Prompt:
(Could you do a small story [two or three shot maybe] where Clarke gets hurt in a fight between O and bell?)

Notes:
Takes place during season one of The 100. For context, Octavia and Bellamy are arguing over Lincoln and the events that took place during that episode. I hope you enjoy!

The moment Bellamy saw Octavia in that cave, a rush of relief cascaded over his entire body. When he was a kid, he vowed to always protect her, to keep her safe, yet he failed to realize she was missing until it was too late. She was hurt, and he couldn't blame anyone but himself for that.

He rushed over to Octavia's side and inspected her face, checking for any injuries she might have. When he saw she was okay, he pulled her into a hug, expelling a long breath of relief. If he hadn't found her when he did, she could have died. He could have lost the most important person in the world to him.

"Bell, I'm okay, but we have to go before he wakes up!" Octavia said as she tried to grab her brother and leave.

"What? No, Octavia, we need to get rid of him! He took you, and we can't have that happen again," Bellamy asserted, grabbing a weapon off the wall next to him.

"What? No, Bellamy he saved me! Let's just go!"

Before they could react, the grounder shot up from his place on the ground, shoving a ridged blade into Finn's abdomen. He turned to Bellamy then, taking hold of the spear he was holding and pushing it closer to Bellamy's neck.

In a panic, Bellamy attempted to push back against the grounder, but he could feel his strength slipping away, and he didn't know how much longer he could fight it.

"No! Stop, that's my brother!" Octavia cried out.

Without hesitation, Jasper picked up another weapon from the wall beside them and knocked the grounder over the head with it.

Breathing heavily, Bellamy stood up, placing a reassuring hand on his sisters shoulder. He nodded his head toward Jasper, a silent thank you for saving his life.

"We need to get him back to camp now! Clarke should be able to help Finn. We need to hurry," Bellamy rasped out, gesturing for Jasper and the others grab the grounder while he carried Finn back to camp.

Octavia's face scrunched up in outrage. "Why do we need to bring the grounder, Bell? He didn't do anything!"

"Didn't do anything? Octavia, he kidnapped you, just stabbed Finn, and he tried to kill me! What do you mean he didn't do anything?" He looked at his sister, bewildered.

"He saved our lives, Bellamy! When the grounders were about to attack—"

"Now is not the time, Octavia! We need to get back to the drop ship. We will talk about this later!" Bellamy interrupted, turning around to start walking to the camp.

Chaos overwhelmed them when they returned to the drop ship. Gasps chimed across the crowd as they saw the grounder unconscious and held prisoner.

Clarke stood amongst them, her brows furrowed. Her confusion quickly morphed into concern when she saw Bellamy carrying Finn into the camp, blood seeping from his shirt and a knife sticking out of his side.

All Octavia could do was stare as Clarke scrambled to save him. Everything that followed seemed to happen in a flash.

The radio contact with the Ark finally working.

Clarke's mother walking her through step by step on how to pull the knife out of Finn's side safely.

Bellamy choosing to string the grounder up like prey in the upper level of the drop ship despite Clarke's disagreement.

It felt like a twisted reality. A reality where her brother tortured another human being without remorse. For the first time, Octavia didn't see her brother as a savior. She saw him as the villain.

Torture wasn't the right course of action, Clarke even agreed. Octavia had hope that Clarke could somehow talk some sense into her brother. But any semblance of that hope faded away when they realized the knife that Finn was stabbed with was laced with poison.

Suddenly, Clarke was just as cold as Bellamy. Not partaking in the torture herself, but just as guilty because she let it happen. She stood idly by and watched.

All of their efforts were in vain. The grounder wasn't responding to what they were doing. Octavia met his eyes then, and she saw it. She saw the soft spot he seemingly had for her in the way his eyes glimmered as he looked at her.

It didn't matter that Raven joined in by electrocuting him. It didn't matter that any other person would have given in from the start. The grounder stood there and took it like it was nothing but a slap on the wrist.

Octavia knew the grounder wouldn't respond to himself getting hurt.

She sliced her arm with the poison laced knife, and the panic that flashed across the grounders face at the sight was the only confirmation she needed. She knew he would help if it meant saving her.

She ignored the horrified look on her brothers face as she pointed to each vial until the grounder confirmed which was the antidote.

Clarke grabbed it, rushing back to Finn.

Standing up, Octavia glanced at her brother once, her heart lurching at the expression on his face. All she could see in the back of her mind was Bellamy torturing the person that saved all of their lives.

He needed to know that the grounder wasn't their enemy, and she was gonna make sure he listened.
