Maybe Someday

Chapter 2

(The rest of the finale will play out the same, everyone still transcends I am just changing the last scene when Clarke sees "Lexa" again. Only a couple of details are going to be changed but it will change everything).

I am riddled with utter despair, Picasso ran, I don't know where, everyone is gone.

"Please! I don't want to be alone!"

Silence, so I whisper once again, "I don't want to be alone."

"You're not."

This time I quickly turn around at the sound of her voice. I have already failed and lost everyone, what more could this 'judge' want from me?

"What do you want?"

"To explain."

She takes a few steps towards me so I turn and take a few steps but of course this doesn't deter her as she falls into step beside me.

"There's no need, I get it, I bear it so they don't  have to. Again."

"Such a curious species, you have added so much to us already," I turn to face her and she glances at me, she is smiling and for a moment I believed it was my Lexa walking besides me. But as she once again turns her face away I remember that it can never happen, "I'm glad to have been wrong about you."

Hope suddenly flickers at my chest.

"Wait," she pauses in front of me, "does that mean you're here to take me with you?"

"No." 

At that my chest once again deflates.

"You can never join us Clarke, your actions must have a cost".

"Just mine?!"

I once again turn from her and continue walking as anger builds within me.

"Am I the only human being who ever sinned?"

"Of course not, but you are the only test subject from any species anywhere in the universe since the dawn of time who committed murder during the test."

"I'd do it again."

"I know you would, I know how much Madi means to you, and she knew you would as well."

My heart  stops at the mention of her name and I have to know. I have to know that she is okay."

"Madi is with you then?"

"Her consciousness joined ours. Once someone transcends they are at peace, they never feel pain and they never die. She thought that you being here without someone her own age to love isn't something you would want for her."

At those words I instantly stop and turn to Lexa.

"Wait transcendence is a choice? You can choose to come back?"

"Of course, but until now no one ever had."

Until now? She can't mean? 

I instantly spin at the sound of laughter and the sight in front of me is something I never imagined possible. My friends came back. Raven is walking freely without her limp. Even Murphy is happy and smiling as he turns and sees me. 

I turn around once again to see Lexa smiling at Madi as she runs towards me, just behind her is one of the children of gabriel, Luca I think his name is. I can't help but laugh I catch her in my arms and hold her as tight as I can, not wanting to ever let go. 

"I love you too mom."

I drop to my knees so that I can see her face, I need to make sure she is real.
