When they land on the ground and Bellamy goes to open the door Clarke asks him not to. We don't know what it is like out there! He says "your parents would have sent us down if it was toxic".
This is when Octavia appears and says "Bellamy?" "Clarke?" "What are you two doing down here?" Bellamy replies "We came down after you, when Clarke's parents told us you were being sent to the ground and all the 100, we made sure they let us come down with you. Got wristbands and all." "There are problems on the Ark, so they need to know if the ground is survivable." "We also came to protect you, it was the only way"
Someone says "How did you two get on the drop ship? You weren't prisoners?"
Octavia says "Do you mind that's my brother and his friend!"
Someone says "No one has a brother" "that's Octavia Blake, the girl they hid under the floor!"
Bellamy says "Ignore them"
Clarke says "Yeh let's give them something else to remember you by"
Octavia says "Yeh, like what?"
Bellamy says "To be the first person on the ground in 100 years!"
Octavia goes first then followed by Bellamy and Clarke and everyone else. Bellamy and Clarke hug her when they get to the ground.
Jaha is in the control room with Marcus and Abby. He asks "Why is your daughter Clarke and her friend Bellamy among the 100?" They tell him "Because we were sending Octavia to the ground, Bellamy would do whatever it took to protect to protect his sister, everything he does is to protect her and Clarke would follow him." "So we added them to the prisoners on the drop ship, this way the kids have two older kids with." "Bellamy and Clarke will protect the 100"
Jaha lets this slide and asks what all the red means on all the kids, wondering if they are ok. He is the critical one here needing to know more, before risking to send down more of their people.
Abby Says "They are either minor injuries or the kids just happy to be there"
Bellamy and Clarke talk and realise they need to get to Mt. Weather to get supplies. They know they all cant go. Not everyone will want to go. So Clarke will get a group together to go to Mt. Weather while Bellamy stays behind at camp to earn the 100s trust. Plus to find some allies.
Clarke goes with Octavia, Finn, Jasper and Monty.
Clarke tells Bellamy after he worries about Octavia going "Don't worry Bell I will protect Octavia, just as we've always done, you know me, she will be fine"
Seeing Finns wristband she says "did you not hear us earlier, the Ark is dying we need these to stay on so everyone can come down if it's safe to do so." "I mean everyone, not just the privileged but your people as well they need to know where alive"
Clarke's group heads off. Clarke and Octavia chat Octavia says "Finn's mine" Clarke replies "Don't care, I'm a few years older, a little too old for him." Octavia replies with a nice smile "So your perfect for Bell" Clarke just doesn't say anything they've been having that argument for years.
Callie checks with Marcus and Abby to see how Clarke is (Marcus's hovering worried about his family, especially his and Abby's daughter) "blood sugars low she hasn't eaten" "The Blake's are ok too, the same" she mentions "I can't believe we sent them to the ground" Callie tells her "you were protecting them, helping them, who knows what would have happened if you guys hadn't, you said it yourself earlier Bellamy would do anything to protect his sister and Clarke would have followed him" Marcus holds Abby from behind offering her reassurance that they did the right thing before they have to get back to work.
While the others are exploring, loving the ground, Clarke needs to get to the food and back to the camp. There will be time later to explore.
Clarke says "we need to keep moving we need to get the food and back to camp"
Octavia replies "you mean back to Bell!"
Clarke replies "no, we need to get the food and get back to where it's safe"
Octavia shouts "DENIAL" back at Clarke
Clarke yells back "whatever, let's get moving"
The others talk and then after asking Octavia why she was locked up, she runs up to Clarke. They all see the two headed deer.
Bellamy is getting people to help him run things. He would be more of a military leader while Clarke would be the diplomat.
Jaha is worried when a couple of kids vitals stop. He asks if could be radiation exposure. But Abby says that's not how radiation presents itself. He walks away. Marcus comes up to Abby " you okay?" She replies "fine, just not feeling the best!" He says "they will be fine" "that's our daughter and her friends"
Finn asks what Clarke meant about the ark dying before she says "with the current population there is 3 maybe 4 months now of life support left with us gone, that's why Jake Griffin the chief engineer was floated when he found the flaw he wanted to tell everyone. Bellamy and I only found out before arriving, my parents told us" Monty says "their going to kill more people aren't they?" Clarke replies "if they don't know it's safe then yes" Octavia says "after what they did to me I say float them all" Clarkes tells her "O! My parents are also the ones who were protecting Bellamy and planning to protect you! They are not all bad" she continues "we don't have to trust the council, but we can trust my parents" Octavia replies "fine"
Octavia runs off
Finn says "well we need to contact the Ark" Clarke tells him "that's what Bellamy and I are going to do as soon as we can and everything will go though my parents, as they are only ones Bellamy and I trust so hopefully the only ones the 100 will trust"
Octavia starts undressing to get in the water Clarke's yells at her "O!" "What are you doing?" Octavia replies "Clarke come in! You and my brother worry to much" Jasper yells at her "get out of the water" that's when they notice the big sea snake or eel going towards her. As it grabs her Clarke screams "O!" She's thinking oh no Bellamy is gonna kill me, where is she? We haven't protected her, her whole life just for her to die down here.
Clarke runs to the rocks and yells "help me throw something in there to distract it" once she's pushed the rock in her and Jasper run to the shore where Jasper jumps in after Octavia to help her out while Clarke stays on the shore to pull them out when they get back to the shore. Octavia hugs Jasper and then Clarke thanking them for saving her. Clarke whispers to her "that's what family's for" Clarke then let's her go and looks after Octavia's leg wound.
Bellamy's got some time to himself, he's wondering what they are going to do. This is a group of kids and for now they are on their own and they have freedom for the first time in forever. They will need rules later but for now they do what they want on their own. Bellamy found out a couple of the kids have removed their wristbands he doesn't want to do anything about it yet without Clarke but if it gets to be too many he will have to do something about it himself. Then it starts to rain and everyone feels the joy of their first rainfall.
Clarke's group rest on the ground for the night. When Clarke awakes she sees Octavia curled up to jasper :). She smiles, then looks around and sees the glowing flowers so wakes jasper and Octavia so Octavia can see them.
Abby and Marcus are in their room, they are worried about Clarke and the Blake's, still wondering if it was the right thing to do, to send them to the ground. They also wondering what is wrong with Abby, she's been feeling unwell for a few days now. They go to sleep curled up in bed.
Clarke's group arrive at the river they need to cross to get to Mt Weather. Jasper goes first he lands safely but as soon as picks up the Mt Weather sign he gets speared though the chest. Clarke is screaming for jasper as she pulls herself and Octavia to safety. Saying "we're not alone"
Hope you enjoyed it,
If you get the chance could you please let me know what you think. I would to hear what other people think of my idea.
