Sawyer had been limping around trying to help as much as possible. She stopped for a break and bent over trying to catch her breath. She had a thick brace on her thigh which restricted some movements while she tried to get used to it. It was raining and filth dripped down Sawyer's body flowing off her

"Here's some water" Sawyer looked up to see her Dad. Sawyer gasped in shock and jumped on him "Dad" she cried holding him tight 

"When I heard what happened I came as fast as I could" Chris said holding his girl in his arms

"Are you ok?" he asked releasing her. "I'm ok, a little scuffed up but nothing a Jameson can't handle" Sawyer said lightly smiling

"Cole is really worried" Chris said as he bent over. He picked up the rag from the bucket of water and squeezed out the excess

"Sit" Chris commanded. Sawyer nodded and sat on the rock right behind her. Chris cleaned her face cautious of the cuts. He wiped out the dust from her hair while she cleaned off her clothes

"Are you scared?" Chris asked genuinely wondering how she managed to wake up everyday and do this

"Always" Sawyer answered truthfully

"Commander, it is time to go" Ryder said walking up to the Father and Daughter. Sawyer nodded and stood up. She hugged her Father one last time and asked him "Take care of Atlas and Cole for me"

Chris nodded and Sawyer limped away following behind Lexa who led their group. Clarke was behind her as they boldly walked through

(2 days later)

Sawyer and Octavia were sitting in front of a camp fire trying to figure out how the hell Clarke and Lexa survived. It just didn't made sense, nothing did. "You guys ok?" Sawyer looked up to making eye contact with Clarke who sat down across from them

"I've been going over it and over it in my head, just trying to figure out how you're still alive" Sawyer said malice in her voice, she knew some shady shit went on and she wanted to know

"What are you talking about?" Clarke asked. Sawyer could just tell she was acting clueless, it was written all over her face

"I saw you in Tondc before the missile hit. I know you, Clarke. Something was wrong. And then you and Lexa disappear and just happen to survive" Sawyer watched as Clarke looked everywhere but her eyes 

"Tell me you didn't know it was coming" Octavia said throwing an accusation in the air

It wasn't exactly random, it was a thought but Sawyer knew Clarke wouldn't do something like that. Clarke looked down and bit her lip before looking up "Sawyer-"

Sawyer's breath hitched in disbelief. She was right. Clarke knew. Sawyer glared at her in disgust. "You let all those people die!" jumped up and charged to her "You were gonna let me die" Clarke jumped up and moved in front of her. Octavia stood up following the angry girl

"Hey. I did it to save Bellamy. So that we could win this war. Don't you see that?" 

Sawyer looked away from her, she was sick of people using her 'weaknesses' against her

"If we'd evacuated Tondc, Mount Weather would've known that someone tipped us off. They would have found him" Clarke justified

"No. Bellamy would have never told you to do that. He would've found another way" Octavia said disagreeing, she knew Bellamy better than anyone and he would have never allowed his

"I couldn't take that risk" Clarke said shaking her head. Sawyer looked at her in disgust

"Did I miss something Clarke?" Sawyer asked making the girl confused "Because I don't remember who put you in charge! Last time I checked, I was the one who stepped up to the plate, I formed this alliance! I did everything while you stood back and watched so who do you think you are coming up here and deciding who's disposable and who isn't!" Sawyer said screaming in Clarke's face
