Fear (The 100)

His Sister's Keeper

Cal walks around camp, searching for her best friend, but she can't find her, not anywhere. She runs up to Jasper and Monty in a hurry, worry evident in her eyes and smothered on her face. She grabs hold of Jasper's shoulders and shakes him. "I can't find her."

"Find who?" Monty asks.

Cal whips her head to him frantically. "Octavia! Who else? I can't find her anywhere!" Cal lets go of Jasper's shoulders. "She's not in her tent, the butterfly field, anywhere. She's gone."

"We'll find her. She'll turn up."

Cal shakes her head. "No. I'm going to find her myself." She runs to her tent, grabbing her red leather jacket and an extra knife and bolting to the gate. "Let me out, Miller."

"Can't do that."

"Octavia's missing! Now let me out!" Miller immediately opens the gate and she runs out. "I'm still in camp if anyone wonders!" She calls over her shoulder at the boy watching after her.

"I can't-"

"Love you, Miller!" She yells at him as she gets out of hearing distance. She runs down a hill, almost falling when she sees a spot at the bottom. She stops at it, bending down. It looks like someone fell and layed down. She thinks. Octavia.

Cal follows the footprints that are not her friends. After a while she makes it to a dead end, she bends down, wondering why the prints stopped. She feels around and realizes there's a hatch. She struggles to get it open when finally she slides it by accident, almost falling down the hole. She catches herself and jumps down it, grabbing her knife after she's on the ground again. She sneaks very carefully through the sort of hallway and hides behind a wall when she sees a grounder.

The grounder looks her way, but she's hidden by the shadows completely and he goes back to whatever he was doing. She sneaks her way to the middle of the room and sees a girl laying there. She almost gasps when she sees her face. Octavia.

She looks up at the grounder, carefully lifting up her friend and slowly standing back up. Unfortunately, the grounder takes that time to turn around and sees her standing there, girl in her arms. Cal freezes in her spot as well as the grounder. Octavia stirs in her arms and opens her eyes. Cal looks down at her, putting her palm to her face. "O, you're okay."

"Cal?" Cal nods. "What happened?"

Cal sets her friend down on her feet when she realizes the grounder starts coming closer. Octavia holds onto her arm as she takes out her other knife, handing it to Octavia. "I'm gonna get you out of here. Can you walk?" Octavia nods. "Good. I want you to run back to camp. Make sure no one leaves."

"What about you?"

"I'll be fine and even if I'm not, then you keep running. You hear a scream, keep running. Don't turn back for nothing."

Octavia nods and starts walking to the entrance as the grounder starts running to her to catch her. Cal stops him by jumping in front, taking a knife to the arm. She screams out in agony as it embeds itself right next to her bone, but she doesn't collapse. No, she stabs the grounder in return right in his arm as well. He flings her to the ground and she feels something in her back break, but she just gets up, walking it off.

"Leave her alone!" Cal screams as Octavia climbs out of the hatch. "Run, O!" The grounder spins around to her and next thing she knew, the world went black.
