The next thing Clarke saw was her being thrown into a room. It was small and very little light. The walls were stone. She tapped the walls waiting if anyone would come. A man walked in. He was dressed nicer than the rest. "Hello." He greeted Clarke. "I am Cage, the king of Azgeda."
"Well I see you have suffered much without Roan." Clarke kicked the ground causing dust to fly.
"Once Lexa died, there was not much for us to do, that was our main priority." Cage smiled. "But you, Commander, made that easy for us."
"Are you implying I killed Lexa?" Clarkes voice got loader. Two Azgeda warriors showed up behind Cage.
"Of course not, Commander. It's just I thought that would mean peace, but your people have killed some of mine. Which does does not mean anything good."
"We can make a treaty." Clarkes said. "I want out of here, me and the others you took."
Cage laughed. "See me and Roan are different, he wanted to go against Lexa and not have anything of hers, but I on the other hand. I want Polis, I want to rule everyone."
"No." Clarke said firmly. "You wish to be a ruler than you can keep ruling Azgeda, Polis won't harm you and you won't harm Polis."
Cage shook his head. "We aren't in Polis, so now you listen to me." Cage walked out of the room.
           Octavia ran to Polis. She entered the tower and went straight to the lab. Murphy and Raven were next to eachother laughing. "Help!" Octavia tried yelling, but she was out of breath. She tried running but tripped and fell on the floor.
           They rushed to her. Raven tilted Octavia's head up. "What's wrong? What happened?" She asked.
            Octavia was shacking. "They took Madi." She whispered. Murphy and Raven looked at each other . Raven started to cry.
             "Murphy go get guards we are leaving!" She cried out. Once Murphy left, she cradled Octavia giving her water.
              Madi was in a room alone aswell. Except, no one came in her room. She pulled out the knife and started carving into the walls. She noticed that some of them were like sand. She was able to carve a hole looking in the next room. She looked in it, Bellamy was lying on the ground. "Bellamy!" She whispered.
               Bellamy looked at the wall, than noticed the small hole. He ran up to it. "Madi!" He was shocked. "Your here? Is Octavia here too?" He asked.
                "No." Madi replied. "She ran away before I did."
                "Say? How did you carve this hole?" Bellamy smiled. Madi held up his knife. "Let me see that. I have an idea." Madi shoved it through the hole. "Now you must stay here until ether I or Clarke come get you." Madi nodded.
                Bellamy was able to riddle his door open. He left down the halls in search of Clarke. Everytime someone walked in the hall he would have to hide. He looked in every room and then he found Clarke. She was hitting the walls over and over again. He opened the door. She turned around to him and smiled.
                The two ran into each others arms. "Your okay." Bellamy laughed while holding her hair in one hand then having his other arm around her back. They released eachother.
"Madi. They...they..." Clarke stuttered to talk.
"I know where she is." Bellamy held Clarkes hand. Clarke smiled and put her his hands to her heart. Bellamy and Clarke ran out back to Madis cell room. Bellamy busted the door. Madi ran to Clarke wrapping her arms around her almost causing Clarke to fall.
"We need to leave." Clarke demanded. Bellamy was about to leave the room before he heard gun shots. He made Madi and Clarke stay behind him. The noise got closer to the room. Octavia entered.
"Their in here!" Octavia yelled down the hall. They all heard someone running down the hall. Raven ran in going to Madi. Octavia looked at Bellamy and Clarke, than at Madi and Raven. Guards escorted them out of the den.
Raven stayed next to Madi the whole way back to Polis. "She's more of a mother than I am." Clarke said to Bellamy as they walked a few feet behind Raven. Bellamy turned. "She's always been there and gave her everything. I." Clarke wiped her face. "I haven't."
Bellamy grabbed Clarke hand. He didn't say anything, he just gave her a look, a familiar one. The one he gave her when they ran back to the dropship from the bank, when they walked back from Finns death, when they entered the ark, or when they did anything together.
                Back at Polis, Clarke was stressed. Villagers started to catch on that she had been missing here and there. Bellamy walked in to her pacing around the room. "Ugh." She slammed her hand against a pillow.
                 "Hey, Hey." Bellamy put his hand on the side of her face. She was on the verge of crying.
                 "Everyone is counting on me, they all look up to me. I need to be this great leader, but I'm so empty and alone." Clarke turned to the window and shook her head.
                 Bellamy followed her. "Sit down." He commanded. Clarke sat on the bed waiting for him to talk. He grabbed her hands and kneeled down infront of her. "When i saw you at the river, you were peaceful and beautiful. When people started to attack, I thought of running for my own life, but then I saw you struggling to get up. I helped you out and we made it together."
                   Bellamy emphasized the word together. He continued. "Once we first came to Polis we came together. And when Finn died, we came back together. Going to Polis we went together." Bellamy started to smile. "Now don't you damn think your alone, because Clarke Griffin, when I throw a guard stick at a girls leg who then has to shock her heart rate back to normal, that is the kind of girl I love."
                     Clarke laughed while still holding Bellamys hands. "And I love a guy who everyone wanted to kill when they came to Earth." They both laughed.
                 "Clarke Griffin." Bellamy began still kneeling to Clarke. Clarke looked down. "I thought you were a bitch when I first met you, but now I can't think of a life without you." Clarke smiled. "Would you do me the honors of calling me your husband?" Clarke jumped off the bed.
                 "Yes! Yes! A thousand times yes!" Clarke hugged Bellamy as he swung her around. Clarke looked in his eyes then kissed him. All the life she thought she lost was refilled.
