Bellamy had let the outside air inside of Mount weather, the air affecting the people who lived inside. It was just in time to save Jasper.

".. Let's go." Jasper told the others, "This is our chance, Everybody move," The others rushed past him, grabbing the guards' weapons, "Take the level."

"Monty, get the cameras." Jasper ordered, "Miller, get the guns."

Doctor Lorelei Tsing, who was still alive, crawled inside of the elevator, reaching her hand up to push a button, just as the doors were starting to close, only a few inches away from each other, an arm blocked their way, making the doors go back.

Jasper stood by the elevator doors, looking down at Dr. Tsing. Monty, Miller Harper joined his side.

"No." Dr. Tsing's eyes were filled with fear, and she shook her head, "You can't."

"I hope you know that you're very special to us." Jasper told her, Dr. Tsing started to scream in agony as her face started to bubble even more. The outside air was toxic to her, blood slid down the skin of her face, and soon, her body slumped against the elevator walls, her eyes wide but lifeless.

Bellamy shot two guards to save Fox, who was supposed to be with Jasper and the others. Bellamy guessed she was the unlucky one to get caught and almost killed.

He removed his helmet and goggles off, and Fox gasped, "Bellamy." She rushed forward, throwing her arms around Bellamy, hugging him as she was happy to see him.

As Fox was sobbing, Maya entered the room glancing at the bodies before she looked at Bellamy, who looked at her, "Come on, we have to get her someplace safe."

Fox moved back from Bellamy, following Bellamy and Maya out of the room. Maya had led them to a room where a man was lying on the couch.

"..Dad, you're home." Maya said, surprised to see her father, who sat up, turning his head to look at her.

"Yeah." Her father replied, rubbing the sleep away from his eyes, "Drill bit broke again."

Maya's father stood up as Fox and Bellamy walked in. The door softly closed behind Bellamy. "What are they doing here?"

Maya's father moved closer to her, eyeing Bellamy and Fox, "they're in trouble. We just need someplace safe."

Her father shook his head at her, "They need to go, now."

"Let me explain." Maya told him, her father looked at Bellamy then at Maya,

"Explain where you got that uniform." He said, Bellamy glanced at Maya, but her father continued to speak. "Maya, you know how dangerous this is. What are you doing?"

"What mom would've done." Maya replied, her father sighed, shaking his head, looking at Bellamy and Fox,

"I need you to leave." He told them,

"Sorry, we can't do that." Bellamy told him.

"That's okay." Maya spoke, "he's gonna help us." Bellamy looked at her in slight disbelief, raising an eyebrow at her,

"Really? Because I'm not getting that." He said, Maya turned her head to look at him, speaking,

"My parents were a part of a movement that was against using outsider blood." She looked back at her father, "My mom refused the treatment, and it killed her. She was willing to die for what she believed in."

"Maya, you were five." Her father told her, "I couldn't leave you alone."

"I'm not a little girl anymore, dad." Maya said, her voice full of emotion.
