"Hey" I says to Monty as I sits next to him "what's wrong?" He asks, he knows how to read me, Jasper does as well

"I think I had a fight with Jasper" I says "I am listening" He says "I am just worried about him, he stormed at the grounders like it's nothing" I says before we hears him from behind us

"Jasper tell us the story again" Harper says "fear is only a problem if you let us stop you" he says "that's not even his line, Finn said that" Octavia appears

"Hi, nice to see you too" I says "Hi, Mary" she says with a sarcastic smile "when I saw the grounders in the tree it was like nothing I ever felt. You know, pure animal instinct took over" we hear Jasper says

"Pure animal instinct? More like pants-wetting panic" Octavia says "hey" I says, in a warning way "you don't know what you're made of until a moment when it's kill or to be killed" Jasper says

"There's just nothing between you and the tip of spear" he says "okay, this has to stop" Octavia says but Monty stops her

"Oh, come on. Let us have this" Monty say "us?" Octavia asks "look at him. My boy is a folk hero. They even gave us a bigger tent" Monty says before we hears clattering nearby

"Somebody hit the trip wire" someone says "is it a grounder?" Someone else says "down there" someone says before shooting his gun "I think I got him" he says

"What is it?" I asks as I walks over to Octavia, I couldn't believe it was actually him

"Murphy" I says sharing a look with Octavia. He has a lot of cuts, bruises, all over his body and he was shaking

I helped Derek and Monroe to bring him inside. "Go get Bellamy I'll watch over him" I says as Derek and Monroe rushes out

"Surprised to see me?" He asks "it's not the time, we have a lot to talk about but not right now" I says and he nods

"Where is he?" Bellamy asks as he walks towards Murphy "everyone but a Conor and Derek out" Bellamy orders

"I am staying" I says "what do you have to do with him?" Bellamy asks "I also brought him in" I says "she can stay" Clarke says

"He claims he was with the grounders" Conor says "we caught him trying to sneak into camp" Derek says

"I wasn't sneaking, I was running from the grounders" Murphy says "anyone see grounders?" Bellamy asks, Conor and Derek shakes their head

"Well, in that case-" Bellamy says pointing a gun at Murphy, I blocks him "wait!" I says "what's wrong with you?" Finn says lowering Bellamy's gun

"We knew that would happen if he returned" Bellamy says raising his gun back at Murphy "if he was with the grounders, he knows things that could help" Finn says

"Help us? We hanged him, we banished him, and now we're gonna kill him. Mary get the hell out of my way" Bellamy says as I was still blocking his way from Murphy

"Fuck no" I says "Finn is right" Clarke says sitting next to Murphy "like hell he is" Bellamy says

"Clarke, think about Charlotte" Bellamy says "I am thinking about her, but what happened to Charlotte was as much as our fault as his" Clarke says

"He's not lying, his fingernails were torn off. They tortured him" Clarke says "you and the grounders can compare notes" Finn says to Bellamy

"The grounders know we're at war, what did you tell them about us?" Bellamy asks Murphy "everything" Murphy hesitates before he answers

"Once he's better, we find out what he knows, then he's out of here" Clarke says "what if he refuses to leave? What do we do with him after?" Bellamy asks

"Then we kill him" Clarke says as she gets out of the drop ship, Bellamy follows her, Derek and Conor as well

"What the fuck?" I asks "what, you're not happy to see an old friend?" He asks "oh, so now we're friends" I says before I takes a look at him

"Come on, it's hard being angry at you when you look like that" I sighs "I am happy to see you're alive too" he says "you look like shit" I says "thank you" he laughs

"You're not my enemy" I says making him face me "I don't hate you, I just wanted to say that" I says

"But do you still trust me?" He asks "it'll take a little bit longer for me to trust you again" I says "that's fair" he says

"And I am sorry you've been through what you did" I says "yeah I wouldn't recommend them as a nail tech" he says making me laughs

"Like I said, we have a lot to talk about, but both of us should get rest first, we'll talk tomorrow" I says "goodnight" I says

"Goodnight, Mary" he says as I walks away

-

"Don't tell me you're still holding out for Octavia" I hears a conversation between Jasper and Monty "I gotta go" Jasper says

"Good morning for you guys too" I says, but they ignores me "Jasper, Octavia is not gonna happen, she likes grounders alive" Monty says "go float yourself, Monty" Jasper says

"Jasper, calm down" I says "stay out of it" Jasper says "I am just telling you the truth" Monty says "no, you're telling me your truth" Jasper says

"I am not like you anymore" he adds, in this moment I decided to keep myself out of this and not say anything "what the hell does that mean?" Monty asks "it means you're jealous, and people think I am cool and that upsets you" Jasper says

"No, I think you're cool. Only no one has to die for me to see it" Monty says "you know what? This is my tent, okay. Bellamy gave it to me, and if you have problems with that... maybe you should find somewhere else to sleep" Jasper says

"Wait, Jasper, hold on. You can't just kick Monty out" I says "Mary it's fine. Maybe I should" Monty says "then do it" Jasper says "I will" Monty says

"I told you he's been uneasy" I says as I was laughing "why are you laughing?" He asks, my laugh makes him laughing as well

"His new friends will dump him at some point and he'll run back to you, it's just funny to see how it all gets over his head" I says

"Very funny" he sarcastically says "Monty" I says as my laughs fades away "Mary, what's wrong?" He asks before I run from the tent and stars coughing blood

"What the hell?" He asks as blood starts dripping from my eyes "Clarke!" Monty yells before Clarke runs towards me "Monty get away from us" she says "whats going on?" He asks

"She also brought Murphy" she says as she run towards the drop ship, I follows her "Murphy, hey, look at me" she sits near him, he was coughing blood and had blood dripping from his eyes as well

"He's also sick" I says "I need you to tell me how you escaped from the grounders? What happened?" she asks "I don't know, I woke up, and they forgot to lock my cage. There was no one there, so I took off" he says

"They let you go" Clarke realises "Bellamy stay back" Clarke says as Bellamy walks into the drop ship, Clarke shakes her head

"What the hell is this?" Bellamy asks "biological warfare, you waited for the grounders to retaliate the bridge? This is it. Murphy is the weapon" Clarke says

"Is this your revenge? Help the grounders kill us?" Bellamy asks "I didn't know about this, I swear" Murphy says

"Stop lying. When are they coming?" Bellamy asks "he's not lying, he wouldn't let me touch him if he knew about this" I says

"Murphy, think. All right? What can you tell us that useful. Did you hear anything?" Clarke asks "they are vicious, cruel" Murphy says

"You wanna see vicious?" Bellamy asks "Bellamy, back the fuck up" I says "hey, don't. Whatever this thing is, it spread through contact" Clarke says as Bellamy takes a few steps closer to us

"Clarke?" Finn walks in" Finn, you shouldn't be in here. No one should" Clarke says "I heard you were sick" Finn says

"Clarke, what is this?" He asks "I don't know. It's some kind of hemorrhagic fever. We just need to contain it before-" she says before Conor starts coughing and grunting

"What the hell is happening to him?" Finn asks "I don't know" Clarke says, before he stops moving, Clarke checks his pulse "is he...?" Bellamy asks "he's dead" Clarke says

"Great, I am going to die" I says "you're not going to die, round up everyone who had contact with Murphy. Bring them here" Clarke orders Finn

"And everyone they had contact with?" Bellamy asks "well, we have to starts somewhere" Clarke says

"Connor, Mary, who was with you when you found him? Who carried him?" She asks "shit" I says as I widen my eyes "what is it?" Clarke asks

"The first one was Octavia" I says as Bellamy runs outside the drop ship

"Look, I swear I didn't know about this" Murphy says "I believe you" I says before Jasper enters the drop ship

"Mary" he says "Jasper, get the fuck out of here, I am not joking around" I says "Jasper, get out" Clarke says

"I just wanted to make sure you're okay" he says "I am fine, now get out. Clarke will let you know if something happens" he nods before he walks away

-

"What do I have to do to stop you from coming in here?" Clarke says as Finn carries her into the drop ship "get better" Finn says

"If he's not sick yet, he's probably immune, like me" Octavia says "Clarke" I rushes towards her "you don't look good, sit down" she tells me

"here. Come on, she can take mine" Murphy says as he stands up, offering Clarke the hammock he was lying on, Finn carries her to the hammock and lies her down

"What else did Lincoln tell you?" Finn asks as I sits next to Murphy "the virus doesn't last long" Octavia says

"It's true, I feel better" Murphy says "they need to stay hydrated" Clarke says "you need to stay hydrated" Finn says before Octavia gives Clarke water

"Okay, them too" she says after taking a sip "please" she says "it's okay, I'll do it. Just rest" Octavia says

"I'll help you" Murphy says as he stands up, I am about to stand up and help Octavia as well but Murphy stops me "not you, you're still not healthy enough you should rest" he says and I nods

"At this rate, when the grounders get here, there will be no one left to fight back" Murphy says "that's the point" Octavia says

"Then we slow them down" Finn says before he's about to walks away "wait, Finn" I says making him stops

"Is Jasper okay?" I asks "he's good, I gotta go" he says "yeah, okay" I says

"Hey Murphy" Octavia says as someone starts coughing "yeah?" He asks "Clarke says when that happens to roll him over" Octavia says

"I am on it" he says as he goes to take care of him before Bellamy enters the drop shit "Bell? No. Clear some space. Lay him down" Octavia orders

-

"Here" Murphy says as he offers Bellamy water "get the hell away from me" he moves Murphy's hand away "Bellamy, you're sick, okay? I am just trying to help" Murphy says

"Here" Murphy offers Bellamy a towel as blood drips from hid nose, Bellamy wipes the blood with his jacket instead and Murphy puts down the towel

"When I get better, if you're still here..." Bellamy says "hey, I got this one" Clarke tells Murphy before he sits next to me

"Don't mind him" I says "that's easy for you to say, you're one of them" he says "you can also be one of us, I can talk to Clarke maybe she'd give you a second chance" I says

"Even if she will, I will never be one of them. You saw how Bellamy just talked to me" he says "maybe you won't, but at least you'd survive" I says

"They will never let me back" he says "Clarke trusts me" I says "maybe Clarke do, but it's not enough. You really think that they give a shit about your opinion?" He asks

"Not Bellamy but-" I says but he cuts me off "Maybe Clarke does, but if it's you against Bellamy or anyone else, she doesn't" he says

"Well, what do you want me to do?" I asks "come with me" he says "what?" I asks "You don't think Finn and Jasper gonna pull it off" I hear Clarke says to Bellamy

"Pull what off? What is Jasper up to?" I asks "don't think about it" Clarke says "what do you mean? What is he doing?" I asks

"You can't worry about him right now, focus on getting better" she says "Clarke, tell me what's going on!" I says as I stands up

"He's on the bridge with Finn, they're planning on bombing the bridge before the grounders attacks" she explains as she stands up as well, facing me

"Why didn't you tell me?" I asks "you are sick, we didn't want you to focus on that" Bellamy says "he's my cousin! You don't get to keep that away from me!" I says

"I should be there with him" I shakes my head "you can't help them while you're sick" Clarke says "he can't handle it by himself he's terrifying of grounders" I starts to freak out

"Jasper is a big boy, he can handle himself" Bellamy says but I shakes my head "if something goes wrong I am ending both of you" I says look in at Bellamy and Clarke

"Mary-" Clarke tries to reach me "just leave me alone" I says, she nods before she goes back to Bellamy and I sits back next to Murphy

"Do you need another sign that they don't trust you?" Murphy asks "I can't just leave everything... I can't leave Jasper and Monty" I says

"Yeah, it was stupid anyway" he shakes his head "no, it's not like that-" I says but he cuts me off "just leave it" he say

"I should've been there with Jasper" I says "and what would you do? Cough blood on the grounders?" Murphy says

"shut up" I laughs "he'll be fine" he assures me "yeah, he has to" I says

Author note:

I love this chapter, I had so much fun writing it and it's too bad Murphy is a psychopath in the first season and he's going to ruin it
