Sky Princess

Chapter 22

Clarke POV

Clarke and Lexa were asleep in their bed the next morning. Lexa was on basically fully top of Clarke with her head in her neck. Clarke had her arms around Lexa and their legs were tangled.

"Aw, it is true." A voice said, waking her up. Clarke opened her eyes and looked around. She saw Luna standing in the tent. "Raven has a ton of stuff she wants to tell you guys." Lexa said, looking at Lexa. "Is she still asleep?" She felt Lexa smile into her neck.

"No." Clarke said. "We will be there in ten minutes or so."

"Okay." Luna said. "Also thank you Clarke for kissing Lexa because I don't have fifty dollars to pay Raven." Luna left the tent. Lexa and her both laughed. Lexa picked her head up and kissed her.

"Good morning." Lexa said, against Clarke's lips.

"Good morning." Lexa rolled off Clarke and stretched. Clarke sat up and moved hair out of her face. Lexa got out of bed. "You don't waste any time do you?" Clarke said.

"Nope." Lexa said, taking her shirt off. "Shit, it's cold." Lexa quickly grabbed a fresh long sleeve shirt and put it on. Clarke laughed. "You won't be laughing when you have to get changed." Clarke got up and out of the bed. They both got changed and went to see Raven.

Lexa pushed open the door and they walked in. Raven was holding a radio in one hand and in the other she had a mark that she was using to write on a clear board. There was a neon green map on the board.

"Bellamy, just focus on squeezing your cheeks and stop worrying about everything." Raven said, into the radio.

"Fine." Bellamy said. "Which way now? I'm at three turns." Raven was looking at the neon green map.

"The left." Raven said. "If you take that the whole way you should be there."

"I hate this."

Clarke and Lexa walked over to Raven. "Hey Clexa." Raven said. "I have a shit ton of stuff to tell you two. Right now, Bell is in the vents making his way to where they hold the acid fog."

"Okay." Clarke said.

"Also, Maya found a radio and gave it to Bellamy. He can now talk to us from anywhere." Raven said. "This is a map of the vents and shit." Raven pointed at the neon green map.

"I keep going straight Reyes?" Bellamy asked.

"Yeah." Raven said. "The Commander and Clarke are here."

"Okay." A few moments later, Bellamy got to the acid fog. "I'm in."

"What do you see?" Raven asked.

"Uh, there is a big ass tube that looks like it holds the fog. There is a control center looking thing." Bellamy said. "There are more tubes that have a flammable sign on them."

"Go over to the control center." Raven said. "Look for a pH scale."

"Okay. It has a scale but the rest. I don't know what it means. S-3, V-2, O-5, H-2-S-2-O-7? Can't I just blow this thing up?"

"No, you'll blow your face off."

"Level indicator?" Bellamy said.

"No." Raven said. "Do you see an actuator anywhere?"

"English Raven."

"Just keep reading." Raven sighed.

"Internal pressure sensor?"

"Nope."

"Setpoint and alarm?"

"Don't touch that one."
