Bellamy, Octavia and Raven all lead the Grounder through the camp. Bellamy noticing that she would often fall behind, her eyes growing wide as she looked at the Ark itself or looking around at the sky people themselves. "Your camp, it has a smell." Amethyst said making the three look at her oddly. "What? Sweat?" Raven asked with a chuckle making the woman shake her head.

"No," the woman inhaled. "Something unfamiliar, you smell of it Raven." The woman said making Raven bring her t-shirt to her nose and inhaling. The sent of oil and gas filled her nose making Raven chuckle. "It's motor oil and gasoline from when the Ark came down to earth." She explained making Amethyst nod her head before Bellamy reached out for her so they could get to the Med tent before anyone really took notice to her.

Amethyst put her hand in Bellamys and allowed him to guide her through the crowds making Raven and Octavia share a look between each other. Opening the flap to the Med tent, two unfamiliar older people stood talking to each other while Clarke and Murphy stood opposite of one another. "My dear friend." Amethyst greeted Murphy, walking up to him and grabbing his arm before pulling him into a half hug making the boy chuckle while everyone else looked on in shock. "How have you been? Your wounds are healing nicely." She added in, grabbing onto either side of the boys face and inspecting the wounds she had cleaned up a few days prior making the boy chuckle and take her hands from his face.

"I've been fine, thanks to you." He said before the clearing of someones throat made the conversation between the two come to a halt. "Bellamy, you brought a grounder into our camp?" Amethyst could only assume him to be Kane hissed.

"She's here to help us." Octavia butted in making Amethyst hold her hand up to stop the girl. "I can speak for myself strik cub." She said, holding her head higher and pushing her shoulders back to look bigger. "I have come with a proposition, to get your people out of the Mountain." Amethyst said making a spark of hope flash through Clarkes eyes as she looked up to her mother.

"I have people in there myself that need help. All I'm saying is you hear out my Commander long enough to work out a deal, and then we can all part our ways. The Grounders will leave you alone as long as you respect us enough to do the same." The woman told the two adults much older than her. Amethyst hated the way she sounded talking deals and bargains - she sounded like a true commander.

"How do we know that any of your fellow people will hold up their end of the deal?" Kane shot back at the girl making her chuckle slightly. "I know they will, because I myself am a Commander. Trained by the best of our warriors in Ton DC. Gifted my title and role by Commander Anya herself. The people will listen to me." Amethyst assured them.

"Wait Anya?" Clarke questioned making Amethyst nod her head, not taking her eyes off of the blonde teenage girl. "She's the one that I escaped the mountain with, if-if she's dead who's left in her place?" The teenage girl added in. Something in the pit of Amethyst's stomach grew at the news of her commander passing.

"We've already dealt with the matter. Her name is Lexa, and she is the best Commander our people have ever seen." The woman informed them. "If you are willing to do this, I will make my way to our capital to arrange a meeting for you two." She told everyone, but her eyes were on Clarke. She remembered Lexa saying she would only talk to Clarke.

"I would love to talk to this, Commander." Kane said making the grounder shake her head. "She will only speak too Clarke." The tension in the tent grew at the news. Abbey wanted to protest, say that her daughter wouldn't talk to a Grounder leader on her own. But she knew that no matter what - Clarke knew more about the ground than anyone on the Ark did.

"I'll go." Clarke said finally making Amethyst nod her head. "I will go arrange the meeting then. Keep an eye on the tree line. I will be back in three moons time." Amethyst said with a bow of her head before going to leave the tent when Abbey spoke up.

"How do we know you won't go back on your word? That we can even trust you?" She asked making the grounder chuckle. "I was assigned by my Commander to spy on the children that came down to the sky and well - they didn't die under my watch so." She replied before pushing the flap from the tent back and stepping outside once again.

Bellamy and Octavia followed close behind her, walking her back to the fence where she had entered. "Let me come with you this time." Octavia begged. Making the grounder shake her head.

"You may understand the language, you may be training like us - but you are not a grounder yet Strik cub. They will eat you up as soon as you step foot in the capital, and I do not want to see something happen to you." Amethyst explained making the girl huff and cross her arms over her chest. "Maybe while I'm gone, you can kick your big brother to the ground." Amethyst said in a whisper making Octavia giggle as the two girls look at Bellamy. "What are you two whispering about now?" Bellamy asked, a small smile on his face making them both shrug their shoulders making him roll his eyes slightly.

They had finally arrived back to the fence making Octavia throw herself into Amethysts arms. The grounder was growing used to the teenagers affections, and returned the hug back before patting her back as she let go. "Remember what I told you." She said making Octavia nod her head.

The woman started to climb through the fence again before a hand reached out and grabbed hers. She looked back and saw Bellamy who looked shocked himself, like he didn't mean to do what he did. "Stay safe." Bellamy said clearing his throat. Amethyst smiled to herself, before leaning up and pressing her lips to the mans cheek.

"I'll see you in three moons time." She assured once more, before slipping out of the fence and running towards the tree line and back to her horse.
