"Well maybe I do." Amethyst said making Octavia instantly shake her head. "No, Bellamy's right, no one deserves to be alone especially someone who has worked to hard to keep us safe." the teenager said as she pulled grass out of the ground making Amethyst grab her hand to stop her from doing so. "The grass did nothing to you, don't take it from it's home," the women said softly before gesturing for Bellamy to sit with them.

The man dropped his bag and gun from off his shoulders and tried to roll the kinks out of his back. "I know you didn't come here just so I wouldn't have to be alone, so what do you want?" Amethyst asked making the siblings share unsure expressions. "Please, the two of you need to stop doing that thing where you think I don't know you're hiding something from me. What did you come here for?" she asked again making Bellamy sigh.

"We need your help," he said making the women roll her eyes. "Of course you do, none of you would have survived without me." she replied making Bellamy nod his head in agreement. "You're right, but we could really use you to save our asses one last time," Bellamy sighed  running his fingers through his hair. Amethyst looked between the Blake siblings and raised her eyebrows in question. "What is it then?" she asked crossing her arms over her chest and leaning back against the cave wall.

"You're the only one who can get us in and out of Mount Weather." Bellamy said making the women scoff. "Anyone who goes in there? Will never come back out, so if you're going in there you should plan for a life long visit." She told the siblings with a sigh. "Then why are you heading there?" Octavia asked looking to the women who she idolized.

"The one person I have left was taken there by the Reapers," she replied referring to Lincoln. "How would you be any help to him if you went in there alone, you said it yourself. Anyone who goes in never comes out again," Bellamy questioned the women. Amethyst looked to the man lazily, almost like it took all her energy to do so.

"No one deserves to die alone." she uttered in response leaving the Blake siblings to look between each other unsure. Was Amethyst ready to give up so soon? There was no real way to know if Lincoln was dead, yet she was already accepting the fate. "How are you so sure he's going to-"

"How are you so sure your people will work alongside me long enough to get in and out of the mountain?" Amethyst asked cutting off Bellamy. He looked at the grounder unsure. For a moment he forgot that they weren't the same. They grew up completely different, they learned different thing, they live different - and she was supposed to be his enemy. "Tell me Bellamy Blake, how will this work? They already don't like your sister because I've been training her. And if they're anything like Finn, i'll be dead before I can get out the truth." Amethyst pushed, she knew going to talk to Bellamy's people would only end in chaos, and she was supposed to be someone who kept the peace.

"We won't let that happen," Octavia said butting into the conversation, Amethyst gave the girl a tiny sad smile. "You can't promise something like that, you do not control fate." Amethyst replied softly. But at the end of the day, Amethyst had nothing to lose. She was tired, worn down, and needed something to fight for again. These two, the Blake siblings were people she wanted to fight with - to fight for. So she sighed and nodded her head in agreement anyways. "I'll fight with you." she agreed making the siblings look at her confused.

"You said it yourself, you could die." Bellamy uttered confused. "Not if I kill them first." she said standing up and collecting the tiny belonging she had. Without uttering a single word, Bellamy handed Amethyst the bag he had, full of her belongings. Gently, Amethyst took the bag from his grasp and gave him a small smile and a nod in thanks. She took some of the arrows out of the bag and placed them in her quiver before throwing her quiver over her shoulders.

"If we're going, we leave now." Amethyst told the siblings, clicking her tongue waiting for her horse to stand up. Octavia nodded and stood up, and before the women could start walking Bellamy grabbed her arm in protest. "Think about this for a second, you said it yourself we can't protect you." Bellamy pushed wanting her to think about what she was doing.

Amethyst looked between the two siblings before uttering "Em would be a pleasure kom die gonplei by yu side." making Octavia shake her head in protest, only understanding a few words while Bellamy looked on shocked. "What does that mean?" Bellamy asked looking to his sister. "She's willing to die for us, so we can get our friends back." Octavia said softly, her voice hardly above a whisper.

"Maybe you shouldn't come, this was a bad idea." Bellamy said in protest making Amethyst turn around and look to the two siblings. "This was your idea. I just agreed, it's too late to back out now. So it's best if you come to terms with it, because no one lives forever." She told the Blake siblings. "I will help you get your friends back, and I will help you learn to survive down here just like i did Octavia, but I will not take orders from someone who doesn't know the meaning of loyalty." Amethyst snapped at the brunette man.

"Now to save what little patience I have, lets go." she said grabbing the reins attached to the horse and started walking in the direction that the Blake siblings had come from. Without another word about the subject, Octavia started to follow behind her friend jogging slightly to walk right by her side. Bellamy sighed before following behind the two girls and the horse, holding his gun ready for if anything came their way.

At the beginning, Bellamy thought that having Amethyst fighting alongside them was a good idea, but now he wasn't so sure. She was at high risk for doing something stupid, something that could kill her - yet she was completely okay with it. Amethyst was loyal to her people, but she was mostly loyal to what she believed was right. So in her case, she was loyal to the Sky People, wanting to see them survive and be able to live normally on the ground alongside her people. That was something Bellamy wanted for the future too, so now he had to keep his people alive and the grounder women who was ready to lay down her life for his people.

So, he would protect her at all costs because she was too valuable to lose.
