Grounders

Clarke's Group POV

"Where are we? Jasper asked as they all appeared in the middle of a dense forest.

"Who knows, but the grounders should be nearby," Bellamy said while taking out his sword and giving it a spin to test the balance.

"In this situation, we are chasing them, so they probably already know were here," Clarke said while looking through the dense trees trying to see if she could spot anything.

"Wait shh!" Monty shushed them making Bellamy annoyed

"What?" Bellamy asked

"Do you hear that?" Monty put his finger up telling them to try and listen

Swoo

Listening closely, they actually could hear a weird sound that sounded like rushing wind.

"What is tha-"

Shook!

A boomerang blade made of metal appeared out of nowhere and struck Jasper in the face cutting it in half and ending his life instantly.

Swoosh

They all felt themselves disappear before reappearing, but Jasper was holding his face while looking extremely pale.

"Jasper are you okay!" Monty ran up to Jasper to see if he was okay.

"I think so. It felt so real though." Jasper said with a shaky voice while trying to catch his breath.

"Luckily the VR is suppressing the memory, or you would probably be in shock," Clarke said while checking on Jasper.

"Guys over there!" Another boy who was in their group pointed to a person who was wearing a black bone mask and black clothes while carrying a spear and looking at them before running away.

"Grounders," Monty whispered but they all heard him.

"We can't let him get away!" Bellamy said and they all took off in a run toward the grounder who was running away from them.

"Where is he?" Clarke asked while looking around.

"Over there!" Jasper pointed to a big tree where someone could be seen running.

Swoosh

They all took off with extreme speed and just as Monty passed by the tree, he felt himself run into something before he heard a weird noise.

Swoosh

A huge spike appeared out of the ground and lodged itself into Monty's head instantly killing him.

"Fuck!" Monty yelled as they once again reappeared in the middle of the forest.

He didn't even feel his death as he died instantly but it was still scary.

"It was a trap and the grounder wanted us to follow him," Bellamy said

"Bellamy," Clarke whispered making Bellamy confused as he looked at her in question

"In the trees," Clarke whispered but everyone heard her, and they all looked above them.

"I don't see anything." Bellamy whispered

Clarke slowly took the bow off of her back before loading an arrow and drawing the bow back before she quickly spun around and aimed her bow into a tree just a few dozen feet from them.

Swoosh!

The arrow flew into the branches of trees and for a second she thought she missed before she saw a body fall from the tree and smack into the grass flooring of the forest.

"Holy shit! I didn't you were such a good shot princess." Bellamy said as they all looked at her in surprise and she just shrugged though on the inside she was smiling.

"Let's check it out." Bellamy ran over to the grounder and saw Clarke's arrow lodged directly in his eye socket.

"Damn." Monty felt himself grow a little nauseous, but he quickly got over it.

"That's one scout. Damon never told us how many there were." Bellamy said

"That's part of the exercise. Figuring out how many there are." Clarke said 

"They use the trees so make sure you keep an eye out," Bellamy said before they ran off to try and find their next scout.

—--------------------------------------------

Meanwhile in Octavia's group

"Rahh!" Octavia lunged at a grounder and thrust her sword forward, but the grounder sidestepped her attack easily before headbutting her in the nose breaking it in the process causing blood to explode all over her face.

"Ahh!" Octavia heard a scream and glanced over just in time to see a javelin strike Murphy in the heart sending his body flying into a tree three feet away.

"Well fuck!" Murphy said as he patted the nonexistent dust off his shoulder.

"Murphy this is the seventh time you died in a row. You are like the definition of a cockroach how come you are dying so much." Raven said with an annoyed scowl.

She couldn't believe she kept getting put in this guy's group.

"I'm a cockroach because I never put myself into dangerous confrontations let alone try and chase these killers through their home territory!" Murphy screamed before an arrow found itself imbedded into his throat making him choke on his blood before he once again found himself reset.

"Okay, they are just targeting me at this point." Murphy threw his hands up and looked around as if telling anyone watching to challenge him.

"Because they can't stand all that talking that you do," Raven remarked with a smirk at seeing Murphy getting mad.

"You two need to learn to be quiet or we're never going to complete this," Harper said with half amusement and half annoyance.

"She's got a point. These grounders can hear you guys a mile away." Octavia said while glancing around vigilantly.

"Alright I'll be quiet, promise." Murphy put his hands signaling his agreement.

Swoosh!

A grounder dropped from the tree above him before grabbing him and disappearing back into the trees.

"MMM" Murphy tried to scream but felt his throat get slit and the others watched as his body dropped back to the ground with a loud thunk.

"FUCK!!"
