"Rachel?" It was Clarke.
"Huh? What?"
"Are you okay? You've been staring at nothing for the past 5 minutes."
"Yeah, yeah I'm fine. Just kinda spaced out I guess. Was there something you needed?"
"Just needed you to check on the other patient while I finish up here."
"Sure thing." I walked over to the other cot where a female patient lay. She was unconscious and had been for the past week. Her hair was brown and her facial features were bold and strong but beautiful.
From behind me a gruff voice spoke, "how is she?" It was Roan.
"She's fine," Clarke replied as she walked over to where we were. "She'll be okay, Roan."
"You know her?" I questioned him.
"She's an Azgedan spy, much like Jessica was. Azgeda's secret weapons, it's why they don't bear the mark."
I nodded, my mind drifting yet again. It had been weeks since Roan had mentioned Jessica's name. In fact, anytime anyone mentioned her name his face turned even more stone like than it already was. With my mind now full of unresolved questions I looked at Clarke and asked, "did you need anything else from me?"
"No, I can take care of Echo from here. You should go too, Roan."
Nodding his head, Roan followed me out of the medical bay. "Roan, can I ask you something? But promise not to take it offensively."
"I can't promise you anything, but you're free to ask me."
"Do you ever like...wonder what happened to Jessica?"
"What makes you ask that?" His tone was neutral as we continued to walk.
"It's just, it's been a few months since you last saw her and you were so happy and excited to be reunited before that whole debacle presented itself. I guess what I'm trying to say is, don't you want to see her again?"
We had stopped walking now and Roan only stared at me intensely. His eyes locked on mine made me slightly nervous and scared. He took a deep long sigh before answering, "it's only every second of everyday that I think about finding her. But with everything that happened, I doubt she'd want to me to find her."
"But she let Octavia go, that has to mean something right?"
"I don't know what it means, Rachel. But if I could, I would go and find her. Make things right again."
"You could."
"What?" He furrowed his brows with confusion.
"I'm saying, no one is stopping you. I'll come with you. She's my friend too, I'd like to go and see her."
"We'll go when Echo recovers. She'll be of great help as she is on good terms with Jessica. Do you know how she got here by chance? Echo?"
"I believe she was attacked in the woods or something. It all just happened in a rush while you were out hunting with Kane. Bellamy rushed her in."
He only nodded and turned around and left me to stand alone. Not knowing what to do I made my way back to the med bay and found Clarke.
"Hey! You're back."
"Yeah, I just got done talking to Roan."
"About?"
"Finding Jessica."
"Why? Why would you feel the need to go looking for her? Hasn't she already caused enough trouble?"
"I get that you don't like her-"
"Yeaaahh." She scoffed.
"But at least she gave Octavia back."
"AFTER she threatened to have her head! AFTER she declared war and barricaded our entire camp."
"Look Clarke, whether you like it or not, Roan and I are leaving to find her when Echo is fully recovered."
"Fine. Then I'm coming too." She said crossing her arms in front of her chest.
"I thought she caused enough trouble for you?" I mocked.
"I just don't need anyone else getting hurt."
"I'm coming too!" It was Octavia standing by the doorway. "I wanna know why she gave me up like that."
"Count me in," Bellamy chimed in, now standing behind Octavia, "I'm not letting any of you go alone."
"We've got each other," Clarke said, "we've got Roan too."
"And when they welcome Roan, king of Azgeda and Echo here, then lock all 3 of you up who's gonna come to save you?"
"Fine, fine!" I rolled my eyes at the 3 of them. "We'll all go together when Echo fully recovers."
Just as I finished speaking, Abby and Marcus came walking in. "And where exactly are you all going?"
"To find Jessica." Bellamy replied.
Abby and Marcus exchanged looks and simultaneously stated, "we're coming too."
"That's not necessary." Clarke protested.
"I'm not letting you go by yourself, Clarke."
"I've got these guys coming with me."
"CLARKE."
"Okay, mom."
"I want to find my daughter." Marcus stated.
"Okay. Fine, we're all going to find Jessica. Let's just hope Echo recovers soon.
