Oso Gonplei Nou ste odon (Our fight is not over)

Chapter 1

Jasper was watching Madi sleep once again. He was glad to see her sleeping soundly. After Clarke's death Madi hadn't slept peacefully for almost 2 years.

Jasper found it hard to believe that it had been over 3 years since Clarke had died. He had never fully forgiven Clarke for mount weather but he had to admit that he did appreciate her saving his life and that for a small while the prospect of him, Clarke, Madi and Maya being a small family didn't seem so bad.

Clarke was out hunting and she'd gotten caught in a sand storm, she'd been running to get back to them and had tumbled off a cliff and fell to her death. Maya on the other hand was just over 3 when Clarke died and stopped asking for her after a few weeks.

Jasper usually had Maya sleeping by his side but that night she'd insisted that she was a big girl and could sleep on top of the rover alone so Jasper had allowed her knowing that there was nobody there besides them anyway.

"Jasper? Do you ever sleep?" Madi asked as she rubbed her eyes sleepily and looked up at him.

"Probably not as much as I should. Don't worry about it, kid" Jasper replied giving the young girl a small smile.

"Tell me a story?" Madi said as she moved next to him. "I think I've told you all my stories"

"Tell me about Octavia again! Please" Madi begged giving Jasper puppy eyes.

"Okay" Jasper sighed then he put an arm around Madi's shoulders and began his story.

"The ark had a one child rule. Nobody could have more than one baby. Octavia was never meant to be born, her mom already had a son, Bellamy. Octavia's mother decided to have the baby and keep her a secret so whenever there would be inspections they would hide Octavia under the floor"

"They really loved her" Madi beamed.

"Octavia was found by the guards when she was 16 and locked up for a year. One day the guards entered herself and took her to a dropship where she along with 99 other prisoners and her older brother were sent to the ground. Octavia reunited with her brother on the dropship and he allowed her to be the first person to walk the earth in 100 years. She stepped outside took a few steps before jumping onto the ground and yelling at the top her lungs"

"We're back bitches" Madi and Jasper said in unison. Jasper grinned at Madi who grinned back at him.

"On the ground she made friends: Clarke Griffin, the princess. Finn Collins, the spacewalker. Jasper Jordan, the handsome prince and Monty Green the geek" Jasper continued.

"Handsome prince?" Madi laughed. "You want this story or not?" Jasper retorted with a slight smirk on his face.

"Sorry but I've seen what you looked like to start with and you were more of a geek than Monty, goggles" Madi teased.

Jasper smiled and glanced at Clarke's sketchbook.

They didn't have many possessions but one of their most important ones was Clarke's sketchbook. She'd drawn many pictures that meant so much to them all especially Jasper. She had old pictures of Finn, Raven, Octavia, Bellamy and Monty. Newer pictures of a young Madi and a baby Maya. Sketches of the Ark, the dropship and mount weather. She'd even drawn Jasper a picture of his Maya, that was his favourite one.

"I look through it a lot too. I caught Maya glancing at pictures of Finn and Bellamy, I'm pretty sure she's got a crush on Finn. How do you tell a 6 year old she can't crush on a dead guy?" Madi said trying to make a joke out of it.

"Finn was one of my first friends on the ground. A damn good one he was too" Jasper reminisced.

"He'll be watching over you. They all will be" Madi told Jasper trying to offer him a little comfort.

"Yeah... shall I back to the story?" Jasper asked Madi sensing that if they kept talking about his old friends they would both get emotional.

Madi nodded.

"They went on an adventure to find food and water. On the way there Octavia found a river and jumped straight in she was attacked by a big water snake and bit in the leg, the handsome prince ran forward and pulled her out of the water and she hugged him gratefully glad that he had saved her life. As they continued their adventure they reached another river they had no vote so the handsome prince suggested they swing across using vines. Spacewalker was supposed to go first but the prince decided he wanted to go first and Spacewalker let him. The prince swung across and landed on the other side. He found a sign that said Mount Weather the place they were headed he held it up to show his new friends and just as the princess was about to join him a spear came out of nowhere and struck him in the chest"

"Maybe you could be a knight" Madi suggested. "Because your brave. You know knights are brave it would make sense"

"A knight? Sure why not" Jasper said and just as he was about to continue they could hear Maya screaming.

Jasper ran out of the rover almost immediately and scrabbled up to the top to reach the little girl.

"Look. They are here!" Maya exclaimed pointing up to a ship in the sky.

Jasper felt a large grin spread across his face. Finally he would be reunited with his best friend.

"Jasper, i thought you said the ship was small" Madi said as she climbed up to join them.

"It is" Jasper mumbled before grabbing his gun and using the scope to look at the ship he was able to make out two words 'Eligius Corporation'

"Jok" Jasper muttered. "What's wrong, nontu?" Maya asked tugging at his sleeve.

Jasper remembered the first time Maya had called him Nontu, she was almost 2 and she had been playing with Jasper all day. Clarke had lifted her up so she could take her for a bath when Maya had wriggled her arms towards Jasper and cried 'Nontu'. Jasper wasn't even sure what it meant until Madi had heard Maya call him it and told him. Jasper asked Madi if she minded Maya calling him father and she had told him she didn't mind as Jasper would be the only father Maya would know.

"That is not my friends. We have to get out of sight now" Jasper told them and he took Maya's hand and grabbed his gun then climbed down.

Madi quickly climbed down after them. "Where will we go?" Madi asked as she began to panic.

"Arkadia. We can hide there for now" Jasper told Madi and he placed Maya in the back of the rover.

"Get in" Jasper instructed Madi who quickly obliged and got into the front. Jasper quickly glanced up at the ship that was near the ground then climbed into the rover and set off to Arkadia.
