Who We Are

Chapter 3

Earth Skills

Vivian walked back into camp, her and Miller went out to pick some berries to eat, and when they got back, she asked Miller to hand some out. When she walked up to the dropship, she saw Atom harassing Wells about the stuff he had.

"Levae him alone Atom. Don't you have anything better to do?" Vivian asked, standing between them with her arms crossed.

"I was just seeing what he has." Atom said.

"Yeah, well, I don't think it concerns you. I mean, do you need any of the things he has, or do you just want them? Because those are two very different things." Vivian replied.

"She's right. We share based on need, just like back home." Wells said thankful that the girl was on his side with this. Just then, Bellamy walked out of the dropship without a shirt, and Vivian couldn't help but stare.

"You still don't get it, do you, Chancellor?" Bellamy asked, and Vivians heart dropped seeing the girl that walked out with him kissed him. "This is home now. Your father's rules no longer apply." He added, snatching a shirt that Wells was holding.

"Wow." Vivian mumbled, and Wells tried to go after Bellamy, but Atom stopped.

"Oh no, no, Atom. Atom, hold up." Bellamy said, and Atom stopped holding him back. "You want it back, take it." He added, holding up the shirt. Wells just threw the other things to the side, and a group of kids fought over it.

Vivian looked at them, either disbelief. Wells was right. They needed rules.

"Is this what you want? Chaos?" Wells asked in disbelief, and Bellamy just shrugged.

"What's wrong with a little Chaos?" Bellamy asked, causing Vivian to scoff.

"A lot of things could go wrong." She pointed out, but Bellamy just ignored her, and just like that, they heard a girl scream in the distance and Bellamy threw the shirt over his head, and they took off.

When they got to the source of the scream, they saw Murphy holding a girl's wrist over the fire.

"Bellamy. Check it out. We want the Ark to think that the ground is killing us, right? Figure it'll look better if we suffer a little." Murphy said, looking over at them and then back the girl.

"Murphy let her go." Vivian said, going to stop him, but Bellamy held her wrist, so Wells shoved Murphy off the girl.

"Let her go." Wells said, shoving him off the girl, then looked back at Bellamy and Vivian. "You can stop this." He added, but Vivian knew that Bellamy was the only one that could at this point.

"Stop this? I'm just getting started." Bellamy replied, causing Vivian to look up at him.

"Bellamy." She replied with a shock tone, and Murphy punched Wells in the face, and a fight broke out. "No, stop!" She went to pull Murphy off, but he threw his elbow back and hit the girl in the mouth.

Vivian fell back, hitting her head on the ground with a groan. Bellamy was about to rush over to her and stop the fight, but Miller rushed over to her first.

"Will!" Miller yelled, pulling her off the ground, holding her up.

"Get her back to camp." Bellamy said, causing Vivian to roll her eyes.

"No, really?" She replied sarcastically, and Miller helped her back to camp.

The two were sitting on a log while Miller cleaned the blood off her lip.

"What were you thinking, jumping into a fight like that?" Miller asked, causing her to shrug.

"We've only been here a day, and this place is already falling apart." Vivian said, and Miller shook his head.
