The people in the camp were gathered around the monitor of the radio as Jaha spoke.

"My friends, this is a historic unity day. Every year we mark the moment of our ancestors when the 12 stations joined to form the Ark. But this is the last time we do so while aboard."

He smiled.

"Next year. On the ground."

Eveyone on the Ark cheered and clapped at Jaha.

"Right. After we did all the work."

Miller scoffs annoyed.

"Someone shut him up."

"You shut up, Miller. No one is forcing you to watch."

Raven said walking towards the tree Cora was sitting against and sitting down next to her.

"Unity day sucks."

Cora says as Raven nods.

"Just like my love life."

Cora looks over at her.

"He doesn't deserve you."

Raven looks at Cora.

"He does love me...Not as much as Bellamy loves you, but still."

Cora huffs.

"Really? It can't pass less than 3 seconds without you saying something about him and me?"

Raven shrugs.

"You forgave him and he banished your twin brother to death. That means something."

Cora shakes her head.

"He just killed someone else...I just gave him the forgiveness he needed to stop him from leaving."

Raven shooks her head unconvincingly.

"Sure, whatever you say, miss Blake."

Cora sighs as she looks at the people ahead of them.

"You know..people help the people. It's a human thing to forgive.."

Raven lets out a sighs before her gaze fell on Clarke and Finn talking.

"How can you forgive someone that is on the verge of doing the same mistake again?"

Cora leans her head against the tree and looks at Raven.

"I have no clue."

Raven looks at her.

"Definitely my love life sucks."

Raven mutters as Jasper comes out of the tent with a barrel full of alcohol, his goggles on as he shouts.

"Oh yeah! Monty strikes again! Hey, hey!"

he says taking his goggles off and holds the barrel up.

"Call this patch Unity juice. Who's thirsty?"

He asks as everyone gathered around and he started to pour into their bottles. Everyone was distracted which made it the perfect moment for Octavia to sneak out of the camp.

"Happy unity day."

Jasper said as everyone cheered around while Finn saw Octavia and furrowed his brows slightly.

Later in the night everyone was having fun and drinking around. Bellamy was eating an apple looking at the people in the camp, leaning against a pole.

"Hey."

Cora says as she approached him.

"The comms are still dead. They cut out doing the pageant."
