Emilia knew her time in the skybox was coming to an end. Her 18th birthday only 4 days away, but as she sat and waited for the guards to bring her breakfast like they do every day at this time, they never showed.
A few hours later, the heavy pounding of boots alerted me to the guards. I sat on my little bed which wasn't much of a bed as my door opens and 3 guards walk in "Prisoner 37 against the wall" he grumbles I stand up moving against the wall as he walks over to me a metal bracelet in hand.
I could see the needles sticking out from the metal right before he clasps it onto my wrist a slight pain erupts from the needles "What's going on I'm not 18 yet" the guards don't respond instead they drag me out of my cell where I see all the other prisoners What could be causing them to release all of us from our cells mass execution to save on air I highly doubt Jaha or my dad would pardon 100 criminals
But that's when my eyes lock onto where we are going, and I realize they really are executing us, sending us to the ground. Pike said in earth skills the ground wouldn't be inhabitable for another 4 space generations.
The drop-ship fills slowly as we all buckle in, the doors close and the ship breaks away from the ark, hurtling towards earth. Chancellor Jaha's voice fills the ship, his face appearing on screens right in front of me.
"Prisoners of the ark, hear me now. You've been given a second chance, and as your chancellor, it is my hope that you see this not as a chance for you, but a chance for all of us."
"Indeed, for mankind itself. We have no idea what is waiting for you down there. If the odds of survival were better, we would've sent others. Frankly, we're sending you because your crimes have made you expendable".
From somewhere on the ship, someone yells, "Your dad's a dick Wells?" Wells, Jaha is on the ship? How the hell did the chancellor's son get arrested, and I didn't even hear about it.
"However, if you do survive, those crimes will be forgiven, your records wiped clean." I laugh at that "Bullshit" I say, catching the attention of the ark princess herself, "The drop site has been chosen carefully. Before the last war, mount weather was a military base built within a mountain. It was stocked with enough nonperishable to sustain 300 people for up to two years. You have one job. One mission. Survive."
The comms cut out disrupting the chancellor his voice and instructions cutting out "Spacewalker strikes again" Someone says, and my curiosity is soon drawn to a boy removing his seatbelt floating around the ship
"Your dad floated me, after all." Finn says, "You should strap in before the parachutes deploy." Wells replies, "Hey, you two, stay put if you want to live." Clarke says.
"Hey, you're the traitor who's been in solitary for a year." Finn says, "You're the idiot who wasted a month of oxygen on an illegal spacewalk." Clark replies.
"Stay in your seats" Clarke says watching two other teens follow Finn, just as the ship hits the ground the teens slam into the wall of the ship
"Finn are you okay" I ask knowing raven would kill me if anything happened to him "I'm good" he replies standing up I climb out of my seat checking on the other two
"He's dead" I say before making my way down to the lower level where the door is "No we can't just open the doors" Clarke says "Why not" I ask "Hey just back it up guys" A dark-haired guy says
"Stop, the air could be toxic" Clarke says "if the air is toxic we're all dead anyway" The man replies "Bellamy" I hear from behind me just as a petite brunette walks up to the man
My God, look how big you are." the man I now know as Bellamy says, "What the hell are you wearing, a guard's uniform?" She asks "I borrowed it to get on the drop-ship. Someone has got to keep an eye on you." Bellamy says.
"Where's your wristband?" Clarke asks "Do you mind? I haven't seen my brother in a year." Octavia says, "No one has a brother." A boy says, "Hey how about you shut the fuck up did you not just hear her say she hasn't seen him" I say.
"That's Octavia Blake, the girl they found hidden in the floor." A girl says Octavia goes to attack them, but he stops her "Octavia, Octavia, no. Let's give them something else to remember you by." He says "Yeah? Like what?" Octavia asks "Like being the first person on the ground in a hundred years." Bellamy says.
she smiles before slowly walking to the edge her boots making a loud noise on the ground as she steps off throwing her hands in the air yelling "We're back bitches" Everyone yells running out of the drop ship
slowly I walk out looking around at the trees breathing the air never thought I'd be here but I will make damn sure my dad thinks I'm dead turning I see Clarke and Wells standing by a rock
Walking over I hear them talking "Well, all that matters right now is getting to Mount Weather. See? Look. This is us. This is where we need to get to if we want to survive." Clarke says "Where'd you learn to do that?" Wells asks but then realizes it was her father
"Ah, cool, a map. They got a bar in this town? I'll buy you a beer." Jasper says "You mind?" Wells says pushing Jasper back "Easy wells he didn't do anything wrong" I say "Whoa." Jasper says
"Hey, hey, hey, hands off of him. He's with us." a random man says "Relax. We're just trying to figure out where we are." Wells says "We're on the ground. That not good enough for you?" Bellamy says
"We need to find Mount Weather. You heard my father's message. That has to be our first priority." Wells says "Screw your father. What, you think you're in charge here, you and your little Princess?" Octavia says
"Do you think we care who's in charge? We need to get to Mount Weather not because the Chancellor said so, but because the longer we wait, the hungrier we'll get and the harder this'll be. How long do you think we'll last without those supplies? We're looking at a twenty-mile trek, okay? So if we want to get there before dark, we need to leave now." Clarke says
"I got a better idea. You two go, find it for us. Let the privileged do the hard work for a change." Bellamy says "You're not listening. We all need to go." Wells says "Look at this, everybody... The Chancellor of Earth." Murphy says "Back the fuck off Murphy" I say stepping beside wells
"Woah princess let Murphy have some fun his father is the reason he was locked up" Bellamy says "For one I ain't no damn princess and two his father did not him" I say
Murphy steps closer trying to push me but wells steps infront of me and Murphy pushes him instead he lands on the ground with a loud thud I help him up and Murphy comes closer again but Finn jumps down from the dropship standing between us
"Kid's got one leg. How about you wait until it's a fair fight?" Finn says "Hey, spacewalker, rescue me next." Octavia says "So Mount Weather. When do we leave?" Finn asks "Right now. We'll be back tomorrow with food." Clarke says
"How are the two of you gonna carry enough food for a hundred?" Wells asks Finn steps back grabbing Monty and Jasper "Four of us. Can we go now?" Finn asks "Sounds like a party. Make it five." Octavia says
"Hey, were you trying to take this off?" Clarke asks grabbing Finn's wrist to look at his wristband "Yeah. So" Finn says "So this wristband transmits your vital signs to The Ark. Take it off, and they'll think you're dead." Clarke says
"Should I care?" Finn asks "Well, I don't know. Do you want the people you love to think you're dead? Do you want them to follow you down here in two months? Because they won't if they think we're dying." Clarke says "Okay! Now let's go." Clarke says and they take off towards mount weather
