WHEN SHE AWOKE FROM HER STATE, her stomach churned. She never felt that sort of anger before, not even when her brother died or when Bellamy killed the sleeping army of three-hundred men. The red sun brought out so many emotions she's felt, making them twice as powerful. Her anger, her guilt was something she sadly couldn't control. When she stirred awake, she felt only guilt, the anger no longer being there.

Everything that happened in the hours the red sun was here filled her mind. She let out a loud gasp, covering her mouth. Her eyes dart everywhere for Clarke's, Raven's and Madi's body or for the scenery of Polis, her heart pounding incredibly against her ribcage.

But thankfully, she wasn't in Polis nor was Clarke's, Raven's or Madi's body laying on the ground with their throats slit open. She glanced at her hands to see there was a few specks of dried blood on her hands, then she remembered that it was Redick's blood, not Raven's, Clarke's or Madi's.

She remembered screaming at people to let her go so she could kill Redick, screaming about how he was a murderous traitor. Then she remembered tackling him down to the ground with her sword. She pierced through his leg, she almost pierced his chest, too. Falo's jaw dropped, not knowing if he really was still alive.

Falo brought her hands up to her face. "What have I done?"

"Falo?" a soft voice whispered. Falo jumped, seeing it was Emori, only less full of rage. Echo still laid unconscious on the ground.

A sob broke from her throat. "Did I. . . Did I kill Redick?"

The doorknob turned before Emori was able to answer. Falo stared at the door, waiting for Redick or even Bellamy to break open the door to kill them all. They deserved it after almost killing each other off.

Yet it was someone nobody expected — Octavia.

Eyebrows drawn together, Falo was confused on how Octavia got here on the planet instead of being in cryosleep. Octavia wore a jacket, bruises spotting from her jawline to her collarbone, her lip was busted open. The last time Falo actually saw her was when Octavia was put down to sleep when Bellamy promised everyone they would all see each again in the regrown Earth after ten years, which never happened. They were now on Alpha.

"I've got the keys," Octavia declared. She entered the room and headed over to Emori first, unlocking her cuffs. Octavia placed another key in Emori's hand and she darted off to Echo who stirred in her sleep while Octavia walked over to Falo.

Falo's heart dropped seeing Octavia. The last time Falo saw her and actually held a conversation, she was dying in her arms and choking on her own blood, and Octavia was Blodreina instead of acting like a normal, decent person as it seemed like she was trying to do.
