"Clarke, you can't go alone."

"Watch me."

Clarke walked towards the gate of the Camp, (which Clarke thought was oddly named 'Jaha') leaving her mother, Chancellor (Doctor?) Abby Griffin, stunned.

"Clarke." Abby yelled for her daughter.

"Clarke!"

"Clarke, I order you to come back, now!"

Clarke continued walking, ignoring her mother.

"Open the gates." Clarke snarled through gritted teeth. No one moved. "Now." The guards moved, pulling the metal gate open. Clarke continued walking. She knew she had everyone wrapped around her finger. Her mother may be the chancellor, but Clarke was the one in charge. She would make sure her mother knew it if the older Griffin even attempted to stop her daughter.

Clarke began her journey, rushing through the woods, a dagger sheathed to her thigh. She decided bringing a gun wasn't the best, considering she wanted to be on the grounders good side. Anya, was it? The grounder had explained to Clarke what the 'Mountain Men' did to them. How they used the same weapons as Skaikru. How the grounders would never side with someone who acted exactly like the people who took their blood. Who couldn't give two shits about anyone else but themselves.

A pistol on Clarke's hip certainly wouldn't do her any good. Especially with the Commander. Who even was the Commander? A he? A she? Anya spoke of the Commanders name, 'Lexa'. It made Clarke suspect that it was indeed a woman, but she wasn't going to assume. Initially Clarke thought Anya was the Commander. Surprisingly, and probably fortunately, the Commander was her second. It made things easier.

But Clarke knew, everything was far from easy.

Clarke had finally done it. She went to the grounders camp. Convinced them to let her see the Commander. Now all she had to do was follow a man through a tent. The man was tall, big. He had a long beard, his hair was braided.

Clarke inhaled and almost forgot to exhale as she started walking towards the entrance of the tent. This was it. She walked in, looking at the Commander. God she was beautiful, Clarke couldn't help but think. Green piercing eyes like the forest. Her jawline sharp, her skin glowing wherever the sun hit it.

Snap out of it, Griffin.

"You're the one who killed three hundred of my warriors."

The Commander abruptly spoke, twirling a dagger in her hand on her finger. The way she spoke was stern. Guarded. Powerful.

"You're the one who sent them to come kill us in the first place."

"You're a leader to your people, Clarke."

"You did this."

"CLARKE?!"

"Lexa-"
