arabella heard an explosion and rushed outside, bellamy and clarke behind her. it was from the direction of the bridge, and a large cloud of smoke filled the sky. 

"they did it." bellamy spoke from behind arabella.

"i am become death, destroyer of worlds." clarke quoted.

arabella and bellamy looked at the girl. 

"it's oppenheimer, the man who built the first..."

"i know who oppenheimer is." bellamy smiled, giving arabella a quick glance.

...

monty and jasper arrived back at the camp, people cheered for the two of them. but arabella could see finn and raven, the girl had caught the illness and looked like she was really struggling.

raven was brought into the dropship and was being watched over by clarke and finn.

arabella wandered around the camp, just checking in on how people who caught the illness were doing.

"bella." she heard bellamy's voice behind her, he soon caught up to her and placed his hand on her shoulder.

"oh, hi." arabella smiled.

"you feeling better?" he asked her.

arabella nodded. "i'm getting there."

"we need to talk about murphy, bella." 

"i know." she sighed. "but he was right about the bridge."

"we'll see. octavia says the mountain men are pissed, whatever that means."

"i'd say it means we need as many soldiers as we can get." clarke said and she walked up to the two.

"so, what, we have pardon power now?" bellamy asked clarke.

"it's hard running things." clarke told him, shrugging as she walked away.

...

it had been two days since the bomb explosion on the bridge. they hadn't seen any grounders since. 

arabella kept herself tucked away inside her tent, only leaving it to go to the toilet and drink. two much was happening at once and she just felt overwhelmed.

bellamy entered her tent. "hey, sweetheart." he softly said to her.

arabella stared ahead, the covers up to her chin.

"you wanna come for a walk? we still haven't heard anything from the grounders." he sat next to her, softly stroking her hair.

the girl's eyes were blank, she wanted to look at him but she just couldn't.

bellamy nodded to himself. "i'll come to check on you soon... i-" he stopped himself quickly and softly kissed her head before leaving her tent.

not long after bellamy left she heard shouting outside.

"fire!" someone yelled.
