Sum: Former cellmates will decide if they want to split or stay with Clarke
FLASHBACK
"Where are you dragging me?" Murphy asked Roan as they were getting further and further away from Polis. "If Ontari finds out she will kill us both. Once I went away just for a minute, simply to talk with vendor and she went bonkers…I think she even killed the poor girl later."
Roan just rolled his eyes.
They got through the blockade and went into a cave close to Arkadia.
Murphy turned to other man with wide eyes. "I'm not going back there!"
"I'm not taking you back."
"Then what do you want from me?" Murphy snapped.
"I need you so Wanheda will believe me." After Roan saw boy's confused face he explained, "Clarke. I need her to come with me."
Before Murphy could ask anything more Indra walked into the cave.
"You took your time Indra. Anyways you're here so you can watch over him while I go for Wanheda." Roan was about to leave when Indra shook her head effectively stopping him. "I'm here to tell you that it will all be on you. I'm going from Lexa, and I need to talk with the Trikru leader. I don't have time to babysit."
"Lexa…Lexa… The name sounds familiar." Murphy thought for a moment. "Wasn't that the Clarke's dead chick?"
"Lexa is a commander and not a chicken!" Indra unsheathed her sword and pointed it at Murphy.
Murphy raised his hands in surrender. "OK, OK I get it." When he saw her lowering her sword he added, "But my point still stands… She is dead."
Indra sheathed her sword and shook her head. "She is not dead. We saved her and she is now recovering." She turned back to Roan. "You will find a way without me." With that she turned around and exited the cave.
Roan sighed and after a moment faced Murphy. "You will stay here. If you try to go back, you will be killed by the warriors on the blockade. If you will wander too close to Skaikru's camp you'll be killed by them."
Murphy rolled his eyes and sat on the ground. "I don't seem to have many options."
Roan nodded and left the cave to find Wanheda.
END OF THE FLASHBACK
Roan led them to one cave not very far away. To Clarke's surprise they actually got out with no trouble. As an added bonus, everyone managed to steal a gun for themselves. Her surprise increased when she really saw Murphy. "Murphy!"
Bellamy and a few delinquents gasped when they all saw him.
The boy just smirked at Clarke. "Hey princess, I see you're still alive."
Clarke returned the expression. "I'm very hard to kill." She patted his back. "Seems like it's the same with you." He just nodded.
Clarke had had enough pleasantries and changed the topic to what she cared about the most. "So is it true? Is she alive?" She bit her lip in anticipation.
He nodded again, "Yeah. At least that's what the scary dark skinned lady said...Ilsa? Inga?"
"Indra?" Octavia chimed in.
Murphy pointed at Octavia. "Yeah that's her, Indra."
Clarke let out a breath she didn't even realize she was holding in. "OK, then let's go."
Bellamy grabbed her hand to stop her. "Are you crazy? We can't trust them! We are not going to hunt some girl!" He pointed at Roan, "And especially not with this guy!"
Clarke jerked her arm away from Bellamy's grip. "You..." She pointed at him. ".…can do whatever the hell you want - as you wished from the start, but I'm going and there is no way in hell that you or anyone else can stop me." She turned to Roan. "You know which way to head?"
He nodded and moved outside of the cave, Clarke followed him. This time it was her mother who grabbed her hand. "Clarke I agree with Bellamy. This is not wise. He looks very dangerous."
Clarke shook her head and Roan laughed at this. "Mom, they call me the Commander of Death. I think I can take care of myself."
When his laugh died Roan shook his head as well. "I'm going for horses." He soon left, leaving Murphy awkwardly standing next to Clarke.
When Clarke saw Roan disappear into the forest she turned to her former cellmates. "Look if you don't want to go I'm not forcing any of you, it would be of your own free choice. The only save place you could go now are probably the waste lands. Pike won't take you back and with everything that is happening in Polis right now..." She trailed off unsure what to say. "Well… the grounders are not fond of you, now less than ever before."
Raven was the first one who moved to Clarke. "Well I'm going with you. Someone has to protect you from doing stupid things… Or at least do them with you." The dark haired girl grinned at the blonde.
Clarke gave her half smile and mouthed a 'thank you'.
The next one who stepped up was, to Clarke's surprise, Sinclair. "Well then I'm going too."
Lincoln nodded and also moved forward. "You're arrival saved my life. Otherwise I would have ended as my people have." He clenched his fist at the image of his dead comrades. "I owe you my life."
Octavia jumped to him and grabbed his arm. "Lincoln no!"
He smiled kindly at Octavia, and while patting her hand and turned back to Clarke. "It's a debt I will never be able to repay." He fell to his knees in front of her and bowed his head. "Ai badan yu op en nou moun." He got up and moved to the crowd forming behind Clarke, while others were looking at each other confused.
Octavia sighed and moved behind Lincoln trying to be as far from Clarke as possible - avoiding all eye contact with the blonde girl in the process.
Bellamy groaned. "O you can't be serious! It's dangerous."
"I'm not leaving Lincoln! … and now he can't leave her so..."
Bellamy groaned again and joined Clarke's slowly growing group.
"Well now I'm with you too." Abby looked at everyone in the group, especially Raven. "You will need a medic." She moved to them and her eyes locked with Clarke. "You didn't think I'd let you leave my sight again did you?"
Kane was hot on Abby's heels, and with a small smile to Clarke he joined as well.
With both of their former leaders on the other side of the cave, the rest of the former hundred posse, and Bryan, slowly joined too.
Clarke looked at everyone, surprised that after everything she had done in the past few days they still wanted to go with her. Even though most of them joined only because of Lincoln.
She made a mental note to ask about the meaning of the bow and his words later. She just had to find a willing grounder who would talk to her, and one she could trust. 'Yeah because there are just tons of those.' She sighed and moved near the exit to wait for Roan.
There were not enough horses for everyone so the only people on horses were Clarke, Roan, and Raven who got a horse from Murphy after a lot of persuading from him and Abby.
Clarke was riding next to Roan in front of the group. A few of his warriors were right behind them. Then there was Raven, with Octavia holding the reins of her horse so nothing happened to the mechanic - as she knew she prefers rover over animals. The rest of the gang was trailing behind them on their own feet and making small talk with throughout.
Clarke moved her horse closer to Roan's. "So how are we going to get through blockade?"
"There is a small portion of it where all of the warriors are mine. They will let us through."
Clarke nodded. "And where are we going exactly?"
Roan didn't even bother to take his eyes off the road. "She is hidden under one of my villages, close to Azgeda capitol."
Clarke turned to him with wide eyes. "In Azgeda?" It came out louder than intended, and Clarke received a lot of questioning looks from others.
Roan just shrugged. "We have a saying: The darkest place is right under the candle. No one would look for her there Wanheda, don't worry."
She clenched her jaw and nodded. She just hopped that Roan wasn't lying to her, and that Lexa truly is really alive, waiting for her hidden somewhere deep underneath the snow in Azgeda's territory.
Translation
Ai badan yu op en nou moun - I serve you and no other
They all joined for one simple reason - I need someone to die! :D This is The 100! and because no queer lady is going to die ...it's time for straights (and randoms) to take this responsibility :D
Also what do you think: Kabby or Doctor Mechanic?... I can imagine many funny situations coming from both pairings when Wanheda will notice them :D
Next time: Clarke will have some face to face...I would not be afraid to say even fist to face (but definitelly not in the way you're expecting..tehehe) :D
