THE WARMTH THE MOONSHINE BROUGHT
seemed to work better than being bundled in a jacket out in the cold of night. Jasmine sipped at the liquid, even as it burned down her throat. Her eyes were down towards the map of the tunnels of Mount Weather, listening to Clarke explain how she escaped from the Mountain.

"Okay, tell me again." Bellamy said, wanting a repeat of the information until it was memorised in his head. He was sitting at the table with them, in the dark of camp. Clarke and Waverly at the table, the four discussing together as they tried to strategize a way to save their friends.

"It's a labyrinth." Clarke said, pointing down to the outline of the dam she escaped through with Anya. "We got through the dam through this tunnel. It's all connected through the mine system. That's our way in."

"Sure." Bellamy nodded. "If we can get through the Reapers and the Mountain Men."

Jasmine sighed out, "sounds like a breeze."

"I swear to God," Bellamy looked towards Clarke. "If your mom doesn't sanction the mission soon, I'm going by myself."

Clarke shook her head instantly. "You won't be by yourself."

"Not by a longshot." Jasmine quickly agreed. Her friends were in that mountain. She didn't think she'd be able to rest until she helped free them. Waverly nodded with them, just as determined. Even if nobody else helped, they would find a way to save their people.

Clarke looked ahead to Alpha Station, watching as Finn came out of it. Murphy and Hazel walked with him, all three leaving together. Mostly. Hazel was shoving past Finn, not being able to get away from him fast enough.

"Guess the inquisition's over." Bellamy said, looking towards Clarke. "How's Finn doing anyway?"

"I haven't talked to him since we got back." Clarke said, looking down. She shook her head. "I don't know what to say. He just kept shooting."

"We're at war, Clarke." Bellamy reminded her gently. "We've all done things."

Finn walked up to the table. "Hey." He greeted all four of them, but his eyes remained on Clarke who could still barely look at him after what happened at the village.

Bellamy answered back, "hey." He then quickly rose up, grabbing the empty cups from the table. "Next round's on me."

Finn sat down at the table, his eyes on the map. "Mount Weather?" He asked, "what's the plan?"

"Still working on it." Clarke said stiffly.

"Here you go." Murphy joined the table, pushing a cup of moonshine towards Jasmine. She turned, looking towards her brother with a soft smile. "Salvaged Monty's still from the dropship. I guess, you know, if they could just salvage Monty, huh?"
