     You were meant to be floated. Not stuck in a metal box hurtling its way down to Earth as a punishment for what you did. You preferred the idea of it, being ejected out into space, to be with your parents again, after all, that is how they had died.

You had been sat between two very annoying people, who were both complaining about every small little detail, blah blah blah. Death seemed like a better option than right now, but that would have to wait until you opened the dropship doors once on the ground.

Boredom decided to sink in and spread around the levels, the machine hum carried throughout the dropship and that was the least annoying thing, despite being heard your entire life.

A crackle started to form and soon the monitor had lit up with a face you didn't want to see: Thelonious Jaha, the Chancellor of the heap of metal in space. He spoke of a drop site you had been located for: Mount Weather.

Didn't he send you down here to die? Wasn't there radiation on Earth still? What the hell is that kid doing?

A boy, the same age as yourself, had got out of his seat and floated down to your level and over to two people who seemed awkwardly uncomfortable next to each other, wait...Clarke?

What was she doing here? Didn't Abby try to do something? This is her daughter for crying out loud! Did Clarke know about what her mum did to her dad? You knew you sure as hell wouldn't bring it up, Clarke and her dad had been close and her mum destroyed it. Getting him floated for knowing the truth; the Ark was dying.

Wait...Wells?

Wells Jaha? What the fuck was going on?

Thoughts clouded your mind and you didn't notice the floating boy speaking until he said, "Check it out, your dad floated me after all." You smiled at that, you liked this kid.

Two other people had got out of their seats when the dropship shifted and plummeted down to Earth at alarming speeds, the monitor cut out and the two boys, following the Spacewalker, had slammed into pipes and died instantly, whereas the Spacewalker didn't, and your vision went black.

You woke up to someone shaking you softly and what sounded like gibberish. Your head hurt and your face felt wet. You opened your eyes to see a blurry figure which formed into a head shape.

"You okay?" It came out as a faint sound when in reality it wasn't whispered but rather asked loudly by the one in front of you.

"Ow..." You groaned in pain and tried to sit up when something wrapped itself around your waist holding you up, you lifted your hand up to your head and pulled away hissing in pain.

Blood.

Your vision was coming back and you were still in the dropship but you were on the lower level and the door was open. Your head pounded in pain and the grip around your waist had tightened.

"I'm so sorry," a voice whispered into your ear over and over again, their chin resting on your shoulder, you looked down to see arms around your waist and legs either side of yours, someone was holding you from behind sitting with you rocking you back and forth slowly. "I'm so sorry."

"What happened?" Your voice croaked out and your head began to hurt again.

"I fell into you when the dropship had hit the atmosphere and I knocked you out when you hit your head because of me. I'm so sorry, Sleeping Beauty."

Um...What?

"Sleeping who now? Who are you?" Your mind was filled with more questions like earlier and it hurt, you could feel the person behind you chuckle lightly.

"Sleeping Beauty? You know the princess who fell into a deep sleep...Much like yourself really." The voice was definitely male.

"Okay great, now who are you?" You began to get annoyed as they didn't let go of you and you couldn't see their face.

"I'm Finn." Finn? Again...Who? You turned your head to try and look at his and he took his head off your shoulder and pulled his head back slightly when you saw him.

"Oh! Spacewalker!" You smiled slightly making him laugh a bit. "I liked that comment you made before, you know..." You pointed towards your head and he smiled.

"Thanks, and again, I'm sorry about that." He frowned a bit, you began to stand up when you felt his arms loosen and he began to protest about it, "You shouldn't..."

"Don't tell me what to do, Spacewalker." He smirked at you before standing up running his hand through his hair pushing it back.

"Sure thing, Sleeping Beauty." You glared at him playfully before walking backward watching him then turning around to walk down the ramp and firmly planting your feet onto the ground.

"Home sweet home," you said quietly before feeling an arm around your shoulder looking up to see Finn, you smiled and wrapped and arm around his waist and watched the others runs around taking everything in.

Finn spoke up, "Home sweet home indeed."
