"What's wrong?" Darcy heard Madi ask Clarke who was packing up their things.
"We can't stay here" Clarke told her
"Why not?" Darcy asked
"Please don't question me right now" Clarke snapped "You should have never left that valley"
"We did that because you were in trouble" Darcy argued
Clarke stopped packing and moved to sit with the girls on the bed. "Listen to me. Niylah knows the truth about you" Clarke explained "and when Octavia finds out -"
"Octavia's your friend" Madi reminded
"She used to be, but six years is a long time. Octavia is not the girl from the stories I told you" Clarke told them "not anymore"
"You think she'll hurt us?" Madi questioned
"I don't know" Clarke admitted her voice cracking "but I do know that I can't risk anything bad happening to you two. You're my family" she paused "and family looks out for each other"
"Where will we go" Darcy asked
"Home when the transport ship gets back" Clarke said "no one cares about your blood there"
"Their criminals" Darcy said "they're no more safe than Octavia"
"They're offering hospitality" Clarke argued
"How do you think they're gonna feel when the people who murdered their people get on that ship" Darcy fought back
"This is not up for debate!" Clarke said firmly.
Darcy opened her mouth to say more but closed it.
"If anything happens to me you need to find my mom" Clarke ordered "you find Abby, ok? Do you understand?"
The girls nods and hugged.

They woke up again to the sound of a horn and people walking outside.
"Hey it's time" Clarke said before getting and out of the tent.
Madi continued to lay with eyes open while Darcy sat up.
"Come on" Darcy whispered pulling Madi up
"What where are we going" Madi whispered back
"I have a plan"
❀ ❀ ❀
They knocked on Octavia's door and waited until she told them to come in.
"is it done?" Octavia asked clearly expecting someone else
"Bloodreina" Darcy said making her turn around
"Madi? Darcy" Octavia realized "what are you doing here"
"We need to show you something"
❀ ❀ ❀
Octavia Darcy and Madi stood in the ring. Octavia held her knife and began to cut Madi's hand while speaking trigedasleng. Clarke came rushing in. "Madi! Darcy! Octavia get away from them"
"Clarke it's okay" Darcy explained calmly "we came to her"
Octavia cut her own hand "let her pass" she ordered
Clarke rushed down to the arena and Octavia continued to speak trigedasleng.
"What the hell are you doing" Clarke yelled grabbing both Madi and Darcy's cut hands
"It's ok. She knows everything" Madi explained.
"I understand why you lied Clarke" Octavia told her "you were just trying to protect them. But they no longer need your protection. She has mine. I know what it's like to be the girl under the floor. You don't have to be afraid anymore. Your training begins tomorrow." Octavia turned to Clarke "don't worry, your secret's safe with me"
❀ ❀ ❀
They were about to leave for training when Clarke stopped them. "Canteen"
"Clarke I think their gonna have water there" Madi sassed
"Take it anyway" Clarke insisted
"Clarke we're not babies anymore" Darcy reminded her
"I know which is why people are more likely to notice how special you are" Clarke told them "and that's why you're gonna suck today. You're not gonna stand out in any way. No one can think either of you would make a good commander, not Gaia and especially not Octavia "
"Clarke we understand" Darcy interrupted
"Once Echo gets that camera in the sky down we all get to go home to shallow valley" Clarke told them
"Great. Maybe when we fight the war there, we won't have to suck" Madi deadpanned
