Saviour - Bellamy Blake

Hanging - part 6

Amongst the chaos that now surrounded camp, Brooklyn had made her way to Murphy protectively putting her arms around him to stop the camp members yelling "he didn't do it, stop please stop this". It didn't work as she was grabbed by some other campers and pushed to the ground, caught up in the moment some members started to punch and kick at Brooklyn. Much to their dismay an injured Brooklyn stood up pushing at them yelling at them to stand back. Bellamy had come over seeing Brooklyn bleeding at her mouth, he pulled her back towards him. The crowd had started to create a noose for Murphy, a look of horror flushed through Brooklyn. She tried to move forward already weak Bellamy easily overpowered her holding her back. "he's innocent" she yelled "I know" Bellamy muttered to her, grabbing her hands while she struggled to get free.

Everything stopped as Murphy had his neck in the noose standing on the crate. "you can stop this" Clarke yelled to Bellamy "stop this, you started this princess" Bellamy retorted. Then things got worse, as the crowd encouraged Bellamy "you should kick the crate Bellamy" than they started chanting his name. Bellamy stepped forward, Brooklyn began to tug at him in an attempt to pull him back and stop him. He pushed her out of the way, clearly distracted as he pushed too hard and she was already weak. Brooklyn fell to the ground a look of shock on Bellamy's face at what had done only to harden as he stepped forward kicking the box from under Murphy. Octavia and Clarke made attempts to get to Murphy to save him, but the crowd were to powerful. As Brooklyn got up and saw Murphy struggling for air she saw Bellamy watching her even more guilty than before.

Then a voice broke out from the chaos "stop it, Murphy didn't kill Wells" the girl Charlotte yelled "Charlotte get back" Bellamy warned but she continued "I did". Shock fell over the crowd, Brooklyn took advantage of this grabbing Bellamy's axe from his pants and chopping the rope to save Murphy. As he fell he gasped for air, taking in as much oxygen he could. Brooklyn rushed to him, holding him as he coughed. He stood up slowly seeing that everyone had gone into the tent including the girl that was the reason for his hanging. "Bellamy bring out the girl" Murphy yelled. Brooklyn went around the side sneaking into the tent. "look at what you've all done. This isn't going to resolve easily" Brooklyn said announcing her existence. Bellamy looked to the girl, "brookly-" "stop, not now you've done enough" Brooklyn snapped. "Murphy is out there wanting revenge. I don't agree with what you did to him, but I don't agree with revenge on Charlotte either". Bellamy looked to Charlotte after looking at Brooklyn probably a bit too long.

"Charlotte what happened, why would you do that" Bellamy questioned.

"I was trying to slay my demons, like you said". Bellamy's eyes widened at this "that's not what I meant Charlotte"

"Bellamy what is she talking about" Clarke pushed.

"she misunderstood what I said" Bellamy responded.

"Bullshit, Bellamy. Charlotte is old enough to understand, killing someone is so different then slaying demons" Brooklyn said.

"we need to save her anyway; Clarke Finn take Charlotte ill deal with Murphy" Bellamy planned.

Bellamy walked out of the tent Brooklyn following close behind as he confronted an angry looking Murphy. "its over Murphy" Bellamy claimed. Murphy seemed to not understand this as he backed away and Bellamy turned around until Murphy chases him back hitting him unconscious with a wooden log.

Bellamy fell to the ground. Brooklyn looks to Murphy an evil look spread across his face, he wanted revenge.

Brooklyn stood there now alone facing an angry mob. "Murphy come on you know this isn't right but you don't need to do this" Brooklyn pleaded.

"Wow I didn't expect this from you Brooklyn, I thought we understood each other" Murphy spat. He walked over to her evilly, belittling her as he walked. He reached her and as he did, Brooklyn punched him in the face immediately Murphy reacted punching her back. He punched too hard out of his anger leaving her unconscious on the ground next to Bellamy.

Bellamy slowly came out of a daze, only to see an unconscious Brooklyn laying next to him. "Brooklyn" he muttered, pulling her into his lap slowly waking her up. She rolled around a bit but eventually coming into consciousness. Groaning she sat up staring at Bellamy.

"come on, he isn't getting away with this. Its personal now" Brooklyn stated, before the two trekked in the direction that charlotte had gone and where they could here Murphy yelling out threateningly for Charlotte.
