Survivors

Chapter 10- An Unexpected Truce

Bellamy Blake:

"Make sure that there is just enough smoke for the meat; no more, no less." I tell Octavia. I have caught her trying to sneak away from camp while trying to let her slide from any chores, so I've decided to give her an official place to work at: the smokehouse.

"Okay I get it." she says, rolling her eyes. After years of being locked up in prison, isolated from me, and than I come down here to look after her, this is the gratitude I get? Chills are sent up my bare arms as a freezing gust of wind bows past our camp. Winter is coming.

"Bellamy, we need to talk. Alone." I nod and follow her over to the drop-ship. When we enter in, I see Ali, tied down with seat belts on the little table.

"What the heck is this all about?" I gesture my hands at Ali. Clarke puts her hands on her hips.

"That's what I'm here to talk to you about." she says sharply. She climbs up the ladder to the second floor and I follow right behind her. When I close the sore and turn around, I see that she is right in front of me. We are so close that we breathe each other's breath. She pokes her finger at my chest and breathes hard. Oh the wrath of Clarke.

"I don't know what game you to are playing, but this sister fairytale has got to stop." What is she talking about? Does she still not get that Ali is her sister? I know that it's a shock, but after all of this explaining...

"Clarke, she's-"

"I don't want to hear it, Bell! First I've got a sister, than my father is alive! This is all just too good to be true." Wait, did she just say that her father is alive?!?

"Did Ali tell you about your dad?" I ask.

"Yeah. She said something about mountain men and then got all crazy about going to get him out of Mount Weather. That's why I tied her up. But you don't believe it do you?" I don't answer. Instead, I open the door and climb down the ladder. When I get to the first floor, I see that Ali is struggling to get out of the restrains. I quickly take out my knife and start to cut the seat belts.

"Bellamy, my dad!" She says.

"I know, I know." I tell Ali, trying to calm her down. "Clarke told me." Ali's face drops in depression at the sound of Clarke's name.

"The mountain men have him." I don't think that anyone has a lot of knowledge about the mountain men, so I decide that we are going to do what's best for EVERYONE.

"We are going to have to go to the grounders."
