Love & War

One of Us

I wake up to find people on the floor. People confused. Murphy comes over taking the flame out of me. Once out I stand up as Bellamy comes over, catching me.

 "A.L.I.E.'s gone." I say looking up at him.

"I figured." I look around and remember what she told me. "Clarke, you're not acting like someone who just saved the world."

"We didn't. Not yet."

"What are you talking about?" He asks when warriors storm into the throne room. I look over to see Roan walking in.

"Arrest Skaikru." He demands. The warriors run in, arresting any of the Skaikru people. 

A warrior goes to grab Bellamy. "Stop." I tell him pushing him away. 

"Clarke." Roan calls me, walking over to me.

"What are you doing?" I ask him, watching Bellamy try to wiggle out the warriors hands.

"The city is ours." He says. I stare up at him, shocked. "Now that the city of light is gone we can take over the coalition."

"Who will lead? Ontari is dead." He looks over my shoulder at her body before looking at me. 

"No Heda." He says nodding to the warrior. The warriors turn to leave taking Bellamy with them. I try to grab his hand but Roan holds my arm, pulling me back. "You are Azgeda. Know your place." I glare up at him before looking at Bellamy being taken out.

I look at back at Roan. I yank my arm out before walking out on the balcony. I take out my radio, calling to Raven.

"Raven do you copy, over?"

"You're alive?" She sounds relived. "I saw the computer go black so assumed you did it."

"I did. A.L.I.E is gone. She told me something before I destroyed the city of light." I explain to her about the nuclear power plants melting down and radiation level on earth going up.

"I'll check it out and get back to you." I put the radio away walking back inside to see people being taken out. The injured and the dead are being moved. Roan is gone, only a few warriors remain. I walk out of the throne room to a room. 

After changing and getting cleaned up I walk down to see what is happening in Polis. People are siting beside they're dead, mourning them. I walk through the streets when I see mom helping people. I walk up to her, kneeling beside her. She looks at me and then goes back to helping the person before getting up.

She turns to me, pulling me against her.

"I thought you were in the dungeon." I push back.

"A few warriors spoke up for me, saying I was a healer and could help. Roan agreed." I nod glad. "We have to get Skaikru out." 

"I know but I do not know what to do." I say looking around. 

"First we help people then we figure out how to help the others." I nod following her. After working all day I get back to my room to find Roan sitting there. I take off my jacket staring at him.

"Why are you here?" I ask setting my jacket down.

"We need to talk about Skaikru." He says, sitting up straight. I sit down in the chair across from him. "Azgeda warriors are calling for their blood. They blame them for what happened to us. That they brought the city of light."

"They want them dead?" I say looking down. After a few moments I look back at him. "The worlds ending." I say. He frowns, looking a little confused. "A.L.I.E told me and showed me what will happen to the world in six months."

"The world is ending?"

"Fire will destroy the world." He nods understanding. "I believe that Skaikru can help us if we let them live." He stare sat me before standing up, moving to the window. I walk up beside him looking out over Polis. 

"If I do what you ask. Let them live." He stares down at me as I look up at him. "I'll be dead in six days, not six months." He shakes his head. "Sorry, can't." He turns leaving. I look back over Polis.

I get changed for bed, putting on a loose, flowing dress. I stand near the balcony, looking at the moon when someone knocks at my door. I turn walking to the door. I open it surprised to see Bellamy.

"Bellamy?" I look behind to see two warriors.

"You have the night. In the morning he goes back." One of them says before leaving. I grab Bellamy's hand, bringing him inside. I close the door looking at him. 

I don't say anything. I just grab his arm, pulling him against me as I kiss him. I rap my hands around his neck, tangling my fingers in his hair. His hands go to my legs, pulling me up so that they rap around his waist. He walks into the room, not breaking the kiss. 

He breaks the kiss, pushing me down onto my bed. I stare up at him as he pulls his shirt off. He throws it across the room. He leans over me, pushing me down on the bed, kissing me. He grabs my hands, raising them over my head as he kisses me.

He moves down my body, kissing my neck and then pushing the straps of my dress off. He slides them down. He lets go of my hands so that he can take them off. Once down he slides the rest of my dress down, following it as he slides it off me, kissing each skin exposed. 

Once off I sit up, sliding his pants down. He kisses me as he kicks them off, pushing me back on the bed. He moves from my mouth to my neck again. He trails kisses down my neck to my chest. He then kisses and sucks each of my nipples, making me moan. I grab the blanket, holding onto it as he pleasures me. His kisses go down to my stomach tickling me. I look at him as he he moves back up to me capturing my lips.

He opens my legs with his positioning himself between them. He moves his hand to raise my leg. He pulls away staring down at me to make sure I want this. I nod smiling and cry out as he thrusts inside me. Everything my grandfather told me about a soulmate was true. As we make love kissing and holding each other I hear my grandfathers voice again. 

"When we are born, the soul we are given is split apart and half of it is given to someone else. Throughout our lives, we search for the person with the other half of our soul. Very few of us find it. Our people believe that a fire sits inside of our souls, waiting to ignite the moment we meet our soul mate." He smiles down at me. "One day if you're lucky you will find the person you are meant to be with." 

We lie with each other after many rounds of making love. I look towards the balcony to see light peeking through. Dawn is approaching.

"They will be here soon to take me back." He says kissing my head. 

"Roan wants you and your people dead." I say. He raps his arms around me harder, holding me as close as he can. 

"What if I joined Azgeda?" I sit up, staring down at him. 

"But you are Skaikru. If you became Azgeda you would have to leave everyone you know behind." I say.

"If it kept me alive and my people. I would do it." I stare at him before looking away. 

"I don't think Roan will let you." He pulls my chin to look at him. "He has always thought that Skaikru where not like us. Not one of us."

"I could be." He kisses me. I smile in his lips, wanting it so bad. Wanting him. A knock sounds on the door.

 I look at it and then sigh. Bellamy gets out of the bed, as I pull my blanket up. The door opens Roan and warriors walking in as Bellamy finishes dressing. He looks at me, leaning across to kiss me before turning to walk out. The warriors follow him. I look up at Roan.

"Tomorrow they die." He says before walking out. Tears fill my eyes as he closes the door. I get up throwing a pillow. Screaming. 

I hate him. He has brought me more pain than I will ever know. If I lose him then what is the point of living. What is the point of saving us all if he is gone. I finally stop throwing objects. Staring at my room. Destroyed. I get dressed walking out. I will find a way to save them. To save us all.
