The alarms were ringing through Arkadia as Gabriella and Bellamy rushed out of their room and towards lock-up, the small moment they were having before being forgotten as panic replaced the butterflies that previously found their way into their stomachs.
When they arrived at where the grounders were locked up, Gabriella first saw James clinging to his stomach in pain on the floor and then she noticed one of the guards launching himself on Lincoln's back and she didn't hesitate to pull out the small gun in her jeans and shoot him straight in the shoulder.
James was quick to get to his feet and caught Gabriella's wrist, pinning her towards the metal wall and glaring down at her as another grounder tried fighting Lincoln.
"I knew I couldn't trust you." he spat out, caging her body with his own. She tried to fight out of his grip and was about to knee him between his legs, when Bellamy beat her to it by slamming the back of his gun on the back of James' head.
Gabriella sighed in relief and gave Bellamy a thankful nod. A moment later, Harper ran into the room and electrified one of the guards. She rushed towards Gabriella and Bellamy, grabbed each of them by their wrists and pulled them away from the big fight and around the corner.
"It worked. We're clear." she said into the walkie in her hand, "The guards have their hands full."
Kane's voice soon came from the walkie, "𝘐𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘨𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘰𝘱𝘦𝘯?"
"𝘞𝘢𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘰𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶." Philip responded almost immediately.
"𝘐'𝘭𝘭 𝘣𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘸𝘰."
Gabriella sighed at her step father's words and flinched at the sound of the guards and the grounders still fighting. She looked towards Harper expectantly, "What now?"
