"Hey, Kitty, look! A shooting star, you should make a wish."

I remembered my brother advice from many years ago as I watched the sky. When I asked him why I should do that, he only answered that is a thing people used to do a long time ago. My brother was always fascinated by astronomy and he explained me what was a shooting star, the difference between a shooting star, real stars and planets. As I remembered him, my heart sank in pain. He was just another person I knew and died. Exactly then I saw a bright star passing. This was a shooting star.

"Oh, Christian, I wish you were here with me."

When I wanted to return to drop ship to sleep I saw a few teens getting out from their tents, including a shirtless Bellamy looking at the start that appeared on the sky. It didn't look like the ones my brother showed me before. It looked like a pod with a parachute.

"Hey, guys," I started immediately as I saw Clarke and Finn coming back to the camp. "That is from the Ark, right?"

"Let's go to find out," offered Finn.

"Well, I heard Bellamy saying that we need to wait until sunrise." 

"Where is he now, Kitty?"

"I don't know. I saw him exiting a few moments ago but I can't tell you where he is right now." Clarke and Finn entered to his tent but Clarke exited almost instantly.

"Gear's gone." she told me.

"He told everyone to stay." I said a bit confused.

"Whatever is in that thing, he wants it. We've gotta get there before he does. Kitty, grab your stuffs. You coming too. I should've known he'd go for that radio."

"How are you supposed to know something like that?" said Finn.

"Clarke, what radio?" I asked still confused by everything.

"I think that this pod has a radio and Bellamy went to destroy it. He spent every single minute since we landed making sure no one on The Ark finds out we're alive."

"It doesn't mean you can predict what people are gonna do." said Finn as Clarke took some knives.

"That's exactly what I had to do. I screwed up. Let myself distracted." When Clarke wanted to give me a knife too I shook my head showing mine. It was the one Bellamy gave me when he first met Charlotte.

"Where do you get that?"

I sighed deeply looking at it. "He... Bellamy gave it to me," I explained. "Let's do this and let's hope the grounders don't want to see us today."

We walked the whole night without finding nothing. There was no sign of Bellamy Blake.

"Should we split up?"

"Yeah, me and Kitty, we go that way." answered Clarke and I followed her lead. After a while we found a small pod. Clarke opened the door and I saw a beautiful girl inside but her forehead was covered in blood.

"I made it? Ha, I dreamed it would smell like this." the girl said looking at us. The girl got out and she abandoned her astronaut costume and started to turn around on the leaves. It was pouring a little so I had to tell her that what she was feeling was the rain. When Finn arrived too, he ran to that girl and she looked very happy to see him and then they kissed. I didn't need to see Clarke's face to knew she was upset. But the girl that came from the sky was dizzy and she almost fell on the ground. Finn helped her to sit on a rock.

"I'm sorry." said Finn as he approached to us.

"Let's not talk about this." Clarke answered as gave him some kind of a bandage.
