When Clarke had returned to her room she found that Octavia wasn't there. Octavia wouldn't actually come back until an hour after Clarke had. Clarke was ok with that though because she needed time to process what had happened with the hooded commander past the grassland gates.

None of it was making sense quite yet and after thinking about the voice in her head and her craving to locate the source for far too long Clarke had decided it was a waste of energy. She was about ready to settle down for bed when Octavia entered their room.

"Octavia?"

"Clarkey!" Octavia exclaimed with a massive grin plastered across her face.

"Octavia have you been drinking?"

"Yessss Capin Griffin I Sure havvve." Octavia slurred, falling into her bed.

Clarke moved from her own bed to help Octavia get settled, helping her take off her shoes and jacket so she could get comfortable while Octavia drunkenly recapped her night.

"You would never believe what happened Clarke. It was insane!!!"

"Tell me all about it." Clarke chuckled, taking a seat at the very edge of Octavia's bed as she tried to get comfortable under the blankets.

"I was uh...I was with 2 people. Wait no 3! Hahaha 3 I was with 3 Clarke. It was me, Lincoln, Raven, Raven, Lincoln and me. OH YEAH and John."

"John Murphy?"

"Yes Clarke! He and Raven were flirty and Lincoln used his big stronnng arms and pop fizz bubbles and drinking drinking drinking it was AMAZING."

Clarke chuckled to herself again, enjoying seeing drunk Octavia for the first time. It was quite humorous to her.

"I thought you didn't like Raven and Murphy that much."

"Nahhhh Clarke I was just wrong. See sometimes I'm not right and I'm wrong and not right but wrong."

"Well I'm glad you liked spending time with Lincoln, Raven, and Murphy."

"Clarke! When I wake up in the morning please tell me what happened now and also DO NOT tell Bell I was drunk or with Lincoln please ok? Good night Clarke... nighty night."

Clarke laughed to herself again and went to go back to her own bed. "Goodnight Octavia." Clarke whispered, noting Octavia was already out just from the time it took to walk from one bed to the other.

Clarke closed her eyes finally ready for bed and didn't wake up again until morning.

Clarke had fully anticipated waking up to delightful rays of sunshine that shone through her and Octavia's bedroom window or maybe the amazing scents of warm Theed foods prepared and ready for the Skai Crew guests. Unfortunately Clarke's wake-up was far from what she had been wishing for. Clarke and Octavia both woke up to the loud blaring of sirens and constant yelling through the palace and outside areas.

Clarke noticed Octavia groaning as she attempted to cover her entire head with pillows, probably suffering from a really bad headache. Clarke didn't have time to wait around though and threw her shoes on, quickly leaving to go find Lincoln. Conveniently for Clarke, she located the kind ambassador after only about a minute of searching, standing in front of the Theed War Room.

"Oh excellent Clarke. I knew you'd know to come here. Anya is waiting inside for you. Is there anyone you want with you? This would be the appropriate meeting to bring a second in command or head guard too if you'd like.

"I'm afraid Octavia had to take care of a personal matter and Bellamy is probably not around but-"

"Did someone say my name?" Bellamy called from behind Clarke, jogging up to her and Lincoln.
