This is Chapter 3. I really hope you all like it and thank you again for all the reviews, follows and favourites. :)


Clarke was filling her pockets with anything that she could drop for Bellamy to follow and was doing it as quickly as possible; Finn could come to get her at any moment. Just as she thought this the flap of her tent was pushed aside and Finn poked his head in.

"Come on Clarke, it's hard enough getting out of camp during the day no matter that people will notice you are missing, the quicker we do it the quicker we can be back."

"I'm coming," Clarke sighed.

Clarke walked over to the flap entrance but Finn did not move he just stood there with a smile on his face.

"What? I thought we needed to go?" Clarke questioned.

Finn's smile just got bigger as replied "Yeah, I just wanted to say that I'm so glad that you trust me and decided to come with me and not run off to Bellamy."

Guilt ran through Clarke and she winced. What would Finn do if he knew the truth? Hopefully he would not have to find out. Clarke realised that she had done exactly what Finn had feared she would do. Was Clarke really that predictable? Did she rely on Bellamy that much? Clarke tried not to show her guilt and forced a smile as they left the tent. They made their way across the camp thankfully not drawing any attention from the others. They looked around as they got to the hole in the wall. Finn went through first and as Clarke went to follow she felt eyes on her. She turned and her eyes met with dark brown ones. Bellamy nodded as Clarke climbed through the hole.

Finn lead Clarke into the forest, there was a noise to the right and before either of them could react Octavia stepped through the treeline. Clarke raised an eyebrow and looked between Octavia and Finn and suddenly everything fell into place of how they had organised this meeting. Then it struck her that Octavia must have been the one to help the Grounder escape.

"What took you so long?" Octavia quizzed.

"Clarke had to grab a few things."

"She didn't tell Bellamy did she?" Octavia asked eyeing Clarke.

"You know I'm right here," Clarke said annoyed as they both looked at her.

"Well did you?"

"No, of course not," lied Clarke, "I thought we were in a hurry."

They walked off into the forest Octavia leading with Clarke at the back so she could drop things for Bellamy.


Bellamy watched Clarke walk away from him to her tent. He was going to kill Finn; fair enough it was probably the right thing to do if they were going to confront the Ark they would need the Grounders but to put Clarke in danger was something that made Bellamy's blood boil. He was not kidding when he said he would kill Finn if something happen to Clarke no one would be able to stop him and would happily take any punishment the 100 gave him. He went to Miller and told him that he was leaving camp today. He had thought about asking Miller to go with him but felt it would be better if he stayed and looked after the camp if both he and Clarke were out of camp today.

"What about Clarke can't she hold down the fort?" Miller asked.

"She will be gone as well. Don't tell anyone else about this, okay. I know we were meant to be training with guns today but that will just have to wait. Let no one near the guns okay." Bellamy fixed Miller with a stern look before twisting on his heel and going to the tent the guns were set up in. Outside he turned to look at the camp and saw Clarke walking with Finn through the camp; they got to a section in the wall and looked around. Missing him watching them Finn went through the small gap in the wall. Clarke went to follow but stopped and turned to look at him their eyes met and he felt a jolt go through him, he nodded and she followed Finn. Bellamy made a note of were the hole was so he could fix it. He was the only one who knew how to shoot a gun apart from the little bit he had taught Clarke in the bunker. He grabbed a gun and some ammo, taking a few as he did not know if any were duds. Raven burst into the tent behind him and he cursed under his breath.

"What is happening? Where are they going?" she demanded.

"Finn is going to get the Princess killed, that's what's going on."

"I'm coming with you."

"You don't know how to use a gun," argued Bellamy.

"I don't care if Finn is in trouble. I AM GOING."

"Fine but I'm telling you if he gets Clarke hurt or killed you will not be able to stop me from doing anything to him."

Raven glared at Bellamy but didn't reply as Jasper burst into the tent.

"Bellamy! Oh… what? Where are you going?"

"Oh for god sake," cursed Bellamy.

Bellamy ended up taking both of them after quickly telling how to shoot a gun they set out into the forest carefully following the trail Clarke had left.


Clarke, Finn and Octavia walked through the forest until they got to a bridge stopping at the one end. They waited for what felt ages. Clarke was getting more worried as time went on, had Bellamy been able to follow her trail and was this really the right thing to do? She knew she had to do this in case they decided to turn against the Ark but it was still dangerous and Clarke didn't like that she was going in blind. Finn and Octavia looked calm though. Suddenly then was movement from the other side of the bridge and the Grounder they had tortured, Lincoln, ran across the bridge towards us. Octavia ran to meet him half way across the bridge and jumped into his arms. Clarke sighed, she knew Bellamy would be here by now as long as he could follow her trail and he would not be pleased that Octavia was with the Grounder. She was also a little mad herself.


Bellamy, Raven and Jasper had successfully followed the trail Clarke left and had walked through the trees and bushes to come down the side of the bridge. Bellamy could see Finn and Clarke standing with Octavia at their side of the bridge. His first thought was what was Octavia doing here? Then it hit him, she had been the one to help to Grounder escape even though she claim she had nothing to do with it. He was never going to let her out of camp again. His anger increased as the Grounder they had tortured started running across the bridge. Bellamy took aim with his gun 'just in case' he thought in his head. His sister ran to him and met him halfway jumping into his arms and Bellamy felt so mad at her, she had put the camp in danger and had disobeyed him. She was going to get herself killed hanging around with that Grounder.

It didn't help that Raven took that moment to comment "I guess we know how he got away," with a laugh.

As Lincoln put Octavia down Bellamy took aim again getting ready to kill the man who stole his sister when the trees on the other side of the bridge started to rustle and the rest of the Grounders stepped on to the bridge. He saw Clarke go to move back but Finn grabbed her and kept her at his side. Bellamy saw Clarke start to walk towards the female grounder and the two met in the middle of the bridge. He could see them talking back and forward it did not look as if it was going well.

"Grounder Princess looks pissed."

"Our Princess has that effect," said Bellamy smiling thinking in his head my princess.


Clarke was walking towards the female grounder still amazed that they had horses. They met in the middle of the bridge. Clarke stuck her hand out and said "I'm Clarke."

The Grounder ignored her hand and just said "I am Anya."

"We want to find a way to live in peace."

"I understand," said the Anya harshly "You started a war you cannot finish."

"No, we didn't start a war."

"The missiles you launch burnt a village to the ground."

This confused Clarke they had never launched any missiles then she understood, the flares.

"They were not missiles they were flares, a signal, so our families know we were alive," Clarke tried to explain; "We didn't mean to hurt anyone."

"You invaded our lands and tortured one of our own," Anya was starting to look angrier by the second, "These are all acts of war."

Clarke was quite for a second thinking for the best way to calm the situation down. "I know," she said "That's why we need to put an end to all of this."

"Lincoln said that more of you are coming down."

"Yes and not just the guard, but doctors and farmers. We can help each other. The 100 already have basic skills of nearly every job on the Ark."

"Will your people accept the terms we agree to?" asked Anya.

Clarke went silent, she was unsure where they stood with the Ark, when she voiced this Anya smiled. The complete opposite of the react Clarke was expecting.

"Are you saying that you need to create peace with them also."

"Yes the council will not do well on earth, they are less adaptable and will want to keep a hold on their people but will do anything to protect them."

Anya nodded. "Lincoln also said that you lead with another, is that him?" Anya pointed towards Finn.

"No, I was told not bring him."

Anya smiled she could read Clarke like a book "But you did anyway, call him I will talk to you both."

Clarke turned her head and yelled "Bellamy, come out."

Octavia and Finn looked surprised and Bellamy walked out onto the bridge, glaring at Octavia as he past her. Finn looked so angry that Clarke had not trusted him.

Bellamy came to stand by Clarke a smirk now on his face.

"Clarke says you may not join back with the Ark, is this true?" asked Anya.

"It is."

"I understand you do not want to give up your leadership," she smiled again and continued "We can have a peace. You can keep your camp but you will help us with medical needs. In less serious cases they will go to your camp. In serious cases someone will come and get Clarke. Also when the rest of your people come down we will go with you to meet with them. Are those terms agreeable?"

They were very fair terms Bellamy and Clarke shared a look and agreed that they were agreeable.

"We will define the details at a later date. We will come to you. We may have peace but I do not want you to know where our camp is just yet."

It was then a light crossed the sky and three of them frowned, it was daylight and shooting stars should not be able to be seen.

"It's the Exodus ship but it's early. Wait, it's too fast. Where are the parachutes," Clarke exclaimed as the ship crashed to the ground in a fiery explosion.
