the dull thud of mine and Abby's shoes echoed through the halls as we were on our way to the council meeting. Abby said it was about mount weather and i was slightly panicking, 'had something gone wrong?' "are our friends alright?', may said we didn't have much time because our friends weren't safe there and we haven't even got a solid plan yet, but i guess that will change after this meeting, i not going to leave that room until we've got a well mapped out plan of how t get lexa's and our people back!.
Abby pushed the door open when we arrived and entered with me following shortly behind. "sorry we're late, what did we miss?" Abby asked when we were both standing inside and the door was closed by one of the guards. looking around the room there was a circle table with about 12 chairs but everyone was standing. in the room was Marcus, major Brian, a few ark soldiers, lexa, Anya, Indra, Clarke, Bellamy, raven, wick and Abby and myself. "nothing much, we just got here and we're waiting for everyone to arrive, now that everyone is here, i say we should start" Kane spoke with as much authority as he could muster. Abby nodded and we both join the table. the table had a series of maps laid out and a re-drawn map of mount weather most likely done by Clarke.
"i feel like we've left this meeting too long" Clarke started, a few nods of agreement went around the table "we haven't got long-" Clarke went to continue talking until she got cut off "what do you mean 'we haven't got long?" major Brian said "maybe if you let her continue you'll find out" Bellamy replied before anyone else could and major Brian nodded "we haven't got long, we have someone on the inside that helped us get out, someone who gave us incite on what the mountain is doing to you're people" Clarke said, directing the last part to the grounders "and what they'll soon do to ours if we don't get things moving" she finished to take a breath "a question, what are they doing to our people?" Indra asked, clearly not yet believing nor trusting our people "if I'm not wrong you're people have been dispersing for years if not generations, some don't come back but the ones that do, their different" "reapers!" one of the grounder warriors said and Clarke nodded "turning you're people into reapers is only one of the horrible things they do" Clarke explained "we knew they controlled the reapers, we never would've guessed they created them" lexa said "what else are they doing Clarke". "they still them up, drain them of their blood, and use it for them selves. its like you're... our blood saves them, a guard came through covered from head to toe in radiation burns, a few hours later he was completely fine".
everyone was quiet, absorbing the information they have been given, you'd have to be stupid if you couldn't tell that they were fuming."okay, you've givin us all these problems, how do we stop them?" lexa said with a hand on her chin, her face completely emotionless besides her eyes, they told a whole different story. "why don't we just march on them, they'll be outnumbered, we'd win" one of lexa's guards -Ryder- said "that wouldn't work, you cant beat you're enemy if you cant get to them. those doors have been locked for nearly a century, its not going to budge".
it was like a light bulb moment, the ones you'd read about in books, like suddenly a solution came to mind that made you feel like a genius. tapping Clarke shoulder, she looked up at me "y/n, whats wrong" she said and obviously got the wrong idea of the situation because of my facial expression. 'the lake,it gives them power', her eyebrows furrowed before her eyes became wide "but if we take that away" she said and i nodded. looking back at the others, they all looked confused besides the people who already knew about my powers. "what is it?" Kane asked "the lake, hydroelectric power" Clarke said, hoping someone would get it "so if that gives them electricity them we could take it away, the door would be defenseless, it could work" raven spoke up and everyone looked at her and Clarke nodded. "it would work" Clarke said. "surely they would have some sort of turbind, something to generate the electricity" wick said from next to raven. "just blow them up, cut the power and were in" raven finished "no, no." Clarke said and they were a bit confused "why it would work Clarke" raven stated "i know, but were not trying to kill them, were just getting our friends out, blowing up there only source of electricity would make the filters stop working, the air would get contaminated, that's not who we are nor what were trying to do" she finessed and they seemed to understand.
it was silent for a few seconds until Anya broke it. "clarke, didn't you say something about the acid fog when we escaped?" clarke looked confused for a second before nodding "yeah, that's another problem, we found out that they are creating the acid fog, it makes sense. we couldn't do this without disabling it" clarke said obviously stuck for a solution.
"we need an inside man" Bellamy spoke up and we all looked at him "we've got Maya, she gives us intell" clarke stated "no, we need someone that wont get caught, they know her and they know who all of our friends are and if one were to disappear they would notice, you said reapers work for them, they control them, surely they have something to do with grounders disappearing" Bellamy said "its too dangerous Bellamy" clarke said "its also our only option, that way we can disable the acid fog, take away their defenses and we can make sure that our friends are all safe".
clarke was quiet, thinking it over in her head "he's right" lexa spoke up "if we cant destroy their defenses we cant even get to the damn to take away their power, we couldn't even get close to the mountain" clarke eventually nodded "okay, yeah. who knows how to where the reapers are?"Clarke asked "Lincoln" Anya spoke up without hesitation "if anyone should take Bellamy it should be Lincoln, he knows the tunels better than anyone" Clarke nodded at Anya.
"looks like we've got a plan".
