Living in space your whole life has to be a damper. Never spelt fresh air. Never felt rain or the ocean breeze. But after 97 years 100 kids get a chance to go back to earth. Will it be safe. And what will happen to these children.
I wake up in an all white room. I have an IV connected to me.
"Hello? Is anyone there?" I shout. I pull off the IV. I get up and go to the window. I see Ana on the other side. "Ana? Ana? Are you ok?" I slam on the door.
Someone comes in. They are in a hazmat suit.
They hold out there hand.
"I'm not coming with you. Who are you where am I?" I back up.
They just keep holding out there hand. I don't take it.
They leave. Soon they come back with jasper.
"Athena it's ok. They want to help us. Let them take you to the medical wing and they'll let you go." He says calmly.
I nod letting them take me.
They patch me up and give me clothes.

They release me into a dinning hall. I see all my people.
"Where's Clarke?" I ask.
"She's still down there. In the contament quarters." Monty says.
"Bellamy? Octavia? Finn? Axel? Are any of them here?" I ask
He shakes his head no
I look around strangers are all around me. I start to freak out. I can't breathe I drop to the ground and start to cry.
Guards come in.
"What's wrong with her?" One of them asks.
"Need air. Real air." Is all I manage.
"Take her to the medical wing." A guard shouts.
I feel someone pick me up. I close my eyes. When I wake up im in the medical wing again.
An older man comes in.
"Athena Kane. I'm Dante Wallace. I'm the president here." He says holding out my hand.
"How do you know my name?" I ask
"Your people told me." He says.
"What are we doing here?" I run my fingers through my hair.
"We saved you. After those barbarians attacked you." He says.
"I wasn't there for the grounder attack Monty and I were hit in the head before they attacked." I stand up.
"Please sit back down. You had a panic attack we are working on meds for it." The doctor says. I sit on the bed again.
"Yes we did hit you over the head. But we knew you wouldn't go willingly." He says.
"Damn right. I need to go back to my people." I start to get up again.
"We have search teams looking for any survivors. So far we have found no one." He looks down.
"Please I'm more trouble than it's worth let me out I'm claustrophobic I won't be able to make it here." I plead.
"How did you make it on the ark my dear?" He looks eager to know.
"We had a simulator type thing on the ark. Little knee about it. Only councilmen and mechanics new about it. I've always been claustrophobic so my father would take me there and I would be on the ground. It would feel like I had open space. That's how I stayed sane on the ark. Now please let me out." I plead again.
"We'll figure something out to control your claustrophobia. But right now get back to your room and enjoy your friend." He stands up and walks away.
The doctor gives me my pills and someone escorts me to a room with many bunk beds. My people are here.
"How many of us made it?" I ask Ana.
"48." She says smiling.
"There was 82 of us when I left. That means 34 of us could still be out there."
"Or they could be dead." She says. "It's time for dinner."
"I'm not hungry. I'm just gonna rest." I say. I lay down on a bed.
"Suit yourself." She shrugs and walks away.
I look around. We can't have lost 34 people. We are stronger than that.
I hear alarms going off I run to the dinning hall.
I see Clarke. She is holding a girl with glass close to her neck.
"Clarke no." I say.
The girl runs off.
"Athena?" She runs to me. "Athena you made it."
I look down at her arm. "Clarke you're bleeding. Go to the medical wing. I'll take you."
"No I need to get out of here." She says.
Guards come and take her away.
I go to where the others are. They are showing us a map and explaining the rules. Soon Clarke comes and everyone hugs her.
"I don't trust them." She says.
"I don't either." I say.
Everyone doesn't agree.
We go back to the room. I lay down and close my eyes. Soon I fall asleep.
