I watched as Murphy pulled lever. The dropship door slowly opened. "Just you, Bellamy. Unarmed. 10 seconds or I put one in Jasper's leg." He began to count.

"I'm here." Bellamy said as he calmly walked into the dropship. He looked over at me. No ounce of emotion on his face. What was he up to I thought! Murphy pushed Jasper out. When he had left the ramp, he pulled the lever again closing the door.

Turning he looked at me. "You, over there!" He nodded to the ladder. I walked over reluctantly. He tied my wrists to the ladder. They were so tight I could feel the blood being cut off. I pulled on them a bit to loosen them.

He turned to Bellamy. "Tie a noose." He told him. Bellamy nodded and started to tie some seatbelts together. My stomach tightened when I realised what Murphy was doing.

"Murphy, please." I begged him. Murphy fired the gun in the air.

"Bellamy?" Octavia called over the walkie. Fear and worry in her voice. "Bellamy are you ok?"

"You want her to know you're ok? Start tying!"

"Bellamy do you copy?" Octavia's voice had turned from fear and worry to pure anger.

Murphy held the walkie out so Bellamy could speak. "I'm fine. Just a misfire. Now stop worrying about me and get back to work, all of you. And tell Raven to hurry her ass up." I looked at him. He was up to something I just knew it.

"Alright that's enough." Murphy said pulling the walkie away. "Now tie those ends together." Bellamy did as Murphy instructed. "Good. Now get up and toss it over." Murphy had his gun trained on Bellamy all the time.

I watched as Bellamy tossed the noose over a piece of metal. "What do you want me to say? You want me to apologise? Bellamy took a step forward. "I'm-" Murphy lifted the gun higher causing Bellamy to stop and step back. "Im sorry!"

Murphy laughed. "You got it all wrong Bellamy. I don't want you to say anything. I want you to feel what I felt, and then!" He stopped and looked at me. "Then I want you to die." I gasped at the last part. Bellamy caught my eye causing Murphy to look at me again. "If you don't! I'll kill her."

My eyes filled with tears. "It's okay." I said with a shaky voice. "I came to terms with my death back on the Ark." I laughed lightly. Trying to lighten the mood.

Murphy turned back to Bellamy. "Drag that stool over here." He pointed to under the noose. "Stand on it." Bellamy stood. "Now put it over your head." You gestured to the noose. I watched everything seemed to be happening in slow motion.

"Bellamy." He looked at me. I mouthed some words to him so that only he could know them. He nodded. Murphy watched our interaction with hawk like eyes.

"Happy now?" Bellamy asked once he was done. Murphy nodded then yanked at the chord causing the rope to tighten around Bellamy's throat. Bellamy's hand flew up to the rope, trying to stop it from blocking his airways.

"You're so brave! Aren't you?" I could tell Murphy was taunting him. Trying to get a reaction. "I mean you came in here thinking you would turn this whole thing around, that you were stronger then me, and maybe one of your friends would come and help you." He pulled the rope tighter causing Bellamy to stand on his tiptoes.

"Murphy please." I begged him as tears fell from my eyes. I tugged at my restraints, trying to loosen even more. Murphy just shook his head at me.

"You know, I got to hand it to you Bellamy. You got em all fooled. They actually look up to you, almost as much as they do Clarke. Yeah, well we know the truth, don't we? You're a coward." Bellamy glared at him. "I learned that the day you kicked the crate from beneath me. Isn't that what you said? That you were just giving the people what they wanted, right?"
