Title: A Clean Slate.

Summary: A season 6 fanfic.

A/N: Okay, in this story I am going to be bringing back the 'lost' characters, NOT the dead ones. Because, you know, they're dead.

Disclaimer: I do not own the Tribe (unfortunately).

A new day dawned on the travellers; their tiny boat gave them a clear view of the beautiful sunrise.

Ebony, Slade, Amber and Jay rose first to come out and admire it.

Ebony looked sadly at the disappearing view of the city; both her sisters were buried there. A few tears escaped from Ebony's brown eyes and trickled down her tanned skin and smudged her black makeup.

"What is it?" Slade asked.

Ebony thought back to the when both her sisters had died.

**FLASHBACK**

"It doesn't have to be like this Java'

"Yes it does" Java insisted as she fired her weapon.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Siva yelled and leapt in front of Ebony, taking the shot meant for her little sister.

"NOOOOOOOO!" Ebony screamed in horror as she shot Java in retaliation.

**END OF FLASHBACK**

Back in the present Amber and Jay were staring at Ebony; confused.

Slade knew exactly what was wrong. He could practically read her mind these days. It was her sisters.

"It's okay" he soothed, "its okay."

Amber and Jay held hands lovingly.

The others awoke one by one to enjoy the sunrise. Gel (of course) rose last, because she needed her all important 'beauty sleep'.

About five (boring) hours of sailing later may and Salene suddenly screamed "Land, land!" in unison. They gestured to the horizon on the right. Everyone rushed over in excitement to see. May and Salene had been right, because on the edge of the horizon, they could see a speck of green. It was obviously VERY far away.

"Wow" Amber exclaimed pushing through to the front.

"Yeah", Jay agreed, taking her hand and tickling Brey Jn on the nose.

"A new beginning..." Slade exclaimed, "A blank slate" added Ebony with hope in her eyes.

Ruby- who had been standing at the back of the boat with Ram- felt homesick. She missed he3r beloved saloon in liberty- just as the mallrats missed their wonderful mall. She sighed with sadness as she hugged Lottie close to her. Lottie looked up at her in alarm.

"Are you okay?" she asked playing with her doll. Ruby nodded and stared with hatred at Ebony.

Ellie and Jack glanced at each other with a loving look. Jack brought his eyes back to the vast ocean, while Ellie examined Jack. Her stomach felt a little heavy already and she also felt a little bit sick, and she knew it wasn't from the boat.

Ram hadn't moved a muscle from his spot next to Ruby. He was still looking in the direction for the city. Of course the city was too far away to be seen by the naked eye now, but her stared sadly. His one and only true love was there, he beautiful 'Javy'.

The Mallrats and, well everyone else, all waited and waited. And waited. The green they had seen before had turned out to be a very tall hill. By now the city as long gone- the new virus wouldn't touch them there.

Two days of rough sailing later and they finally came within the vicinity of the island. They could see buildings and houses, and they could also see a power station- to Ram and Jacks delight. As they got closer they could make out a hospital symbol on one of the fancy-looking big buildings.

As they came to the shallows they could see unattended cages on the beach. It looked like there were people in there as well. It seemed like the captors had abandoned the horrible cages.

Finally they reached the beautiful, sandy shore.

They anchored and all got out. Ebony, Gel and Brady, followed by Trudy, all rushed out of the boat. Ebony got down on all fours and practically kissed the sand; Gel on the other hand just took off her shoes and dug her toes into the sand. Brady (ignoring all of Trudy's warnings) laid down and made sand angels in the sand.

After the celebrations and the sand fights, they unlocked the cages and all of the prisoners pulse. Almost everyone was dead, except two; handsome boy with spiky green hair and a muscled girl with wavy auburn hair. Ebony and jack frowned, for they both looked strangely familiar, as if they recognised them. Lex wiped the dirt off the boys face and Ellie did the same with girl.

They both went wide-eyed with surprise and joy.

"Alice!" Ellie cried, tears streaming down her cheeks, smudging her yellow, purple and orange makeup.

"KC!" Lex exclaimed.

Everyone who knew them rushed over to see. It really was them.
