Thea was woken by Clarke bursting into her tent and exclaiming loudly that she needed her help. Thea opened her eyes groggily and stared up at the Blonde hovering above her.
'Bellamy's gone after the pod, we have to go after him," She said bluntly.
"What pod?" Thea groaned out as she swung her legs over the bed and relaced up her boots.
"You didn't see it?" Finn asked, coming into the tent to see what was taking so long.
"Clearly not, Shark Boy," She got to her feet, shrugging on the jacket she had stolen for warmth.
Clarke leads out of the tent, leading the small group out of camp.
"Shark boy?" Finn asked after a while, clearly confused by Thea's nickname.
"Sharks have Finns, Thought you were smart?" Thea responded, stepping over a root and turning to flash Finn a wide smile.
Finn scoffed, and the group lapsed into silence as they continued to trek through the woods.
"This isn't your fault, Clarke," Finn said as They all continued to trek.
"I should've known he'd go for that radio," Clarke responded instantly.
"How are you supposed to know something like that?" Thea asked, leading the group after Finn gave her the right direction to go.
"Because he's 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."
"That's exactly what I have to do. I screwed up. Let myself get distracted."
From the way Finn looked at Clarke with betrayal in his eyes, Thea assumed that she was meaning getting distracted was something to do with Finn.

Clarke, Finn and Thea all split off to find Raven. Thea stood and watched as Clarke ran in one direction, Finn going another. She hesitated for a bit, the thought running through her mind for a moment that she could slip away like this. She let go of the idea, instead, heading through the forest to where she thought the pod may be.
As she continued, she started to feel the sense someone was watching her. She knew for a fact that she was to trust her instincts, so she did. She stopped in her tracks, turning to look into the woods.
"Show yourself." She said in her tongue, expecting someone to drop from a tree next to her. Instead, Nat came out of the bushes, flanked by two different warriors from her village.
"We need to talk," Nat said simply, taking Thea's arm tightly and pulling her further through the bush away from the two Warriors.
"You look just like them," Nat hissed as soon as he was sure they were out of Earshot.
