Love & War

A.L.I.E

I pace my room. I have been here for two days trying to come up with a way to stop Ontari. I decide to go down to one of the lower balconies. I am standing there when I see Arkadia people walking in. What are they doing here. I step back when I see mom walking beside them.

"Clarke." I pick up the radio Bellamy gave me. "Can you hear me?"

"Bellamy?"

"Jasper showed up with Raven. Said Skaikru people are under some sort of mind control. Said they were headed for Polis."

"They are already here." I say looking at them.

"You have to get out of there." I look down at the radio when someone grabs me. They turn me and I see it is Roan. He puts his hand to his lip. I follow him out, down a secret tunnel. We get out of Polis and head to where Bellamy is. 

I call to him and he tells us his location. We meet up with him.

"What's happened?" He asks as I approach them.

"They took over Polis. They're giving people these chips." I say. "What is happening?" I ask looking at Jasper.

"I don't know. Jaha came back, talking about the city of light. Everyone soon joined him. Raven took the chip. But soon saw that she was controlling her."

"She?" I ask him.

"Her name is A.L.I.E." Jasper says. "Jaha claimed that she could bring them to the city of light. I don't know much more than that." I look at Roan.

"What do we do now?" 

"We need to find out how many Azgeda warriors are in Polis." He says. I nod looking at Bellamy.

"What happened to Pike?" I ask.

"I don't know. He probably got chipped." Bellamy says. I nod as we make a plan. We will sneak into Polis to find a way to take them down. I put my hand in my pocket to find a case. I slide it open to see it is chip but it is the one for the commanders. How did it get here?

Thats when I remember. Before Titus was taken he came to me. He whispered in my ear, that's when he must have put the case in my pocket. 

We all make our way to Polis. Roan and I go in with the flame. Ontari wanted it but Titus wouldn't give it to her. Once at the border I look at Bellamy. He brings me against him. 

"I can do this." I say.

"Be careful." He says, kissing me before following the others to the tunnels. Roan and I walk in with him holding the chip. We are soon surrounded by everyone that is under A.L.I.E's control. they split us apart, taking the chip from me.

They tie me to a post in the throne room. Ontari, Jaha, my mom and a few others are there. They keep asking for the pass phrase but I do not know what it is. Titus never told me. My mother tortures me, asking over and over the same thing. What's the pass phrase. 

After no results they decide to go another way. To bring my friends up. Tears fill my eyes when mom says Bellamy's name first. I wait for him to come but learn that the guards keeping them are dead.

Jaha decides that in order to make me talk is to hang my mom. I watch as she steps on a box, putting the rope over her head. I ask her not to do this but she doesn't stop asking. They want to know something I do not know. Jaha kicks the box over and I watch her struggle as she hangs there. Jaha turns to Ontari and thats when my eyes go wide. She kneels on the ground, hitting her over the head. She falls over, blood pooling around around her head. Jaha goes to hit her again when the door bangs open.

Bellamy and Murphy stand in the doorway guns out. They fight the guards and Jaha, knocking them out. Bellamy runs over to me, untying me. Murphy goes to my mom, cutting her down. I watch as he leans over her, trying to see if she is alive. She coughs, breathing.
