Clarke POV

-Earth, present day-

"We need to take her to the Ark!" My mom yelled while giving Alyson CPR. I feel my world falling apart... She was the one who made me feel better about myself, she was the first person to accept everything about me. And now she's talking about dying? I can't let her give up like this... I'll show her the same kind of affection she showed me a while back.

"Clarke, I need your help." My mom said. I didn't even noticed she moved closer to me while Niko was making sure if Alyson would survive the trip to the Ark. She was holding my shopresenand looking straight to my eyes. "Clarke, do you know what she is talking about?"

"NO!" I yelled as I ran to Alyson when Niko stopped the compressions. I held her hand and was ready to yell at him when I noticed she had a pulse. She then took a deep breath in and opened her eyes as fast as humanly possible. That scared the sh*t out of me and my mom. I even saw Niko go for his waist band where his dagger was.

"What happened?" I managed to hear her whisper.

"What HAPPENED? YOU DON'T REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED?" I was so upset that I started to yell as loud as I possibIy could. I turned my back to all of the surpriaed lools I was getting. As I was walking towards the exit of the tent, Indra came in.

"Clarke of the Sky People, the Commander asked to see you." The woman was definitly bored and that was just reason enough to leave this tent. As I walked to Lexa's tent, I started to be nervous. Would she be calling me because of what happened earlier? Did she think it was too much? If that's the case, what would she do to me?

I was walking right after Indra and when she stopped I wasn't fast enough and collided with her. She quickly looked at me and I thought she would cut my head off. But to my surprise her facial expression softened.

"Clarke, things are not always as they seem. You have a leader's head, but a weak heart. Love is weakness..." I wanted to answer her but by the time my words were meant to come out she was gone.

I took a deep breath before walking inside the biggest tent in the village. "You called Commander?" I asked with the coldest voice I have ever used. It surprised me but if Lexa wanted to punish me for what happened, it wouldn't happen without a fight. Not that I wanted to fight her... But... She looked at me with amusement in her eyes. That pissed me off.

"Calm down Clarke of the Sky People. I don't want to fight you." No, you want to punish me, I thought. "I just thought you could use some rest from everything. Your people will be leaving to the Ark in the morning and I assumed you would go with them. So you should rest." She was staring at my eyes and once she finished this sentence her eyes started to go down. I stopped for a second while she checked me out. Then I started doing the same. She was wearing her usual clothes but, somehow she looked more atractive than ever. The feeling of excitment I like so much started to grow inside me and I felt guilty. What if I have something on my clothes? I looked down and there was nothing. I look up and she's right in front of me.
"Clarke of the Sky people, I need to know something." Her face was serious but her eyes seemed worried. I nodded not being able to do anything else. "What has that girl on you?" I saw a glimpse of anger in her eyes and I started to be worried. I knew who she was talking about but I decided to look dumb.

"Who?"

"The traitor..." Her stare was deadly but somehow that didn't scare me, it left me furious!

"She's not a traitor!" I yelled. "She's the reason I'm here in the first place. She was the one who showed me your note. She was the one who showed me acceptance for who I am and that is more than I ecer asked of her." And with that I left the tent and decided to leave to Camp Jaha with my people.
