___

Just close your eyes, the sun is going down

You'll be alright, no one can hurt you now

Come morning light, you and I'll be safe and sound

Now in medical, Skye looks around the tent. Abby and Jackson are treating her various cuts and wounds, along with the arm where the bullet grazed her.

Skye takes in her mother again. "I saw your ship crash."

Abby shakes her head. "I wasn't on it. I'm right here."

A blonde guard walks in. Skye recognizes her from the Ark. Major Byrne.

"How is she?"

Abby glares at her. "She'll be fine."

The blonde woman bites her inner cheek. "I'm sorry, ma'am. We had no idea who she was." She looks at Skye now. "Where have you been?"

"Mount Weather."

Major Byrne tilts her head. "The Grounders took you to Mount Weather?"

Skye sits up. "No. The Mountain Men. We have to get them out."

Abby turns to the woman. "We aren't doing this right now."

Major Byrne exits the tent.

"Mom, did anyone else make it here?"

Abby nods with a small smile. "Yes. 6 of you did."

Skye's breath hitches in her throat. "Bellamy?"

Abby nods. "Raven and Finn, too."

She smiles, as tears form in her eyes. "I thought you were dead. We thought you died."

Abby shakes her head, pulling her daughter in for a hug. "I'm right here." She pauses. "Was Clarke in the mountain with you?"

Skye pulls away from the hug. "Yeah. We escaped together. We got separated."

Abby nods. "I'm sure she's okay."

Skye notices a pin on Abby's shirt. "I thought you got thrown off the council?"

Abby looks down at it. "Oh. It's the Chancellors pin."

Skye raises her eyebrows. "You?"

Abby nods. "Thelonious didn't make it, and Kane left two days ago to try to make peace with the Grounders to get you and the others back."

"I told you. The Grounders don't have us. How long have I been asleep?"

"About 10 hours."

This time, Abby doesn't stop her as she climbs out of bed, frantically. "Mom, we need to move against Mount Weather. How many guards are here? Where are Finn and Bellamy?"

Abby tries sitting her down. "Please. You need rest."

"I don't need to rest. I'm fine. And I don't need you to protect me. What I need is to save my friends."

Suddenly Major Byrne walks back in the tent. "Ma'am. Movement in the north woods."

"Grounders?" Abby asks.

"I don't think so." The two leave the tent and Skye stumbles after them.

As she exits, she spots Raven leaning against a pole.

She gasps. "Raven!"

Raven smiles and pulls her in for a hug. "Hi. I've been waiting out here all night. Abby said you needed sleep."
