Crumbling Walls ( Bellamy Blake)

Pilot part 2

I am woken up by a loud crashing noise and a shaking feeling. Groaning, i open my eyes, squinting as i assess my surrounding. I am strapped to a chair in some kind of metal room, surrounded by around 30 people, all of them strapped to chairs like me. Some I recognise from before I passed out at the sky box. All criminals I'm assuming then. I see a hatch on the floor in front of me, meaning there are most likely another floor of people strapped in.

Turning my head to the left, I see my old friend, wells Jaha and next to him, another one of my old friends Clarke griffin. She is passed out but wells is very much awake, going by the glare he is throwing at me.

"Where are we?" I ask in a shaky voice. The rocking of the room and flickering lights are making me sick. Wells rolls his eyes before answering me, "we are in a drop ship. Heading towards earth" 'what! No. We can't be. It's not safe. Not for another 100 years'. "we can't be! The radiation will kill us" wells must hear the panic in my voice because his eyes soften and he tells me quietly "we are expendable. My father is taking a risk. He wouldn't send us down without reason. Just hope that the ground is inhabitable."

I try taking my mind off the fact that we are catapulting towards a planet that might kills us, by asking wells how him and Clarke got put on the ship with all us criminals. He sighs loudly before telling me it is none of my business.

Seeing clearly he doesn't want to speak to me, I close my eyes and quietly sing 'Katie's song'.

My youth 

My youth is yours

Trippin' on skies, sippin' waterfalls

My youth

My youth is yours

Run away now and forevermore

My youth

My youth is yours

The truth so loud you can't ignore

My youth, my youth, my youth

My youth is yours

After about five minutes and a particularly bad jerk of the drop-ship. Clarke wakes up. I turn to look at her when I hear her groaning. A look of surprise passes her face when she finally inspects her surroundings, and her eyes land on wells. Looks like I'm not the only one confused as to why the Chancellor's son is apparently expendable

"Clarke look-" Wells starts, only to be interrupted by Clarke. "Wells what the hell are you doing here?" she asks in a low snarl. After hearing Wells' reply, I turn away from them. Feeling like I was intruding on something. "when I found out they were send the prisoners to the ground, I got myself arrested." after a moment's pause he said "I came for you" with a smile.

As much as I want to be moved by their moment. I'm not. Actually I'm pissed. Wells and I have been friends since we were little kids. Maybe even when we were in nappy's and yet I'm not important enough for him to even acknowledge. Sighing to myself, I think 'it's always Clarke. It will always be all about Clarke. I can never compete with their friendship'.

Just then, the lights start to flicker. The drop-ship rocks harder than before and a couple people scream. I don't understand why they would scream though. 'We lived on the ark, flickering lights are normal. And we've been rocking since we got on this damn thing'. "what was that" Clarke questions in a shaky voice. "That was the atmosphere" i tell her. Her head snaps towards me so fast i'm surprised she didn't get whiplash. Her eyes narrow at me but she keeps her mouth shut.

I know why she looks at me like that. I did something horrible to her before i was arrested. and I don't expect her to forgive me.Really. But it still hurts. Do you ever get that feeling in your chest, it feels like something is pushing down on you and it's hard to breath, every breath hurts. That's what i feel when i think about what i done, what happened because of it, and how it solved nothing. 'Guilt' i think to myself. 'I'm feeling guilty'
