Ghost town

"What happened?" Bellamy asks Octavia. Her and Monty has comes back. Monty walks inside, seem upset and Octavia looks at him with concern. We all follows him

"Everyone let's go" Sinclair says "we're all set" Monty says "all we have to do is connect her and activate the electromagnet" Sinclair says

Jasper enters the room and shares an intense look with Monty as we unties Raven. She fights us again "hold her still!" Sinclair says "Raven" Clarke says before Raven starts throwing her head on the bed over and over

"She's trying to kill herself" Bellamy says "Raven, stop!" I adds as I rushes to her, trying to hold her "stop it!" Octavia holds Raven's head

"Stop, and I'll give you this" Clarke raise the flame making Raven stop. Bellamy quickly puts the wristband on Raven

"No, you lied! You lied!" Raven screams before Octavia shushes her "No. No. Please, don't" Raven says

"The EMO will give me a brain damage. You know it will, please don't do this" Raven says "don't listen to her" Octavia says

"Please. You know it will! Sinclair, stop! Sinclair, no. No!" Raven yells "we've only got one shot at this. EMP will fry the wristband, too" Sinclair says

"Do it" Bellamy says "okay! Got it!" Sinclair says "go!" Monty says "no!" Raven yells "what's happening?" Jasper asks

"Nothing. We need more power the battery is not strong enough" Sinclair says "well, then get one that is" Clarke says

"The rover" Monty says as Raven grunts "Sinclair, hold her, hold her!" Bellamy says before he runs towards the rover with Monty, Sinclair replace Bellamy and holds Raven

"What was that?" I asks as we hears a gun shot "it's okay. Here they come. Switch" Jasper says "guys we have to move. Move!" Bellamy says "is she here?" I asks, Bellamy nods

"Got it" Sinclair says, Raven let out a scream before she stops moving. "She's breathing" Clarke says after she checks her pulse

"Raven?" I says "come on, Raven. Hey" Clarke says "hey" Octavia says "wake up!" Clarke says "please" I says

"She warned us" Jasper mutters to himself before he takes the flame "what are you doing?" Clarke asks "don't move" Jasper says

"Wait, Jasper" I says "no, you can't" Clarke says as Jasper grabs a pole "Alie did that to Raven, she's never gonna get this" he says "don't! Stop. It's Lexa" Clarke says making him stop

"Part of her is still in there. I saw them cut it out of her head. I am not..." Clarke says before she looks at me "what is it?" Bellamy says "both AIs were made by the same person" I says

"Both tap into human consciousness. They must work similarly, right?" Clarke adds before she looks at Sinclair "well there's probably only one pathway to consciousness, so it's possible, yeah" Sinclair says

"What does this have to do with anything?" Octavia asks "I've seen an AI get removed before. Help me get her on her side" Clarke says as we rushes to Raven

"Get that med kit from my bag" Clarke says, Monty gets her the kit and she grabs a medical knife out of it "wait, Clarke. We don't know it works the same" I says "it's okay" she says before she cuts Raven's back neck

"This has to work" Clarke says "what is that?" Bellamy ask as we notices some parts of something coming out with Raven's wound

"It must be whatever is left of the chip" Sinclair says before Raven starts coughing as she opens her eyes "Raven" I says "hey" Sinclair says

"Ow" Raven grunts "get her up, come on" Sinclair says "I never though I'd be so happy to see someone in pain" Octavia says making her laugh

"I couldn't do what you did" I hear Jasper says to Clarke as he hands her the flame "I could have saved my mom" Monty says

"Hey" Jasper tries to reach for Monty's shoulder "get the hell away from me" Monty snaps before he storms out of the room

"Alie knows we're here. We gotta move" Bellamy says as we all starts packing to leave

"Are you really okay?" Jasper asks Raven as we carry her to the truck "I feel really sorry for all the crap I said" she looks at Jasper

"And for punching me in the face, right?" Jasper says "No, you definitely deserved that" she laughs "watch out. Here, step on it" Sinclair helps Raven on the truck

"Hey, there's one thing I don't understand" Clarke walks towards us with Bellamy "why did Alie want you to kill yourself?" Clarke asks

"Because I know why she wants a second AI" Raven says "why?" Bellamy asks "it's the only thing that can stop her" Raven says "then let's stop her" Octavia says making all of us look at her

"We survive together" she looks at Monty. Monty nods before we all gets into the truck and drives away

Murphy's pov

"It's Heda" I hear a woman says as I walks with Ontari in Polis

"Hey, stranger" I hear a whisper making me turn around seeing Emori "care for a bite?" She says. She had a little stand with baked rats

"Emori, what the hell are you doing here?" I asks "cooking rats. The old vendor was brutally attacked on the road. It's dangerous out there" she says

"Yeah, clearly it is" I says "I have been looking for you ever since you were taken. And then I hear rumours of the new Heda's handsome Skaikru flame keeper. I knew it had to be you. I taught you well" she says

"She's one hell of a make, John. I want in" she adds "fresh caught today, sir" Emori says as Ontari walks towards us

"Uh, I'd love one. Thank you" Emori hands me a rat, I eat it so Ontari won't be suspicious of Emori "Mmm. It's the best... it's the best eat I've ever had" I says

"Do not fall behind again" Ontari says before she walks away, I spits the rat out of my mouth before I turns to Emori "keep following this street. Alley on the left. Black door halfway in, I'll get away as soon as I can" I tells Emori before I follows Ontari

Mary's pov

"Becca's journal is amazing. At 26, she found a pathway to access a human mind. That same year, she had to lock up Alie because her answer for what was wrong with the world was too many people" Raven says. I remember Murphy telling me something about a video that was playing in the bunker where he staid at, he told me he heard this conversation between Becca and Alie

"She was 27 when it launched the bombs" Raven adds "what did she write about the flame?" Clarke asks "Alie 2.0. She saw it as way to stone for her sins. She designed it to not just access a human mind, but to merge with one. It could never wipe us out, because it would be one of us"

"She would put it in herself first. Altered her genes so her body wood to reject the implant" Raven explains "Bekka Pramheda, first commander" I says

"The gene therapy made her blood black, didn't it?" Clarke says "yeah" Raven says "how did you know that?" Octavia asks

"Nightblood. That's where it came from. Somehow it became hereditary. Luna has it. That's why we have to find her. If she can access Alie 2-" Clarke starts

"She can tell us how to stop Alie 1" Octavia adds "Bekka Pramheda gets her second shot at atonement" Sinclair says

"Get back to the mind pathway. If Alie uses it to upload our minds to the city of light, then there's a chance my mom is still alive" Monty says

"That depends on your definition of alive" Raven says "Monty, I don't think we can save her. I am sorry" I says "eyes sharp. Weapons hot. We're almost home" Bellamy says

"Miller, come in" Bellamy says to the radio but gets no answer "Harper, you there? You're rude us two minutes out" Bellamy asks "good starts" Jasper says

"We left two days ago. Why haven't they fix the gate?" Clarke asks. Me, her, Bellamy, Sinclair and Octavia got out of the car while Jasper was aiming from the truck while Monty was driving with Raven next to him "maybe because there's no one here to fix it" Jasper says

"It's like a ghost town" Octavia says "it feels like a horror movie, and I've never been a fan of horror movies. Jasper do you remember when we were kids you showed me the shining and I had nightmares for like a month? I think I threw up" I says

"Mary, shut up" Jasper says "I am sorry, I am nerves" I says "calm down Mary" Octavia says "Miller, where the hell are you? I don't like this" Bellamy says

"Maybe they got chipped" Jasper says "if they got chipped, they'd have been waiting for us at the cave. Maybe they saw the open gate and went in for Lincoln's book" Bellamy says

"Maybe you should stop saying maybe" Octavia says "if they are chipped, Alie already knows we're coming" Clarke says. We all stops and I notices some blood on the ground, Octavia and Bellamy notices too. I figured it was Lincoln's from the look on Octavia's face.

"Let's get his book and get the hell out of here before Mary throws up" Octavia says "that's a plan I can support" Jasper says "guys it's not funny" I groans

"Close it up, turn the Rover around. We may need to get outta here quickly" Bellamy says as we enters the Ark

"It's like they just got up and walked away" Clarke says as we sees some open cards and games

"We're in and out. Pack as much gear as you can into the rover" Bellamy says "I'll get the map" Octavia says

"I'll, uh, go with her. No one should be alone" Jasper says "you don't wanna load gear, huh?" Sinclair says "not even a little" Jasper walks after Octavia

"What's the rush? They won't be coming back" Raven says "how do you know?" Clarke asks "Alie's mission is to chip everyone. It wouldn't make sense to return to a place she already took" Raven says

"It might make sense if there was someone in that place you, who could tell us stuff like that" Sinclair says "Good point. Let's load her" Raven says

"Hey, are you okay?" Raven asks zoning me in from looking around "yeah, I am fine" I says "what are you looking for?" She asks

"I just thought Murphy will be back by now, I don't know... I kinda hopes he was here" I says "it it about what I said?" She asks

"No! No, not at all" I quickly says, it wasn't completely true. The things Alie said made me think he didn't want to come back, not to me. But I didn't want Raven to feel bad because it wasn't her that said all those things

"I am sorry about that" she says "it wasn't you, it was Alie" I says "you know, there some stuff I said I didn't even know about, I am sorry" she says, probably referring to my dad

"Hey, Raven. I don't wanna talk about this" I says "well, I am also sorry for the things I've said before I got chipped, that you're a bad friend and all" she says

"It's okay, I forgot about it already" I says "I know you haven't. I know you're hard on yourself and I know you're sensitive, I am sorry" she says

"It's fine, Raven. So much happened since, don't let this concern you" I says "you are a good friend, you know it right? You're a good person" she says

"Raven, I was never perfect. I know that. But it's not your fault that I think this way" I says "but I don't want you to feel this way" she says

"I did even before I knew you, it doesn't matter" I says "it is for me. Look, you're a good friend, you do your best for us, I didn't though I'd want to be friends with you but you turned out to be an amazing friend, and I appreciate you" she says

"Your going to make me cry" I says before I pulls her into a hug "I am happy we're friends too" I smiles at her

Murphy's pov

I was waiting for Emori at the point we agreed to meet, I've been waiting for a while and I got scared she wouldn't show up

I need some normal human being to interact with after my staying with Ontari. I needed to get out of there even for a little while.

Then suddenly I felt someone grabbing me, I flinch but when I turn my gaze I sees Emori hugging me from the back

"Ready to prove how you missed me?" She says making me chuckle. I takes her to the flame keeper's room where she notices somethings

"I recognise some of this tech" she says "let me guess. The flame keeper was one of your customers?" I says as she looks around the painting

"What is this?" She asks as she looks at the painting of Bekka "they, uh, call her Bekka Peamheda. She was the first commander" I explains

"Bekka" Emori repeats "oh, come on. Don't tell me you actually believe this religion crap" I says. Emori stay quite as she scans the room
