Raven shouted as Finn stopped seizing. Anastasia had only her knowledge she learned from Abby to figure out how to help Finn, and she already knew how cloudy her memories from the Ark were, she didn't know what details she even remembers about working with Abby.
"Okay, help me get him on his side" Clarke said to Raven as she stood shocked, "Raven. There's is fluid in his lungs, and he could choke, Quick!" Raven and Clarke flipped him over to his side, "He's burning up" Clarke said feeling his body.
"Fluid in his lungs?" Raven questioned, "does that mean the knife hit something?"
"This isn't blood, this is something else" Clarke replied wiping the foaming liquid.
"I did— I did everything she told me too" Anastasia replied scared as she stepped back letting Clarke take control of the scene.
"I've seen this before, shortness of breath, fever, seizing" Clarke said, "It's poison" She looked back towards Anastasia.
"You sterilized everything, i watched you" Raven replied.
"Not everything" Clarke answered walking over to the knife that was inserted in his chest, "stay here" she said to Raven and Anastasia, but only Raven listened as Anastasia followed Clarke up the ladder.
"They locked the hatch doors" Octavia said as they reached the second level not able to go to the third. Clarke began banging on the doors as Octavia stepped on the ladder wanting to be included.
"Hey! Open this door!" Clarke screamed, continuously pounding on the door till it opened. Miller held his arm out over the the rest of the railing so Clarke couldn't get up leaving Anastasia suspended into between the second and third floor, "Get out of my way, Miller!" Clarke screamed, he didn't budge, "Now!" She lifted his hand as Clarke filed in along with Anastasia. Clarke ran towards the grounder holding up the knife, she looked at him dead in the eye. Anastasia noticed her looked worst than before when came up the first time. One of his eyes was swollen shut and his entire face was stained red. Anastasia looked over to Bellamy not believing that he did it. He stood watching Clarke, walk up to the grounder.
"What's on this?" Clarke screamed at him brandishing his knife. Anastasia watched Bellamy as he walked up to Clarke.
"What are you talking about?" He asked with his arms crossed over each other.
"He poisoned it the blade! All this time, you knew Finn was gonna die no matter what we did" She yelled, "what is it? An antidote?"
"Clarke, he doesn't understand you?" Octavia spoke.
"Vials" Bellamy said reaching out as Anastasia followed him back to Clarke, as she threw the knife across the room.
"You have to be stupid to have poison around this long without an antidote" Anastasia said as Clarke fumbled her way through it.
"Which one!" Clarke yelled, the grounder didn't say anything
"Answer the question!" Bellamy shouted.
"Show us" Anastasia asked, followed by Octavia pleading towards the grounder.
"Our friend is dying down there and you can stop that" Clarke said
"I'll get him to talk" Bellamy said pulling his fist back, Octavia jumped at him grabbing his fist
"Bellamy! No!" Octavia shouted pulling his back

"He wants Finn to die! Why can't you see that?" Bellamy yelled back at Octavia laying his fist down.
"Do you want him to live or not?" Bellamy turned to us.
"Ana, you even said it yourself, this is not who we are" Octavia said walking over to her, "he was protecting me, he was protecting us! He saved our lives" Octavia exclaimed greatly.
"We're talking about Finn's life" Bellamy contradicted.
"Do it" Clarke said calmly speaking up
"Wait, Clarke, what?" Anastasia questioned, turning to see Clarke's straight face as she stared at the grounder, "We can find another way, we don't need to do this" she tried reasoning, Anastasia watched as Octavia ran up to the grounder pleading.
"Just tell us!" Two guys pulled her back, while Bellamy used his makeshift knife to cut of a piece of unused belt, that was still attached to a seat, the rough metallic clip was apart of the slab of belt that he cut off .
"They're is no other way! Anastasia, even you should be able to see that" Clarke replied back with bitterness. Bellamy came back with a piece of a belt as he slithered around the grounder cutting off his shirt with the knife exposing his tatted skin.
"You're gonna show us the antidote, or wish you had" Bellamy said as he was cutting his shirt. Bellamy stood back as Clarke switched sides of the room. Bellamy pushed Anastasia back behind him roughly.
"Bellamy, No" Octavia begged, watching him get ready, "please, please"
Bellamy removed the belt from his shoulder and spin it around as it cracked against his skin, Anastasia couldn't bare to watch but the sound was enough. Bellamy got ready again this time it felt louder. When he released the whip from the grounders skin, Anastasia ran across the room and grabbed the vials out of the Clarke's hand. Placing a hand on Bellamy, telling him to back off, before sitting in front a the grounder spreading out the vials in front of him.
"Which one is the antidote?" She questioned looking at him. He looked down on her as she arranged the vials quickly looking up to him. Without giving it a thought, the grounders eyes gutted back up.
"Just tell them" Octavia said, but he didn't blink a eye. Bellamy came up behind Anastasia laying a hand on her shoulder squeezing it, she shook it off as she began messing with the vials on the ground.
"Ana" he uttered, grabbing her hand, helping her to her feet before sending her reluctantly to the side.
Bellamy continued hitting him with the belt one strike after another. This was torture that made them seem like barbarians, but the silent cries from the grounder made everything more uncomfortable. She was tears welling up in her eyes but she suppressed them, turning away when she knew the whip was coming around.
"Please stop! Octavia shouted, still being restrained by the guards, as she was forced to stay behind farther than the others.
"We're running out of time" Clarke said collapsing by the vials, "which one?" She asked
"Which one is it?" Anastasia questioned, "if you tell us , they'll stop, okay?" She said looking at him but he wouldn't make eye contact with her, "please tell us which is the antidote and they'll stop this" He said nothing. Bellamy burst out in a rage throwing the belt to the side.

"If this won't work" he began and then he grabbed out ripped off door handle, "maybe this will"
"Ana, you don't have to be here for this" he began pulling her up off the ground as she was sitting below the grounder, in the middle pleading with him,"neither do you Clarke"
"I'm not leaving until i get that antidote" Clarke replied crossing her arms over each other. Anastasia turned around as Bellamy went towards him with the door handle watching Octavia look at it in horror. The room fell silent as Raven came up the ladder
"What's taking so long?" She questioned, "he stopped breathing"
"What?" Both Anastasia and Clarke questioned worried, as Clarke started to head down and Anastasia after her.
"He started again, but next time, he might not" Raven clarified pulling Clarke back making Anastasia stop walking.
"He won't tell us anything" Clarke said to Raven as Bellamy took a breath facing away from the grounder.
"Wanna bet" Raven said walking pass Anastasia and the grounder towards blue wires as she ripped them out.
"What are you doing?" Bellamy questioned standing up and walking towards Raven
"Showing him something new" Raven stated pressing the two wires together as they sparked, she sparked them two more times before attacking both of them on his body, electrocuting him as the lights began to flicker on and off. Raven removed the wires, "Which one is it!" She screamed out, when he didn't answered she pressed the wires to him again. Anastasia heard him cry out in pain, she used to read how they would electrocute the bad people back on earth. The Ark believed that floating was a more dignified way to go, but seeing both of them, she couldn't tell the difference, the only thing that didn't match is why he wasn't dying, "he's all I have!" Raven cried out.
"No more!" Octavia shouted holding up the knife that stabbed Finn.
"He's letting Finn die!" Raven screamed back. Octavia took the knife and dragged it along her skin making a clean, deep cut.
"Octavia!" Anastasia shouted rushing to her.
"He won't let me die" Octavia stated shaking off Anastasia hand before walking towards the grounder.
Bellamy grabbed her, "Octavia, what the hell did.." he got cut off when she snap her hand back dropping in front of the grounder when Anastasia left the vials. Octavia began negotiating with the grounder hitting behind certain vials asking him. She reached the last one of the right, holding up to him receiving a nod.
"Good" Octavia said grabbing the antidote, handing it to Clarke as she sped off with Raven down to Finn. Anastasia grabbed a rag and gave it to Octavia for her to wrapped her wound in.
"Don't touch me!" Octavia yelled at Bellamy looking back at the ground before Anastasia took her down to get her looked at. After Finn got his, Octavia drank some, and the rest was being saved.
"Hello?, Clarke?" A static voice asked, "Clarke, can you hear me?"
"I'm here" Clarke replied
"Oh thank god Ana?" Abby asked
"I'm here too" Anastasia replied
"Good, the storm in passing, how's Finn doing?" Abby asked
"I think he'll be okay" Anastasia replied
"That's thanks to you, and Clarke, I'm proud of you guys, and I know you mother would be proud of you Anastasia" Abby said causing Anastasia to feel uncomfortable, without saying anything she got us and left, grabbing some water and cloths as she headed up stairs.
Everybody had cleared out of the drop ship now that they can go back outside, and most of the guys on Bellamy's payroll are cleaning up the damage the storm done. She opened the hatch lifting up the water and then herself noticing that Bellamy left Miller as guard.
"What are you doing here, princess?" He asked walking towards her.
"Leave me alone! Miller" she shouted pushing past him. She went the clothe applying wiping off the blood on his face gently. Noticing the real damage Bellamy did. His mouth was swollen, along with his eye, and his nose was beaten up really bad. She washed off the cloth aiming for his hand next, first pulling out the door handle that was in his hand. Which she took it out he immediately kept his hand clenched shut as his arms were held by chains.
"I need to clean this" Anastasia said, his hand still stay clenched.
"Here" she saw Octavia move closer, "let me try" she said bringing the cloth up to his hand, he opened his hand and let her clean it.
"Octavia, that thing with the knife was stupid" Anastasia recalled
"You sound like my brother" Octavia muttered, "it worked and now Finn is going to survive, i know you didn't play a part in this but you could've stopped him if you wanted too, he would have listened to you if you pleaded"
"Who are you talking about?" Anastasia questioned watching Octavia clean the wound
"My brother, Bellamy, if you even slightly pleaded for him to stop, he would have, but you didn't, and now he has to pay for it" she said pointing to the grounder.
"O, you do understand, Finn was dying, i tried to ration with Clarke but...."
"Clarke wasn't the one you needed to ration with, she wasn't the one with the belt, or the handle!" Octavia yelled.
"I'm sorry, i didn't know" Anastasia said walking away, she headed down the ladder as the drop ship doors were open. She walked out of them as everyone was already cleaning up. She walked out to see the damage the happened while they were inside killing someone.
"We'll get this cleaned up" Bellamy remarked walking up to her.
"I wish this was our only mess" she answered looking around.
"Ana" he grabbed her hand, gripping instead the door handle, "who we are and who we need to be to survive are very different things" he said looking in her eyes that are slightly irritated and red, the red dilutes the blue in her eyes making her eyes color seem darker.
"What are we going to do with him?" Anastasia questioned, "we can't kept him locked up forever"
"If we let him go, he'll be back" Bellamy said, "and not alone next time" she looked away and then back at him, "it's not easy being a leader, is it?" He said before walking off
