Before the sun had chance to rise both the fice Commander and Clarke had awoken.
They were stood waiting for Nyko to decide whether or not to allow Clarke to accompany them to meet the Skaikru. After Clarke's 'fall', Lexa has been worried she would not be able to ride safely.

Nyko look up from his notes all written in Trigedasleng so Clarke couldn't understand a word of it, she tried to study the paper but all she could make out was her name. 'Klork' It was spelt in the Trigedasleng way.

"she has suffered a injury Heda, however she should be fine to travel on horse back, I would suggest not battles untill the injury has heald" he say addressing his Commander and not even paying attention to Clarke who was stood there also.

"Very well" she say and nod her head to the healer and he leave both the women stood in the medical tent.

Lexa gaze turn to Clarke a small smile on her lips. "you can either travel besides me on Rosko or you can travel with me on Candles?" she says with a mysterious smirk on her face, her mind wondering to dirty places as she thought about riding with the blonde.

"I would prefer to ride with you for half the journey, I'm exhausted" Clarke says rubs her eyes through lake of sleep, she was awake most of the night worrying about the 100 and her mother. She also feared seeing the council members after all they were to once who's we're going to kill her, float her like they did her father.

Lexa's could instantly see the battle going on in Clarke's mind and nodded, after a quick glance around the tent to be sure no one was present she clear the space between them and engulfed Clarke into a hug, kissing her forehead gently.

"we must head out to make it to the camp before mid day" the Commander say pulling away from the blondes grip, with one last shared smile, they head to the horses tacked and wait for the journey a few warriors accompanying them, Anya, Gustas and the young warriors Axton, who was proving to be very good at his new job.

Lexa help Clarke up onto the big black horse before hoping up behind her, wrapping her arms around her to grab the reins.

Anya, Indra and Gustus share knowing looks as they watch the Commander with Clarke, the was she invites the contract of Clarke's back against her front and the way her hands rest on Clarke thighs.

They set off, Clarke and Lexa now comfortable with the way there riding.
The journey started in silent the only sound was the wild life around them.

Everything swirls around Clarke mind as she worries about going back, see her mum, the 100 after they all thought she was dead, Raven who has been made to keep her life a secret.
Now she was going to meeting them again.
As if sensing Clarke worry, the Commander place a comforting hamd on the blondes thigh and rubs small circles.

"it will all work out in the end" Lexa whisper reassurance in Clarke ear, instantly making her relax.

In no time, Clarke was fast asleep but they were growing close to the large ship where all the Skaikru had made their way to. Lexa didn't want to wake the peaceful blonde but it was what she had to day Clarke has to get onto Rosko who has been lead most of the way by the warrior assigned to watch her.

"Clarke" she whisper into the sleeping girls ear, after a few quite whisper she stirred and started to wake up.

"Yeah" she says sleepishly rubbing her eyes, as the horse is brought to a halt.

"where here" Lexa says and Clarke almost instantly sits up, look at the ship now only a few meters away from them.

After a quick change of horses they head to the camp.

Chaos arrups from the camp as they approach, the arm stood behide Clarke and Lexa must have seemed very intimateding, but they didn't care about that, their only concern was the safety of their Commander.

Clarke's POV

I can see so meny familiar faces, the first one I spot is my mother, tears fill my eyes, but I mange to blink them away, Lexa gives me a small smile as we approach.

"Clarke" my mum all but crys running towards me tears fall down her face, I dive forward as she engulfs me into a tight embrace, I can feel all eyes on me as a silent tear fall from my eye.

She pull away and cups my face with her hands, looking at me all over to look for any injuries, she brushes her thumb over some old bruise and the gash on forehead.

"I thought I lost you" she say, the pain evidence in her soft tone and tears that steam down her face, she look to Lexa whose watch us closely, her usually sotic expression but I can see awe in her eyes that most would miss.

"I'm alright, I survived" I say smiling back at Lexa, she nods her head at me and I look back to my mothers.

"where here to talk about peace between our two people" I say stepping away and standing next to Lexa, I look at the Chancellor pin that's attached to my mothers jacket.

"that's a rather big army to talk about peace" she say wiping her tears and looking over the army of about 400 or more warriors.

"they are here to keep the Commander safe" I say looking at Lexa.

"and who is their Commander?" she asks scanning over the group of people, her eyes instantly look at gustas as if she assumed the large grounder man was in charge.

"I" Lexa say stepping forward "I'm the Commander of the 12 clans, Leksa Kom Trikru" she say strongly, her usual commanding tone, which only makes my mother tense as she looks at her up and down, obviously surprised by here young age.

"I'm Abby Griffin, Chancellor of the Ark" she say extending her arm to shake Lexa hand. The Commander just look at the hand and doesn't take it.

"i see you've meet my daughter" she say smiling at me, I offer a small smile.

"yes Clarke Kom Trikru is a trusted member of my people" Lexa says proudly taking a step towards me.

I notice a familiar man approach, I instantly notice it Marcus Kane. He was one of the Council members that voted for me to be put to death, I tense and Lexa must have notice as she took a defensive step just in front of me as he approached.

"Abby the people grow anxious, what is happening" he say looking at me, but I notice Lexa give him a deadly glare and he looks away.

"we discussed peace" she says boldly.

Me and Lexa share a quick smile before everyone make there way to a large tent set up to discuss a peace treaty between our two people.
