"seek and destroy, all missiles deployed."

Alice sits inside the tent with Monty and Jasper. They attempt to play rock, paper, scissors to entertain themselves. It doesn't really work that well with three people. "Rock, paper, scissors, shoot!" They all say in unison.

Monty chooses paper, Alice chooses scissors while Jasper tries to include a bomb in the game by sticking his thumb out.

"That doesn't count Jas," Alice tells him, rolling her eyes. The three try again, this time Alice sticks out her middle finger towards Jasper. Jasper jokingly gasps at her, holding his hand to his chest.

Jasper is about to comment before Bellamy opens their tent. The three look at him confused. "Bellamy? What's wrong?" Alice asks noticing Bellamys distraught face.

Bellamy looks at Alice, responding. "Octavia, I can't find her." Alice and the two boys immediately get up, wanting to help Bellamy search for the girl.

Bellamy gets the others, dropping a bag of weapons on the floor telling everyone to choose a weapon. Alice walks up to Bellamy, placing a hand on his shoulder.

"We're going to find her Bellamy," Alice reassures Bellamy, squeezing his shoulder.  He looks down at her giving her an appreciating smile.

Everyone stops in their tracks, staring up in the sky. Glimmers of light falling from it. It is entrancing. "It didn't work, they didn't see the flares." Raven says as she walks up to the group.

"A meteor shower tells you that?" Bellamy questions, looking over to Raven.

"It's not a meteor shower. It's a funeral. Hundreds of bodies being returned to Earth from The Ark." Clarke responds, sadly looking at Bellamy. "This is what it looks like from the other side."

Alice looks at Jasper, who is beside her. She wraps her fingers in between his as she notices the tears threatening to spill from his eyes. She squeezes his hand which he returns.

Raven rushes up to Bellamy, ready to fight him. "This is all because of you!" She tells at him.

Bellamy lifts his hand up, blocking Ravens way. "I helped you find the radio!" 

Raven gets pulled back by Finn and Clarke, "Yeah! After you jacked it from my pod and trashed it!"

Clarke once again chimes in, always having to have a say. "Yeah, he knows. Now he has to live with it." Bellamy looks up at the sky before sorrowfully looking back at Alice, who is still gripping Jaspers hand.

Bellamy looks back at Clarke, Raven and Finn. "All I know is, my sister is out there and I'm gonna find her. You coming or what? Then what are we waiting for? Move out."

"Look! Over here!" John yells flashing their light towards the hill. Bellamy and Alice run up to the guy, their eyes following the direction of the light.

"What is it?" Bellamy asks.

"Right there. Do you see it? Is that Octavias?" John tells Bellamy, trying to move the light closer without falling down the hill.

Bellamy asks for a rope and flashlight before galloping down the hill. He picks up a belt shouting that it's hers. Jasper immediately follows him, going down the hill.

Alice then goes after Jasper, falling onto him at the last drop. "Could've warned me about that," She tells him. He shrugs his shoulders before walking up to Bellamy.

Bellamy crouches down at a blood-stained rock. The blood was fresh. Alice looks at Bellamy, worried for Octavias well-being. He gets up, continuing to walk down the path. The others following in suit.
