Lexa when Clarke teaches her to paint ^^^^^^

Your POV

I stood near a camp fire in the middle of tonDC not really knowing where to go nor what to do. After lexa had sent everyone out of the throne room/tent thing everyone had gone their separate ways, some of the train, some of to work and probably some even off to see their families and how I wish I would do the same.

The sound of metal hitting against metal, grunts and groans were heard all around tonDC as worriers trained. Looking out across a the training ground I saw someone getting the daylight beaten out of them by a man twice the size but I guess that's just their ways, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger right. 1, 2, 3, 4 punches, they didn't stop. Narrowing my eyes at the two people fighting I was having second thoughts, I should help, but I probably shouldn't.

Before I could think of the consequences I could feel my feet lightly hitting the solid dirt ground, the noises getting louder as they were right next to me. Standing behind the Boulder of a worrier I could see slightly past him the the poor man he was beating. Tapping his shoulder he turned around to see who was bothering him but I didn't give him the chance. Bringing my left arm back and thrusting it forward, hitting his jaw and hearing a horrible click. The grounders head went to the side as a small amount of crimson blood trickled down his lip, he was angry.

In my peripheral vision I could see a small ring of people start to gather around to see what was going to happen. Nosy fuckers. Turning to face me again I could practically see the steam coming from his ears, bringing his meaty fist back and throwing it my way, I ducked, grabbing his fist as it was above me where my head would've been. Pulling down while moving forward so my right shoulder hits his thighs causing him to trip over my shoulder and land on his back behind me. Hearing the dull thud of his weight hitting the dirt ground of the training area. Spinning around and throwing a punch as his temple and seeing his eyes role to the back of his head.

Feeling someone grab my waist and trying to pull me up "calm down tiger" I heard a soft voice of someone I'll never forget, my entire body going stiff not believing who I heard. Spinning around and looking wide-eyed at the girl in front of me and she seemed just as surprised "(y-y/n)" she stuttered before a huge grin spread across her face.

Surging forward and bringing her arms around my neck in a tight Embrace while my arms wrapped tightly around her waist "I though you were gone, when we got to the drop ship no one was there!" she pulled back after speaking. I gave her a soft smile, my eyes doing a double take at her clothes, wearing a full grounder outfit and braids in her hair, Octavia looked amazing in her grounder outfit "talk to Anya, she can explain" she nodded at me before giving me another hug and going back over to Lincoln.

To say I was surprised about seeing Octavia in tonDC was an understatement but her and Lincoln were definitely cute together. Glancing back to the passed out grounder I saw two people working on picking him up while another few people were helping the bloodied grounder. The crowd of people were disappearing and warriors were going back to their training.

Heading back over to the fire I was previously at I sat down on a log, watching the flames dance around, the heat radiated off it, fire is definitely one of the many beautiful dangerous things.

5 hours later

The sun was high in the sky, shining down on the trees making the leafs glow, after the whole fight thing I hadn't seen Octavia and I couldn't help the happy feeling I had knowing that my best friend was safe and well, but it just kept me thinking about if Clarke got in Arcadia safely and if all the others were alright but I, unlike Clarke, dreaded going back to the ark, to many bad memories and bad people, it was inevitable though seeing as Anya had come and informed me that we were heading to the ark before dark for a meeting about mount weather and tell the people from the ark how Clarke, Anya and myself  escaped.

I felt someone tap my shoulder causing me to flinch and look back, there stood Octavia who had a small satchel bag hanging from her shoulder and a sword strapped to her back "we're heading off now, come on" she pointed over her shoulder with her thumb and I nodded, standing up and hearing my joints pop it felt good.

Octavia and I walked over to the exit of tonDC and everyone was there, well everyone including Anya, lexa, Indra, Lincoln and a couple of other warriors.
All of them were on saddled horses with either swords or bow&arrows. "Have you ever rode a horse?" Someone said above me and I looked up seeing Anya on a beautiful dark horse with a white splotch on its forehead. Giving Anya a stiff shake of my head she nodded then glanced up around and furrowed her brows, letting out a sigh she motioned to the back of her horse "get on" I raised my brows and she held her hand out for me and I hesitantly grabbed it while she pulled me up.
