"I wanted to see you about the bunker" Athena rose from her desk.
Raven struggled against the handcuffs that where tightened around her.
"And so I'm handcuffed now ??" Raven questioned .
Athena stood closer to her and looked towards the guards.
"That was precautions , Marcus made sure for that " she looked over at her guards and nodded. "Let her go and leave us " Athena ordered as the guards walked out .
"I need you to tell me everything you know about the bunker right now " Athena said almost in a panic.
"You said there was army was you bluffing ?"
She asked.
Raven shook her head.
"An army bigger than our army we have on this ship ?" She asked.
Raven nodded her head.
"We have a sleeping army , one I didn't want to wake this soon , Marcus is in contact with another ship with them on " she muffled to herself " we will be able to fight them if they wish to ...
Raven was confused
"Wait what are you saying ? That your going to start a war? ..a war because your scared of loosing , scared you lost .."
Athena clenched her firsts.
"Leaders make decisions with there heads than there hearts ..."
Athena argued .
Raven coughed .
"Heard that before and it didn't go well"
Athena striked a serious look at Raven.
"You don't know me well enough Raven , but I know you well enough "
Athena sat down .
Raven began listening
"Enough to know the suffering you endured , enough to know how talented you are and how talented you could be if you joined us , enough to know that you host a connection with Becca , enough to know that your signals really did reach us Raven .. yes for years you hid from the one you love that you had a working radio , you didn't know it worked but the signals we picked up because you had fixed it unintentionally ,we heard the cried out to the spacekru it's how we found them , and we heard there signals but signals never hit back , it hit our ship ,our high tech communication and so we could piece together the whole story , a story of a girl Raven , the story of the wanheda and the commander , the story of you guys which we call grounders and most importantly we learned how we were not the only ones "
Raven stood there in shock. All this time she never knew they could here her broadcasts when she had tried to contact Bellamy in space .
"If you knew all this then why start a war , why not help and how do you know about becca"Athena rubbed her hair.
"Because I'm doing what's right for my people ....and you forget we are all leaders here " Athena says stressed .
Raven sits infront of Athenas desk.
"You still seemed to not tell me how you know about Becca " Raven asks.
Athena takes out a old book from her drawer and wipes it off.
"You won't leave me alone if I don't tell you so I'm just gonna tell you a straight , no fighting , no arguing just listening "
Raven nodded though she didn't know were this was ending.
"Becca was around the time we were on earth before the disaster , we lied about our origins this planet is our origins and Marcus has come back to take it as ours "
Raven didn't know how to register this information.
Should she believe Athena.
"You say Marcus wants to take the land back as his from us on the ground but don't you want the same ?" Raven questions .
Athena paused for a second .
"...I.. didn't know.. expect ..people to be here aswell Raven , it makes this harder for me aswell"
Raven knew somewhere in her Athena was good.
"Athena he's gonna take leadership , your not that old and your struggling " Raven said.
"Don't tell me what I already know" Athena says snapping back as she flips through the old book" this book has survived a long long time from our time , the title is Beccas handbook , her original notebook and I believe this should belong to you since your closer to knowing her studies than any of us , it was taken after her daughter unfortunately perished with the first radiation around our time and the book was taken by one of our guards , the guards assumed beccas daughter had died , they couldn't find her and becca kept her a secret for her own safety she had only hoped that she had been given a secret place on our ship but it was too late "
Raven felt herself tear up though she didn't know why , perhaps it was thinking about all those deaths or perhaps it was hearing how lucky she was.
"What was the real reason you called me here "
Raven asks.
Athena confused stares at her blankly.
"To give you this book to show my mercy and to ask for your help on the bunker "
Raven shook her head.
"The real reason you captured me , to use me "
Athena handed the book to Raven .
"My original intentions have changed , I have grown warmer to you , your not a threat ..."
Athena added.
"And that means " Raven adds
Athena got up and looked around the room.
"Marcus and I originally had planned to start living on earth with the elgius prisoners but we took an interest in something else , Becca herself especially after we had got hold of that book , Marcus had been reading on it and found something quite spectacular , something's Becca took to her grave"
Raven had a brief glimpse.
A brief instinct , of course Marcus must of required the book before her saw beccas daughter perish.
"Marcus was the young soldier who found Beccas daughter and the book wasn't he ... why did he age and you...
Athena frowned.
"He chose to stay alive during the time we travelled , I too was not elected to lead , I was frozen for some time before the higher people where woken , Marcus had helped pilot the ship and had stayed alive incase the older people supporting the ship had perished and of course he spent his time planning this "
Raven sighed.
"Whatever Becca took to the grave , Marcus must of had an interest and you too so I don't understand how I am needed ?"
Athena looked Raven dead in the eyes full of hurt.
"I'm not interested in it no more, not after learning the damage but what can I do I lead a ship full of prisoners my death would be round the corner "
Athena said with a gulp trying to act hard .
"What is it that's so bad in Beccas grave ?"
Raven asked .
Athena looked up.
"I know I've lied about a lot of things , it was Marcus plan to lie to make you accept us but the fact we are not part of the ark is true and come from present is correct ..... " Athena looked at Raven worriedly " there's alot of things becca took to her grave , things she didn't want people getting , inventions and one of them happens to be a few more chips , other stuff Marcus failed to mention but he wants the chips they can control a whole army to whoevers command ... I don't want an army "
"But he does " Raven adds " you can't let him ... I .. how am I involved "
Athena held Ravens hand .
"Raven your the key , you see the tomb of becca is in the bunker in a locked up place with a key , the only reason we took your friends on board was to build our army and to lead them to you , we planned this .. we needed a way In and you would Agree to us if we helped you dig the bunker out , we didn't know about the army but Marcus wants those chips and the only way in to the lock is a code only becca would know "
Raven looked disappointed .
"I don't have .. I haven't had a connection with Becca in years ..."
Raven added .
Athena gulped.
"Marcus wanted a lot of options .. he wanted Madi , she's a pure nightblood and he wanted to test the chances of a nightblood opening it , but really he needed her daughter he's always gone on about how he should of saved her "
Raven was so confused . Why was Marcus so Interested in beccas daughter?
"So how old was Marcus "
Athena thought for a moment
"I was 18 , Marcus was 25 and I was frozen for some time , Marcus was 33 when I awoke and I was still 18 and then I had been selected to lead , Marcus is 39 now and I'm 24 "
So Marcus planned this for so long Raven thought .
She knew she didn't trust him.
She needed to get Athena on her side ."Raven I really didn't want you to be captured after you had helped me realise my ways , you weakened me but made me realise Marcus ways and I need your help .. we have to open the bunker .. your people will be freed but Marcus will want you , he knows little about what the key is to opening the tomb but you might "
Athena said.
"Honestly I don't ... do you not want to kill him already "
Raven asks.
"Killing him will set his army he leads on me , you and your people and I'm the only one with power right now to stop that .. "
Raven started to question wether this was a trap.
She had learnt too much .
"How do I know if your lying to me ? Why open up about all this Athena ? Why me ? " Raven asks.
Athena looks as if she's trying to hold a tear back.
"Because I've relaised I'm being overthrown , Cassie has noticed , you have , and I've realised I cannot lead .. I cannot lead no longer so I need your help to take down Marcus and join forces with me ..."
Athena asks.
"I need to know your being truthfully Athena we will see..."
There was a knock at the door.
"Hello Athena " a familiar voice stood at the door.
"Raven " The man said
"Oh Raven " another voice adds.
"Echo?, Bellamy " Raven asks "why are you still here ?"
They both smile towards Athena and Raven turns towards her grinning whilst shrugging.
"Couldn't leave our mechanic without some help to finish this shit " Bellamy says.
******clarke and company continue travelling .5 years before .
On the ship.
"You would think your An alternate becca , the way you describe everything she did for your world in present time " Murphy adds . Cassie shrugs .
"Whats that suppose to mean ?" Emori asks laughing alongside Murphy .
Cassie smiled vaguely .
"I guess some things should be kept till death ..unless it's needed " Cassie continued.
Both Murphy and Emori stopped laughing . Murphy got the attention of his baby son who was crying .
"Shhhh" he said soothingly .
"Any update in when we're gonna be able to leave ?" Murphy adds
Cassie shakes her head.
"Yunno I'm meant to not be down here at the security base , they would kill me if they found me meddling with you guys ... I just I need to know about the one you call Raven "
Cassie asks.
Murphy feels a pain of guilt hearing that name .
"The mechanic , Raven Reyes the one who perished alongside others after she took her calming lover along with her ?"Murphy added.
Emori gave him an stern look.
"Ok maybe she was pretty awesome , ok what story you wanna know about her , the girl who went through so much and still kept Standi...."
"She's alive Murphy " Cassie cut him off.
"......woah okay then did not expect that " he said handing his child other to Emori who comforted him.
"And you know this because " he said.
"The leadership here has picked up many of her broadcasts up from Earth , though I shouldn't be telling you because they want you not to know .. not to know yet anyway "
Emori took a worried look to Murphy .
"What is it you want to know about Reyes ?"Murphy added"Just how close was she to ... commander Becca "
"Becca pramheda" Emori repeated .. "the first commander"
"Yes" Cassie replied "Becca pramheda , my mother "
*****
"So you see Clarke we definitely can trust Cassie , she's been in hiding this whole time ... people thought she died alongside everyone but she managed to sneak on the ship with a new identity " Monty added.
"We need to get supplies , we need to get her to work with us and get to that bunker " Murphy added.
"I'm not letting the kids get involved with this ..I can't ... " Clarke added .
"Murphy Emori plans changed ... you take the kids to a safe place , Luna , Monty Harper we're going to find and hunt Cassie , I need to know we can trust her to send an inside message to Bellamy and Raven ... and as for the bunker we will get down there "
Monty looks worried .
"We need to get to the bunker quick before Marcus "
He adds
"Marcus is the army leader and his plan is to open up Beccas tomb , she took something to the grave her wants and she's buried in the bunker ... that's why they have raven she's the key .."
Monty adds
Clarke and Luna look at eachother confused but Luna rages.
"Not over my dead body "
"My Raven is coming back to me there's not denying that"
Clarke rubs her head .
"This is so much to deal with ... okay let's just get this shit done then team ! "
And with that they departed there separate ways .
Emori and Murphy marched on , Emori holding Madis hand and Murphy holding his son in his arms as they travelled towards the lab that was previous lived in by Luna and Raven.Clarke , Luna , Monty and Harper all marched on towards the green land of Eden in which they hoped to Track down "Cassie " the so called daughter of pramheda .
