Raven, Clarke, Bellamy and Daenerys exited to lab, properly suited up, and Raven explained what they had to do, to turn in the Ark system online.

"All good." Clarke nodded while Daenerys looked away, intrigued by someone coming. When she saw Murphy carrying the oxygen generator alone she rushed to him.

"John, hold on!" She reaches him and started helping him.

"No, you're not carrying this."

"John, I'm capable."

"You are, but you're also not in the state. Bellamy!" Bellamy rushed to him and helped with the heavy cargo. Daenerys was a little annoyed but thankful. Those thought vanished.

"Where's Monty?" She asked, and Murphy looked down.

"He's in trouble. He had to expose his hands. He passed out. Look. If we go back now, we can get to him." Bellamy have him a surprised look. "You can be impressed with me later. We got to go." He said and they all nodded. Daenerys rushed to get Harper, so that she could help Raven get the machine inside, while the boys went to get Monty. She brought Harper who took Murphy's place, and Raven took Bellamy's. He was about to go but Daenerys caught his arm and they looked in each other's eyes.

"In case I don't see you again-" she started.

"You will. We're meeting in time back in the lab." He assured and sighed sadly as he left, quickly following after Clarke who was already on her way towards the satellite tower. The two walked fast, without saying a word. They were too focused on getting that job done and coming back in time, which was a hard enough job. They had to make it, though they had to come back with 10 minutes left on their countdowns, at least, and it showed a little more than 11 minutes. The tower was huge, but the cupboard where they had to plug in the pad was at the bottom. They ran to it and took out their tools.

"Ok, plug this here." Daenerys told Clarke who did as told, eyeing her countdown from time to time.

"Sat-Star-One. Okay...Sat-Star-One." Daenerys muttered and they both waited for the computer feedback.

"Dish not aligned. Dish not aligned." It said and they exchanged a slightly panicked look.

"No.. Wha- What did we do wrong?!" Clarke protested and Daenerys tried doing it again.

"Dish not aligned."

"The hell! Clarke can you try the radio, asking Raven, I'll take a look." Clarke nodded and pulled out the radio.

"Raven, please say that you can hear me. Something went wrong. We did everything you said, but it wouldn't--"

"Hold on.." Daenerys cut. "We need to go manual."

"uh, okay. Manual operation?" She repeated while Daenerys looked where that had to be.

"You've got to be kidding me."Daenerys sighed.

"What is it?" The blonde asked.

"We need to move the parabola to make it work. We need to climb the tower."

"No way...we'll never make it back." Clarke protested and they looked for another way.

"It's already too late." Daenerys stated. "We need ten minutes and we only have 9:30 left. We can at least die saving our friends."

"No." Clarke cut. You're not dying. You need to go, now!" Daenerys stared at her friend, flabbergasted.

"I'm not leaving you behind, Clarke. There's no way!"

"Please, Daenerys. I need to do this. I'm sorry for the bunker, and for all the crap I did."

"Hey, let's start climbing. I'm not leaving you alone. So keep talking as we climb." Daenerys said as she grabbed the steal bars, but Clarke held her arm, looking at her friend with a pleading look.

"I couldn't save her...I couldn't and she died...you are one with her, and saving you, it's like getting a second chance at saving her..." she explained, not once saying her name, Lexa's name. Daenerys felt sorry, and knowing she probably wasn't gonna make it anyway, she thought it better if she died at least trying to save herself, trying to make Clarke as happy as she could be in the situation. "Let me save you.." Clarke insisted and Daenerys nodded, hugging her friend.

"Go as fast as you can. You could always try to reach the lighthouse bunker."

"I'll do my best. Now you run like hell." Clarke said.

"May we meet again."

"May we meet again." The blonde nodded. "Raven...if you can hear me, don't wait." Daenerys heard her say before adding "Ai gonplei ste odon..." Daenerys knew that her chances were scarce as well but she ran like never before. She wanted to survive, she wanted to survive with Bellamy. Turning around, she saw, a few hundred meters away, the destructive wave, coming to get them. The rocket had to leave or they would never get off the ground.

Cue music.

She never stopped, never stopped to look back again, she had to get to the lab... The sound of what seemed like an explosion made her look up. The rocket...

It was in the sky. It was moving away, farther and farther away in the sky. "Ai gonplei ste odon." She whispered. Instead of going to the lab, she changed course and ran like hell toward the lighthouse bunker. The heat from the wave was getting closer, but she had to outrun it. Her survivor's instinct kicked in hard, the adrenaline was rushing through her. The lighthouse was there, a hundred meters away. She could see it.

80 meters. The trees were burning behind her. All thoughts were gone, she had one thing in mind, the bunker.

60 meters. It seemed like the longest distance she had ever had to run. Never ending. Was she ever gonna make it?

40 meters. The heat was unbearable, the radiation getting stronger every second. She felt her skin burn, like she had never felt. She had never felt this burning sensation because of her strange DNA. It was painful...

20 meters... so close. So close yet so far. Deadly far...

10 meters. How she wished she could fly. The pain was growing, and she was getting tired. She felt like she couldn't run anymore but forced herself to do it. Only a few more meters. She banged against the door, and got in. She had less than two minutes to get the extra oxygen generator hooked up.

The engine was close to the outside door, luckily so she managed to put it up, where the old one was.

"Argh!" She screamed, removing her glove to plug it. She had never been that fast. She turned it on and close the shutter before rushing in and closing all the safety doors.

She grunted as she removed her helmet and walked down the stairs. The pain was too great, but she managed to get herself to the sofa where she removed her suit. She grunted in pain, but managed to get to some water.

The shaking was hellish, and she had no shame feeling afraid. She wasn't afraid, she was terrified. The shaking wouldn't stop and she felt like the building was going to collapse.

She wished something would distract her of the pain and the fear.. But Bellamy was gone, she was alone and going to die...

She closed her eyes, her hand on her stomach, crying. Why did it have to be like this? Why?

"Help..." she heard, jumping from her seat. It came from deeper in the building. Someone was there. "Help..." it was getting weaker...

Forgetting about herself, she rushed to where the plea was coming from...
