Letting out a small yawn, Murphy stretched her arms over her head, glancing at Jaha, who still had his eyes closed, but she was sure he wasn't sleeping at all. Maybe he was in his city of light.

".. Earth to Jaha." She spoke, standing in front of him. "Hello, Jaha, we're here." Jaha opened his eyes, and Murphy took a step back from him, eyeing him weirdly. He was acting differently, possibly even more crazier than the last time she saw him.

"Already?" He glanced around, nothing but trees. Murphy nodded her head, mumbling a small yeah under her breath. She walked away from him, heading towards Finn and Emori, snatching the radio from Finn, who awkwardly laughed as Emori flirted back with him.

Murphy laughed at him. Finn rolled his eyes at her, shoving her, only causing her to laugh a little more. Emori chuckled, sharing a grin with Murphy.

Murphy chuckled, bringing the radio up as she moved away from Emori and Finn. "..Raven, if you can hear me, then it means Bellamy got you out safe. Don't worry about Finn. He's still alive, a total whackjob but he's alive."

"Um.. Bellamy, if you are listening, thank you. Thank you for saving them -" The radio was snatched by Finn, who smirked at her.

"What's she's trying to say is that she loves you very, very-ow!" Finn cut himself off with a groan of pain as Murphy punched him in the stomach and snatched the radio from him again with a glare.

"Don't listen to him, Bellamy. That nutjob is losing more of his brain the more he speaks." Finn flicked her off, rubbing his stomach with a wince.

Emori chuckled, "Okay, you two. Let's start moving." She walked beside Murphy with a smile, "Tell me about this Bellamy, is he your boyfriend?"

Finn laughed, "she wishes." That earned him smack to the back of his head, and a hissed shut up from Murphy as her cheeks were tinted red, Finn would call that a small victory.

"Bellamy isn't my boyfriend. He's a..friend, actually. He's a total jerk.."

As soon as the sun came up, Bellamy and Lincoln kept moving. Bellamy kept the radio in his hand, waiting for the voices to start again, but nothing. It didn't matter. He wasn't turning back this time, not again.

As the two of them continued to walk in silence, the only sound was their footsteps when the radio crackled to life. "..Raven, if you can hear me, then it means Bellamy got you out safe."

Bellamy stopped in his tracks, his eyes widening a little. The voice was clear, and the familiar voice he's been longing to hear came through the radio. "..Um.. Bellamy, if you are listening, thank you. Thank you for saving them -"

His heart stilled as Murphy's voice cut off. He was about to speak when another voice came through the radio. "What's she's trying to say is that she loves you very, very-ow!" It was Finn.

"Don't listen to him, Bellamy. That nutjob is losing more of his brain the more he speaks." Bellamy let out a laugh of relief, Murphy was alive, and so was Finn.

"Murphy! Murphy, I'm here, where - where are you?" Bellamy questioned, waiting for a response, but nothing.

He didn't let that disappoint him. Murphy was close, her voice was clear, so that meant she was close. "She's close." He turned to face Lincoln with a smile on his face.

"She's close."

Jaha had taken Otan somewhere, and Emori had killed Gideon to steal the box thing away from him. Emori and Finn were checking what's inside, while Murphy stood a few feet behind them, curious, but she didn't want to listen to Finn's flirting.

Suddenly Murphy was pulled back, an arm snaking around her waist, while a knife was held against her throat. "Shit, Finn!"

Finn stood up, spinning around to face her, his eyes narrowing into a glare. "Let her go."

"Otan?" Emori asked, her eyes wide as she stared at her brother in disbelief.

"No one else has to die today." Jaha spoke, Murphy glared at him, wishing he would drop dead. "Give me the pack."

"You want it?" Finn held the pack in his hand, glancing down at it, then back at Jaha. "Then let her go."

"Finn, don't -" Murphy's next words were muffled as Otan placed his hand over her mouth. She struggled against him, but Otan just held the knife closer to her neck.

Murphy clenched her hands into fists before she threw her head back against Otan. He didn't even make a sound. She spun around, snatching the knife from Otan, her grip tight, "What the hell did you do to him?" She glanced at Jaha.

"Otan took the chip." Finn replied, scoffing at Jaha. "Emori, get on the boat."

Emori threw one last look at her brother before she rushed to get on the boat. "Murphy, come on."

Murphy walked backward, keeping an eye on Otan and Jaha. Once Murphy was behind him, Finn threw the pack to distract jaha and Otan.

Murphy and Finn ran to the boat, getting on, and Emori took off. Murphy looked back,and for a brief second, she thought she saw Wells standing beside Jaha.

She shook her head, looking away, looking towards Emori and Finn. She sat down without a word, a small sigh escaping her.

Someone sat down next to her, and she thought it was Finn. She turned her head, but she froze as she saw Mbege. No, it couldn't be.

"..Murph, you okay?" She tore her eyes away from Mbege and towards Finn, who looked at her with concern.

She glanced at Mbege, who was looking at her now, with a smile. She looked back at Finn, "I'm fine." She chuckled,

"I'm just glad we're away from Jaha and his craziness." She replied, Finn stared at her for a moment, his eyes furrowing a little, but he nodded his head slightly.

"Yeah. I'm glad we're away from that psycho.."
