Grounder | An Anya Love Story

14

*Recap*

  "The Commander was my second I can get an audience and talk to her." She grabbed my hand and we started walking in the other direction before we heard gunshots. Then all I could feel was pain.

*Marias POV*

Everything was blurry. I knew I was still alive as Clarke was trying to stop the bleeding but there were to many. I got shot three time. Three. But some how I'm still alive. I can see Anya above me talking, but I can't quite her what she is saying. All I can tell is that its not English. She was yelling at Clarke as people were approaching us. Anya looked so scared. More then I've ever seen since I've known her. 

"Anya. Hey it will be ok. Clarke is good at this she will make sure I am ok." She looked at Clarke.

"You better keep her alive Clarke, or not only will you have me to worry about but also the Commander." Clarke sighed. 

"People are coming she is stable to move take her to your people and get her to a healer. Fast. I will distract the people who are coming." She stood up and started walking away before she turned and looked at us. Anya picked me up and started walking away. "May we meet again."

"May we meet again." Anya started to carry me away I watched Clarke walk in the opposite direction. To where I wasn't sure. "Where are we going?" Anya looked at me with a small smile. 

"To Heda, she will see you have the best recovery." She kept walking not saying anything after that. After about an hour or two of walking she asked the question I knew was going to come up eventually. "What happend between you and the Heda. I heard you call her by her name earlier to Clarke." 

"After you sent me off from the drop ship." I paused. "I was ridding for days, before I ran into Lexa in the woods, not knowing who she was. She read the letter and looked at my shoulder. After that she took me to Polis and I became her second. She taught me Trigedasleng and how to fight. And then one day I was sent on a hunting trip where the Mountain Men took me and I woke up in a strange room, and Clarke helped me out and well you were there for the rest." I finished me story and looked up at her. She was looking at me with a look I couldn't quite put my finger on. 

"Lexa isn't going to steal you away from me now is she?" I let out a loud laugh and kissed her. 

"Lexa could never steal me away from you." She smiled at me and then stopped outside of a city.

"Can you walk from here?" She asked me concerned. 

"Yeah, yeah I will be fine. Lets just get in there so I can lay down yeah?" She laughed at me and let me put most of my weight on her as she helped me into the grounder city. I was slowly getting light headed from the walk and zoned everything out trying to focus on staying upright, even though Anya was the only reason I was still upright. We were stopped about half way through the city and Anya was talking to someone and then I heard Lexa yelling as she pushed her way through the crowd. 

"Maria where have you been." She half yelled half asked me. I gave her a lopsided smile. 

"I told you she wasn't dead huh." My feet finally gave out from under me and I fell to the ground with Anya. 

"What happened to you!" Lexa turned around to yell at some people. Before turning back to me and looking you over taking in my inguries. "Who did this." She looked at Anya and back at me. Before her and Anya pulled me back up to my feet.

"Oh you know just some jackasses who are aloud to have gun." I laughed it off like it was nothing. "Clarke didn't get the bullets out before she left so we should go see someone so I can instruct them on how to do that before I lose anymore blood and pass out yeah?" Both of them started to rush through the crowd. Once they got me to the healers hut they set me down on the table. "Alright listen to me." I pulled the healer down to my level and looked him dead in the eye. "There are three bullets in me one in my right shoulder, one in my left thigh, and the other in my left hip." He nodded slowly. "You need to go into the wound with your fingers or something small to pull out the bullet dont be slow about it once you have the bullet rip it out then make the bleeding stop as fast as possible. I will get the one out of my thigh, you get the other two." The strange man nodded at me before getting a bowl of water and some rags. I turned to face the two women. "I need you both to hold me down and whatever you do. Do not kill him. This is going to hurt like a bitch." 

Before they could answer back I shoved my fingers into my thigh pulling out the bullet that barley didn't make it out. "Fuck." I gritted out. "Hand me that rag now." Lexa handed me the rag as I tied it around my leg. "Cool lets start the other two yeah." The two women held me still as the healer shoved his fingers into my shoulder ripping out the bullet. I let out a blood curling scream as he pulled it out then wrapping it up with the cloth. I sat there panting from the pain. "Alright we are doing good. Two down one to go." They reagusted their grip on me before the man shoved her fingers into my hip trying to find the third bullet. 

Before he got it out my world went dark.
