"Will you fight for Azgeda only? Or will you help save more?" Daenerys asked, and silence followed. The warriors stared, holding their weapons. One gave his fellow soldiers a quick glance before kneeling in front if her, sword on the ground. All the others followed, giving their Commander their allegiance.

"Rise. We need to save King Roan." She ordered and they walked beside her, forming her guard. They went down the tower, dashing in the room where the King had been left. There seemed to be commotion in that direction so they moved faster, reached the room, seeing Abby, Clarke and Octavia on their knees and Roan on a table. Echo raised her sword on Clarke but as she was about to lash out, a hand caught the blade and drops of black blood fell to the floor. Everyone froze, turning to the Commander, and Echo dropped her blade, looking at the soldiers who found their ways to the Commander. Though Daenerys didn't remain motionless. She walked to Roan and as she reached him, he coughed, coming back to life. Daenerys helped him up.

Roan looked at her, of course recognising Daenerys and noticed she wore the Commander's pin and had guards following her. "A lot has changed." He commented with his deep voice, holding his wounded side. Echo stared bluntly, glaring at Daenerys.

"My King." Echo started. "Polis is under Azgeda rule. Daenerys is our prisoner. Kill Wanheda, take her power, and rule. Kill Daenerys too-" Hardly had she spoken those words that Daenerys' guards drew their swords, surrounding her protectively. Roan stared at Echo and lifted his hand, which stopped her from saying another word. Daenerys just looked at Roan who looked back at her for a few long seconds.

"Daenerys is the Commander. I am a King. I must bow to her, and so should you." He told the Azgeda spy. Echo glared at Daenerys so hard, if her eyes were daggers, she'd probably be dead.

"Your war chiefs will never follow you." Echo announced despisingly.

"First, release Clarke Abby and Octavia." Daenerys told the Azgeda warriors and they did as told.

"Wait!" Echo exclaimed and the guards looked at the spy. "Azgeda has Polis under siege. We don't obey to anyone else than Azgeda." The warriors nodded and held the three women down.

"Roan, can't you say anything?" Daenerys pleaded but the King looked at her, silent.
"You coward." She spat and she watched as Roan ordered his guards to take all of Skaikru to lockup. Two guards walked to Daenerys. They hesitated, given they were dying to obey her and not Azgeda.
"It's ok. These are hard times. I will never punish you for this." She said softly and they gently took her to lockup. Roan hadn't missed a thing of the scene and was silent. He knew there was nothing he could do against a Commander especially not against Daenerys, recognised before she even was a Commander. He watched her walk in the corridor, the cape floating behind her with so much dignity and majesty.

"You did the right thing, m you King." Echo commented satisfied and Roan glared at her.

"Did I?" She looked at him and bowing, she left to see that the prisoners were all locked up.

Daenerys was the last to be lead inside but as she entered the cell, she saw Bellamy already chained to the wall. She ran to him and threw her arms around him while his found their way around her waist. His eyes closed in relief and so did hers. She took his face in her hands and their lips met before she walked to the chains assigned for her. The guards bowed before leaving and closed the door. Daenerys wasn't too far from Bellamy.

"Daeny, I'm so sorry..." he let's out, but she gave him a soft smile.

"You have nothing to be sorry for. These are dark times. We will find a way for you all to get out of this."

"I'm not leaving you." He protested but she looked him straight in the eyes.

"You'll have no choice. But I'll come and see you." She promised.
Clarke and Abby talked in the background but no one else dared. Daenerys was confident.

The metal door opened and guards Daenerys had never seen entered. They were tall, strong and fierce looking. Echo came in as well, speaking Trigedasleng.

"Take Daenerys!" She ordered, and evil smile on her face. They walked to the new Commander and broke her chains from the wall, pulling her violently.

"What are you doing?!" Bellamy shouted, pulling on his chains.

"It's okay, Bell. I love you." She said and knocked her out against he wall. Bellamy shouted in panick, s other did Octavia. The others were in shock. One of the grounders carried her out.

"Echo! Echo listen to me!" Bellamy tried. "If you hurt her I'll kill you!" He shouted and Echo flinched at the menace but walked on. They walked to the room in which Roan's throne was. Before they came in, one of the warriors threw water on her face, bringing her back. Daenerys brought her hand to her bloody forhead and stood up. "Thanks you for bringing me here." She said and before any of them could react, she had pulled one of their sword and swung it fast, killing both men. She then dropped the sword and turned to Echo.

"You don't wanna hurt me or try anything else." Echo stared at her and Daenerys pushed the doors open, under Roan's astonished glance. He saw his men on the floor and stood up. "I'm not gonna kill you Roan, that is not what's important right now." She said and Roan stared surprised. He had summoned her but she acted as if she had told him to come and he didn't budge. He studied her, remembering the moments they spent together, and regretting bitterly breaking her trust.

"What is the most important right now then?" He asked and Daenerys tore a piece of her shirt to wipe the blood from her face, being very serious. She had to tell him that the world was ending. She leaned against the wall, for the concussion made her slightly dizzy.

"You need to understand that I cannot waste time and men on a useless war. If we had more time maybe I would let it go more slowly. But we don't have time." She told him and he frowned. What was all this supposed to mean?

"Why don't we have time?" He asked and she took a deep breath.

"Roan, Pramfaya is coming back. In six months." She said and he frowned.

"Our ancestors survived Pramfaya. So will we." He argued and Daenerys shook her head.

"You're not listening. This is far worse. No one will survive. We need to find a solution for all of my people." Daenerys explained and he walked towards the opening, f romantic where shouts came "jus drein, jus daun..."

"We'll be dead in six days if Wanheda isn't executed and Skaikru wiped out."

"That is Not happening! I will not have Skaikru or Any other clan wiped out. Is that clear?" Roan studied her for a while before walking back to her.

"I trust you, Heda." He spoke, k needing to the ground in respect and submission. "And I'll stand by you." Daenerys let a smile reach her lips as she told him to stand up.

"I knew I hadn't pronounced you King for nothing." Roan rose and nodded. Daenerys went back to politics. The situation truely was urgent.

"Tensions will remain but I will act anyway. I will publicly recognise Skaikru. Only them can find a real solution for my people to survive. My people being all 13 Clans. I will let Skaikru out. Could you get a gathering ready?" Daenerys asked and Roan walked out with her, their ways parting as he went outside and she went to the sublevels. She walked faster as she reached the prisons and ordered them to open, then grabbing the keys to unlock Bellamy's cuffs. As soon ass he was free, he wrapped his arms around her and held her close for a few seconds.

"We have hard days coming ahead." She told him under her breath, knowing that the weigh of saving the human race rested on her hands.

"And I'll be with you every step of the way." He promised before they joined into a kiss.

"I love you Bellamy Blake."

"And I love you, Daenerys. Sorry I'll skip all the titles." He joked and they just both chuckled before moving out, back to professionalism. Daenerys was the Commander of the 13 Clans, leader of the Coalition. No room for mistakes...
