After dressing in the clothes Naruto had brought to the bath with them, they hurried to the camp. They arrived at it ten minutes later and found everyone looking in the general direction of where the pod flew by them in the sky.

Naruto and Clarke looked around for Bellamy but couldn't find him anywhere. So, they went to his tent, which was currently only occupied by two naked girls. "Ever hear of knocking?" One of the girls, who was currently dressing, spat at them with a scowl.

"Where's Bellamy?" Naruto asked, his voice telling them he didn't have time for bullshit.

"He took off a while ago." The girl said, and Naruto internally cursed. This was another of Bellamy's attempts at making sure the arc didn't come down to the ground.

Naruto took a glance around the room, noticing his gear missing. "His gear is gone. He went after the pod." Naruto said, before turning around and exiting the tent, followed by Clarke. They walked through, and out of the camp, and into the woods.

"Alright, get on my back," Naruto said to Clarke, crouching down so Clarke could get on his back. Clarke complied, knowing not to argue with him. "Do you know where the pod landed?" Clarke asked. Naruto nodded, he could still feel the chakra of the person inside of the pod.

"Yeah, I know exactly where the pod is. We will get there before Bellamy easily. Although, it will still be an hour-long ride." Naruto said, before running up a nearby tree and tree hopping at a traveling pace. Which to Naruto, was closer to forty miles per hour.

Clarke took joy in the ride, feeling the wind blow on her face, as her hair flung about everywhere, taking in all the scenery blurring past her. It was a unique and welcomed experience. One she guessed not many people ever got the pleasure of experiencing.

This being because not many people, if not only one person, that person being Naruto, have the ability to run forty miles per hour. "Are you holding on tight?" Naruto asked, indicating that he was about to speed up.

Which in all honesty, the speed at which he was running, was just as second nature as walking to him. Clarke held on tighter and nodded, giving him permission to speed up. To the normal eye, meaning anyone who wasn't Naruto, they would disappear from view as Naruto sped up from forty to pushing one hundred in an instant with just a burst of chakra to his legs.

Everything happening around Clarke was nothing but a blur as Naruto flew through the forest at incredible speeds. The whole thing felt like an out of the world experience to Clarke. She honestly felt like she was soaring through the skies.

They continued on their run for twenty minutes without Naruto letting up in speed at all. This resulted in them arriving at the pod forty minutes earlier than expected. The pod was in the middle of a small clearing, right next to a small stream.

Naruto landed in a crouch, allowing Clarke to get off of him without any problems. "That was amazing. Do you usually run that fast when you go places?" Clarke asked, a wanton smile on her face.

"No. Usually, I go faster," Naruto said, which was true, he just didn't want to go as fast as he usually does with Clarke on his back. It probably wouldn't be as enjoyable for her as it was when he was running just over one hundred miles per hour.

"Now come on. We have a pod to check." Naruto said, standing up and walking over to the pod. He looked at both sides, confused. Before when he was in the Elemental Nations, space stations and rockets and stuff was only things people fantasized about.

Especially in places like Snow Country, where the Elemental Nations was the most technologically advanced. Although even then, the most advanced contraption there was a steam engine train. But they would often fantasize about what it would be like to be in outer space.

What it would be like to live up there. Naruto briefly experienced that when he was on the arc station for a small number of times, but all this just leads to what Naruto was confused about. How the hell did you open a space pod?

"Hey, Clarke. How do you open this thing?" Naruto asked, looking around for a door handle or something of the sort. He turned and looked at Clarke, who was giving him an 'are you stupid' look.

"What? Did I forget the in the Elemental Nations, the most advanced technology I had was a Refrigerator?" Clarke's jaw opened a little bit, before closing, and opening again, then closing, before she just shook her head.

"Sounds like the Elemental Nations was just the boonies," Clarke said, to which Naruto tilted his head in confusion. "The middle of nowhere," Clarke said, to which Naruto nodded his head. After all, it was very much true. He lived in a village in the middle of nowhere surrounded by trees with very little technology.

"Could you just open this thing? Or do I have to rip it in half?" Naruto asked, which got a panicked look from Clarke.

"No, there's no need to do that. You just pull up on this thing." Clarke said, grabbing a small node and pulling the door open. Clarke gasped when she saw a woman with blood trailing down her forehead inside wearing an astronaut suit.

"Oh my god," Clarke said, holding a hand to her face. Naruto peeked in and rose an eyebrow at seeing the woman. Well, he could still feel her chakra, so he knew she was alive at the least. Clarke reached into the pod and unbuckled the woman, which wasn't the smartest thing to do, as the woman fell face forward and smacked her head on the glass.

"Oh, oops," Clarke said, and Naruto couldn't help the amused smile that graced his face. It disappeared however when a pained groan came from the woman as she started to stir.

"Seems your little accident waked her up." Naruto said to Clarke, which got a quick 'shut up' in response as they waited for the woman to fully wake up. The woman slowly rose her head, looking around her pod until she saw Naruto and Clarke to the side of her.

"Hi. I made it?" The woman asked, getting an amused smile from Clarke and Naruto. "You wouldn't happen to have any aspirin, would you? I have a massive headache." The woman asked them, garnering a guilty look from Clarke.

"Sadly, no," Clarke said, before slowly helping the person out of the dropship. Once she was out of the ship, she took off her astronaut suit, which Naruto recognized as the thing that he saw while he was floating in space come after him.

Once the woman's astronaut suit was off, she looked around, amazed at what she was seeing, just as everyone else was when they got off the dropship. She looked around at all the nightlife, not believing what she was seeing.

"It's beautiful, isn't it?" Clarke asked, to which the woman nodded absently. "I'm Clarke by the way. And this is Naruto." Clarke said, introducing the two of them to the woman.

The woman looked to Clarke quickly. "Clarke? Abigail's daughter?" The woman asked, which made Clarke tense and slowly nod. "This is all thanks to her!"

"My mom?" Clarke asked, surprised that her mother was behind the pod coming down to the ground.

"Yea. This was all her plan. We were planning to come down here together, but we couldn't wait because the council is voting whether to kill 300 people to save oxygen." Clarke and Naruto's eyes widened, shocked by that statement.

"When?" Clarke asked, panicked.

"Today! We need to tell them you're alive!" Raven said, rushing back to her pod to the radio. Sighing in relief seeing it was still there. She starts fiddling with the radio but finds that it had some damage done to it during reentry.

"It's damaged, but I can fix it. It should only take me ten minutes at the most, but I don't have the tools I need here." Raven said, to which got a nod from Clarke and Naruto.

"I'm sure we have the tools back at camp. We should be able to get back by dawn." Naruto said, getting nods from Raven and Clarke. Raven ripped out the radio, making sure that she wouldn't do more damage to it in the process, and they all started to make their trek back to camp.

"I'm sorry to ask, but did a person named Finn come down here with you guys?" Raven asked, causing Clarke to tense, which didn't go unnoticed by Raven. "What is it? Did something happen to him?" Raven asked worriedly.

Clarke shook her head, trying to play it off. "No. Finn is fine." Clarke said, refusing to meet her gaze. Raven stared at Clarke in worry, it was obvious either something happened to Finn, or Finn did something he shouldn't have.

"Please, tell me, Clarke. I want to know what it is." Raven pleaded, desperately hoping that Finn was alright.

"You should tell her Clarke. There's no guarantee Finn will tell her, and she has a right to know what her boyfriend did." Naruto said, gaining a bewildered look from Clarke and a worried and pleading one from Raven.

"What did Finn do? And how do you know I'm his girlfriend?" Raven asked, confused.

"He talked about you the first few days we landed on the ground. Said you where his girlfriend up on the arc." Naruto said, to which got a smile from Raven. Knowing Finn cared enough to talk about her to other people.

"Then what did he do? Did he hurt someone?" Raven asked, to which Naruto cast his gaze over to Clarke, who had faced forward, before looking back at Raven. Who got what he was saying, and turned to Clarke.

"What did Finn do to you. So help me if he hit you…" Raven said, her voice growing cold as she spoke as the threat lingered in the air.

Clarke shook her head in a negative, not knowing if she should tell Raven. But after a while of consideration, she decided that Raven had a right to know what her boyfriend did. "No, he didn't hurt me or anyone physically. Finn's a good person, it's just that he, he umm…" Clarke said, trying to find a way to tell Raven without hurting her too badly.

"What? What did he do." Raven asked, really worried now. If he didn't hurt anyone physically, then what did he do?

"I'm sorry Raven. When all our wristbands went offline, Finn got angry and started throwing things around a bomb shelter that he had found. I tried to calm him down, and he did after a while. But then, he tried forcing himself on me. I'm so sorry."

Raven froze in place. "Your joking. Right?" Raven said, her voice broken and cracking. Tear starting to come to her eyes.

Clarke looked at Raven with an apologetic look, not knowing what to do. "I'm sorry," Clarke said, which caused Raven to release an angry and depressed sigh as she closed her eyes. Refusing to let the tears brimming in her eyes to fall.

"When did it happen?" Raven asked, dreading the answer. Clarke looked down, refusing to look at the devastated look on Raven's face.

"A few hours ago," Clarke said, to which Raven didn't know if that was better or worse than him doing it earlier than that. And also, to start cursing herself. Thinking that if she would have fixed the pod faster, she could have been there to stop him from doing it.

Raven started walking away, but Naruto and Clarke stayed behind as Clarke looked at Naruto with a glare. "Why did you have me tell her? Look at her, she's devastated." Clarke said, to which Naruto didn't make any expression changes.

"What if it was you? What if I tried forcing myself on someone? Would you want to know sooner, or later?" Naruto asked, to which Clarke froze. Clarke looked down realization dawning.

"I guess sooner. Sorry." Clarke said, to which Naruto just smile and put a hand on her shoulder.

"Don't worry, there's nothing to be sorry for. And as far as Raven is concerned, she'll get over it. It will take some time, and it will hurt for her, but she'll get over it. Or maybe she'll forgive him. Only time will tell. Now, come on. We have 300 people to save from being floated." Naruto said, to which Clarke smiled and nodded in response.

They caught up to Raven and continued in their trek to the camp with one very devastated and angry Raven with them. All the while, Bellamy was still running to the pod, unbeknownst that he was already too late.

Four hours later, Naruto, Clarke, and Raven arrived at the camp, just as the sun started to appear over the horizon. Clarke let out a yawn as she entered the camp, exhausted from walking for the past four hours as well as not sleeping at all in the past 20 hours.

Everyone in the camp watched as the three of them walked into the camp and into the dropship, confused about who was with them, as no one had ever seen her before. Rumors starting about how she was in the pod that landed on the ground. Which for one, would be a correct assumption.

When they entered the dropship, they saw Monty yawning, indicating he just woke up, as he worked away on Clarke's dead wristband. Seeing if he could salvage it at all. "Monty," Clarke said, to which Monty slowly turned and look at Clarke, yawning again.

"Clarke, Naruto. Good morning." Monty said, before taking notice of the third person with them, or rather what she had in her hands, and his eyes widened as he stood up quickly and rushed over to her. "Is that a radio?!" Monty asked, excited and eager.

The woman, who had a scowl on her face, nodded before walking past him and going to were Monty was working on Clarke's wristband. Looking at all the tools. "The will do. This shouldn't take more than half an hour at the most." Raven said as she got to work on the radio, desperate to do anything to get her mind off Finn.

Naruto and Clarke nodded, and Naruto turned to Clarke. "I'm going to go hunting. I think it would be best to have food for Charlotte when she wakes up. If she hasn't already." Naruto said, to which Clarke nodded.

"I'll go back to the hut and check on her," Clarke said, to which Monty looked at them confused.

"Hut? What hut?" Monty asked, to which Clarke froze, cursing herself for not being more careful. Naruto put a hand on her shoulder, smiling at her.

"It's alright. I trust Monty. You can show him the hut. As long as he doesn't tell anyone about it." Naruto said, looking and Monty, sending him a nod before leaving to go on a quick hunting trip.

In which he used Kunai's created by his Creation of All Things to catch a few rabbits, a dozen squirrels, and a boar. Sealing them all into a sealing scroll, before heading back to the hut. The hunt overall took not even twenty minutes.

After all, with the lack of human population on the Earth, the number of animals in the forest were abundant. He didn't need to do much besides tree hopping from tree to tree, making sure to make no noise, all the while looking around for any animals to catch all the ones he did today.

When he got back to the hut, Charlotte was awake, sitting on top of her bed with a large smile, as Clarke sat behind her, braiding her hair. "I'm back," Naruto said, to which garnered the attention of the two. Looking at him with smiles.

"Hi, Naruto! Clarke is French braiding my hair! How does it look?" Charlotte asked. To which Naruto smiled and chuckled in amusement.

"It looks great Charlotte. I'm going to prepare the animals and cook them, then we can eat breakfast." Naruto said, to which Charlotte nodded eagerly.

"Did you ever find anything? You were only gone for like 20 minutes." Clarke said, to which Naruto gave a nod.

"Of course, I did. Do you underestimate my hunting ability? I feel offended." Naruto said, feigning a hurt voice. Clarke chuckled and shook her head at his antics.

"Whatever. I brought Monty here by the way. He asked a lot of questions. First about how we built the hut, then about how it felt so nice inside it constantly. But he liked it nonetheless and said he wouldn't tell anyone." Clarke said, and Naruto nodded.

Charlotte looked at Naruto confused. "Actually, how did you build this place. Also, I remember there only being one door in the hut yesterday. Why is their two now?" Charlotte asked, voicing the question that had been bugging her since she woke up.

"That's a long story. One that I will tell you very soon, I promise. And as for the second door, I built a second room for the cot last night. The room we are in now is your room. That door over there is the door to Clarke and I's bedroom." Naruto said, to which Charlotte nodded, before gasping, like she hit some epiphany.

"Wait! Are you two dating?!" Charlotte yelled, making Clarke and Naruto chuckle. Charlotte might be a teenager, but she definitely didn't have the mindset of one.

"Yes, Charlotte. Even though he's a big knucklehead and an idiot at times. To be honest, I don't even know why I put up with him." Clarke said, to which Naruto rolled his eyes as Charlotte chuckled.

Naruto looked to Bee who was lying on the floor sleeping. Whistling, Bee woke up and stretched before walking over to Naruto. "Come on, Bee. You're on scraps duty." Naruto said, before walking out of the hut, followed by Bee.

Once outside, Naruto unsealed all the animals, before using a kunai to gut them all. Leaving all the organs and other things they couldn't or didn't want to eat for Bee to eat. Which was a lot considering how many animals Naruto had killed?

Just as he finished gutting all the animals, he created a shadow clone and ordered it to go and find fruits and other herbs to eat along with the meat. The shadow clone saluted before dashing off to find the food, while Naruto used a doton jutsu to make a fire pit, and mokuton to create a rotisserie stick.

Finally, he grabbed some nearby sticks, putting them in the fire pit, before using a simple katon jutsu to light the fire. Putting all the meat he could on the rotisserie stick, he started to cook it. Slowly turning it so it would cook evenly on all side of the meat.

A few minutes later, he had cooked all the meat that he needed to and sealed the rest back into the sealing scroll, where it would be preserved and wouldn't spoil for about a week. The clone arrived with a sealing scroll full of fruits and berries not even thirty seconds later.

Having everything he needed for breakfast, he used some big leaves that the clone found and cleaned as plates, and prepared all the food, before bringing it inside the hut. "Foods ready," Naruto called as he entered the hut.

The smell of the freshly cooked food entered the hut, and the girls couldn't help but drool a little at the smell. But who could blame them? Upon the arc, all they ate was rations, which didn't taste the best. And eating meat was something that you would be lucky to have the opportunity of ever even smelling.

They all sat down and had breakfast consisting of boar meat, blueberries and raspberries, and some nuts. The three ate their breakfast on the floor in peace with Bee sleeping next Charlotte. The panther seemed to have taken a really big liking to Charlotte.

"After breakfast, we need to head back to camp. Raven should have the radio fixed by then." Naruto said, and Clarke nodded. "Bellamy should be arriving at the camp in about three hours most likely. I wonder what he felt like when he got there and the person in the pod was gone." Naruto said with a smirk.

Clarke returned the smirk. It was about time something didn't go Bellamy's way. Although he did do good things at times, he often did things that weren't in the best interest of the camp. "Would you like to go back to camp with us Charlotte?" Clarke asked, and Charlotte stopped eating, looking to be considering it.

"It will be alright Charlotte. You can stay with us the entire time if you want. And trust me, no one will try and do anything with Naruto around." Clarke said, and Naruto smirked at the comment. It was true that all the people in the camp knew he would kick the ass of anyone who came near Charlotte with ill intentions.

Charlotte chewed on the bottom of her lip, deep in consideration. She looked up and slowly nodded. "I think I'll come back today. As long as I am with you guys and Bee the whole time." Charlotte says, and the Clarke and Naruto nodded.

"Okay. We'll be leaving right after we finish breakfast. If you can't finish your food, just feed it to Bee." Naruto said as he ate the last few pieces of food on his leaf. Naruto sat and waited patiently for Clarke and Charlotte to finish eating.

Once they did, they all left the hut and went to the camp. When they arrived, Charlotte tensed, still nervous about returning to camp. And the people might say or try and do to her. After all, she did kill someone. Even if it was someone not many people liked.

As they walked through the camp, everybody stared at Charlotte making her way toward the dropship alongside them. Most the stares where of confusion, but some were glares of anger and hatred. Mostly, It was Murphy and his group of friends that were glaring at Charlotte with anger and hatred.

As they walked, Bee let out a low growl to anyone that he deemed getting to close to Charlotte. Resulting in the person getting as far away as possible from the panther. Even if the people were just walking by, minding their own business, Bee would still growl.

Naruto was amused by Bee's overprotectiveness of Charlotte. At this rate, Charlotte wouldn't even be able to get the chance to meet a boyfriend until Bee decided to stop being so overprotective of her. Naruto led the group through the camp, not paying attention to all the stares people were sending their way.

It wasn't that he didn't notice them. It was that he couldn't care less and ignored them. When they arrived at the dropship, they saw Monty and Raven high fiving with large smiles on their faces.

"Does that high five mean that you fixed it?" Naruto asked, and the group of two turned, and Monty gasped when he saw Charlotte. Raven looked at Monty confused, as she had no idea what Charlotte had done, or even why he gasped.

"Charlotte?" Monty asked, and Charlotte hid behind Naruto. Sure, she had met Monty when he stopped by the hut, but she never really talked to him, nor did he try and start a conversation with her. He just talked with Clarke, and then left.

"Hey, it's alright. I won't do anything to you. I was just surprised to see you, that's all." Monty said, smiling at her. Charlotte slowly came out behind Naruto but didn't make any attempts to put distance between her and Bee, who was currently only a couple of inches from her.

"S-So, you not angry?" Charlotte asked, and Monty's face softened.

"Why would I be angry?" Monty asked, and Charlotte looked at Monty with tear-glazed eyes.

"B-Because, I k-killed someone," Charlotte said lowly, barely loud enough for Monty and Raven to hear it. When Raven did hear it, she couldn't suppress her gasp, but Monty ignored it and kept the smile on his face.

"I thought Naruto and Clarke would have told you already. You're forgiven, Charlotte. Nobody blames you for it. As far as we're all concerned, you've already suffered punishment enough. Besides, you're not the only person that has killed someone. There were a few people on the dropship who were put in solitary for murder." Monty said, surprising Charlotte as tears dripped down her cheeks and onto the floor.

"D-Do you mean it? Am I f-forgiven?" Charlotte asked, desperately hoping he wasn't lying. That people didn't hate her for what she did. Nor that people wanted to hurt her for it.

"For the most part, yes. The only people you have to worry about not liking you is Murphy and his little group of friends. As far as I know, everyone else in the camp has forgiven you." Monty said giving her a big smile, which comforted Charlotte as she stepped further out from behind Naruto's leg.

She smiled, honestly relieved that she had heard that. She was happy that only a few people hadn't forgiven her. The only people that hadn't, were Murphy, his group of friends, and herself.

Raven was sending Naruto and Clarke a look, telling them that she wanted to know what was going on, but Clarke and Naruto mouthed later, and they walked towards the duo and the radio. "So, is the radio fixed up? Will we be able to communicate with the arc?" Clarke asked, full of hope.

"Yes. We just have to turn this dial right here and find the right frequency. From all my time working on the arc, I remember it from the heart. It should be right about… here!" Raven exclaimed, and they all gained smiled, even Naruto when they heard people talking over walkies on the radio.

Raven picks up the walkie attacked to the radio and brings it up to her mouth. "Ground to Arc station! Do you copy? I repeat, ground to Arc station! do you copy?" Raven said, releasing the button, before waiting for a response.

It was silent for a total of thirty seconds, which they took as a bad sign. Suddenly though, they heard the voice of Abby. "Raven? Raven is that you?" The people in the dropship grow large smiled on their faces as they celebrate.

Raven brings the walkie to her face once again. "Yes, it's me, Abby. It's Raven. The ground is survivable! I repeat, the ground is survivable!" Raven said as a silence overcame the other side of the radio. What hey took for them not hearing anything, was actually Abby ordering for the stop of killing all the innocent people about to sacrifice their own lives.

Once that was finished, she returned to the radio. "That's fantastic!" Abby said, as all the people in the council room with her looked on with shocked and hopeful faces. "Raven, is Clarke there? Is Clarke there with you? Is the 100 alive?" Abby said, and everyone on the dropship looks to Clarke.

Clarke looked to Naruto, and he put a comforting hand on her shoulder. "I know you're mad at your mom right now Clarke, but she's still your mother. And I know you still love her, just as she loves you. Now go talk to your mother." Naruto said, giving her a light push on her back, which she complied with and approached the radio. Raven handing her the walkie.

She hesitantly brought the walkie up to her mouth as some tears formed in her eyes. "Mom." On the other side, Abby's eyes grew full on tearful the instant she heard Clarke's voice. "It's me, Mom. It's Clarke." A tear ran down Abby's eyes as she held onto the walkie like a lifeline.

"My baby girl," Abby said as everyone on the council smiled at the reunion of mother and daughter. "Is everyone else alright?" Abby said, and everyone on the council soon gained serious faces.

"For the most part, yes. In total, four have died. None of which are from the ground itself. Two died in the landing of the dropship. Once died from an acid fog. And the last one…" Clarke paused, not knowing what to say. "The last one, Wells, was killed," Clarke said, Charlotte tensing when she heard it.

On the arc, Jaha sat there with a broken look on his face, hearing his son was killed by somebody. Everyone on the council sent Jaha looks of pity and sympathy. Knowing that losing your child was like losing a part of yourself.

A minute later, Jaha's face steeled, deciding he had more important matter than grieving over his dead son. "What about Naruto? Is Naruto there with you?" Jaha asked, and there was a pause before they all heard the voice of a different person.

"Yes. I'm here. What do you need?" Naruto asked, genuinely curious about what they wanted from him.

The people of the council let out a sigh of relief. "Good. I just merely wanted to know if the Arc's most important asset, and the 100's greatest hope of surviving, was still alive." Jaha said, and Naruto rolled his eyes.

"I don't count on dying anytime soon chancellor. And believe me when I say, it would take a lot more than what has been happening to kill me." Naruto said, a smirk on his face that Clarke copied.

On the other side, Jaha let out a few chuckles. "Yes, that's good, that's good. What about Bellamy Blake? Is he there?" Jaha said, his face grew very serious. On the other side, Raven had a face of shock and realization while everyone else was confused.

"Yes. Why are interested in Bellamy?" Naruto asked, figuring now would be when he found out why Bellamy didn't want the arc coming down to the ground so bad. But what he heard next was not what he expected.

"Because. Mr. Blake shot me before boarding the dropship and going down to the ground with the rest of the 100." Jaha said, and Clarke, Monty, and Charlotte let out a gasp from behind him, while Naruto merely raised an eyebrow.

"Do you know what his motive was?" Naruto asked, although he already had a good guess, but didn't know if the arc had figured it out.

"We believe we do yes. We believe he did it, so he could get on the dropship and protect his sister. What we want to know, is how he got the gun. As you may or may not know, only people from the guard has access to the guns. And Bellamy was a janitor." Jaha said, and Naruto nodded.

So, they weren't after Bellamy himself, but rather the information he held. "That's all well and good sir. But I doubt you'll get the information from him. At least, not without giving him something in return." Naruto said, surprising the people in the dropship as well as the arc.

"And what do you mean by that?" Jaha asked although he had an inkling to what it was.

"Well, I'm just saying that if I was Bellamy. I wouldn't give away the information for free. If he's smart, which Bellamy is, he'll demand he be pardoned in exchange for the information of how he got the gun to shoot you." Naruto said, surprising everyone that heard him.

"I wish it was that easy, but he shot me. The chancellor. That's not something I can just pardon." Jaha said, with the council agreeing.

"It was to my understanding that there is no special treatment on the arc. So, it shouldn't matter if your chancellor. And besides, he was just trying to protect his little sister. The only thing he has left in his life. You can't exactly blame him for that. And not to mention, you're still alive. I'd just be happy he was a lousy shot." Naruto said, getting a snort of amusement from Raven and Clarke.

"Hmmm, you have a point. Okay, I chancellor Jaha, pardon Bellamy Blake from his crimes. Now you Naruto will go get Bellamy Blake and he will tell us who the traitor amongst us on the arc is." Jaha said, and Naruto nodded.

"You have my word. All we have to do is wait for him to return to camp. He should be here in another hour." Naruto said Jaha nodded on the other side of the radio, not that he could see it.

"Very well. Now may I ask, who was my son killed by." Jaha asked, and Naruto didn't even so much as flinch.

"I will tell you, but you will not so much as touch her. And if you do chancellor, you will regret it." Naruto said, his voice low and threatening. Sending a chill down all the council's spine.

"Why would you protect my son's killer? They murdered someone!" Jaha demanded.

"Because the person that did so didn't realize what she was doing. She was suffering from mental trauma. Ever night, this little girl would have nightmares about you floating her parents, seeing their dead bodies floating through space, before seeing the face of Wells in the nightmare, and finally waking up screaming. Every single night she went to sleep."

There was a pause before Naruto continued. "Then, one day, someone heard her screaming, and told her to get rid of her nightmare, she had to slay her demons. Her unstable mind misinterpreted those words, taking it as she had to kill your son to get rid of her nightmares."

"And that little girl just wanting to finally be free of the prison that was her nightmares, did whatever she had to get rid of them. Now, that little girl doesn't go a second of the day regretting what she did. She's already suffered her punishment." Naruto said, indirectly answering Raven's earlier question about what was going on with Charlotte.

There was a long silence on the other side before finally, Jaha spoke again. "I see. Would it be possible for me to talk to said little girl? I'd like to apologize for the pain I have caused her." Jaha said, and Naruto looked back at Charlotte, who was looking at him nervously.

Naruto nodded to here, and she slowly came up to him. "Hey, everything will be alright. Remember, I promised you I would never let anyone hurt you. And you remember what's so special about my promises. Right?" Naruto said, and Clarke nodded her head.

"Yes. You never break them." Charlotte said, as she grabbed the walkie from Naruto, Naruto wrapping his hand around the hand on the radio, in order to comfort her further. She nervously brought the walkie to her mouth. With shaky hands, she pressed the button to talk to the arc.

"H-Hello?" Charlotte said, her voice shaky and breaking. Clarke came up behind her, kneeled down, and started playing with the hair she French braided just this morning. Charlotte instinctively relaxing.

"Hello. May I ask who this is?" Jaha asked, his voice soft and trying to not sound in the least bit hateful. He'd be lying if he said he didn't hold resentment for this person. The person that killed his son. But Jaha blamed himself more than anyone else.

"C-Charlotte," Charlotte said, still stuttering, tough her hand stopped shaking when Clarke started playing with her hair.

"Ah, I remember you. You're the little girl with the long blonde hair." Jaha said although it didn't help Charlotte relax in the slightest.

"I realize that I have caused you a great deal of pain in your life Charlotte. And for that, I am sincerely sorry, and I know there is nothing I can do to repay you for what I've done. All I can do is give you my forgiveness. And, hereby pardon you of all your crimes." Jaha said, surprising the people on the arc.

Tears streamed Charlotte's face hearing the words that she was official pardoned and forgiven for what she did. She crashed into Naruto, giving him a bear hug. Naruto smiled and returned the hug. They stayed in that hug until Naruto saw Bellamy walk into the dropship.

He looked to the radio with a scowl and started walking towards it with his hand on his axe. Naruto released Charlotte from the hug and interrupted Bellamy halfway there. "Get out of my way Naruto, or I will make you," Bellamy said, starting to draw his axe.

"Settle down Bellamy. We already know what you did. You shot the chancellor." Naruto said, and Bellamy attempted to grab Naruto with his other hand but ended up in a half nelson. "I said settle down. Just let me finish. I know that you shot the chancellor, and you have been pardoned." Naruto said, and Bellamy instantly stopped struggling and froze.

"W-What?" Bellamy asked, not believing what his ears just told him.

"I said, you've been pardoned. I talked to Jaha and got you pardoned. All you have to do is tell him who gave you the gun to shoot him, and you're free." Naruto said, releasing Bellamy from the half nelson, Bellamy rolling his shoulder a few times to try and get rid of the aching it had from being put in a half nelson.

"Are you telling the truth? Am I really pardoned if I tell Jaha who gave me the gun?" Bellamy asked, and got a nod in response.

"I swear it," Naruto said, and Bellamy nodded and walked over to the radio. He grabbed the walkie and brought it to his mouth. He pushed the button in, his palms sweating.

"Hello?" Bellamy said, the arc confused when they heard a new voice on the radio.

"Hello, this is chancellor Jaha. Who are you?" Jaha said, confused about what was happening. He thought he was talking to Charlotte.

"Bellamy Blake," Bellamy said, shocking the council members to their core. Talking on the other side of the walkie is the person who shot the chancellor just a week ago.

"Ah, I have been looking forward to talking to you for a long time. I'm sure Naruto has already told you, but you, Bellamy Blake, have been pardoned of all your crimes, at the cost of you telling me right now who gave you the gun to shoot me with." Jaha said.

And without a second's hesitation, Bellamy revealed who the person was, and everything else that the person had told him. Kane had the guard go and arrest the man, planning on floating him soon, and was successful in the capture.

"I thank you for everything you have told us. And I, Chancellor Jaha, officially pardon you, Bellamy Blake, from all your crimes." Jaha said, bringing a smile to his face before it dropped when he realized something.

"Hey Naruto, have you seen Octavia at all today?" Bellamy asked, and Naruto did a quick search for Octavia's chakra, finding it around three miles away from camp. Naruto's eyes widened, cursing himself for not realizing it sooner.

"No. Come on, let's go find her. I'm going to get a few things and then meet you at the gate." Naruto said, and Bellamy nodded before walking out of the dropship. Clarke looked at him, remembering him telling her she could pinpoint her and Octavia's chakra from hundreds of miles away.

"Is Octavia okay?" Clarke asked, knowing that Naruto knew exactly where she was. Naruto shook his head, and Clarke's stomach dropped.

He leaned in, making his voice low so only Clarke would hear him. "She's been kidnapped. She's fine for the moment, but she is three miles away from camp." Naruto said, and Clarke stifled her gasp. "Don't worry, I'll bring her back before you know it."

Naruto leaned back, planting a quick kiss on her lips, surprising Raven and Monty, before grabbing the walkie. "Unfortunately, it appears one of our people have been kidnapped by the other people on the ground. I'm going to be leaving and leading a search party to find her. Clarke will explain to you everything that has happened on the ground." Naruto said, the arc shocked and bewildered when he said there were other people besides them on the ground.

Once Naruto said that he left the dropship, going to the gate and finding a group of people ready for the search party. Finn one of those people. He guessed Bellamy wanted more than one tracker in the group.

Bellamy approached Naruto and put his hand on his shoulder. "I know you're the head of external affairs, and I have no right to say this, but I want you with me. You're the best tracker in the camp, and I need to find my sister as soon as possible." Bellamy said, and Naruto internally groaned.

"Sorry Bellamy, but I will find your sister faster if I'm alone. Trust me on this. I will have your sister back before you know it. Take this." Naruto said, pulling out one of his Flying Thunder God kunais to him. Bellamy looked at the kunai in awe.

"If you get in trouble, stab it into the ground. I know that what I just said confuses you, but just trust me. If you run into trouble, stab it in the ground." Naruto said, and Bellamy nodded, giving Naruto a thank you before watching him jump off into the trees and start traveling at speeds his eyes couldn't keep up with.

A few seconds into Naruto's run to Octavia's location, he felt her chakra starting to be used. It was a minimal usage, and Naruto assumed she was unconsciously using it in for something. The most likely scenario, to help heal her body or try to break free from her captor.

Naruto clicked his tongue in annoyance when in just ten seconds, she had used up enough chakra to make him not able to track her down anymore. All he had now was the general direction in which the chakra was coming from.

He spent the next ten minutes searching for any signs of her until finally, he found some footsteps. He followed the footsteps until he heard someone blow a horn, and he looked around in confusion.

Unbeknownst to him, half a mile behind him, Bellamy and the rest of the ground had a confrontation with the grounders but were saved when the horn was blown, and the grounders ran off.

Naruto turned back to the footsteps and continued following them to the source. Along the way, he had to take cover and watched as several of the grounders ran past him, looking for some sort of cover. He guessed that the horn that was blown had something to do with that.

This delayed him in his venture by two minutes, as he did not feel like alerting them to his presence, nor did he want to fight them, as they had done nothing wrong in his eyes. Although he didn't know that only a few minutes ago, these same people killed five of his people.

As the grounders got up and returned to where they were previously, Naruto got out of his hiding and went back to following the trail he was following. The further he followed the trail, the harder the trail became to follow.

Although he purposefully left an obvious trail for Finn to follow in case he was following him. It's not that he needed their help, but rather he needed a cover on how he found Octavia. He didn't mind showing off some of his powers but being able to track people like Octavia and Clarke from hundreds of miles was not one of them.

It took him another five minutes before finally finding a cave. And from the sounds, he was hearing about a minute or so away. A ground of people was behind him, running along the trail he had left.

Naruto silently entered the cave, not making a single noise. When he entered fully, he saw Octavia trying to unlock herself from chains and that her captor was currently knocked out on the floor. He made himself known and whistled when he saw the unconscious grounder.

"You did a number on him. Didn't you." Naruto said, Octavia, jumping and holding up a rock, ready to fight until she noticed it was Naruto. A few seconds later, the rest of the group arrived and looked at the scene.

Bellamy came to the front of the group and approached his sister. He helped her out of her chains. Once she was, she hugged Bellamy, relieved she was saved from being held captive.

Meanwhile, the grounder woke up but played dead. Waiting for his opportunity to strike. "We should probably go before he wakes up," Octavia says, but Bellamy had different plans.

"He's not going to wake up," Bellamy said, approaching the grounder, who was currently having his pulse checked by Naruto. Octavia tried to stop Bellamy from grabbing a spear but failed to do so.

"We're not killing him, Bellamy," Naruto said, his tone leaving no room for bullshit.

"To hell if we're not! His people just killed five of our people! Five of your people!" Bellamy said, approaching the believed unconscious grounder.

"And those kills were justified. We entered their territory unannounced. That gives them all rights to respond. We would have done the same if they came into our camp unannounced." Naruto said, but Bellamy disagreed, going to stab the grounder in the chest, but stopped when the grounder moved, stabbed Naruto in the chest, before tackling Bellamy.

Naruto looked down at the knife in announce. Did the guy really have to stab him? Like come on, he was trying to help him, he even knew the guys were awake, and yet he stabbed him. Naruto sighed, standing up and walking over to the grounder that was wrestling Bellamy for the spear.

He ignored Octavia's shouts to the grounder about how he was her brother and chopped him in the back of the neck. The grounders eyes rolled as he fell to the ground unconscious. And would be unconscious for a long while.

They left the cave, nobody realizing the Naruto had been stabbed, and Naruto forgetting altogether since the stab felt more like a mosquito bite to him. They all looked to Octavia, who was being helped walk by Bellamy and Finn when she gasped and let out a shriek.

Octavia pointed to Naruto, or more specifically, the knife embedded in his chest. Naruto looked down, looking at the knife that he had all but forgotten about. "Oh yeah, I forgot that was in there," Naruto said as he grabbed it and pulled it out. A line of blood following the knife as it was ripped out of his chest.

Everyone was about to yell at him for being stupid until they watched before their very eyes as the stab mark turned to unblemished skin in just a matter of two seconds. The poison that was on the knife flushed from Naruto's system the second wound was healed.

Naruto sighed before throwing the knife into a nearby tree, the whole knives blade embedding itself into the tree. Making it a very heard knife to pull out. "Well, now that that's taken care of, can we get back to camp now?" Naruto said as he continued to walk through the woods.

The rest of the group stared at Naruto with shocked eyes. Not believing their eyes. The only sign of him ever being stabbed was the blood on his shirt. The rest of the walk back to camp, everyone walked in silence with all of them every now and then taking glances at the spot where there was supposed to be a stab wound on Naruto's body.

When they arrived at the camp, they brought Octavia to Clarke to check on her leg wound and see if it would need to be treated. Luckily, it was doing fine for the moment, and by what she could see and feel, the leg was healing properly.

"Is their anyone else who got injured?" Clarke asked, looking around but saw no one was hurt, although some of them were missing. She assumed those people were too far gone to be healed.

Finn stepped forward, a scowl on his face. "Yea, Naruto was stabbed," Finn said, Clarke, ignored him completely and looked to Naruto in a panic, looking over his body and seeing the blood stain on his shirt. She approached him in a hurry, intent on healing the wound.

"You're not going to find a wound. Not even five seconds after he pulled the knife out of his chest, the wound healed completely as if he was never stabbed in the first place." Finn said, sending a suspicious glare at Naruto.

Naruto smirked, sending Finn a mocking look, while Clarke looked at Naruto in disbelief. She couldn't believe that he would allow for so many people to see some of what he was capable of. Although she herself was surprised he could heal from a stab wound so fast, she wouldn't say she wasn't expecting it.

After all, this is the same person that can bring people back from the dead, even if it cost him his own life. She grabbed his arm and started to pull Naruto away from the group, which he allowed. "I'm going to talk to him for a moment," Clarke said, and when she was alone with him, she sent him a glare.

"What were you thinking? Showing people, you could heal from a stab wound in just a few seconds?! They're going to start to question if you're even human!" Clarke said, to which Naruto nodded. He saw where she was coming from but disagreed with her views on it.

"That's what I'm hoping for. The people who saw it and won't be able to keep their mouths shut will start rumors about how their head of external affairs shrugged off a stab from a knife, and it healed in just a few seconds." Naruto said.

"In a matter of a day, everyone in camp will have heard of it. Once they do, they will look at me differently. Yes, they will question if I'm human, but will also know that I'm stronger than I lead on. And in times like these, people look to the strongest person in their group as their leader. And currently, Bellamy and the other people in this camp, aren't smart enough to be a leader and keep us alive."

"They would wage war on the grounders, which would result in us being killed, or me having to slaughter every last grounder alive, and I'd rather not do that. So, I'm slowly taking complete control from Bellamy, and then I will make peace with the grounders. If the grounders refuse to see reason, then we will go to war. But war is only a last resort. Only when they declare war on us, will we declare war on them." Naruto said, to which Clarke nodded.

She saw where he was coming from. And it was correct in a way, Bellamy and the others would try and wage war on the grounders. And without Naruto, that's a war they wouldn't win. But that didn't help the fact that the people of the camp would look at Naruto as something that wasn't human.

"And if the camp starts seeing you as a monster?" Clarke asked, to which Naruto scowled.

"They won't," Naruto said, getting a glare from Clarke.

"How do you know they won't. They are going to look at you as different. People criticize the different Naruto! That's a simple fact." Clarke said, to which Naruto shook his head.

"If they start seeing me as a monster, then I will prove I'm not. It's just that simple." Naruto said, to which Clarke released a sigh of frustration. She knew Naruto wouldn't budge on this subject.

"Fine. It's your funeral." Clarke said, storming away and back to the hut. Naruto went to the dropship to get Charlotte before going back to the hut. It was about time for dinner, and he should probably try and calm Clarke down.

When he arrived at the hut, he sent Charlotte inside while he cooked the meat he had in a storage scroll. Same as before, he created a clone to get berries while he cooked the meat. As he entered the hut with dinner, he saw Clarke sitting on the floor with what seemed to be a permeant scowl on her face.

Charlotte was sitting on her bed, snuggling with Bee as she waited for the food. When he entered the hut, he garnered both of their attention. "Dinners done," Naruto said as he sat in the same spot they sat this morning and put all three plates of food down.

They ate in silence, Charlotte recognizing the tension in the air, and Clarke's scowl not leaving her face. Halfway through dinner, Naruto turned to look at Clarke, to which she looked the other way. "How long are you going to stay mad?" Naruto asked, annoyed.

"As long as I want," Clarke said, eating her food and refusing to meet his gaze. Naruto released a frustrated sigh while shaking his head.

"I get that you disagree with what I allowed for those people to see, but I don't see anything wrong with it. Besides, even if they do start seeing me as a monster like you say they might, I can prove them wrong." Naruto said, to which Clarke snapped her head to him with a glare.

"How? You showed them you could heal from a stab wound completely, in 2 seconds. They are going to want to know how! They're going to question if your human! How are you going to prove to them that you aren't different than them?" Clarke yelled.

Naruto sighed. "Well, for one, a monster wouldn't be helping them out. Some of the people, however, will be too narrow-minded until I prove it. The best way to do that is to help them, gain their trust. And I'm doing that by handling the situation with the grounders."

Clarke continued to glare at him, not budging from her position on this subject. "I still don't like it. What if you can't change their minds. What if they decide they don't want your help." Clarke said, to which Naruto sighed again.

"Those are only 'what if's'. You can't live your life, living by what could happen. You have to live it by what does happen. What's happened, had happened. I can't change what I've done, and even if I had the chance, I wouldn't." Naruto said, to which Clarke still didn't let up with glaring at him.

"But, if you want to go with the 'what if's', then how about this? What if they decide that I'm a deity? What if they decide that I'm the, 'chosen one' because of my powers. What if this doesn't change anything at all? There is an infinite possibility of what could happen Clarke. Living by what could happen, instead of what does happen, isn't truly living."

Clarke finally stopped glaring at him, huffing and going back to eating her food with a passion. "Fine. But if it does happen, then you'll have no one to blame but yourself. And I'll have full rights to tell you I told you so." Clarke said, and Naruto nodded.

"Fine, but it's not going to happen. Now, I need to get back to camp. I want to start training Bellamy." Naruto said, and Clarke looked to Naruto with hope.

"When do I start my training?" Clarke said with barely restrained hope. Eager to start her training and become stronger.

"You can come if you'd like. But just be prepared to experience utter hell." Naruto said, and Clarke gulped as a shiver ran down her spine. Charlotte sat to the side, witnessing all of this, and confused about a lot of the stuff that was going on.

Naruto and Clarke then left the hut and went back to the camp. They looked around for Bellamy for a few minutes but couldn't find him anywhere, not even his tent, so they went to the dropship. When they arrived, they heard his voice coming from the second floor.

They climbed up the latter and were shocked when they found Bellamy and a few of his men interrogating the grounder that stabbed him earlier. Naruto also noticed that the grounder was bleeding from his head and seemed to be trying to clutch his ribs.

Naruto sighed, shaking his head. "What the hell do you think you're doing?" Naruto said, gaining the attention of everyone on the second floor of the dropship. Bellamy looked to Naruto with a scowl.

"What does it look like I'm doing. I'm doing what you didn't have the balls to do." Bellamy said, the two people with him wearing smirks.

Naruto ignored the jibe. "Get out. We're not torturing grounders." Naruto said, taking notice of the grounders shocked expression.

"And why not? His people killed our people!" Bellamy yelled, and Naruto shook his head again.

"We trespassed on their land. They have full rights to do what they want at that point. If they came running into camp or nearby it, we would do the same thing to them." Naruto said, approaching the grounder.

"Yet he kidnapped Octavia. And she was just a mile outside of camp when he did so. He got what was deserved." Bellamy said, and finally, Naruto was beside Bellamy, looking at him with a glare.

"But that's not your decision, is it?" Naruto said, to which Bellamy smirked.

"Wrong, he's in the camp. So, he's in my jurisdiction." Bellamy said, thinking he had Naruto cornered.

"No, your jurisdiction is internal affairs. And you said it yourself, this person is not one of us. So that would make his external. MY jurisdiction." Naruto said, taking joy in Bellamy's smirk dropping.

"Now get out! Before I throw you out." Naruto said, and Bellamy scowled before stomping out of the dropship, followed by his two men. Naruto turned around, looking at Clarke. "You too Clarke. I want to be alone with this person." Naruto said, earning a worried stare from Clarke.

"Don't worry, I'm not going to harm this guy in any way," Naruto said, and Clarke nodded hesitantly before leaving the second floor. Once she left, Naruto turned and looked at the grounder.

"Now, I know you speak English," Naruto said, getting no reaction from the grounder. "I saw it when I said we weren't going to torture you. You were shocked. If you didn't understand English, you wouldn't have been shocked." Naruto said, still not getting a reaction out of the grounder.

"If you don't want to talk, that's fine. I get it. Now I did tell Clarke that I wouldn't hurt you. But I never said anything about the people you care for. Take Octavia for example," Naruto said and watched as the grounder clenched his fist.

"If you don't want to talk, I'll just break your mind by torturing the people you care for. I could start with Octavia, then maybe to some of your people, till finally torturing the children of your people. All right in front of you." Naruto said, and smirked when the grounder started to try lunging at him.

"Settle down, I wouldn't even dream of torturing your people, yet alone Octavia. I just needed to know for sure that you could understand me." Naruto said, getting a shocked look from the grounder.

"Now that I do know, let's get this started," Naruto said, approaching the grounder. That night, a lot of things would change.
