Rock music blared over the speakers in the room. All around me, my fellow people were enjoying their time here, smacking each other with pillows, smiling, laughing. Above me, Clarke was sketching something in her binder, no doubt her mind still turning, searching for a way out. I couldn't find it in me to do anything but sit and listen to everyone else having fun. For as much as I wanted peace and relaxation, I couldn't enjoy this. I doubted I would ever have a good feeling about this place.
Jasper approached the bunk and stared at Clarke for a moment before saying, "It's not bad. Maybe they'll uh, hang it on the walls here one day."
Intrigued by the conversation, I rolled out of my bed and stood, leaning my arms on the bars surrounding Clarke's top bunk. I raised an eyebrow at her binder, where she'd been drawing schematics of every part of the mountain she knew, but I said nothing.
"Look who finally got released!" Someone called from the back of the room. I turned and saw Miller stroll into the room, escorted by Maya. He was the last of us to be released from Quarantine and I couldn't help my smile. Now that everyone was free, I could keep an eye on them, and if it came to it, we could defend each other.
Despite not knowing Miller very well, I gave him a hug. Maybe it was time I got to know my people better. "I'm glad you're okay."
"It only took, what, three surgeries?" He joked. His smile fell as he looked at me and Clarke. "I hear you guys are fitting right in."
I rolled my eyes and turned away from him. So much for being friendly.
"Twice a day, every day," Maya said, handing Miller a bottle of pills. "Don't forget. He'll be okay in a few days."
"Maya!" Jasper greeted her, a dorky smile on his face. Though not the normal kind. It was something a little different, something that reminded me of the way I looked at Bellamy. "Top of the mornin'...is a very dumb thing to say I saw in an old movie once."
I chuckled and turned away from him. Guess he had a bit of a crush. Not but a few seconds later, an alarm started wailing and everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at each other. That couldn't mean anything good.
I jumped in front of Maya before she left the room. "Hey, what's going on?"
"A surface patrol is back and someone needs medical attention," Maya explained. "I have to get to Quarantine."
I exchanged a glance with Clarke and she nodded. Without another word, I turned to follow Maya. Jasper grabbed my arm to stop me.
"Y/n, what are you doing?"
"Maybe they found survivors," I replied, unable to hide the desperation in my voice, the hope that it was Bellamy. "If our people are hurt, we have the right to know."
"Pretty sure we shouldn't go wandering around," Jasper countered.
"Why not?" I shot back. "We're not prisoners, right?"
Without waiting for him to respond, Clarke and I raced out of the room, and Jasper followed us closely behind. Down the hallway, everyone was donning a hazmat suit.
"What are we dealing with?" I heard Maya ask as we approached the group of people.
"They were attacked. One dead in room two," a man replied. "The other took his gloves and mask off to treat him. He's in decon. He'll need treatment soon."
Clarke stopped in the midst of the rushing people. "Who attacked them?"
The man turned to Maya. "What are they doing here?"
I looked over my shoulder and saw a man distracted with putting his hazmat suit on and took the chance to snatch his key card from his shirt pocket.
