Where (y:n) was born on the ark and imprisoned when she was 10; in a cell with powers only she knew besides her best and only friend Octavia which only knew the half of the...
Riding a horse is definitely a different experience than anything else. The bumping, the feeling of the horses feet hitting the ground along with the feeling of the horses mussels tensing under you as it trudged along the forest path. The sun glared down on us but I could tell in mere hours it would start to set.
There was 2 warriors at the very front of the path then their was Anya's horse next to lexas, Lincoln and Octavia riding their separate horses behind us and then another warrior along with Indra behind them with another two behind them. I could see lexa glance at me a couple of times while riding behind Anya but I wasn't sure if it was because she thought I was randomly going to kill Anya or for whatever other reason, I'd be lying if I said I didn't look at her a couple of times.
————————
We had been riding for nearly 4 hours now and the sun was just starting to fade but it was still quite bright out. In the distance I could see a metal structure with a fence around it and I slightly stiffened at reflex of seeing the object "the ark on the ground, who would've thought, huh" I glanced back at Octavia when she said that and and rolled my eyes half playfully, still to haunted by this tincan to joke about it. "Is that what it's called? 'The ark?" The warrior besides Indra asked quietly, aiming the question at Octavia "yep" she replied popping the 'p'.
Slowing down about 10 metres short of the gate I could already see a crowd gathering around, seeing grounders definitely scarred them a bit if their facial expressions told me anything. The two guards at the front parted to the side so that lexa and Anya's horses were now leading, the warriors stopping half behind us and half in front of Octavia and Lincoln to the sides.
I could see guards start to aim their guns at us and I looked back at Octavia wondering if we should interfere, she nodded and we both slipped off of the horses we were on and walked towards the gate "open up Bryan !" Octavia called up to Bryan and I saw him squint his eyes obviously not recognising us "who are you?" He called back down and I could see Marcus Kane and doctor Abby griffin pushing their way through the crowd "Octavia?" I heard Kane question when Abby and himself got right in front of the gate he then glanced at me and squinted his eyes before he completely recognised me "(y/n)" why do I feel as though he were going to grab anyone's gun and shoot me right between the eyes when he said my name? That thought went through my head and I just nodded, keeping a stoic expression on my face "open the gate!" Abby called out to Bryan and the gate creaked open with a low squeal.

"Who are they and what are they doing here?" Abby asked aiming the question at the 6 grounders behind us "we're here for a meeting with the leader of the skaipeople" a powerful voice boomed from behind and never in my life have I heard a voice hold that much authority "and you would be?" Abby questions the commander but by the expression on Kane's face he has apparently already met the commander "commander, it's a pleasure to see you again" Kane said, nodding in lexa's direction "Marcus" she nodded back greeting him "let them in!" He yelled up and soon enough all 6 grounders and horses we're on the inside of the fence.
Turing and continuing looking in the direction where Anya and lexa were speaking I didn't hear the person walking up to me until I felt someone place their hands over my eyes "guess who!" They said in my ear and I shoved his hands off my face, turning and seeing finn and giving him a 'really' look, I guess it's just something about his face that makes him so annoying. Seeing past him I saw Murphy, Bellamy, Monroe, raven and Clarke all standing there and I felt a small smile make its way to my face and started making my way over to them. Clarke making it to me first, pulled me into a hug "I'm glad you made it back alright" she said and pulled back, I gave her a small smile and a nodded as of returning the statement. Turning to Bellamy I gave him a slight side hug, beside not really knowing him that well, he was still Octavias brother and that means I will still tolerate him. Next giving raven and Monroe and hug, them all saying it was nice to see me back again. Feeling the presence of someone behind me I turned and saw Anya standing there waiting patiently with a grumpy looking Indra "we'll be having the meeting tomorrow, so I suggest you all get some rest" "this meeting is about the mountain, right?" Clarke asked Anya who nodded in answer and Clarke nodded back.
By now the sun had set and it was starting to get dark besides the campfires placed around the camp, everyone had eaten and now mostly everyone was heading off to bed but I decided to make my way towards a fire to warm up for a bit.
"Hey" someone said siting besides me and I glanced up seeing my best friend "hey O" she smiled at me "how's it going?" I moved my head side to side and shrugged my shoulder basically going 'eh' "so..." she said and I looked at her confused when I saw her smirk "you definitely like lexa" she said and my eyes widen, I don't like lexa, I barley know the girl. I shook my head from side to side quickly but Octavia just laughed "come on, I'm not blind! I saw you two constantly glancing at each other when we were on our way here!" She said while laughing lightly "your still team grounder pounder" she laughed harder and huffed, punching my shoulder lightly "I'm not denying it" I rolled my eyes at her playfully and we sat in silence for a bit.
"Alright, I'm going to head off to bed, night (y/n)" she said and I nodded at her before she walked off and into a tent near the rest of the grounders. Looking at the fire, it reminds me of so many things that feel like memories but I know that they never happened. I felt the heat from the flames dance across my face while my eyes were closed trying to avoid smoke getting into them. Feeling someone standing next to me I glanced up seeing the commander.
She looked down at me and we just starred at each other for a couple of minutes, it was kind of awkward honestly "what's you problem?" She said suddenly and I just looked at her with furrowed eyebrows, she huffed obviously annoyed at something before walking away.
——————— I didn't know how late it was but I was still sitting by the fire. The moon was nearly full and the stars were bright out. There was still a couple of grounders sitting up whether that be guarding a tent or sharpening their weapons. Feeling exhaustion creeping up on me, closing my eyes for a brief second before hoisting myself up and making my way over to one of the empty tents that had been set up for us.
Walking into the tent the warm hair that hit my face was nice, making my eyes water slightly from the immediate temperature change but it was nice compared to the chilly air outside. Seeing two single beds in the room my brows furrowed and just then I felt something or more like someone walk into me. What's with me and getting hit by people when walking in&out of tents tf. Turning around I got lost in her forest green eyes and if you asked me how long we were standing there I wouldn't be able to tell you. She cleared her throat and I shook my head slightly "we're gonna have to share, there's only four tents and 8 people" she spoke and I nodded and headed over to the bed on the left, sitting down I started untying my shoes before changing out of the pants I was wearing because let's be honest, no one wants to wear muddy pants to bed.
Laying back, my head hitting the pillow, I never realised how tired I was until I was actually about to go to bed. Closing my eyes I almost immediately fell asleep.
"Listen y/n, I need you to speak for me, okay? This trial is happening tomorrow and it's not looking good for you" Abby spoke over the table in the room I had, had to go to almost every Tuesday for 2 years . Continuing to stare silently at the blank piece of paper in front of me. Hearing someone huff and a chair squeak back as doctor griffin stood, looking down at me I heard her sigh before walking out of the glass room.
