Monty was missing.

Freya sat at the mess hall with Maya and Jasper, who were chatting with one another. Freya sat by herself on the opposite side of the two, twisting a strand of her hair in between her fingers.

Suddenly, Maya stood and left, leaving the two teens to each other. Jasper was mumbling to himself to try and keep calm, while Freya was watching two kids play across the room.

" Come on, Freya." Jasper stood up suddenly, catching the attention of Freya quickly.

" Where are we going? " She asked as she stood and followed Jasper out of the mess hall. Jasper didn't provide any information as he raced down the hall that Freya was familiar with. She didn't need Jasper to confirm her suspicion on where they were heading.

" President Wallace... Can we talk? " Jasper asked once the two entered the office. Dante stood from his desk and offered a smile to Jasper and Freya

" What's on your mind? " Dante asked politely. Freya glanced between Jasper and Dante

"My friends." Jasper gritted out as he stared at Dante, tears rimming his eyes.

"What about them?" Dante asked politely

"Two of them are missing. One of them is Monty. Tell me where they are." Jasper spoke through his tears as he thought of Monty

"Jasper, I don't know what you're -" Dante started, but Jasper cut him off,

"Stop lying." Jasper snapped angrily. Freya watching as a different side of Jasper showed itself to her for the first time

"Excuse me?" Dante asked

"You lied about there not being any survivors from the Ark. You lied about Maya's accident. I don't even know how many lies you told about Clarke." Freya looked at Dante as Jasper spoke, Dante looking back at her

"Please sit down, and we'll -" Again, Dante was cut off by jasper,

"No! You're gonna tell us the truth, " Jasper grabbed a sword of Dantes' desk and put it to his throat, making Freya step back in slight fear

"Jasper, please put down the sword. " Dante tried to speak calmly to the crazed bog

"Why should I, so I can disappear next? Where are they?" Jasper pushed the sword closer to Dantes throat, and Freya held her breath

"You're right. I did lie to you about Clarke, about the survivors from the Ark, and about what happened to Maya. I'm trying to protect you, Jasper, all of you." Dante glanced ay Freya and then down to her abdomen

"Do I look desperate to you? Because I'm feeling pretty desperate." Jasper asked, a small line of blood showing under the sword.

"I told you, I don't know what happened to your friends!" Dante spoke camly again.
