She could feel her eyes closing heavily as her legs kept pulling her to the ground. Joseph was next to her, holding her hand. At that moment, Eliza's body gave way and she collapsed. Luckily, Joseph catches her before she hit the ground.

"You're tired." Joseph rested her by a tree. "You should rest."

"It's getting dark anyway. You should rest too." Eliza pulled him closer until he fell next to her. They were both lying down on the tree looking up at the stars. The sky was beautiful, more beautiful than anything they had ever seen before. "We have to find the grounder's camp. Otherwise we will all be dead."

"Remember their saying,"blood must have blood"? Lexa's killer is dead. Surely they won't fight." Joseph was hoping for an answer, after all, Hannah was dead. But instead of answering, Eliza looked into his eyes, then cuddled him. Joseph kissed her on the forehead then went to sleep. It was peaceful at night, no birds chirping or people shouting.
