The Only Two Left [COMPLETED]

16. The Assassin

a/n- the girl above is the actor who will be playing Charmaine in the 100 season 5. 

"Hello, Vinson. I'm sure you are very confused and disoriented. You probably don't even remember where you are, or how you came to be here. You're on a ship called the Eligius ship. This ship was designed to take you into space for long periods of time.It has an automatic timer and will fly you back to Earth in the year 2158. We will be waiting for you then. Why 2158, you may ask? 2158 is the year Hypersl-" The video stops abruptly. Shifting my eyes towards the hand of the culprit that turned it off, I see Zeke standing there. 

"Everything that woman on the video said was the exact same thing she said to Charmaine and I," Zeke explains when everyone was wondering why he turned it off. "So, why would the rest of it be any different?"

None of us object his claims. Instead, Robert grabs the interactive tablet and takes it off of the Hypersleep chamber, carefully this time. 

Robert swipes through the notes that are on the tablet, and stops when he finds "Vinson".

"Assassination of the President?" Charmaine asks, a look of shock imprinted on her face. 

"I remember that!" Zeke exclaims. 'On the inauguration of Trump's presidency in 2016, some man shot him. The man is this Vinson guy I guess. Man, he must have wicked aim if he shot the president from behind the border control line."

Robert, Charmaine, and I give him disapproving looks. 

Madi, being the sweetheart she is, just asks, "What's a president?"

"Madi, you remember Lexa, the Commander, right?" I ask.

"Yes," she replies. 

"Well, a president is like a commander. They are in charge of everybody," I explain.

"Ooh, I get it. Thanks, Clarke."

After a moment of silence, Robert asks the burning question that has been on the tip of our tongues, but we've been too anxious to ask.

"So, are we going to go after this Vinson guy or what?"

"Why would we do that?" Charmaine asks. 

"Because he's a dangerous criminal that needs to be contained!" Madi protests. 

"We're 'dangerous criminals', Madi," argues Robert. 

"I think we should go after him. He can't have gotten far, so we can probably find him by the end of tomorrow," I suggest. 

"Okay, so it's settled. We'll go after this Vinson guy, or whatever, and get him. Then what?" Zeke asks. 

"Then," I start. "We dig out my friends."
