Survival of the Fittest.

Tegan sighed, dropping the subject. She knew that adults could be stubborn, but not like this. "You're right." she agrees, "They'll just have to find out for themselves." She listens to Aria's plan, nodding her head while she speaks. "Sounds good," She whispers, "I'm in."

---

Bellamy watches around them and subtly moves towards Finn. He briefly whispers the plan to him, waiting for Finn to agree. He notices that Finn is hesitant but nonetheless, he agrees. Bellamy nods, falling to the back.

Murphy listened to the plan quietly but shrugged, figuring that it would serve the adults right. "Fine by me," he decided casually before he focused his attention ahead. "If it comes to that, Tegan, we'll have to be careful," he told her quietly.

---

Aria nodded once she heard their agreement before she picked up her pace to walk near Bellamy again. She hoped it wouldn't come to that, that they could get to wherever they were going without a problem, but at least they'd be prepared.

Tegan turns her head towards Murphy, lifting a brow curiously. "What do you mean?" She was willing to listen to anything he had to say, as he had spent the most time with the Grounder's and would certainly know the most.

---

"So?" Bellamy asks quietly, not bother to look towards her. "I got Finn to agree. He's a little nervous about the Raven part, but he'll do anything to keep her safe." His eyes wander to the trees, wondering if any remaining Grounder's hid, waiting for their chance to attack.

"Because, a few may attack while the others hide, waiting for runners or they might try to herd us together," Murphy told her quietly. "If it comes to us running, we'll need to grab our guns back from the adults so that we can fight back if we have to when we run."

---

"They're in," Aria told him quietly, her attention focused ahead as they continued walking. "Not that it's surprising. None of us trust the adults right now and the adults are idiots who think they know what they're up against despite our warnings."

Tegan nods at his words, agreeing with them instantly. "That's a good plan." She whispers, "I was thinking about taking the guns as well, but I didn't know if that would work."

---

"I'm glad their in." Bellamy says softly, "I figured everyone would agree. These adults have no idea what their doing. We've been here longer, so we know better than they do."

"They'll be too busy trying to fight the Grounders to stop us," Murphy pointed out casually. And, even if that wasn't the case, they wouldn't exactly be able to stop them when they might realize that they need the extra gunpower, anyways.

---

"None of us want to die because adults are too stubborn to understand that they're not prepared for a Grounder attack," Aria added quietly before she let out a sigh. It was really frustrating that the adults hadn't listened to them in the first place.

"Wow, that was a brilliant observation Murphy." She whispers to him, "Good work." She turned her attention back to her surroundings, listening for an rustles in the tree or soft whispers.

---

"Exactly." Bellamy finished, keeping an eye on the adults ahead of them. They seemed to be brash and had no sense of thought. He hoped that they didn't get attacked by Grounder's because these adults would certainly die.

Murphy wasn't sure if she was being sarcastic or genuine, but he nodded either way. "Better safe than sorry," he mentioned after a moment before he glanced around for a moment. So far, so good, it seemed, which was a relief.

---

Aria nodded but fell silent as she focused on the noises and sights around them. It seemed the others were doing the same, which was better, she supposed. It meant they'd be more prepared - or, she hoped, anyways.

Tegan slowed her walk as the adults began to talk amongst themselves. They were getting rather loud. Tegan huffed, but said nothing to them. She knew they wouldn't listen.

---

"Can you keep it down?" Bellamy harshly whispered to the adults. "If you don't shut up you're going to surely get us all killed." The adults grumbled, deciding not to listen when one of the adults silenced them all.

Murphy frowned deeply when he heard the adults talking so much. Did they really want to increase the likelihood of them all getting killed? Hadn't they been warned enough about the dangers here? Idiots.

---

Aria sighed quietly as they walked but tried to ignore the adults. At this rate, they really were going to attract the Grounders' attention. It was a good thing that she and the others had a plan already.

Tegan felt very annoyed with the adults and they're lack of carefulness. "We're here!" One of the adults, a female one, announced as they pushed through the bush and towards what appeared to a piece of the Ark. Shock spread like wildfire through Tegan. When had this happened? When did they get here? And where was the rest of the Ark?

---

Bellamy felt shocked. Thousands of questions went through his head. He walked forward, eyes wide and mouth agape, wondering how the adults had managed to survive a fall like that.

Murphy couldn't help but to stare at the site for a long moment, more than a little surprised by it. Where the hell had they been when they had needed their help? How did they get here?

---

Aria paused in her steps, silently wondering which station this was. Was it the station her parents had been on? Were they here? Were they alive?

"Come on now," An adult called, "We need Abby to check you all over." Tegan rose an eyebrow, but chose not to say anything. "Then Kane will want to talk to you." Another said.

---

"Raven needs medical attention first." Bellamy says, raising an eyebrow. "We can wait." He felt his anger flaring slightly. "We know that," The same adult says, "You'll be checked out afterwards." Bellamy huffs, crossing his arms and looks away.

Murphy rolled his eyes slightly at the attitude these adults had. How stupid could they be? The group as a whole had been through more than this and they'd been in worse conditions. Well, except for the state Raven was in. "We don't really need to be looked over," he said bluntly.

---

"While we wait, wouldn't it be better if we go ahead and talk to Kane?" Aria asked with a sigh, though she mostly just wanted to get everything over with so she could go search for her parents. "It would save time."

"Yeah, let's just talk to Kane already." Tegan says, "No one other than Raven needs to see a Medic right now." She watches the adults briefly talk with each other before turning back to the teens and Bellamy. "We agree." Finally, it seemed that the adults were starting to make sense.

---

Bellamy nodded, glad that the adults had finally started to listen to them. "So lead the way then." He says, uncrossing his arms. The adults nodded, most going to escort Raven to the medic, while the rest stayed and took the character's to visit Kane inside the crashed ship.

Murphy didn't really like the idea of being here at all, but at least it might be safer than having to deal with Grounders. Following the others, it wasn't long before they came across Kane. "So, what? Is Kane the Chancellor now?" he asked with a snort.
"What's going on here?" Kane asked as he took in the sight of the kids.

---

Aria couldn't help but to look around the entire time that they walked, hoping to spot her parents. She couldn't see them, though, and focused her attention on Kane. "Well, your friends here decided to cause a scene," she mentioned casually.

Kane looked over to the guards who held stood staidly behind the kids. He nodded at them and they moved away, exiting the room without a word. Kane huffs before turning back to the kids. "Well, lets move passed that for now. I'm glad to see that some of you have survived well enough," Kane says, eyeing the group. "Although, we thought more of you would survive." Tegan rolls her eyes at Kane. Who decided to let Kane run things? "The majority of us have survived, we just don't know where they are." Tegan says, setting her face with a bored expression.

---

"We need to find them," Bellamy adds. "The Grounders could have them and they could be dying by the minute." Kane sighed, turning his attention to Bellamy. "Do you have any idea where exactly the Grounders are located." Bellamy swallowed thickly, pulling his gaze away from Kane. With a rough voice, he answered. "No."
