Beautiful Disaster

One Hundred-seven

Clarke POV

"What do you mean its over?" Murphy asks as he grabs ropes, and other materials to use to tie Kayleigh down.

"She's brain dead." I tell them clicking thr flashlight off. "She can't give us the kill code."

"Okay, so why not put it in Kayleigh? Use the emp or whatever, fry her chip then give her the flame."

"We can't give her the flame." Bellamy growls as he moves to help Murphy tie Kayleigh to the chair. "We don't know how the flame will react to the baby.. it could kill it." Bellamy says when Murphy shoots him a look.

"I'm sorry but we don't have any other choices." He says after Kayleighs been fully retrained.

"We're not giving her the flame." Bellamy says intensely

"And we're talking about the fate of the whole world.. I care about Kayleigh, you know that," John says licking his lips, "but this is about survival, when this is over you can always make another one."

"No." I say stepping in between them when Bellamy goes to lunge at Murphy. "Bellamys right, we can't give Kayleigh the flame."

"Clarke, you said yourself Ontari is braindead we need a nightblood to beat ALIE."

"If we use the emp on Kayleigh and the shock alone doesn't cause her to have a miscarriage, the flame could possibly do the job itself." Bellamy tenses more behind me, so I tighten my grip on his arm. "If the baby isn't a nightblood the flame will kill it, for as far along as she is, it makes it more dangerous."

"How so?"

"She could bleed out for one thing. I have no medical equipment here to stop that from happening. She'd die shortly after from the blood loss alone." Murphys face completely leeches of color, his eyes widening at my words

It was a 50/50 chance of it working, and if it didn't, we'd be wasting the last emp we had, and ALIE would still win.

"Fuck.. so what do we do?"

"Where are the others?" I ask looking to Bell

"On their way here."

"Find them and then we need to secure this level.. We need everyone not chipped here."

"You've got a plan?"

"I might." It was a long shot, but it could work. "I'm not giving Kayleigh the flame." I promise him when he glares down at me.

"All right," he says begrudgingly looking over to Murphy. "Let's go."

Together they grabbed ahold of Jaha taking him from the throne room, closing the doors behind them leaving me with my mother and Kayleigh.

Grabbing the emp I walk over to the stairs to Lexa's throne where my mother's body still lays. Connecting the wrist band to her, I use the last emp. For my plan to work, I was going to need her. Her body once still, jerks as she let's out a pain filled scream, as the chip disconnects.

"Mom..." I call out to her, my voice wobbling, "Can you hear me? I know you're in there. Come back to me." I cry. "I need you."

Slowly her eyes flutter open, gone is the vacant blank stare.

A small laugh of relief escapes, when her expressive brown eyes look at me.

"Hi." I same lamely with a smile. "You're okay, you're okay." Mom immediately starts crying. "No, no, no."

"I'm sorry." She chokes out, her eyes wandering down to the marks on my chest. "I'm so sorry." She cries, hand covering her mouth

"It's okay." I tell her again, holding onto her as we both cry. "It wasn't you."
