"Move." Skylar demanded as she got tired of hearing Murphy's horrible attempts at getting the door open. He moved gesturing with his hand.

"Have at it Princess." He said sarcastically. She looked at him before she drop kicked the handle making it drop to the ground and push the door open.

"Hmm.. couldn't do that twenty four hours ago?" He asked as she rolled his eyes and she grabbed his hand. "We need to get Aden and Lincoln and get the hell out of here." Skylar declared as she rushed down the hall.

She walked into Aden's room seeing him frantically getting ready. "Skylar! I-i can't fight you in the conclave." Aden said as Skylar rushed to embrace him. Him in her arms just made her world center again. She pulled away. "You won't have to. We are leaving. Now." She stated as she looked to Murphy who nodded. "We need to find Lincoln."

She grabbed Aden's hand and rushed to her room to find Lincoln there with wide eyes. "Skylar why aren't you getting ready for the conclave. You need to win to bec-"

"Shut it Grounder and help me grab Sky's weapons." Murphy stated cutting Lincoln off as he and Aden helped Skylar grab her weapons.

"What-"

"Lincoln we are leaving. I am not-" Skylar was cut off this time as Titus walked in to the room. Aden tossed Skylar her sword who caught it and pointed it at Titus. "What? Come to finish the job?" She spat at Titus.

"No I am here to fulfill my vow to Lexa. Take these hoods and leave Polis." Titus said as he tossed her four hoods.

Skylar caught them and Murphy gladly took one as Titus walked away.

"No we need that Flame." Skylar stated as she looked at Lincoln. The horns went off again. "What is that?" Murphy asked.

"The victory horn." Lincoln stated with a confused face just as Skylar was. "Lets go." She said as she clasped the cloak around Aden and pulled up her own hood.

As she and her boys ran to the throne room a commotion was stirring as people yelled about who sounded the victory alarm. Just as she was going to move forward her arm was take and pressed into a hard body. "Shh sister." Roan warned her as she looked over to Aden taking him under her arm.

She looked at the throne to see Ontari. Her face covered in black blood. "What is the meaning of this?" Titus asked as he stood before the Nitblida.

Ontari leaned forward and lifted up a head. "Amaya!" Aden gasped as Skylar tried to step forward to slaughter Ontari for killing kids in such a cowardly way. "If she sees you she will kill you and your boys too." Roan advises his sister.

Aden watched as Ontari stepped on his friend's severed head. "I win." Ontari claimed. Roan grabbed his sisters arm and lead her out of the throne room.

Skylar made sure she hung on close to Aden and made sure her other two boys were close behind. "Slow down Roan. We need to talk to Titus." She stated  as they walked outside.

"Trust me Titus is on his knees in front of Ontari." Roan stated as he tried to lead her to safety. "No. There is no way he will support someone that hacked children's heads off in their sleep!" Skylar stated.

"Yeah well those children were gonna die anyway. You were gonna let a child take the throne." Roam declared and Skylar shook her head.

"You'll support her too. Won't you? She's ice nation right? What ever is best for your people?" Skylar asked harshly.

"Yeah kinda like killing every man woman and child in mount weather for Skaikru." Roan snapped. "That's not a bad point." Murphy said.

"Shut up, Murphy." Aden whispered.
