The First On The Ground

Sanctum

(AUGUST POV)

"We need to wake the others," I say as I pull away from Bellamy before wiping my tears away.

"August, we should talk," Bellamy says as he turns to me wiping his own tears away. "At least before everything gets crazy as it always does."

"Bellamy, this is bigger than whatever messed up relationship that we have. We can talk after we figure out if we have a new home or not," I tell him as I cross my arms over my chest. "Besides I think Echo will be happy to see her boyfriend, once she wakes up." I knew it was a harsh jab but as far as I knew, they were still together and as much as I love Bellamy, I wasn't going to get between them. I could see the hurt on Bellamy's face as I left the room to go wake who I thought needed to be awoken first. I woke Clarke, Murphy, Emori, Raven, Shaw, Abby, and Echo, who immediately hugged Bellamy as he walked into the room. After they changed, we played them Monty's videos before showing them the planet.

"I know this is a lot to process. Take an hour and meet in the mess. We need to game this out," Bellamy orders.

"Guys, we survived. Monty, made sure of it," I tell them with a smile as I stand beside Clarke.

"Now we get out humanity back," Abby adds as she and Clarke hug.

"Some of us never lost it," Raven says angrily before walking out of the room with Shaw following her.

An Hour Later

Clarke and I walk into the mess to find Bellamy and Echo sitting beside each other, across from Murphy and Emori. I hold back an eye roll as I see Bellamy and Echo. After the way he had been acting towards me and now he's right back with her, it pissed me off to no end.

"There you two are. Checking on Madi and Mika?" Jordan asks as Clarke and I walk over to him.

"Yeah," I answer him with a smile. He is so innocent just like Monty and Harper were.

"My dad preserved this for when we woke up," Jordan explains as he motions to the algae in front of him. "I'm told it doesn't taste very good, but since it's all I've ever eaten..." I let out a slight giggle as he hands me a bowl of it before handing one to Clarke.

"Thanks," I tell him as Clarke looks at the bowl skeptically.

"Your mom's not touching hers, by the way," Jordan says causing them to look over at Abby.

"She's worried about my father," I explain as Clarke and I frown.

"We'll go talk to her," Clarke reassures Jordan.

"Kane. I forgot. Uh, stay here," Jordan says quickly before rushing off. Clarke and I share a confused look before she starts walking over to Abby. I look in the direction that Jordan left before following after Clarke.

"Hey, you see Raven or Shaw?" Bellamy asks causing Clarke and I to stop.

"You know, the people you handed over to our enemy to be tortured," Emori says with slight anger.

"Now, for Clarke, we call that a Tuesday," Murphy retorts causing me to glare at him.

"Easy. She did the right thing in the end," Echo says causing me to roll my eyes.

"No. We haven't seen them but I'll keep a lookout for when we need a cockroach or some thieves, or liars," I say with a smirk before Clarke and I walk over to Abby.

"Hey, mom you've got to eat," Clarke says as she sits beside Abby and I sit across from them. "It could be a while before we find a food source."

"What I need is a source of propofol or pentobarbital," Abby tells her before Clarke grabs her hand comfortingly.
