𝓣he ship shook violently as it broke the atmosphere. The eyes of the prisoner had stopped looking at Ark's princess, finally, as they were instead focused on the screens flashing Chancellor Jaha's message.

"Prisoners of The Ark, hear me now you've been given a second chance, and as your Chancellor, it is my hope that you see this as not just a chance for you, but a chance for all of us, indeed for mankind itself, we have no idea what is waiting for you down there. If the odds of survival were better, we would've sent others, frankly, we're sending you because your crimes have made you expendable" he spoke in his stern voice almost like he was discipling his children.

the words from the chancellor, a man that once told Anastasia she was the best thing on this ship, cut her deep. She knew the words were meant for the prisoners, but his eyes were looking at her, like he was confessing how he really felt about the girl.

Clarke was trying to get everybody to call down as the ship began to shake. Anastasia knew that Clarke would be a better leader, back on the Ark, Anastasia was sheltered and primed for the spot of chancellor, but she secretly hoped that when the day came the Ark would choose Clarke.

That was before Clarke was sent to jail, and most likely get floated. Clarke was stronger than Anastasia, she had a way of controlling people but she also managed to let her heart control sometimes. She never understood why the council chose her instead of Clarke for chancellor.

A sudden drop and pullback from the ship meant that the parachutes deployed but with the three floaters knocked around the ship they hit pipes and lines sending the ship into shock as the ship began yelling
