The Edge of Shadows
She was so tired.
Clarke doesn't think she has ever felt this tired in her entire life, her body, her head, her heart, everything hurt and all she wants to do is collapse right there, but she can't, not here, not in front of them.
Pulling on all the strength left in her, she moved towards the exit of the drop-ship quickly and quietly as she could, ignoring everyone.
The wait of the decisions she had made since they landed on earth were heavy on her.
Suddenly in her exhaustion every emotion she was felling seemed to drain out of her, she was numb, empty. This feeling of nothingness scared even that fear seemed to flicker out and die engulfed in the emptiness as she continued walking.
She had not realised she was searching for something or someone to make the numbness stop until her eyes skimmed past the the bones of the dead grounders landing exactly on the spot she had seen Bellamy and Fin fall.
She waited for the voice the anchored her, the sarcastic remark followed with a smirk and the title of princess, she waited to be with meet with a pair of dark brown eyes.
She waited.
She waited for Bellamy Blake to appear before her, but he did not, he would not because he was dead.
Bellamy Blake was dead.
And it was like a switch has been flipped inside of Clarke and everything comes back, lighting up inside of her in full force, anger, self-hatred,.. guilt.
Everything around her come back into focus, cutting her like sharp blades.
Her feet were moving fowerd and before she released it she found herself stand next to the burnt skeletons before there was a flash of something and red smoke consumed her vision.
And as her closed she heard the words that made her wish she could sleep forever.
"Brave princess."
