___
Mama put my guns in the ground
I can't shoot them anymore
That cold black cloud is comin' down
Feels like I'm knockin' on Heaven's door
___
___
An alarm blasts over the speakers.
The three in the command center watch as all of the Mount Weather citizens begin to die.
Cage and Emerson are the only two who have been cured, so they do not feel the radiation seeping in.
Skye sees in the camera that Jasper is clutching onto a dying Maya.
"What have I done?" She whispers.
Monty and Bellamy look at her.
"We." Bellamy says.
Monty nods.
___
Skye and Bellamy walk into the mess hall. Monty is also with them
All of the people are hunched over in their chairs, dead. Their skin, covered in radiation burns.
Skye swallows.
They walk further, finding Jasper on the floor, now holding Maya's corpse.
He has tears in his eyes. He looks up at them. "What did you do?"
Skye doesn't say anything. She just kneels down and places her hand on Maya's shoulder. She looks at the floor.
Jasper is crying. "I was gonna kill Cage. If you'd given me one more minute, it would've been over."
Bellamy speaks up. "They never would've stopped."
"I'm so sorry Jasper." Skye says to him.
————————————————————————
They enter the dorm and Skye's eyes quickly scan for her sister.She's being helped off the table by Abby and Kane.
Skye rushes over to her, wrapping her in a tight hug.
"Skye." Clarke says softly.
Abby hugs both her daughters simultaneously. "My girls." She whispers.
Skye once again has tears in her eyes. "I tried to be the good guy."
Abby holds her face gently. "Maybe there are no good guys."
The rest of the Arkadian's are removed from their restraints.
Skye spots Raven, sitting against a wall. They drilled her quite a bit.
"Raven..." She says.
Raven looks up and tries her hardest to smile. "Hi."
She huffs a laugh. "Hi."
___
It's daybreak by the time the people of the Ark arrive back at their camp.
Clarke and Raven are being carried on manmade stretchers.
Lincoln is now with them. He escaped his restraints with the rest of his former people and on his journey back to the mountain, he found Cage.
He killed him.
Slowly but surely, every person makes their way into Camp Jaha.
Skye is the final one.
She stares at the crash site of the Ark.
Bellamy walks up to her. "I think we deserve a drink."
She doesn't look at him. "Have one for me."
He cups her face. "Hey, we can get through this."
"I don't think I can." She says tearfully.
He grabs her hand with his. "Skye, if you need forgiveness... I'll give that to you. You're forgiven. Please, come inside." His voice cracks.
The quote comes from when Bellamy and Skye were attacked by Dax at the supply depot. She sighs, shaking her head.
"Seeing their faces everyday... it's just gonna remind me of what I did to get them here."
"What WE did. You don't have to do this alone." He pleads.
She looks back at camp.
"Baby, please." He says.
He brushes a strand of hair from her face. "I need you, Skylar."
She touches the side of his cheek. "You have me."
He pulls her close and kisses her.
After a moment, they pull away.
They interlock their hands and stare at the entrance.
"Let's do this." She says.
He nods, and together they walk inside, the gate shutting behind them.
