Today is the day, the 100 prisoners of The Ark were going to be sent to the ground, and I was going to be on that dropship, I couldn't believe I was going to see her brother again, it's been such a long time, he must've grown so much, I won't even recognize his face, but that's not completely true, I will always remember the face of my beloved brother.

It was almost 7Am which means they will see the sun in half an hour, so I started putting stuff in my bag, I know I'll probably need, life knives, a gun, and bottle of water. By the time I was finished, Bellamy was already knocking at my door.

He looked at me and smiled. "Are you ready?"

I couldn't be more ready, I mean, I was going to see my brother again, what could make me more excited than that? "Never been more ready."

"Then let's get going, we have to make a stop first, I got to finish a job'"

I knew what he was going to do, it was so obvious, and besides, when I was over at his house I saw a paper laying on his desk, and it came from Shumway, I know I shouldn't have, but I read it. He was going to shot Chancellor Jaha. I don't blame him tho, he's a dick.

So I was straight with him. "I know what you're gonna do, I know you're gonna shot Chancellor Jaha, Bellamy."

"You went through my stuff?" He asks me angry, and I can feel his blood boillig.

"No, the paper was just laying there- fine maybe I saw it and read it, but I mean, I don't judge you, I mean if you need help." I said seriously.

"Are you serious? Help, why would I need your help, I can do it myself."

I just wanted to laugh at what he had just said. "First of all, you needed my help for this, and second of all, because you're a lousy shot Bell."

I think he was grateful I asked. I could tell he was starting to feel overwhelmed. "You know what sure, at least I wont be in this mess alone, if I die, you die."

"Great spirit, well I would love to sit here and chitchat, but we got a dropship to catch."

After we shot Jaha with a little difficulty, we got on that dropship and hid in the two extra seats Shumway had put for the two of us. The moment we got in all we heard was screaming, and after a lot of screaming and a lot of fights, we had entered the atmosphere, I didn't actually know that I just hear someone say it, and after that a video started playing, it was Chancellor Jaha.

"Prisoners of The Ark, hear me now, you've been given a second chance, and as your Chancellor, it's my hope that you see this as not just a chance for you, but a chance for all of us indeed for mankind himself. We have no idea what is waiting for you down there. If the odds of survival were better, we would've sent others. Frankly, were sending you, because your crimes have made you expendable."

"Your dad's a dick wells" I heard a kid shout.

I started laughing, now that was true.

"Shup up Hazel, they can't know were here until we've landed."

"Jeez, okay, sorry." I respond, trying not to laugh.

Chancellor Jaha continued. "Those crimes will be forgiven; you record wiped clean..."

"Bullshit." I whispered to Bellamy. He just nodded in response.

"...The drop site has been chosen carefully, before the last war Mount Weather was a military base built within a mountain. It was to be stocked with enough nonperishables to sustain 300 people up to two years."
