance.

Bellamy stood there for a little while before running into the other direction in defeat.

Evangeline watched them both run off. she wasn't sure who to follow. she was about to follow after Bellamy before realising the girl might get lost and Lincoln or the others might kill her.

"this sucks," Evangeline muttered as she left from behind the tree and ran after the brunette.

She was glad she wasn't limping, the wound was small and it was also not deep so that could explain why she could run so well.

Accidently, Evangeline stepped on a branch that caused it to break which seemed to have caught the brunettes attention so Evangeline quickly got onto her stomach and laid in the long grass.

As a bird suddenly squealed that is when Evangeline heard the girl take off but that didn't concern the auburn haired girl. she heard another branch break from above her, like there was someone else in the woods.

Quickly, Evangeline got onto her feet and ran after the brunette but not before she looked around at her surroundings carefully.

"what the-" Evangeline grumbled as she felt lost in the grass and trees, "aah" she heard a quiet voice cry.

Evangeline frowned as she followed after the voice in time to watch the girl fall down the hill and hit her head against a small rock.

She was prepared to run down the hill until she heard a twig snap from behind her.

Lincoln instantly came to a halt once Evangeline turned around and held her sword up to his neck.

"Lincoln?" she asked once she recognised who it was.
