___
It just isn't in the cards
I could hold onto us forever
But it won't pull us together if i'm doing it alone
___
It doesn't take long to get the remaining kids off of the floor they were on. They now walk down a hallway past an elevator.
"What is this?" Miller asks.
"Relax, Maya cut the cameras."
"Yeah, well we're still sitting ducks in a group like this."
Skye nods. "You're right. So, we're gonna split up."
Monty grabs her arm. "No. We do this together. We survive together."
"Skye is right." Jasper says.
"They don't trust Maya anymore." Harper says.
"So, who the hell is gonna help us now?" Miller asks.
Bellamy leads them further down the hall. "They are."
Across from them stands nearly a dozen people. Maya and her father, included.
"We're going to hide you. Not everyone here agrees with Cage. Not by a long shot." Maya says.
Vincent, Maya's dad, waves his hands. "Come with me. We'll divide you along the way."
Jasper smiles at Bellamy and Skye.
"You'll be okay." Bellamy tells him, patting him on the back.
The delinquents quickly leave with the volunteers and Jasper grabs onto Skye's wrist, who has already started to go back down the hall they came, with Bellamy.
"Hey, we're coming with you." Jasper says, standing next to Monty.
"No, you're not." Bellamy says. "They still don't know we're here and we need to keep it that way."
"So, what do we do?" Monty asks.
"Stay alive. Be ready to fight." Skye replies.
They nod.
"War is coming."
___
"Is this the right way?" Skye whispers as they approach a door on level four.
Bellamy looks at her with gentle eyes and a light smirk. "Relax, princess."
She rolls her eyes at him. "Bell, I'm serious. This is the way Raven said, right?"
He nods. "Should be."
He lifts the keycard from Lovejoy and scans it against the reader next to the door.
BRZZTT.
The reader glows red and the door doesn't unlock.
Skye looks at it, eyes slightly wide.
Bellamy scans the card again.
BRZZTT.
"Shit." He mumbles.
"Bellamy, Skye, come in." The voice in their earpiece says.
"Little busy here, Raven." Bellamy says, interlocking his fingers with Skye and pulling her away to find a different door.
"You missed check-in. Did you find the source of the acid fog yet?"
"We're making our way there now." He speaks. "It's taking longer than I thought."
