They found Roma not too far from where Diggs' life had been taken. A spear had struck her by the chest, forcing her up against the bark of a tree.
"They're playing with us," Finn breathed, "They can kill us whenever they want."
"Then they should get it over with!" Jasper snapped, "Come on!"
"Jasper!" River hissed.
"We know you're out there! You want to kill us..."
"Bellamy!" Monroe boomed when her eye caught a Grounder in the distance, sprinting toward them, a spear in hand.
River's heart pounded rapidly in her chest as she flicked her eyes back and forth between the Grounders that seemed to come from every possible angle of the forest.
They were surrounded.
Bellamy pushed River behind him, protectively, while the rest of the group readied themselves into a fighting stance. Then out of nowhere, a horn blew, which made every Grounder turn on their feet and disappear into the unknown once more.
"They're leaving," Said Bellamy.
"That horn," Jasper trembled, "What does it mean?"
"Acid fog," Finn declared before ripping out a tarp from his backpack.
"We have to run," Monroe urged.
Finn shook his head at her. "There's no time."

A warmth lingered beneath the tarp where the group were huddled together on the mossy ground. River was pressed up against Bellamy's body, close enough for her to feel his hot breath on the back of her neck. The atmosphere was odd, cause no one really said anything for a while.
Jasper finally decided to break the silence. "How long are we supposed to wait?"
"Will this even work?" Monroe whispered.
"We'll in out," Finn replied.
"No, we won't." Before River had to the chance to rip him back under the tarp, Bellamy had poked his head out into the open. "There's no fog."
