A/n: I did write this before the finale so this is speculation based off of sneak peeks (lets pretend I get the conversation right) & stills. Also all of these are going to be related to one another. Day 1 of OneYearofThe100: Favorite Female Character POV
Clarke was in a state of shock. The alliance she had given so much up for, had risked lives for, and had been broken in a wave of a hand. Clearly Lexa didn't care about any of the Arker's. That much was evident to Clarke. The old plan had to be scrapped and Clarke needed to come up with a new way into the mountain.
She knew that there was supposed to be a team in the mines, and that more than likely they had already cleared it of reapers. It would be her best bet to getting into that mountain. Clarke knew she had to try, for Bellamy, for Octavia, for all the kids waiting for her inside that mountain, for Finn, for the parents waiting back at Camp Jaha, for herself.
As she made her way to the mines, Clarke seethed at what had taken place. Not only had she sacrificed so much for this alliance, she had sent her best friend and partner into the mountain. All for nothing. What would Bellamy think of all this? Oh god, what is Bellamy going to think of Lexa kissing me?! It's not like I initiated it. Now's not the time to think of that Clarke, worry about getting the kids out and safe and alive and then worry about your love life. Clarke thought to herself as she headed for the mines.
The entrance was easier to find than she thought and soon she was racing through the tunnels listening for any signs of life, any signs of hope that someone remained. She heard the sirens that indicated a body being dispensed and ran towards the sound. Clarke then spotted Octavia and a bin.
"Where have you been?" Octavia questions her as Clarke approaches, "Why did Lexa sound the retreat?"
"Because the mountain men made a deal with the Grounders to keep their people safe." Clarke said bitterly, her heart stopping shortly as she spots Fox's body lying in the bin, clearly drained and tortured for her bone marrow.
"So now what?"
"Now I get through that door." Clarke responds holding up her gun and preparing to shoot the panel to short it out and release the lock.
"That's your plan. Bellamy is counting on you. Everyone is always counting on you."
"What do you want from me?"
"You trusted Lexa. You let a bomb drop on Ton DC. You let all those people die!" Octavia shouts at her.
"I'm doing the best I can." Clarke responds shakily.
"Well it's not good enough." Octavia spits back.
"Well I'm sorry that I tried to get an alliance with the grounders. I'm sorry that I sent my best friend and your brother in there to keep our people safe and allow us to get in. I'm sorry that I made it out without them. I'm sorry I killed Finn to ensure that alliance in the first place. I'm sorry I did everything I could to keep all those kids alive. IF YOU DONT LIKE IT, YOU DO IT!" Clarke shouts, finally reaching her breaking point after everything that had happened in the past few weeks. She had had so much stress and pressure about the alliance and the safety of her people weigh on her shoulders, and without Bellamy there to help her, Clarke was at her wits end.
As Clarke was shouting at Octavia, neither of them noticed the door open until Clarke spotted something out of the corner of her eye. She immediately brings her gun up to defend herself, causing Octavia to spin around and go for her sword. In the end, neither of them needed it for it was Bellamy, Jasper and Monty behind the door.
Clarke watched as Octavia ran for her brother and embraced him, afraid of how Bellamy would react once he heard of all the terrible things she did in name of the alliance. She could feel bits of the weight on her shoulders slowly fade away as she sees him and takes in his appearance. Knowing that Bellamy was safe and that she didn't kill him was in its own way a huge weight off her shoulders. Eventually they would have to talk about everything that happened while they were separated, but for now Clarke just wanted to hug her man.
"Clarke," Bellamy spoke quietly, as she saw him spot him over his sister's shoulders. She gave him a little half smile as he broke off from Octavia and made his way towards her.
"Hey, you okay?" she spoke softly as he approached her. Bellamy just gave that little half smirk she used to hate before pulling her into an embrace. He wrapped his arms tight around her waist and pulled her into the safety of his arms and warmth. Clarke immediately melted into the hug, finally feeling a sense of peace and contentment wash over her.
"Glad your okay princess, missed you." she hears Bellamy whisper into her hair. She nodded and pressed the lightest and discreet of kisses to his shoulder where her head was buried. This is what she needed all along, the strength and support that Bellamy offered just by being there.
"Missed you too." She whispers as she feels him press a kiss to her temple before they break their embrace.
"So what's going on?" Clarke asks, slipping back into leader mode with ease now that she had her co-leader back as well as a few of the kids.
"They've recaptured all the kids and are holding them somewhere. What happened with all the grounders?" Bellamy responds with ease. Clarke watches as he then spots the bin that held Fox. She watches as a look of shame and loss crosses his face before he reigns in his emotions.
"We were betrayed." Clarke replied shortly, "Now what can we do about the mountain men. Odds are they've found out about raven and Wick. We can only assume that they've been captured or escaped."
"Knowing Raven they've probably made it out. She wouldn't take being captured well. Would probably try to beat the guards off with her crutch." Octavia spoke up.
Clarke nodded, "That's probably true. Let's meet with Dante, maybe he can help us. You said he was helping us before." She speaks, looking to Bellamy and Jasper for confirmation.
Bellamy nods, "Yeah he told me how to radiate a level, and he was kind to Jasper."
"Then let's go and formulate a plan." With that they set off to find Dante and formulate a plan to save the kids that are still alive, saving all the mourning for after the war with the mountain men.
