I was training with Aiden, he's gotten really good with the staff so today we were practicing with the swords, my specialty.
"Come on brother you can do better than this" I taunted as we circled each other, our swords clashed together, now it was a fight for dominance.
"It's not fair" Aiden whined as he picked up his sword from the floor after I won and made him lose the sword trowing it to the floor
"Live isn't fair brother"
"I know but-" Aiden Started but then stopped himself and stared at the sky in amazement. What is he staring at
"What is that sis?" Aiden asked. Is it a ship? Holy crap it is, the people from the sky are back. Well we better hope they don't want war
"It looks like a ship"
"Hat do we do now? It doesn't look like it's gonna land too far away from here" Aiden said
"Let's get Hallie. We're going to TonDC, I need to talk to Lexa"
"Are we gonna have to stay there?" Aiden asked
"I'm not sure brother" I said then we both got our packs and went back in the cave to look for Hallie
"How was training? Aiden lost right?" Hallie asked not looking up from her drawing, Aiden went to get some clothes from his room and I peeked through Hallie's drawing. WOW, she's gotten really good. Lincoln's classes have been pretty useful to her
"We're going to TonDC sis, get your pack"
"Did something happen?" Hallie asked
"A metal box is falling from the sky"
"That's so cool. Can we go see it?" Halle said excitedly
"Sis not the time"
"I'll get my things" Hallie said. We rode our two horses, Athena and Apollo, I was riding Athena while Aden rode Apollo with Hallie on his back. We rode for an hour before finally arriving. We left our horses not too far away from the village and entered
"Kath?" A very familiar voice called
"James" I exclaimed as we hugged
"It's great to see you. Did you see the big-" James started
"Metal box? Yes I saw it. That's why I'm here. Is Lexa or Anya here?"
"Yeah. They both are they're actually discussing a plan right now" James informed
"Where?"
"The central hut" James said
"Thanks"
"Of course. Do you want me to hang out with Aiden and Hallie while you talk to them?" James offered
"That'd be awesome. I'll be back soon" I said before walking towards the central hut and knocking
"Katherine" Anya said
"Anya"
"Please. Come in" Anya said and I did as told
"Great timing. We have a plan" Lexa informed. Already? Great
"What's the plan then?"
"You're not gonna like it" Anya started. I don't really like anything you do
"But you don't have a choice" Lexa finished
"So... what is it?"
"We sent scouts earlier but we could only get so much information" Anya informed. Smart
"What information did they get?"
"There's about a hundred of them, most of them are approximately between seventeen to twenty years of age. They don't seem to have a former leader yet. And for some reason they refer themselves as 'criminals' " Indra informed from her place to the left of Lexa. Well they sent crap scouts. That's less than not enough
"That's not enough information to make a plan Lexa"
"We know that. That's why we want someone to go in and pretend to be one of them and find out more about them" Lexa said
"With that someone being?"
"You are the best warrior and you're their age, you'll fit in easier than any other warrior" Anya praised
"I'm not doing it"
"You don't have a choice" Indra said
"Yes I do, and I'm choosing not to"
"It's a direct order from Lexa. May I remind you she's the commander?" Anya asked
"I know she is. I'm not leaving my siblings"
"Anya, Indra, leave us."
"Yes heda" Indra said before walking out with Anya behind her
"If you're gonna give me a speech to try and convince me, save it. I'm not leaving for your stupid suicide mission"
"Do not test me Katherine. Get ready, you're doing this for your people"
"My sibling are my people"
"What about James, Lincoln, Indra, Gaia?" Lexa asked
"They're my family too. But they don't depend on me, they are not my responsibility. My siblings are"
"Your sibling are strong just like you. Do this for them, you'd be protecting your family from a potential threat"
"Fine. But I'm doing this for them, not you or Anya"
"Good. We got you this clothes so you'll blend in" Lexa said as she gave me a grey slim fit top long sleeved, black jeans, new black boots, and a black jacket" cute outfit
"Doesn't look too bad"
"You'll go to Lincoln's cave every four days to give us information" Lexa said. Sounds like a plan
"When am I leaving?"
"Right now. Get dressed, say your goodbyes and leave" Lexa ordered
"On it" I said before walking out with the clothes. How am I gonna tell them? I got dressed and placed my daggers, bow and quiver in a small bag, placed a two medium sized knifes on both my boots, and lastly placed my sword on the double bag, then walked towards James, Aiden and Hallie
"What happened?" James asked noticing my new clothes
"I- I'm going to infiltrate to get more information. Basically see if they are a threat or not"
""You're leaving?" Aiden asked worriedly
"I don't want to leave you, either of you. But I have to Den"
"I know sis. I love you"
" I love you too Aiden" I said then we hugged then I hugged Hallie
"Don't leave sis" Hallie said not letting go of me
"I have to, love"
"Promise me you'll come back" Hallie said
"I promise I'll come back Hails"
"I love you sis" Hallie said
"I love too Hallie"
"Kath" James said
"James" We both hugged
"Good luck, and please don't do anything stupid" James said
"Never" I said winking at him and he rolled her eyes, then I got on Athena and we started going towards where the ship landed. About a couple miles away from the location I got off of Athena and sent her back to TonDC, then I kept walking towards the ship. Then I saw it. Whoah, this looks weird but cool. No walls, no guards, loud noises. They must really be idiots, but of course with no leader what did I expect. They just made my job so much easier. I walked into their 'camp' if you could even call it that, it looked more like a zoo from my father's stories when I was little only the animals were out of their cages and the doors of the zoo weren't there. Alright let's get to work. I sat next to a small group of teenagers or as they call themselves "delinquents".
"Hey, I'm Katherine"I figured I'd use my real name, if I didn't I'd probably slip and then I'd be screwed
"I'm- Nathan Miller. Guys this is Katherine" Miller said toward the group introducing me. This people trust a bit too easy. They seem too innocent for Earth
"I'm Harper" A girl said introducing herself
"Mbege" A guy said
"Monroe" A girls said
"Sterling" Another guy said
"Nice meeting you all"
"So, what's your crime?" Sterling asked. Crime? Wait so they are all criminals but- they are just kids, they seem so innocent
"I stole, Harper killed her boyfriend for cheating. So what did you do?" Miller asked. And here I thought Harper would be the most innocent of them.
"I stole from-"
"Let me guess, the council?" Sterling asked. Council? It must be like a group of commanders or something.
"Sure did"
"That's so cool" Harper praised. I'm assuming they are major assholes for the way she said that. They could be still in the sky, if they are I need to make sure they stay there. I really don't want anymore wars specially with my siblings still so little. We talked for pretty long time, I was already tired of everything but hey it's my job now isn't it. Though I think I got more than enough information from them. Next target: Potential danger/leader/rebel.
"Well I'm gonna go rest. See you all later"
"See you around" Nate called before I left. I saw a boy alone bringing logs as if getting ready to make a fire, he was working on it wrong but hey at least he was doing something, most people were just sitting on their asses. If they keep going on like this they won't survive. For what it looks like they don't even know there was survivors to the praimfaya
"Hey"
"If you're gonna threaten me to death cause my dad is the chancellor just leave" The boy said. So he is the famous Wells, Jaha's son
"Relax, I know you're not your dad Wells. I just wanna help"
"Sorry for snapping at you, I'm just tired of people wanting me dead cause of my father" Wells said looking up from the logs
"It's all good, I get it"
"What's your name?" Wells asked
"Katherine"
"So I got some wood to make a fire, but I don't really know how to make one" Wells said
"Let me" I offered and he just nodded but then we heard a commotion not too far away.
"Should we check it out?"
"I'm right behind you" Wells said getting up then we both walked towards the commotion, and I definitely did not expect this
"What the hell do you think you're doing?" Wells yelled at a tall boy, his hair was slicked back. But he'd look crazy hot with curls. There was a line of people batting their 'wristbands' off. They are essentially doing the dirty job for me. Looks like no blood will be on my hands tonight. Great.
"We're liberating ourselves. What does it look like?" The tall boy said sassily. Sassy, love it.
" It looks like you're trying to get us all killed. The communication system is dead. These wristbands are all we got. Take them off, and the Ark will think we're dying, that it's not safe for them to follow" Wells said
'That's the point, Chancellor. We can take care of ourselves, can't we?" The tall boy said. No, you can't, my people are gonna kill you, and if you keep playing untouchable you won't stand a chance, it'd be pretty pathetic
"  Yeah!" The idiots cheered
"You think this is a game? Those aren't just our friends and our parents up there. They're our farmers, our doctors, our engineers. I don't care what he tells you. We won't survive here on our own, and besides, if it really is safe, how could you not want the rest of our people to come down?" Wells said. At least Wells has an actual brain, but one person with actual brain cells isn't enough to save their people even he knows that.
"My people already are down. Those people locked my people up. Those people killed my mother for the crime of having a second child. Your father did that" Bellamy said getting closer to Wells and shoving him, I thought of helping him but Wells needs to learn to defend himself. Crime of having a second child?
"My father didn't write the laws" Wells defended
"No. He enforced them, but not anymore, not here. Here, there are no laws" the tall boy said exclaimed and the delinquents cheered
"Here, we do whatever the hell we want whenever the hell we want. Now, you don't have to like it, Wells. You can even try to stop it or change it, kill me. You know why? Whatever the hell we want" The tall boy said. Would you look at that the boy has fire, looks like the hundred got a leader and that's one hell of a rule, which will eventually get people killed but hey at least they have a leader though they still will lose. This 'tall boy' is really dumb but he's doing my dirty work for me. No more sky people coming down makes my job so much easier
"Whatever the hell we want!" His goons cheered and soon enough everyone was chanting, Wells looked at me as if saying "what do we do now?" And I just shrugged, then all of the sudden thunder made itself known, I felt the rain drops on my face. I love rain.
"Rain! Real rain!" The delinquents yelled excitedly
"We need to collect this" Wells told the tall boy
"Whatever the hell you want" The tall boy said. He really doesn't want to survive does he?
"Let's go. If the hundred die of thirst is on them not us" I said to Wells before walking away with Wells behind me. After we collected enough water for the two of us we talked, he told me about the group that went to Mt. Weather.
"So basically, there were five people in the group, first is Clarke she hates you, then Spacewalker burned a month worth of air and flirts with Clarke all the time, Octavia is Bellamy's little sister,and lastly there's Jasper and Monty they are the science and tech dorks" I said and Wells laughed
"I mean- sure that's one way of saying it" Wells said
"It was nice to talk to you I'm gonna go rest alright?"
"Night Katherine" Wells said
"My friends call me Kath. Night Wells"
