" OCTAVIA!" Bellamy screamed from behind the oak doors just as she began to eat her meal surrounded by her advisors in her chambers. In attempt to ignore his screeches, she continued to break bread and say sacred words," MOVE THE FUCK OUT OF MY WAY!" His voice is heard over the prayers and Indra's eyes wander to Octavia's who seems unfazed by the commotion outside the door; Indra on the other hand, seems worried. Seconds later, the double doors burst open and smack against the wall on either of its sides and all eyes are on a sweaty Bellamy and a not-so-successful guard. " I'm sorry Heda-" he mutters but she cuts him off almost immediately. She stands to face her brother, the only one who she wishes acceptance from," Leave us." Her cold eyes stare straight through him, like he's a ghost of the past haunting her present; everyone leaves abruptly with Indra closing doors behind her," Sit." She says as she takes a seat at the table but his eyes burn holes in the back of her head. However, he sits." Your angry, I understand that-"
" Don't even start O." He cuts her off, not caring that she's Blood whatever-they-call -her. " She's a traitor Bellamy. She murdered-"
" We." She stares him down," Murdered"
" Say it loader and I might have to put you two in the arena." She states.
" I said, we killed her." He repeats, more sternly and she rolls her eyes.
" You have a thing for people who want me dead." She takes a sip of her water, changing the topic- she wouldn't put him in there and he knows it
" Clarke doesn't want you dead and you know that O. But when you sacrifice Madi's life what did you expect from her."
" Oh I expect it from her but not from my own brother just because your in love with a traitor." He ignores her comment, not knowing how to react," She'll be executed at dawn and that's final." Bellamy stands in annoyance, Octavia joins him but faces towards him. Reaching out to touch his face he steps back," I'm protecting you." She tells him," She's back in our lives and your already killing people-"
" I'm killing people? I'm trying to stop a war O! While your playing last man standing in bloodsports."
" I could have your head for the way your-"
" Cut the crap Octavia!" He loses his temper and a guard walks in checking to make sure everything's okay."Heda?" He questions with flickering eyes between them. She sighs, "Don't come in unless I say so." She answers sharply then he leaves, leaving them to arguing. " I can't let you kill her O." Bellamy demands," You kill her and I leave and you'll never see me again, I'll take Madi and leave." He warns; Octavia laughs.
"Madi is my second and she answers to me. Not even mentioning that I'm basically her hero; did Clarke tell you I'm her favorite from the stories she told her." O beams
" You mean the same woman your about to murder. Madi will hate you. Indra will be disappointed; just like mom if you do this." He says with fearful eyes.
" You don't speak about her." For a second Bellamy doesn't answer," You call me the monster but yet here you are. Standing before me, begging for her life while pretending to love a spy. Your the monster, your the one leading Echo on just to hide how you feel about her." Octavia says aggressively, like usual.
" The old Octavia, would understand. She knew what love was-"
" She died when Lincoln did and I remember you being a part of that." Octavia answers darkly, feeling a familiar feeling of suffocation in her throat." And i'll die if she does." He slips but Bellamy doesn't regret it." Bellamy-"
" What would he say now? About the person you've become."
" He would understand. He was the only one, who ever understood."
" If you kill her, i swear to you that you'll never see me again. You won't hear from me or Madi because I will take her away from you and raise her myself. Don't push me." Octavia sits down while Bellamy stands at the door, she isn't facing him.
" I can't change my mind. I refuse to have my people see me as weak, even for you." She says, closing her eyes and allowing a tear to fall- only as he can't see," I'm sorry."
Closing his eyes in despair he bites his lip before answering," You know, for the first time in my life, you've officially broke me and you might be right about how I feel but it makes it worse that your gonna kill her anyways." A tear slips for them both.

Bellamy leaves Octavia alone in the tent and he goes straight to Clarke's and begins packing her things up. He packs lightly and when Monte shouts him over he ignores him, but Miller grabs his attention. When he's nearby, alone and painted in Octavia's armory he pulls him to the side, out of ear sight from everyone else. " What the hell were you and Clarke thinking." Miller states, clearly frustrated about the situation," Look," he states," I'm sorry about Clarke Bellamy I really am. And I was one of the hundred first. You's kept me alive and-"
" You ready to make up for it or what?" Bellamy butts in and he nods," Then get my rover ready and keep quiet- the less you know the better." He says and Miller nods eagerly.
