╚═══════════════╝WHILE LEXA WAS locked in the cell with the two men from Skaikru, Alexander could not bear to leave her alone. He listened in on the conversations, making sure his sister would not face danger of any kind. A commotion from inside startled the young prince, but Ryder silently told him to wait patiently.
He could hear a scream of pain, before hearing disapproving shouts. Alexander snapped his head up to meet Ryder's gaze. Still, the man shook his head at the prince. However, when one of the prisoners said, "I choose to live," Alexander stood abruptly and marched inside the cell.
One of the prisoners had Lexa wrapped in a chokehold with a knife pressed to her throat. "Take off these chains." He demanded. A wave of shock, and anger flowed through Alexander upon taking sight of this.
The other prisoner, who was to their left, with a worried expression on his face tried to reason with his friend. "Thelonious, please. She's just an innocent girl."
"Em don sad klin." Lexa said. "Disha won's mine."
Their commander then reached up, and grabbed Thelonious's hand with her left, and punched him in the face with her other. He fell back, which granted her the ability to swing around and slam him to the floor. She then pressed her knee to his chest to prevent him from rising up, and fighting back. Following, she pressed the knife to his neck. "Okay." Thelonious muttered.
Lexa rose to her feet, and turned to the grounder men near the entrance. "Ai don sen in chit bilaik ai gaf sen in."
"Sha, heda." The men replied in unison. She faced the prisoners and held up the knife, which Alexander took from her. Ryder placed her armor on her shoulder, which she clipped on from the front.
The prisoner still standing asked in disbelief, "You're the commander?"
"I've learned much about you." Lexa replied, taking a few steps towards him. "It's clear your intentions are honorable. Your desire for peace is true. Breik em au."
One of the grounder men pushed past Alexander, and unbound the prisoner. Lexa continued, "Later we will talk. In the meantime, your friend will be used to send a message."
The now free prisoner tried to reason, "No. No, stop." However, it was too late. The grounder who unbound the prisoner, wrapped his arms around him to prevent and escape. An additional two grounders then walked to Thelonious and began to beat him, maliciously. "Stop! Stop please!"
When Thelonious's face was bloodied and swollen, the two grounders brought him to his feet, and began to lead him from the cell.
"The massacre must be answered." Lexa explained. "Blood must have blood."
