"You don't have to thank me. I did what I've always done. Which is survive, by any means necessary." She paused, and allowed a small smile to form on her lips at his words. "You guys are my friends.. No, scratch that. You're all family.. Even Emori and Echo.." She said the last two names grudgingly. "And, something we've learned over the years is that you never screw over your family."<br/>
<br/>
She stopped speaking when he spoke. And when he finished, the blonde resumed talking. "It's good to see you again, too." When he mentioned tomorrow, she raised an eyebrow. "Since you mentioned tomorrow, I thought I'd let you know what I have planned. Tomorrow I'm going back to the bunker to try and work some more on getting the others out of there. I'm taking the rover, and leaving Jake and Madi here. But with that said, I'm going to ask one of the others to stay here with Jake and Madi."<br/>
<br/>
"This way if something happens. If Diyoza or her people find this place, they can get Jake and Madi the hell out of here, and we can track them down. I've taught Madi about leaving behind clues to where she's been that are familiar to only the two of us, if we ever get separated. I want Bradley, Monty, Emori, and Echo out there with us. Which leaves you, or Harper to stay back here with them. I won't fight it if you want to stay with them."<br/>
<br/>
"But you need to know that no matter what happens tomorrow, I'm getting Octavia and all of the others out of that damn bunker. And if Diyoza and her people get in my way, I'll kill them all and I won't have any regrets or lose any sleep over it." She cleared her throat and then nodded when Bellamy said that he'd introduce himself to Jake tomorrow. "It'd probably be better if you do it tomorrow night after we get back. I'm not sure how he's going to react to you."<br/>
<br/>
"And while Madi's good at calming him down, there are times when only I can calm him." She jumped as what sounded like a loud crash, came from far away. "Bellamy, none of you ever told me what happened to Raven and Murphy. Are they.. dead?" Part of the blonde wasn't sure how she felt about Murphy having possibly died. He had always had a bit of a strained relationship with everyone over the years. But if Raven was dead, she would definitely be upset.<br/>
<br/>
Because even after everything with Finn, they had managed to become good friends, and she didn't want to lose that. The blonde paused for a moment as she considered what to do. "Should we go and check that out, or just wait until morning?" Before the others had returned, she wouldn't have left Madi and Jake alone to go check. But now she wasn't alone, and she knew their friends would protect Jake and Madi, if they went to find out what was going on.<br/>
<br/>
"If Raven and Murphy are alive, that could even be them. They could have gotten here, and could need our help."<br/>
<br/>

Harper smiled as she watched Bradley. "Honestly, I don't care where we are. Just as long as we're together, and we're with our friends. It's so good to see Clarke, and to know that she managed to make it on her own for the last six years. I always knew that she was strong, but this showed me just how strong she is. As for it feeling weird to be back, I know what you mean. But it's a good kind of weird. First, the Ark was our home.. And then the ground became our home."<br/>
<br/>
"And then the Ark again, and now we're back here on earth. I'm just glad that we all managed to make it back. I'm just worried about us trying to get everyone out of the bunker now. I'm hoping once we get them all out, we can all be free to enjoy our lives and just live in peace." The blonde dropped down onto the bed beside her boyfriend, and cuddled into his side. "Cuddling with you in bed at night is my favorite part of the day, though you should know that I always manage to find an excuse to touch you."<br/>
<br/>
"Not in a sexual way, but just because touching you and knowing that you're there, it calms me."</span></span></span>
