Sage was helping some hurt people, when Miller came by to say goodbye to Jackson. Sage figured out he was going to shadow valley. She convinced him to take her, Bellamy, Lexa, and Clarke to talk to Octavia.
"Why? What are you thinking?" Indra asked Octavia as the group walked into where they were having a meeting.
"My question exactly." Clarke said.
"Miller, your orders were to go..." A guard, Copper started.
"I know my orders." Miller cut her off. "I think we should listen to what Sage and Lexa have to say."
"You can't take the sea route." Lexa told Octavia.
Octavia's eyes widened. "This is not your army anymore, Lexa."
"Why? You said the sea is gone." Indra stated. She was completely ignoring Octavia and getting back on topic. "Is it passable or not?"
"Yes. But you have to understand..." Lexa was cut off.
"Yes is good enough for me." Octavia walked to the door but Bellamy stopped her. "Let me out."
"O." Bellamy said before her guards pointed guns at him.
"Stand down." Octavia ordered.
"Please, O, just hear us out." Bellamy begged.
"Octavia, we're all on the same team." Clarke stated.
"No one wants to get to that valley more than me and Lexa." Sage told Octavia. "It's our home."
"But this is too risky." Lexa states.
"Risky how?" Indra questioned.
"Show me." Octavia ordered.
Lexa and Sage walked to the map on the table. "You chose the shortest path, which is understandable, but the sea is hit by constant sandstorms." Lexa explained.
"We have the tents from the second dawn." Octavia told them. "Sand won't be a problem."
"The sand is only part of the problem. Some of it crystallized in Praimfaya." Sage informed the room. "It's shards of glass like razor blades now. Your tents will be completely torn to shreds and so will you."
"Bloodreina is right." Cooper agreed with Octavia. "Besides, we can only carry rations for 7 days. The sea route will take 6. The next shortest path adds 50 miles. That's 2 days if we're lucky."
"How do we know there won't be sandstorms on the longer routes?" Indra asked.
"Enough. We're doing this. The hydrofarm is barley feeding us now, so if this is the last living valley on earth, then it should be ours." Octavia said.
"Diyoza thinks the same thing." Bellamy stated.
"And so we fight." Octavia told everyone.
Octavia's army left, except for Indra. But Sage and Lexa left too.
They both grabbed a pack and walked with the army to go get their valley back.,

The prisoners had brought Raven and Murphy down from the mother ship. They were torturing them for the missile code that Raven had locked them out of.
Murphy escaped because Raven got him out. He found the others hiding in the woods.
They were talking about how they got the bunker open and Bellamy and Clarke didn't come back.
"What about Lexa?" Madi asked.
