I walked into the room where Clarke is being held. She was at the window. She turned around upon hearing the door.
"What part of 'I won't see you' was unclear?" She asked.
"I respected your wishes for a week, Clarke. We've got bigger concerns." I replied.
"We don't have any concerns at all."
"Yes, we do. I'm hosting a summit with Skaikru at sundown. You'll be returned to your people."
"You went through all that trouble to capture me just to let me go?" She asked,
"I went through all that trouble to save you."
"You know when I could've used saving? When you abandoned me at Mount Weather."
"Clearly, you didn't need our help."
"Clearly" She said monotonous.
"You're angry, Clarke. But I know you. What you've done haunts you. And it's easier to hate me than to hate yourself" I explained my knowledge.
"Oh, I can do both." She retorted.
"What would you have done if their leader had offered you the deal? Save your people at the price of mine. Would you really have chosen differently?"
"I don't betray my friends. I don't betray my family."
"But you did. You had friends in Mount Weather. You stood by and watched as I was sent to the ground."
"The deaths at Mount Weather were your fault too. The only difference is you had no honor and I had no choice. And I was eight!"
"I was ten!" I almost yelled. "But it helps no one to dwell on the past and that's not why I'm here. You're right I'm not just letting you go back to your people. I want something more. I want your people to become my people. We're offering Skaikru the chance to join our coalition, become the 13th clan. No one would dare to move against you because that would be moving against me and Lexa"
"Just leave me alone. I'm done, Do you understand that? I left."
"You can't run away form who you are Clarke."
"Neither can you Rocky Griffin."
"Rocky Griffin died at 10 years old when she was sent to the ground. I am Rocky kom trikru and I'm asking you to join me. Bow before me and Lexa and your people will be safe."
"Bow before you? You don't give a damn about my people. I know why you're here. I made you look weak at Mount Weather. And now the Ice Nation is exploiting that. Well, if you want the power of Wanheda, kill me. Take it. Otherwise go float yourself, because I will never bow to you." She turned around and went back to the window.

I was standing next to Lexa's throne. "Rise for your commander" Titus said once Lexa walked in.
She nodded and everyone bowed down besides me and the Azgeda ambassador.
"Ice Nation will bow before your Commander and the rock" Titus said standing up. (A/N: In case you forgot they call her the rock, or bouda because she is rock solid when being interrogated and she doesn't crack.)
"The commander and the rock should bow before Ice Nation" The ambassador stated. "We know not to make treaties with our enemies."
"They bow before no one" Titus walks closer to the ambassador.
