Raven's screams were all the camp could hear

Raven's screams were all the camp could hear. Athena held Raven's hand as Clarke cauterized her gunshot wound. The brunette girl was griping so hard to the girls hand that Athena wouldn't be surprised if her bones started to crack under the pressure.

"That should stop the external bleeding." Clarke stated, pulling the blazing knife away from the girls skin. "I don't understand. How did Murphy get a gun?" Finn said from the opposite side of Raven. "Long story that involves kidnapping and attempted murder." Athena said as she breathed out a shallow breath, recalling the events that happened mere moments before.

"We got lucky. If Murphy hit the fuel tank instead of me, we'd all be dead."

"Wait- there's rocket fuel down there? Enough to build a bomb?" The blonde girl asked in confusion. "Enough to build a hundred bombs, if we had any gunpowder left."

"Let's get back to the reapers." Bellamy said changing the subject, "Maybe they'll help us. The enemy of my enemy is my friend, right?"

"That doesn't apply here, Bell. The reapers are vicious and vile, they are barely even human." Athena said looking up at the boy, recalling what Lincoln and Artemis had informed her about the reapers.

"Can she walk or not?" Finn asked looking at the girl on the table.

"No." Clarke and Athena both said in unison. "We'll have to carry her." The Griffin girl continued.

"The hell you will. I'm good to go." Raven said as she tried to get up from the metal table only for Athena to push her down my the shoulder. "Rae, you're most likely bleeding internally. That bullet is still inside your body and the more you move, the more you're at risk for it to hit something major if it hasn't already. You're not walking for your own safety. Don't fight me on this, Raven." She said sternly to the girl in pain who simply nodded painfully.

"I'll get the stretcher." Finn said as he started to walk out of the dropship. "Can't walk away fast enough? Real brave." Bellamy sasses at the Colins boy.

"Dying in a fight you can't win isn't brave, Bellamy, it's stupid."

"Yeah, and running away is cowardly. How do you know we can't win? You don't. So, I'd shut the fuck up if I were you before I-"

Bellamy pulled the girl back as she started to get up in Finn's personal space. Her anger and frustration was getting the better of her and it was evident to everyone in the dropship. Finn simply sighed, he didn't blame the girl for her aggression towards him because he knew she was simply upset.

"It's time to go." Clarke cut in. Athena rolled her eyes and purposely bumped her shoulder with the blonde as she tried to exit the area but Bellamy's voice made her stop in her steps.

"If they follow. It's a 120 mile trek to the ocean."

"We don't have time for this." Finn stated, "If they want to stay, they can stay." He said referring to the two stubborn leaders.
