Finn- I count 26

Murphy- I got 28. these people don't look like warriors, Finn. just kids, old people. there's nothing big enough to hold our friends. they could be underground

Finn looked at him as I sighed looking at them

Phoneix- I don't know about that, something feels off about this

they looked back into the scopes watching them again till Finn spoke

Finn- we wait till dark then we go in

Phoneix- we go in? Finn, we don't even know if our people are here yet

Finn- they're here. or they were when that Grounder took Clarke's watch

Murphy- what if we're too late, huh? I mean they're probably already dead *cuts off*

Finn grabs his shoulder getting ready to attack as I drop down gabbing his arm like I did once before

Phoneix- take it easy.

Finn lets go as do i so he can look back in the scope before looking at us

Finn- how much ammo do we have?

Murphy- you know, I think I liked you better as a peacemaker.

we did as he said and waited till dark, I held the torch as we ran into the Grounder's camp. Finn checked out one place before speaking

Finn- this is their food, Phoneix throw the torch in.

I looked at him but did as he said and threw it in, as it started to catch on fire we ran off. we hide behind these crates as Finn and Murphy held the guns while we watched

Murphy- distraction? not bad

Finn- let's go

we followed him as we hide behind this hammock thing, a grounder came running by and almost saw Murphy, but Finn grabbed him in time. we moved more in hiding behind this mental thing as we kept looking.

Guy- invaders! 

we looked at him as I quickly grabbed Murphy's gun hitting him in the head with it as he fell down.

Murphy- we need to run

Finn- we can't. they'll kill our people

Finn started to run in as he grabbed this guy off the ground

Murphy- they'll kill us

we followed behind Finn as I saw he was using the guy as a hostage while he shot at the sky before he held the gun to his head

Finn- who's in charge here?! I'll ask again

Murphy looked at Finn as I did too, he was going too far. this guy walked over as I kept my gun pointed at him while Murphy stood behind me holding onto my jacket

Guy- Our leader isn't here. you can deal with me

Finn- nobody has to get hurt. we just want our people back

Guy- we don't have your people

Finn- then you won't mind if we look around

Finn pushed the guy to the other dude as he pointed the gun at him now

Murphy- he's going to get us killed.

Phoneix- I know, stay behind me.

I felt Murphy look at me, but he didn't say anything. we were made to put all these villagers into this cage thing as I had to keep my gun pointed at them as Murphy stood by me while Finn went to go look around. I watched Finn run around and kick open doors as I shook my head. Murphy was looking at one of the villagers as i bite back the urge to roll my eyes. he moved to look at where Finn was so I turned by body only to hear one of them try to get up so I turned looking at them as the villager who was looking at Murphy was being held on the shoulder as the guy looked at us
