"Yo gonplie ste odon."

I averted my horrified gaze from the woman who remains alive in the containment tube, Indra's hand suffocating her. It's a much more peaceful death then what the worms would've done to her. I can't believe Clarke and Monty had caught her doing this. In fact, I can't believe Octavia would've authorised this.

Hearing the beeping of a keypad behind me, I turn with Clarke and Bellamy. We all know it's Octavia and Kara, we summoned them. "Let's get this over with", Indra mutters striding past me. Indra apparently didn't appreciate being kept in the dark about this either, revealed in her sharp gaze and purposeful strides as we follow her out of the quarantine.

Kara is the first inside, her gaze widening upon the sight of us. "What the hell are they doing here Indra?"

Octavia doesn't appear as shocked as she waltzes past Kara, leaving her to shut the behind them on her secret. Judging from Octavia's collected expression she adorns, I already know she knew this was happening. She gave the order. "You wanted to see me?" Octavia asks, coming to stand before us as if she wasn't breeding killer worms right behind us.

"You knew about this", I blatantly state to her, not even questioning the thought. It's written all over her face.

Octavia's gaze flickers to mine, giving a small tilt of her head "Of course I knew about this. It was my idea." Scoffing I shake my head, utter disdain written across my features. Seeing this Octavia tells me "You can hate this all you want Ave but we're up against an army with superior firepower and every geographical advantage. This is how we overcome that."

"What happens when your secret weapon destroys the valley you're fighting for?" Clarke snaps in disbelief, her blue eyes narrowed towards Octavia.

"I ran some tests", Kara responds without hesitation "The worms can't survive in a green environment for more than a few days...long enough to kill everyone they come in contact with before we get there-"
