While we were walking through the woods, I stopped to admire a lot of stuff, while Finn and Clarke were up in front, Jasper and Monty were behind them, and Octavia was swinging around trees. I didn't realize I was falling behind the group until Jasper touched my shoulder gently, "Come on." He said holding out his hand to help me over a fallen tree. I smiled at him and he nodded.
"What are you thinking about?" I shrugged, "Its beautiful, all of this. And I knew someone who would've loved to see it." He nodded, "Who?" He asked and I bit my lip. "A friend, Joshua." I smiled faintly at the memory of my big brother. "Ohh." He nodded to himself, "Boyfriend. I mean of course you have one.you're gorgeous." He rattled, "No no. Not a boyfriend Jasper. Just a friend." I sighed, "But it doesn't matter now, he's gone." I said. He smiled down at me, a goofy dorky kind of smile, "I'm sorry."
"Love birds, come on." Finn called back as Clarke caught my eye and flashed me a grin. I rolled my eyes at her. As we approached, I noticed Octavia in the water, and Finn striping down, "You and Jasper huh?" I gasped at the surprise. " No, no me and anybody." I said, "But you and Finn seem like a good pair." She blushed lightly, but before I could tease her, Kasper yelled out, "Octavia, get out of the water!" I looked over, only to see a large snake like thing heading right to Octavia.
"The rocks." Clarke breathed, "Help shove these in, and one of you can pull her out when it comes over here." Jasper hurried over, and I felt a little saddened by it. I thought that he liked me, I shook my head and pushed the thought away. The first rock hit the water, followed by a second, and when I looked over I saw Jasper haul Octavia out onto some rocks. I bent over, inspecting her leg, "It bit her. I need a strip of cloth." I said while ripping it from Jasper's shirt, "Sure go right ahead. No problem." He said sarcastically causing us all to laugh.
We decided to make campo for the night, we retreated back into the trees, and told stories and laughed, well they told stories, I didn't really have a lot of fun exciting stories. Not like Finn and Jasper. I laid back, and realized that it went quiet as I stared up at the moon. That was how I got my nickname luna , from Wells.
Flashback
I stood at a large window staring off into space, literally, I was thinking about everything, my parents, my big brother's obsession with Earth, when Wells appeared next to me. I jumped, causing him to burst into laughter, I admired the way his eyes lit up, and his smile. His smile was the most amazing thing I'd ever seen. It made him look genuinely happy, almost like a child.
"Its beautiful isn't it?" He asked calmly, staring at the moon. "It is, I wonder what it liked like from Earth?" He smiled, making me smile too, "Maybe one day we'll see," he said, "But as beautiful as it is, its nothing compared to you Luna." He said proudly, "Luna?" He nodded, "Its another way to talk about the moon, and since you love the moon so much I thought." I cut him off with a tight hug, "I love it. But now you need one, Cosmo."
He laughed, "Earth Moon and Clarke can be the sun." He grinned, I knew he'd find a way to bring his conversation around to Clarke, he never failed to do so. I nodded stiffly, "She can be Sol." He nodded, "Let's go tell her. I shook my head, you go ahead, there's something that I want to do." He nodded excitedly and clomped off.
End.
The forest was beautiful at night, it lit up, like stars in the sky above. I wish I could talk to Kane right now. I miss him, I wonder if he actually misses me up there. I shook my head, not realizing how late it had gotten. The sky was beginning to lighten already, so I got up and grabbed my pack, heading to the river for a drink. Not long after I got there had the others arrived, grinning and laughing.
Shortly after Finn stood holding a vine, ready to swing to the other side of the river. He looked scared though, and the thought caused me to laugh. "You can float around in space, but you can't swing from a vine?" He laughed nervously, "I'll do it." Jasper volunteered, looking down at Octavia. I sighed, "Well someone swing, we need to get back soon."
Jasper flung himself safely across and started cheering. I hugged Clarke, who hugged me back, "We're going to get food!" Month yelled. Finn was next up, when something stabbed jasper in the chest. "Jasper!" I yelled, Month was pulling me back into the woods, "We got to go Amelia." I fought, but he resorted to carrying me. "We'll get help, and then go find him." I said as they stopped by the trees.

When we got back to camp the sight we met was not a welcome one, Wells, holding a knife to some kids throat. "Wells! Put him down!" I yelled ad Monty helped men down the incline. "Where's your wristband?" Clarke asked, "Ask him." Wells nodded to Bellamy. Clarke looked over at me, and I nodded. No point keeping them in the dark. "You're all idiots." I said, "The life support systems on the Ark are failing. They are running out of oxygen."
Everyone fell silent, "Those people up there need to know that the ground is survivable. Otherwise they will die. When byou brake those sands off, you're not only hurting them, but yourselves. We cannot survive out here, not alone." She said, "Right now, your families are probably feeling the oxygen deprivation. Children will be the first to go. Then your friends, your pares. People you care about." I announced, but I didn't expect Blake to let go.
"Don't listen to them, they. They are the privileged. When the others get here, they're going to have it easy. But we, we're going to have to do all the work. Just like before. They say they'll forgive your crimes, I say you aren't criminals. Don't be their prisoners any more get rid of that band. Take it off and be free." He yelled.
I shared a look of disbelief with Clarke, "What now?" Monty asked, "Now, we find Jasper." Clarke said, "You, me, Amy and Finn." Wells interjected quickly, "I'm coming too." He said, "Your ankle." I said, it was a weak excuse and I knew it. "I'm fine, and you'll need the support. Ask Bellamy, he has a gun." Clarke and I looked between each other.
"I'll ask." I said, "He doesn't seem to like you much." I shrugged, and headed over. "You, come with us." I demanded, "Why would I do that?" He asked, "I hear you have a gun. We could use that." I said and he shrugged, "Look, we're heading back out there, unarmed. I can see one person here who's scared, and I can see it, so can they." He huffed, "Murphy, with me." Was all he said before stalking off.
