Fly on the Wall: Bellamy Blake x Reader

Chapter 9: Grounder Encounter

My head is pounding as I sit inside the dropship wiping the dried blood from my temple with a rag. Bellamy barges in with a torch in hand and surveys the sleeping teens in the dropship. He sighs and looks at me with a concerned face. "Octavia's missing." He says walking back out of the dropship. I stand up and follow him back out of the dropship. Bellamy is already grabbing the weapons from his tent and dropping them into the center of camp. "Hey, everybody, gather around and grab a weapon. My sister's been out there alone for 12 hours. Arm up. We're not coming back without her."

The recently awoken teens all reach for a weapon and Jasper shyly grabs one. Clarke puts a hand on his shoulder. "Hey, Jasper, you don't have to do this. You haven't left camp since we brought you back."

Jasper gives Clarke a look. "Clarke, I need to do this."

Bellamy steps up behind Clarke and gives Jasper a nod. "We need all the people we can get." Bellamy turns to Clarke. "We need a tracker." Clarke nods and Bellamy raises his voice. "Finn. Get out here."

I take a torch from Jones and get ready to leave when Bellamy walks up to me. "You're not going."

I sheath my bone blade in my belt loop. "Like hell I'm not."

Bellamy points to the dried blood in my hair. "You're injured."

"A little head bump isn't gonna stop me. Octavia is out there and there is nothing you can do to stop me from going."

"I can knock you out again."

I hold out the torch toward his head. "How about I light your hair on fire first."

Bellamy steps back and begins walking toward the rest of the group. "Finn, we're leaving." He shouts and the group gets moving toward the woods.

"Guys, guys. Come here!" a boy shouts and points to the sky. The group stops and looks up to see hundreds of shooting stars in the sky. More delinquents awe at the beautiful sight.

Raven emerges from her tent. "They didn't work. They didn't see the flares."

Bellamy looks at Raven. "A meteor shower tells you that?" His voice is full of sarcasm.

Clarke looks at Bellamy, her face full of sorrow. "It's not a meteor shower, it's a funeral. Hundreds of bodies being returned to the earth from the ark. This is what it looks like from the other side." She turns to Raven. "They didn't get our message."

Raven marches over to Bellamy. "This is all because of you!" She screams in anger.

Finn holds her back. "I helped you find the radio." Bellamy spits back.

Raven continues to struggle against Finn's grasp. "Yeah, after you jacked it from my pod and trashed it!"

I put my hand on Raven's shoulder, looking at Bellamy. "Yeah, he knows. Now he has to live with it."

Bellamy looks back at me and then to Raven. "All I know is that my sister is out there and I'm gonna find her." Bellamy looks at Finn. "Are you coming or what?"

Finn lets go of Raven. "Yeah."

Bellamy turns around and shouts to the group. "What are we waiting for? Move out!"

I follow the group as we spread out in the woods searching for any signs of Octavia.

I hear a boy shout in the distance. "Look! Over here!"

I join up with the group to see Bellamy half way down a slope picking up something out of a bush. "It's hers" He shouts back to the group at the top. Bellamy continues to descend. "I'm going all the way down."
