"Do you see it or don't you?" Raven asked frustrated as Clarke and Juniper stood in the engine of the dropship, trying to look for a single orange wire. Juniper sighed as she wiped the beads on sweat from her forehead, it was not looking good.

"No. It's a mess down here." Clarke sighed and Juniper groaned as she dropped her flashlight. She picked it up and looked around harder.

"It'll be orange. Look harder! You have to find the that connects the manual override to the electromagnet. It's not rocket science." Raven shouted and Juniper scoffed giggling. 

"It is rocket science, actually." Clarke answered and Raven chuckled to herself.

"Guess we finally found something you're not good at. I used to be picked first for everything. Earth skills, zero-g mech course. First... every time. So, how the hell did I end up here?" Raven asked inquisitive and Clarke looked up at Raven, Juniper kept on looking for the orange wire.

"Raven? I'd pick you first." Clarke promised.

"Of course you would. I'm awesome." Raven replied back as she hid the real emotion, gratefulness. Raven did not want to be hated by everyone, she just wanted love, like she never got as a child. Until she met Finn.

"Hey, I found it. Orange wire." Juniper gasped with glee as she pulled on the wire. 

"About time! Now follow that wire to the override panel." Raven instructed and Juniper gave Clarke a weary look as she inspected the wire, it was gone. It was worse looking than the split ends on Juniper's hair.

"It's fried. Totally useless. Tell me this isn't as bad as I think." Juniper pleaded as Raven just moaned.

"You know how to splice a wire?" Raven asked rhetorically, of course they did not know how to splice a wire. Who knows how to splice a wire?

"No." Clarke and Juniper replied in sync as they gave Raven a sympathetic look.

"Then it's worse. Uhh!" Raven groaned as she moved, her legs were getting worse. Hopefully now she could feel something in them.

"Hey, stop. Just talk me through it." Clarke instructed calmly before the radio went off.

"They're everywhere! Harper, get down! We need backup!" Jasper shouted frantically through the radio before they heard multiple explosions. "Raven, our mines actually worked!" Jasper laughed and Juniper grinned with joy, they were hopefully cutting down the army that they were going up against. An army that was trained to fight in combat, compared to a hundred criminals going down to Earth.

"Jasper can splice." Raven stated as the idea came to her head. Clarke grabbed the radio, Juniper looked at the radio and it reminded her of when Bellamy turned her in. How far they had come since then.

"Jasper, we need you in the dropship right now." Clarke instructed as she held the radio to her mouth.

"Negative. We can't give up the west woods." Bellamy answered through the radio and Juniper took the radio from Clarke.

"The west woods are mined, Bellamy. The grounders just figured that out. Jasper, get in here." Juniper shouted, she knew that she could get to Bellamy. She heard Bellamy sigh through the radio and smirked at Clarke.

"Jasper, go now." Bellamy stated before the radio cut off. Juniper smirked up at Raven.

"He'll be here soon." Juniper finished saying just as Jasper sprinted in to the drop ship, he jumped down the ladder and began his work. Juniper began pacing as she wiped for droplets of sweat off her forehead.

"I'm out of ammo! What is that? Requesting backup, now! Sterling. Sterling, do you copy?" Juniper heard Bellamy say on the radio in a panic and Juniper jumped for the radio. 

"I can do it." Juniper stated and Clarke shook her head.

"We need you down here." Clarke answered as Jasper dealt with the wires and Raven was on the verge of passing out.

"You need to be in that drop ship making the bombs, princess." Bellamy answered. "I see them. I saw... no, stand your gr... if they take the gate, we're all dead." Bellamy said to all the lines and Juniper gave Clarke a pleading look. 

"Clarke." Juniper whispered as Jasper kept on splicing the wire. She had Jasper, Juniper was practically doing nothing all ready. 

"Pull yourself together okay, this is life or death." Clarke stated strongly and Juniper nodded her head. Clarke was right, she needed to protect everyone and not just one. She did not want to fight, so she is not going to fight. "Bellamy is one of the bravest and strongest people I know, he's got this." Clarke promised and Juniper nodded her head as she looked up at Raven.

"I can't lose him." Juniper whispered and Clarke held onto Juniper's hand. 

"You won't." Clarke promised before she went back to work. "Hey, Raven, tell us again how this is gonna work." Clarke asked as she looked up at Raven, she was looking like hell. It was not looking good.

"Told you 5 times. Current flows to the electromagnet. That opens the poppet valve. Rockets fire." Raven explained weakly, Finn had went to give her medicine which will stop the blood from bleeding anymore internally. It was not looking good though. 

"Okay. Got the good wire ready to graft on. What's next?" Jasper asked and Juniper grinned, their plan was working and thank god because they did not have a lot of time left. "Raven? Raven!" Jasper shouted as Raven got unresponsive.

"- Is she..." Bellamy said on the radio before Clarke interrupted him. She was climbing up the ladder to get to Raven, check how bad she was.

"Not yet. But soon." Clarke answered as Juniper came up the ladder behind Clarke. She was more useful to Clarke than Jasper, Jasper had this under control. 

"They've broken through! There's hundreds of them! They're heading for the gate! Game over, man!" Rick shouted on the radio and Juniper ran over to get her spear, this was her time now.

"Finish it." Clarke instructed Jasper before she walked out of the dropship with Juniper. They watched the panic which was camp.

"There are too many! Everybody to dropship now!" Miller shouted as people began to run to the drop ship.

"No! We need more time. Gunners, stay at your posts." Juniper shouted as she gripped tighter onto her spear, she was just waiting for the Grounders.

"The rest of you, inside. Come on, move." Clarke insisted as her and Juniper began filing everyone else into the drop shop. 

"Clarke, I can fight." Juniper stated as she held onto her spear. Clarke shook her head as people filled in past them.

"Gunners have this." Clarke answered and Juniper nodded her head just as an explosion burst through the sky. Juniper turned to face Clarke. 

"Is that from the Ark?" Juniper asked as everybody stopped fighting, they were all looking up at the sky, Grounders too.

"That is the Ark." Clarke answered and Juniper grinned with delight at Clarke. This could mean that our parents were still alive. 

"Dad." Juniper smiled before she snapped back into reality and begin to file more people into the dropship. After they were done, Finn ran up to them with the medicine and The Grounders started attacking another people.

"What did you do?" Juniper asked as Finn ducked down behind a piece of scrap metal with Clarke and Juniper.

"I kicked the hornet's nest." Finn answered and Clarke looked at him shocked.

"You brought the reapers?" Clarke asked shocked and Juniper looked down. As Bellamy said, 'the enemy of my enemy, is my friend'. That's what Finn had done.

"I just bought us some time. How's Raven?" Finn asked and Clarke shook her head.

"She's not good. And the rockets aren't ready yet. Jasper's working on them now." Clarke answered and Finn furrowed his eyebrows.

"Jasper? What's plan B?" Finn asked confused and Juniper chuckled to herself, the camp were looking at being screwed.

"Jasper was plan B." Juniper answered as her youthful, cynical side was coming back out. The one that she had the moment Bellamy handed her over to her death bed. Soon enough, Jasper came running out to tell Clarke he had finished, that they were ready. Clarke nodded her head.

"All right, Jasper, get everybody, get inside now!" Clarke shouted as Juniper looked out for Bellamy, she just wanted to see his curly hair again, or his freckled face or even his smile that twinged when he tried to not laugh at one of Juniper's bad, dad jokes.

"Come on, Bellamy Blake. You promised." Juniper whispered to herself and the moment she looked down, Bellamy came creeping through one of the tunnels. The grounders had infiltrated the camp and was killing people.

"There he is!" Finn shouted and Juniper tried to run to him, to help him, but a Grounder got her in the leg, she groaned out in pain. But when she looked up the Grounder had a bullet in his head, and Miller was standing beside him.

"Thank you." Juniper groaned as Miller carried her back. As he did, Juniper watched Bellamy get beat up.

"Bellamy! He's killing him." Juniper shouted as she tried to grab people's guns. "Somebody give me a gun!" Juniper cried out and Miller shook her a little so she would stop. All that Juniper could see was Bellamy trying his best to fight off a Grounder.

"Don't be dumb. Stay here." Miller instructed and Juniper saw that Finn had run to help Bellamy, as Clarke screamed for Finn to stop. Clarke began to cry as Miller got closer to her and soon enough behind Clarke. Juniper just closed her eyes, she could not see Bellamy, it would hurt her too much.

"Clarke, you can't save everybody. Let's go! Let's go." Miller shouted at Clarke and Clarke shook her head as she watched Finn. But Clarke knew that the group came first, so she composed herself and then ran into the drop ship, Miller following behind her.

"Bellamy." Juniper cried out as she watched Clarke shut and lock the dropship door. There was no use, Juniper could not get to him, all she could pray was that he ran away from the flames. She did not want him to die in the ring of fire.

As the door almost close, Anya came sliding in. Juniper gasped as she ripped off the sleeve of her jumper and wrapped around the slash in her leg. Miller had placed her behind him, so he could protect her. Juniper was trying to stay strong, she was going to see Bellamy after this, she always did see Bellamy again.

"Jasper, now." Clarke shouted and Anya looked panicked as she held two swords up. Juniper just touched where her necklace once was and prayed that he was safe. The ring of fire never worked and everybody looked around worried. "Anya, you can't win." Clarke stated and Anya went to attack but Miller hit her in the head with his gun. Anya fell down to the ground.

"Kill her!" One of the boys shouted as a few people started to hit and kick Anya.

"Stop! She's already down." Clarke shouted as she tried to save Anya from people kicking and punching her. 

"Raven says current flows to the magnet. We just need a current." Jasper whispered to himself as he came up with the solution to starting the ring of fire. Juniper looked around and saw Raven, she was losing a lot of blood and getting seriously worse. Morbidly worse.

"No! Stop! We're not like that." Juniper shouted but she could not get up to help Clarke, her leg was too sore.

"Get back. Get back." Clarke instructed as she finally got people off of Anya.

"She deserves to die." Somebody shouted and Clarke shook her head.

"No! We are not grounders." Clarke stated and everybody nodded their heads just as a rumble began to happen.

"Listen to them." Juniper whispered as the Grounders began to shake the dropship, just as Jasper placed the two wires into his current and the ship started to shake. By the screams of Grounders, they grinned, they had won the war. Some people cheered but Clarke walked over to Juniper.

"How is your leg?" Clarke asked as Juniper tied the makeshift bandage tighter as she was losing a lot of blood.

"Fine." Juniper answered as Clarke got a piece of cloth on the floor and wrapped it around the wound to help stop the blood flow.

"You know I had to." Clarke stated as she held her head down long. Juniper hugged onto Clarke as she nodded her head.

"I know." Juniper whispered as they pulled out of the hug. Clarke wiped her tears before she stood up and looked at The Hundred in the dropship.

"Come on guys, we can leave now." Clarke said as she realised that because there was no screams, the fire would be out. There would just be ashes left.

"What about the Grounder?" Miller asked as he looked down on Anya. Clarke was too busy to answer because she was helping Juniper up.

"Tie her up, but do not hurt her." Juniper ordered as Clarke held onto her, helping her out of the dropship. The kids all looked at the skeletons as Anya walked out with Jasper. Her heart bleed with sadness as this could have been her. Juniper and Clarke were praying it was not Bellamy or Finn, that they got out alive.

"What the hell?" Jasper asked as canisters were thrown over the camp walls. Juniper looked down at one and got a cloud of red smoke in her face. She stumbled back coughing.

"Mountain men." Anya whispered as people began to drop to the ground, coughing. Red smoke was filing the camp and Juniper gave Clarke a worried look before she fell to the ground on her back. The smoke was making her freakishly weak.

"Please, don't." Juniper begged as she watched the figure point a gun to her head as she lost her breathe. As she turned her head, she saw the necklace that Bellamy had given her next to a skeleton. Parrasite does not burn in fire's, it cannot burn, but flesh can. Juniper cried out as she looked at the skeleton and all she could think about was- that skeleton was Bellamy.
