They're alive, Amber! They need our help! Cloe, Patsy, Ryan, Jack..Dont u care about them anymore?!" *Amber has a few flashbacks like the one's before Eagle mt.** She quickly tells him in a panic, "If my people choose to help u...Its up to them1 Now please, Bray! Go!" He says then maybe the Amber he knew is dead, but did she ever love him?? She tells him to leave it. He asks how can i? He wants the truth. "THE TRUTH???!!!" Amber asks enraged, "Oh yeah u were always real good at that!! u and her!!" "What me and Ebony?!" He asks "Theres nothing going on! I thought u believed that!" "Oh I did!" she says painfully, "for one moment, one kiss, remember Bray? u were the 1 leaving, then Lex said his little piece. *They're last kiss on Eagle mt.* "I believed him Bray! and I believed you! and then there was the explosion..." **** Amber passes out in the smoke and falls to the floor, she hears Ebony calling her and Ebony rushes to Amber's aid. Ebony helps her out the fire. They rest on the side of the mountain. Amber asks, "Wheres Bray?! Is he ok??!!" Ebony says, "Bray? We are a sad case now arnt we?! After all this time u still dont know the truth about lover boy do u?" "What? Oh no! Dont even try it Ebony!" Amber says "Bray and I r together now, theres nothing else u can do to tear us apart!" Ebony says, "u dont get it do u babe? Its already been done" Amber shouts shes not listening to anymore of her lies. "Im not the liar here honey, Bray is!" Ebony says. Amber asks what shes talking about? Ebony says, "Well i was gonna spare u the gory details but since u insist well....Bray and I...WE HAD A BABY TOGETHER!!" Amber shouts, "NO I DONT BELIEVE U!" Ebony says, "We were an item long before the virus! Still no comprehendo? Maybe u should take a look at our family snapshot!" She shows Amber a picture of Bray holding a baby and Ebony's arm around his sholder. "Hes a liar and a cheat! More my type than y'rs dont u think?" Ebony says. Amber softly says to her, "How could he...?" Ebony says, "He'll break y'r heart every time girl! But it doesnt have to be like this, take y'r chance and be free, Amber!" "What y'r saying i should go??" Amber weeps. Ebony nods her head. "What about the others?!" Amber asks. "I'll take care of everything! They'll just think u died! It'll be better that way, go Amber...u know i'm right!" Amber looks at her and clasps her head and moans in pain and passes out. Ebony walks away leaving her lying there. *** "She took care of things alright! When i came to, i saw the grave with the ring on it and all of u gone.. Ebony was right, i had to start again, it was better that way!" Bray says, "Amber... this is crazy, Ebony and I.. we never.." "DONT LIE TO ME!!" Amber shouts, "I saw the proof, it doesnt matter now, i dont care.. its all in the past.." "Y'r wrong!" Bray says, "This whole time y've believed a lie, and somehow I'm gonn prove it to u, Amber!!" Bray confronts Ebony, "So we had a baby together did we?? It was u the whole time, u drove Amber out! U dug her grave and made us believe she was dead! I should have let the locos tear u into pieces when i had the chance!" Ebony denies all saying ither Amber is the liar or shes holusinating! The chosen dish out porrige. Alice pours hers out and sarcastically says, "Oops! little accident! Got anymore?!" Luke nods and gives her more. she throws it onto his boots. The guardian is angry and removes every1's food. Luke convinces the guardian if Trudy was released she could break the mall rats spirts, they're the key to the city. Lex is complaining about being stuck here and Tai-San being held prisioner by those 'maniacs'. He says as far as he could be conserned, Bray could have had a baby with Ebony, he wouldnt blame him either! Lex has always kinda fancied Ebony himself! Bray tells him nothing happened and they're here for re-enforcement. Lex says the Gaians would be useless in a fight. And because Bray barged in on 'Queen Eagle' over there they hate our guts!! Bray says they're all they've got! Lex shouts for every1 to hear, "THEY'RE JUST A BUNCH OF HIPPY FREAK LOSERS! Thy couldnt even fight their way outta this tree town!" Pride comes and says, "I know y'r upset Lex..." Lex shouts he knows nothing! and challenges Pride to a fight to prove him wrong. Pride agrees if its what Lex wants. The brawl begins between Lex and Pride. Pride wins by far. Lex wont give up. Pride tells Lex that he has proved him courage and must now leave it! Lex says never! Amber comes out and tells them its over and the meeting must start. Bray says Lex is an oxe head but may have helped their cause by losing. Lex says he did on purpose! Trudy comments that Salene doesnt look well. May says Trudy'll understand shes a mother herself, and tells trudy about Salenes pregnancy. Trudy has Salene removed from her work duties. Trudy says join us, convince Patsy and Cloe, they'll be safe then. One of ambers tribe members, Grey Owl, says what goes on outside has nothing to do with them, thats the way they have survived. He says now this tribe want to make their enemies ours! Amber looks uneasy and tells them to settle down and listen to what the mall rats have to say. Bray says the chosen may not be their enemy, yet. But they're not just a tribe, but an evil plaque, like the virus, and one day they'll come here. Pride says they've all heard the rumours and hes seen them! They'd be fools to ignore it! Bray says if they build a ressistance now with the free tribes then they have a chance, but if they wait they'll be alone and turned into slaves. All the things they love and respect will be absolved by the ways of the chosen! Dal says, "Please Amber! We were y'r family! u gotta help us!" Amber says she cant, its the whole tribes desision. Amber tells them all to think long and hard about this, its they're future, they'll vote tonight. and leaves. Tai-San helps the Mall Rats to conserve themselves from the guardian, he wants hatred, deny him what he wants. Ebony kisses the photo of her and Bray and the baby and tries to burn it but is caught by Bray who drags her to Amber. He asks Amber if this is he photo Ebony showed her? Amber says yes. He shouts at Ebony to tell her the truth but Ebony keeps silent. Bray tells amber they never had a baby together! She fooled her! Its Ebony's friends baby they visited them before the virus, he hardly knew her then! Amber asks if its true? Bray asks her if she thinks he'd abandon his own child?! Bray shouts at Ebony as he tears the photo, "U sad, stupid, twisted evil!" Ebony shouts "DONT!!" Bray asks her if she has any idea of the trouble shes caused? And he tells her shes ruined to peoples lives! Ebony says to Amber, "So u think i ruined y'r life? y dont u ask him about Danni?" and walks off. Bray asks Amber y she went? All she had to do was find him and ask him what really happened! Instead she let that monster ruin their lives, why Amber? She tells him to leave it, its done! He asks doesnt any of this bother her? She says shes a different person now, so is he! He shouts, "thats not true, LOOK at ME!! I'm the same guy! Amber says, "What do u want Bray? do u wanna just roll back the tape and pick up where we left off?" Bray says no. "What do u want then?!" she asks. He's silent. "You see?" she says, "it really doesnt matter anymore! Its dead and buried, just like i was! I've moved on, Bray! and by the sound of things, so have u!" she walks off. Later that night Ebony tells Lex shes leaving and asks him if he wants to come. "Ah!" Lex says "Its the eternal triangle again! it lose its edge?" "SHUT IT LEX!" she responds. Lex says they came for help. Ebony says from a bunch of eco-munchkins? Ebony asks if he wants to play Robin hood or see Tai-San again? He goes with her. Alice says they should jump the guards! She and Ryan can handle them! Ryan asks what if some dont get out? What'll they do to the 1's left? Trudy comes and tells them becoming a novest is the 1st step to becomming a chosen, join the ceremony tomorrow. Trudy says they meerly promise to open their minds to other ways of being! and it might help their food problem. Amber sit with Bray, "I understand Ebony and Lex have gone.. my tribe voted..they dont wanna join y'r fight" Bray says he's leaving in the morning. Amber thinks thats for the best. he says hes sorry for blaming her for what happened, he had no right. She says y've gotta let the past go..its the only way. He says shes glad she found some1. Amber is confused. "Pride, he wears y'r ring round his neck.." "oh..that" Amber says, "I'm glad u found some1, Danni, is it? where is she?" Bray tells Amber the chosen took her away nd hes hoping shes a prisioner somewhere but most likely to be dead. Amber says shes sorry, and will see he gets food or his journey and leaves. she looks back at him with a tear in her eye. Trudy tells the guardian they have May for certain, Salene almost certain, Ryan will do whatever Salene does and little Patsy's comming round again. The others will take a bit longer though. Bray and Dal say their goodbyes to the Gaians. There is a tear in Ambers eye. Dal says its crazy hes only just found her and losing her all over again. Amber says no hes not, whenever he wants come and they'll find him! Amber tells him to take care, Bray and Amber wish each other luck and depart with tears in their eyes. KC causes a diversion for Alice to grab a tin of spray paint and write 'FREEDOM' on the back of a chosen van. Amber places her feather bower on the bed and Pride walks in, he feels they're making a mistake by not supporting Bray and the others. Amber says hes exadurating. Pride says hes seen them, they're more evil than she can imagine, its not like her. Amber asks what he means? He says it means shes mixing up what happened in the past with what needs to be done now! It seems the guardian has a soft spot for tai-San. Ebony and Lex knock out a couple of chosen guards and steal their clothes with lex's , "Excuse me Mr Preacher man, is it true the guardian wears womens underwear in bed?" Salene, May, Patsy, and Ryan join the ceremony, Cloe refuses. May, Salene and Patsy swear to study the teachings of Zoot and never call themselves mall rats, etc. Ryan backs out shouting he will never abandon the Mall Rats!! Bray and Dal dont have much of a plan, Pride appears to them and says they've got alot to learn about making themselves invisible! All the gaians appear. Bray looks a bit disappointed and says, "Eagle? She didnt come, right?" Pride smiles and turns around and Amber comes with out the feather bower and a black jacket on. Bray is so happy and smiles saying this is wonderful! Amber says, "No, this is bussiness! we're here to fight a common enemy! no more and no less..." Bray looks to the ground a bit disappointed as the credits roll.....
