Clarke's POV
I sat up and looked around, I was alone. No one else was awake. What was going on? I heard a noice and saw another chamber opening. It was Bellamy. He seemed just as confused as I was and that wasn't helped by the kid that spoke to us. He seemed familiar but I didn't know him.
Jordan Green. I hoped he would live up to his name it belonged to two of the biggest jokers I'd ever met but they were good guys.Bell, Jordan and I watched the video from his parents. So they hadn't gone to sleep. I understood why. Maybe if I could've had that kind of life with someone I would've chosen to do the same. They looked at peace, something I'd never really seen. I was going to miss them both but I looked forward to getting to know their son. Before we woke the others up, the three of us decided we'd check the planet was habitable. There was no point waking everyone up just to put them back to sleep and as much as I trusted Monty and Harper I still had to make sure. Before we left we decided to have something to eat. Not eating for over a hundred years kinda makes you a little hungry.
Jordan and Bell put something together while I pondered my thoughts. I thought about how many people we'd lost to get to where we were. Friends, family, acquaintances. Just as I was getting to asking myself if it was worth it, a package was dropped in front of me. I looked up and Bellamy was still over the other side of the room, dancing to some music the kid had found. I turned to the side and the child himself was there. He was still beaming at me. The poor guy would have to work on his social skills. I looked at the thing sat in front of me again.
"What is this?"
"It's from dad. He never told me what it was but he said to give it to you and only you."
"Are you sure?"
"Definitely." Then he just walked. Leaving me to open it. I opened the letter first.
'Clarke,
I'm glad you're awake and I hope you'll look after my son for me. I took as page from your book, as I said in the video. I've had a lot of time to think about our past and honestly, we messed up a lot. Being the person I am I took to creating a way to fix that. I thought I'd try and create a time machine and I may have actually done it. I could've chosen anymore but I chose you because you have the courage and ability to do something about it. I'm not sure exactly what you need to change but you'll figure it out. Watch out for the butterfly effect, even the smallest change can cause a ripple effect. You can do this Clarke, I believe in you. Good luck, hopefully I'll get to see you soon.
Monty

What on Earth (or wherever) was he on about? Time travel? See him again? This must've been some kind of joke. I mean considering we were on another planet I suppose nothing was impossible but still. This was crazy. I had some hope but only a little as I was prying the box open.Inside sat what looked like a watch. It was the band of my fathers watch, funny how that survived. The face had been taken off and placed in the corner on the box. As I inspected the device further I saw that there were indeed loads of little boxes for date and time and such. This was either a prank or would actually work. I wanted to believe it but I wasn't sure if I could. So instead I put it on my wrist and decided I'd figure it out once my feet were on the new planet.
It was beautiful. Once I got past the initial shock of being on a new planet I couldn't get past the preposition of seeing this with the others. Not just the ones on the ship but Lincoln, Anya, Aden, Harper, Fox, Monty, Jasper, Maya...Lexa and so many more. What if this thing worked and I could see them again? I had to try. I had to take the risk and so I did.
