Second Born ~ The 100 FanFiction

Season 2 Ep 4&5

"Oh, I'm so sorry!" Raven gasped, seeing me in only my bra. I noticed she saw my new scars from the shock lashes.

"Relax," I sighed, pulling the shirt down over my head. "New scars make me look tough, right? I see you've got some new hardware!" I smirked and nodded at her brace.

"It helps me walk, so I've gotta deal with it!" Raven shrugged, "If only I could figure out how to make that damn beacon work!"

"Too bad you guys can't just build a higher radio tower. The higher the tower, then the higher the signal... at least, I think that's what people always say."

"Oh my gosh, the helium!" Raven cheered, placing a kiss onto my cheek, "You're a genius!"

I sat there wide eyed as I watched her run off. I nodded and shrugged at myself, "I know I'm a genius."

Later on in the night a crowd had gathered near the front gate. Apparently, a group of guards had captured a grounder outside the gates and now planned to make it a prisoner. I watched as they carried her dirty body closer to the Ark, but the more I observed, the more I noticed that it wasn't a grounder at all.

"Wait!" I shouted, being pushed back before I could reach her.

"Stand back! This is a grounder prisoner."

"She's not a grounder!" I defended.

"Clarke..." Someone whispered, "That's my daughter!" Abby stated.

I stayed over night with Clarke in the medical tent. I must have fallen asleep because Abby was shaking me awake.

"Sweetheart, she's awake." Abby smiled at me, leaving the room for Clarke and I to be alone.

I shook my head, "You sure like to make an entrance, huh?"

She let out a laugh and engulfed me into a long hug. "I'm glad you're okay." she sighed.

"Careful, people might think you care." I winked.

She just rolled her eyes at me and we made our way outside. Raven had been waiting for Clarke to wake up, so they exchanged a hug as well. Before we could get too far into our conversation, there was another crowd growing at the gate. People were walking in, but I couldn't make out any of their faces.

"Oh my god..." Clarke sighed, "Bellamy!"

She stormed off to them, while I stayed back and helped Raven make her way up.

"Is that... Octavia?" She stated, looking at me right away.

I took a deep breath as we reached the rest of them. Bellamy gave me a hug and a smile, while Octavia and I shared eye contact afterwards. The last time I saw her she was taking off into a tunnel. Without anymore hesitation she wrapped her arms around me tightly and based on her breathing, she was trying to hold in a cry.

"I'm glad you're okay." She whispered, hugging me tighter.

I was now wondering the woods in search for Finn and Murphy. Currently, I was beside Octavia in silence until she broke it.

"You didn't have to come," She said, looking in my direction, "It's not safe out here."

"Yeah and you didn't have to leave." I snapped.

"Aiden..."

"I'm out here for Clarke, Bellamy, and Finn. We find Finn, and then we find the others. I don't care if it isn't safe... I'm tired of hiding and being afraid. You leaving did that to me." I clenched my jaw, looking her dead in the eyes.

Just as she went to reply we heard gun shots in the distance. We all made eye contact with each other and bolted. We were running so fast that I could feel the burning in my lungs and my heart beating from the nerves. Finally, we made it and I wish that I had stayed back. There were grounders shot on the ground, or huddled next to the other in fear. Standing in the center of it all was Finn, holding the gun.

We made our way to the middle of the camp and Finn's eyes were locked on Clarke's. I could sense that Clarke was now on edge when it came to Finn. When he took a step towards her I pushed her behind me and glared him back.

"I found you." He sighed.
