"Lance,
Is that
You?"
Grover asked,
Getting up
Suddenly.
Tempest
Was talking to him.
At the mention
Of my name,
Her and
Kathryn,
One of my village's
Warriors,
Turned around.
Her expression
Contoured
To pure anger,
And she instantly
Unsheathed her sword.
"Traitor!"
She spat,
About to run at me,
When Grover stopped her.
He grinned,
As I came closer,
Glaring at Kathryn.
"Like hell
I am."
I answered,
Even though
Her accusation
Was true.
"Grover,
Let me
Have his head.
Please."
Kathryn
Begged,
Glaring back
At me.
Grover looked at her
And rolled his eyes,
Then told her to
Stand down.
Kathryn huffed,
But put her
Sword back.
"Brother,
Where have
You been?"
Grover asked,
Standing up.
I'd already thought
Of what I'd said.
"Looking for
Lincoln,
Sir.
I stumbled across
Skaikru,
And took some of their
Clothes
Since my old ones
Were torn
From the previous battle.
I killed
Four of their
People."
I reported,
Looking at Kathryn,
Who's expression
Had changed
To one
Of respect.
Tempest's eyes
Widened.
"I thought
You wanted
Peace
With Skaikru?"
She asked,
Raising her eyebrows.
I nodded.
"Oh,
I do.
But jus drein
Jus daun
Was more important
At the time."
I confirmed,
Before looking back at Grover.
"I don't think
Peace with Skaikru
Can be attainable.
Tomorrow morning,
I am calling
For Indra's army,
To march upon the Skaikru
Camp."
He reported,
And I felt
My heart
Drop.
"Sir,
That's not
Necessary.
Skaikru
Doesn't know
About the Mountain Men."
I said,
Thinking quickly.
Kathryn and Tempest
Exchanged looks.
"The Mountain Men
Killed Anya.
There is nothing
We can do."
Kathryn said finally.
I nodded.
"How can
You be so
Sure?
I say
We go to Polis,
And speak
To Commander Lexa."
I suggested,
And Grover
Looked
Like he might
Agree.
"I'll have to
Discuss it
With Indra,
And the other
Trikru village
Leaders."
He said,
Before dismissing Kathryn and
Tempest.
"Are you welcome
In Skaikru?"
He asked,
As soon as they
Were gone.
I shook my head.
Another
Lie.
"But I can be."
I said,
Nervously
Chewing on
My lip,
Glad he couldn't
See it,
Due to my
Helmet.
Grover nodded
Finally.
"Then stay here
For now.
Indra and I
Will speak
Tomorrow."
