"Ste klir" was the last thing Indra had said to her head hunter before she left for her mission. Keep an eye on Skaikru until Commander Anya gave her the okay to further investigate and go inside the camp. But until the commander has given her word, Amethyst is to stay hidden in the trees and go unnoticed.

Everything was in the women's favour until curious Octavia Blake found the women leaving food around for the 100 to eat and survive off of. Amethyst quickly became fond of the girl, she was kind hearted and had a need to learn. So when she wasn't doing her assigned job, Amethyst would give Octavia lessons on the earth. She would give the opportunity to learn what her teachers taught her.

"Amethyst!" the women shook her head upon hearing Octavia's voice. The brunette was walking on the ground looking around for the women who had promised to teach her about swords today. Amethyst grinned and jumped down from the tree she was in before greeting Octavia. "Heya Octavia kom Skaikru." Octavia turned around to see the women with olive skin and light brown hair. "It will not do you well to run through the forest screaming like a banshee, it will not always be me who comes to your aid," the women said handing Octavia a machete for practicing.

"Right, sorry," Octavia said nodding as she took the weapon being offered to her. So the two walked to a clearing that they used for training together. Amethyst didn't really like to use swords, she was best with a bow. But Octavia seemed to be drawn to the sharp weapon so Amethyst would take the time to teach her.

As Amethyst went over the basics of stance and procedures she felt eyes on her. "Lincoln," she called turning around and seeing the man standing in the opening of the clearing. "Must you always watch? Octavia needs to focus if she's going to learn," Amethyst said with her hands on her hips before giving her best friend a bright smile.

"Heda gon Soncha, forgive me," Lincoln said with a slight bow making Amethyst roll her eyes. "What did he call you? Doesn't Heda mean Commander?" Octavia asked curiously looking between the two grounders. Amethyst nodded her head with a smile. "You learn quick," she complimented. "Lincoln called me Commander of light, my official title," she explained to the confused girl.

"Commander of light?" Octavia questioned making the women nod her head. "A title gifted to me by Commander Anya herself," Amethyst informed her before she heard footsteps approaching the clearing. Before Lincoln or Amethyst had time to react there was a gun pointed to the two of them. "Bellamy no! They aren't doing anything wrong!" Octavia yelled throwing herself between her older brother and her new found friends. "Octavia their grounders! One of which has already escaped our camp once!" Bellamy shot back.

"It might be wise to consider us allies, Bellamy kom Skaikru," Amethyst said looking past the gun and into the man's brown eyes. "The last thing my friend and I plan to do is fight you," she informed him making him lower his gun slightly and glare at the grounder women.

"Octavia, we should go. We will finish this lesson another day, you are doing well," Amethyst said before taking the machete back from the girl as herself and Lincoln made their way back to their home.
