The Skaiprisa

Chapter 17

Still after a week Clarke couldn't rise to her feet her body still far to week and her multiple injuries causing her grave pain every-time she moved.
Most of the Maunon are dead the few that live where given a choice, live among the grounders or die, few choose to die but the other took the bone marrow treatment. Those from the mountains joined skaikru as the commander ordered that the mountains only be used for medical supplies and nothing else.

Cage Wallace had vanished with him already having the treatment along with a few of his most trusted guard. He made a run for it, like the cowered he is.

Even as Clarke sleeps she whimper and cry in pain, Lexa walks in the tent to find Clarke one again in a mess sobbing from the intense pain and brutality of her nightmares.
Quickly crossing the tent she climbs into the bed, pulling Clarke closer, her head now resting in the commander breast as she sobs.

"It's going to be alright Clarke I'm here, I'm not going anywhere" Lexa try's to sooth her, she just continues to cry into her chest holding her tight afraid that if she lets go she'll be back in the tortures metal room. Lexa rubs circles into the blonde back the only place on her body that has minimal injury's to it.

"I'm sorry" Clarke broken voice makes Lexa heart ache, kissing the blondes head she shush her in a calming way.

"Never apologise" she says,l and they continue to lay there just holding each other, even after Clarke had falls asleep.

After a long while Lexa gently placed Clarke back onto the bed, pulling the furs up to keep her warm as the cold biter air of the night stated to set in.

The sound of tent flap caught Lexa attention instantly, he whole body whipping round only to relax once again as she see Anya approach the table.

"What is it" Lexa could tell instantly that something was playing on Anya's mind. The warriors just looks up at her Heda with a sad smile.

"I'm afraid you've been requested in polis, now the battle has done you are needed."even Anya knows Lexa wouldn't want to leave Clarke not in her vulnerable state. Both there eyes settled on the sleeping blonde as soft whimper escape her lips.

"I can't leave her..." Lexa trails off as Clarke's whimper grow louder, she raised from her seat at the table and sits on the bed, she placed her hand on the blonde side rubbing soothing as the whimper quietened.

"Then she will have to come with us, I will care for her when you are busy and do not need me, plus the maids in polis are great, Clarke will be safe there..." something else was playing on the warriors mind. "The only problem will be Titus, I will take care of him and if he try's to hurt her, I will kill him for you"she said strongly.

Thought Anya wouldn't say it allowed she was happy Lexa had found Clarke and she really did care for Clarke, the clumsy and un focused girl had grown on her.

"She cannot travel on horse back in her condition" Lexa all but whispered, brushing a strand of hair away from her sleeping lovers face.

"Then we will just have to get a cart ready from Ton Dc, she will make it to Polis, she will be safe there" Anya say placing a hand on Lexa shoulder. "I will send a rider to get the cart and we can set of at first light"

Lexa simply nods in agreement and then Anya left to send a rider of to Ton Dc.
