The Ark: Sky Box

Clarke (Vo)I feel the sun on my face. I see trees all around me, the scent of wildflowers on a breeze. It's so beautiful. In this moment, I'm not stranded in space. It's been ninety-seven years since a nuclear apocalypse killed everyone on Earth, leaving the planet simmering in radiation. Fortunately, there were survivors. Twelve nations had operational space stations at the time of the bombs. There is now only the Ark, one station forged from the many. We're told the Earth needs another hundred years to become survivable again. Four more space-locked generations, and man can go home, back to the ground. The ground, that's the dream. This is reality.

Door opens.

Talia was drawing a photo of Bellamy, all she could ever think about was him.

She knows that she should be mad at him because all he ever did was give her pain.

Male Guard:Prisoner three-one-nine,four-three-seven face the wall.

Clarke (VO)Reality sucks.

Talia gets down from her bunk.

Talia:What is this?

The guard looks at Talia.

Male Guard:Quiet. Hold out your right arm.

Talia step's in front of Clarke.

Clarke:No. No.

Clarke shook her head and stood behind Talia.

Clarke:It's not my time. I don't turn eighteen for another month.

The other guard walked up to Clarke.

Male Guard:Hold out your arm.

Talia moved in front of Clarke.

Talia:you'll have to go through me.

The guard nodded and laughed until he hit Talia.

Clarke:Stop it!

Clarke pulls the guard away from Talia.

Clarke (VO)On The Ark, every crime, no matter how small, is punishable by death unless you're under eighteen.

Male Guard:Your watch, and your necklace.

Clarke held onto her wrist.

Clarke:No. It was my father's.

The male guard looked at Clarke.

Male Guard:Take it off.

Talia has had enough.

Talia:No.

Talia pushed the guard away from Clarke.

Male Guard:Hey!

Clarke pushed the guard away.

Clarke:No.

Talia Zaps one of the guards.

Talia then grabs Clarke's hand and they run out the door.
