i stare at them confused. why are they with the people who got bellamy killed. "let them go" i say to cadogan. "they're not my prisoners julia"

"great. then heals the deal, i'll use the key to help you. but only after you let my people return to sanctum, all of them" 

"you're free to go with her" he says. i look at them, "we're not going anywhere. we've got a war to fight" echo says. my eyes widen, what the fuck.

echo walks out. "we're staying too sir" diyoza says walking out, octavia looks at me then follows her out of the room. i step forward.

i turn and point the gun at cadogan. "what did you do to them?" i ask, "we didn't do anything" his friend says. "they're simply committed to the cause, ready to serve mankind in the last war" 

"a moment that will soon be upon us now that you're here, with the help of the key" i roll my eyes and put the gun down walking closer to him. "so here's the new deal. we talk to our friends alone, i don't even want to see your men in the halls. you want my help? earn it"

"first disciple anders, have all nonessential personnel return to livsec" he says staring at me. "sir, i'm not sure if that's-" i turn and look at his friend. "yes, my shepard"

"good. your shepard stays here, the rest of you. out" i turn as no one moves, "now"

"in other words. get the flock out of here" miller says, "go. i'll be fine" cadogan says. the door shuts. and i look at them, "miller. put him against the wall"

"let's go" miller says, i walk closer to the group to talk. "i have questions" jordan starts off. "yea. get in line" clarke says, "echo, octavia, and diyoza are with them now?" raven says as miller rejoins the group. "why the hell do they think i have the flame in my head? that was clarke not me. for one day over 100 years ago" i state.

"m-cap, memory capture, a device that's able to pull select memories from ones mind. they put octavia in it"

"still doesn't understand why they think it's in me not clarke" i whisper. "the memory showed you putting the flame in your head"

i stare at them, "wait. if they still think it's in julia's head. then echo, octavia, and diyoza never told them it isn't meaning-" jordan starts. "they're not with them" eliza says.

"ok. eliza, jordan, gabriel you stay here. watch cadogan, and hold this room. if things go south we're gonna need a way out. let's go find out what the 3 most dangerous women on this or any planet are up to" i state.

...

clarke, raven, miller, and i walk into a room where octavia and diyoza are. octavia stands up and she hugs me. "i'm so sorry o"

"i know, so am i" she mumbles. i pull away and smile sadly. "no guards?" diyoza asks, i turn. "julia threatened not to help with the flam if they got in her way. thanks for playing those cards down by the way" raven says, "i thought it was good leverage, knowing you'd eventually show up" the room is silent. she's staring at miller. "we're glad you did" she walks over to miller wrapping her arms around him.

"just hug me back miller" she mumbles, he hugs her back and we hear footsteps. someone walks into the room and we put our guns up. "wait! she's not one of them" diyoza says. "julia. raven. clarke. miller. you described them well" the girl says. "this is hope, my daughter"

 i look at diyoza, "time dilation's a bitch. how'd you get out?"

"doesn't matter, right now we need to get to the stone room and get the hell out of bardo, we can get acquainted later. let's go"

we follow her out of the room. "hey. where's echo?" clarke asks. "she'll catch up" 

"she will huh?" hope doesn't respond. "hope" diyoza adds, "she's getting revenge for bellamy" octavia adds. "don't we all want that" i mumble. "talk" diyoza says. "all i know is that we have... 45 minutes to get you off this planet" hope states, "what happens in 45 minutes?" miller asks. "i don't know. really, levitt helped her with something and she wouldn't tell me because she knew you'd get it out of me and try and stop her"
