Me, Tavia, Indra, and others were making our way to the mines while Clarke is telling the plan to some of our people.

We walked in complete silence, the only noise that could be heard was our footsteps against the damp floor.

"According to Lincoln's map, we're getting close..." Tavia muttered

"It's a maze... he should be here to guide us." I sigh

"He wasn't ready. He knew it. He'll do good fighting with the commander." Indra reassured

"It meant a lot that you forgave him." Tavia smiled

"He earned it. I known Lincoln since he was a boy. He has always questioned our ways. If he ever chooses sides again the clans again... not even his bravery can save him." Indra frowned

Suddenly we heard a lound clang noise and the guards pointed their guns in the direction and began to shoot. Idiots.

"Stop shooting!" I yell

"Let me pass I'm not the enemy!" Indra orders

"We don't kill them unless-" I was cut off by reapers charging at us

"Now!" Jackson yells

Suddenly the tone generators went off causing the reapers to groan and fall to the ground. Jackson then urged Tavia to grab the tranquilizers and she quickly rushed to get them.

Jackson stabbed the reapers with the tranquilizers and we looked around before moving on.

Indra turned one of the reapers and paused for a long second

"You knew him?" I asked

"He'll be okay. Abby will help him." Tavia reassured

Indra stood up and took out her sword.

"Let's go. We have to find the door." Indra nodded

After what felt like hours but was only minuets, we found the door.

"We found it." Tavia smiled

"You found it." I corrected

"It seems that we did not need Lincoln after all." Indra says, proud of Tavia

"Thank you." Tavia says sheepishly

"You've done well Octavia... kom Trigedakru and Aurora kom Trigedakru. You are the youngest in your clan to go to war. Congratulations." Indra nods

"What dose that mean?" Tavia and I ask

"What do you think it means?" Indra questions

"I think I wanna hear you say it again.." Tavia says

I nod in agreement.

"You are one of us now." Indra says before we begin to walk forwards.

While at the door, we hear the horn, signaling the retreat. We look at each other in confusion before Indra speaks up

"We're retreating."

"That can't be right." I mumble in confusion

"We have to go now." Indra orders

"Indra wait. They're still in there." Tavia protested

"And our commander is still out there. Under attack for all we know." Indra fires back

"I don't trust her. Not after Tondc." Tavia frowns

"I gave you a direct order. Aurora can do as she pleases because she is not my second but you must do as I say." Indra grumbles
