My eyes flutter open, my head feeling groggy. I shake my head a little bit, going to sit up but feel myself stopped. Hands gently push me back down. I open my eyes and meet blue ones. Immediately followed by a smile. 

"Hey," they speak, tilting their head to the side. I close my eyes a second feeling them squeeze my hand.

"C-Clarke," I choke out, feeling my mouth try. 

"I'm right here-" she squeezes my hand pausing a second. I open my eyes meeting hers. 

"T-The grounders-" I stop feeling a sharp pain in my stomach. 

"You're safe now Y/N. They can't hurt you." I shake my head from side to side trying to sit up. Clarke is quick on her feet, grabbing a hold of my shoulders pushing me back down gently. "You can't be getting up. You just got out of surgery." 

"Th-They're in trouble."

"Who? The grounders?" I nod my head at her question. My lips separate to speak again when the doors to the room Clarke and I are in open. Clarke tears her eyes away from me and turns around. I follow with my own eyes to be met with a worried looking Raven. I stare at her as she exchanged looks with Clarke. But before long she begins walking over and that's when I realize the brace around her leg. Gently, I sit up a bit, wincing as I do. 

"R-Raven?" I say as she walks up to me and to the side. Our eyes lock and without a word she wraps her arms around me. Hesitant at first, I wrap my arms around her, closing my eyes. She was the last person I had seen before the grounders took me. 

"Thank god you're okay," she whispers into my ear. I nod and we pull apart. A smile spreads to the girl's lips as I barely give one back, looking away and to Clarke. From there I look back and forth between the two girls. "So where have you been all this time?" I turn my head and look to Raven. 

"With the grounders, Trikru," I respond. Raven looks away from me and to Clarke. Both of them wore a confused look across their face. "I w-was with the commander." 

"And they didn't kill you?" Clarke asks. I shook my head from side to side, looking a bit confused but understood where she was coming from. The two began to look at one another like they were debating something with just their eyes. 

"What is it? J-Just tell me," I finally speak, my eyes continuing to look back and forth between them. 

"Jaha had com back with a message from the commander," Clarke began. I kept my focus on her a bit confused on how Jaha got down here, but I guess I can't be too confused considering Abby and Kane are down here along with the Arc. But I nod feeling Raven squeeze my hand. I hadn't even realized she was holding my hand. "The commander said leave or die. We had two days, now we have less than three hours. 

"What? No..." My voice trails off as I look towards the door. I keep my gaze on there for a while thinking long and hard. "You have to let me go back."
