Mountains Shelter Secrets (Bellamy Blake x Reader)

XII - The Rubicon

"Bellamy is here," I repeated for the hundredth time, getting fed up.

Miller shook his head. "We've been locked up in here for hours. If it was Bellamy-"

"How the hell do you think I got back?" I snapped, keeping my voice low. "I'm telling you, he's going to radio Clarke and get us out of here."

"I believe you," Jasper said, putting a hand on my shoulder. "I saw him. Both of you."

Heat rose in my face. So he saw us kiss. "Thank you, Jasper."

Alarms blared, and the doors to the dorm flew open. Panic exploded in my chest of its own accord, only because I knew what that alarm meant. A bunch of guards with guns poured into the room, followed by Dr. Tsing. I positioned myself protectively in front of Monty and Jasper, hoping that if they came towards us, they'd take me instead of them. I'd done my job warning them. Now I had another: to protect them. I could fight them before they drilled into me.

Two of the guards went straight for Harper, and Monty screamed at them to let her go. I moved to pull her back, but Dr. Tsing told them to leave her.

"She needs more time to recover. Take him instead." Dr. Tsing pointed out someone I barely recognized and the guards dragged him out of the room in Harper's place.

"Stop!" Jasper cried. "You can't keep doing this to us!"

Dr. Tsing stepped toward Jasper, and I shifted my position a little to be ready to fight her if she tried to harm him.

"President Wallace said we could go," Jasper said, standing tall, but still shaking. I admired his courage.

Dr Tsing replied, "That President Wallace is no longer in command. He had to step down for health reasons. I'm sorry it has to be like this."

She paused, and gave us a cold smile. "I hope you know, you're all incredibly special to us."

I narrowed my eyes and fury flared inside of me. It took everything in me not to launch myself at her or one of the guards, just out of sheer rage. We were only special because pf our blood. Even when they all cleared out of the room, I was still blazing with anger. It was worse than I thought. I hoped Bellamy could talk to Clarke soon. In the meantime, we had to come up with some way to keep them from taking any more of us.

When the guards returned again a while later, we were ready for them. As the guards entered the room, I shouted at them to link up. Everyone in the room hooked their arms together creating a barricade. If they tried to take one of us, we wouldn't make it easy. It didn't work out as well as I thought it would. As soon as Dr. Tsing pointed out one girl to take away, all hell broke loose.

One of the guards rammed the butt of his gun into Monty's stomach. He stumbled backwards and the link between he and I broke apart. I resorted to fighting, throwing punches at any guard I could. One caught my wrist before my fist could connect with him and he twisted my arm behind my back.

"Hey let go of me!" I screamed, trying to fight him off as he shoved me towards I wall. I tried to grab onto the bars of one of the bunks to stop him, but my fingers slipped.

"Are you trying to get yourself killed, firecracker?" The guard muttered in my ear.

"Bellamy?" I was so relieved, I almost cried. But I kept my battle face on. "We're just-"

"Shut up and listen. They're killing them. Next time they come you have to fight back harder than this," Bellamy ordered. "I am not going to watch you die."

"You won't," I reassured him. "We're going to make them wish we'd never come to the ground."

Bellamy chuckled and shoved a gun into my hands. "Here. Take this. Get everyone ready."
