"𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫."

I sat beside Monty as he informed me about the peace with the grounders gone wrong, not sparing any details. I can't believe nobody woke me up for this. I run my hands through my hair stressfully.

"We aren't going to survive down here are we?" I question Monty. He nudges my side, giving a hopeful smile. "Not with that attitude Sleeping Beauty."

"Pulling up with the nicknames now? Well, in that case you shall be called Green Bean from now on." I smile at Monty cheekily.

Octavia walks up to the two of us. "Hey, any sight of your brother or the others yet?" Monty questions. "Hey, I don't care." She responds.

Our attention shifts to Jasper as he continues to tell the story, but in his own interpretation of course. "Fear is only a problem if you let it stop you, right?"

Octavia rolls her eyes at Jasper "Thats not even his line. Finn said that."

"I saw the Grounders in the trees. It was like nothing I ever felt. You know, pure animal instinct took over. One pull of the trigger, two Grounders dead." Jasper tells the delinquents.

"Pure animal instinct? More like pure pant's-wetting panic." Octavia jokes, I lightly push her while giggling.

Jasper continues, "You don't really know what you're made of until a moment like that, you know, when it's kill or be killed and there's just nothing between you and the tip of the spear."

"Ok, this has to stop." Octavia whispers while walking towards the group. Monty quickly grabs Octavia wrist, "Oh, come on. Let us have this." Monty responds.

I furrow my eyebrows at him. "Us?" I ask at the same time as Octavia. "Look at him. Boys a folk hero. They even gave us a bigger tent." Monty continues.

"You two don't even need a bigger tent. You probably share the same bed, spooning." I tell him while making kissing faces at him. Octavia laughs as Monty slaps me in the back of the head.

"I could say the same for you and Bellamy." Monty grins. Octavia nudges me slightly, "He got you there."

I scoff at the Octavia, "This is your brother we are talking about here." Octavia puts her head on my shoulder, "Still doesn't stop me from thinking that you two are the cutest."

Suddenly the trip wire goes off, "Somebody hit the trip wire." Someone yells. I immediately sit up in panic, looking around at any sight of a grounder. I flinch harshly when I hear two gunshots.

"Lincoln." Octavia whispers lowly before rushing towards whoever tripped the wire. I look at her in concern before following after her.

I place my hand on Octavias shoulder as she crouches down beside whoever was laying on the floor. I observed the person, cuts and blood covered a majority of their body.

Octavia reaches towards them, immediately scaring them as they try to rush away.  I pull Octavia back protectively, scared they might hurt her.

My eyes widen as the light shines up their face. Murphy. Honestly I thought he would've been dead by now and as much as I wanted to hate Murphy for all he had done I felt bad for the boy. He looked awful.
