We're Going to War
(Clarkes POV)
We had been tracking the invaders for quite some time now, slowly stalking them in the trees. For some reason I couldn't take my eyes off of the tall one. His hair was black as night and he had beautiful brown eyes. He seemed so familiar yet I couldn't place where I had seen him before. I chalked it up to I must have hunted him before I lost my memory.
They were tracking a deer, quite pathetically if I say so myself. They were being too loud, too obvious.
They had stopped for a second so I took my shot. I pulled my arrow back and aimed for the dark haired boy. "Aria" someone said behind me. I let loose the arrow but missed my shot because of Linken.
I sighed and the boy screamed out "grounders!"
I rolled my eyes at the stupid name they had given us. We were here first they were invaders!
The boy lifted some sort of weird contraption and a loud noise rang out and my friends started falling from the trees.
"Aria run!" Linken called. I took off running through the trees. I jumped from tree to tree never slowing down. I looked behind me for Linken but didn't see him. I turned around and saw him running away from an Invader. I cursed and watched as the Invader tackled him to the ground. I jumped down from my tree and ran at him. I tackled the boy to the ground and pushed myself up and started running again.
I could hear the boy closing in on me and then he had a hold of the back of my neck. He forced me back against a tree and I gasped in pain. I stared up and him and waited for him to cut my throat like they did to all grounders. "Clarke?" he asked. I stared at him puzzled. I opened my mouth to tell him that I wasn't this 'Clarke' he spoke of but I was cut off when he smashed his mouth down on mine. I gasped and pushed against him. He forced me back against the tree and tried to stick his tongue in my mouth. 'Okay enough of that' I thought and smashed my fist into the side of his head. He let go of me and stumbled back in shock. "Clarke… It's me" he said.
"My name is not Clarke!" I shot.
He looked shocked.
"My name is Aria" I spoke. He gasped "no, no your Clarke! My Clarke! I have spent the past 2 months searching for you!"
I shook my head "I am not her" I said.
He took a step towards me and I moved away from the tree and from him.
"Clarke what are you talking about?" he asked.
I took another step away from him "stop calling me that! My name is Aria!" I yelled.
I blinked and suddenly I was no longer standing covered in paint and mud. I was sitting against a tree with Bellamy a few feet away and it was night time.
Dax lay dead a few feet away. Bellamy crawled towards her beaten bloody.
"You're okay" I said in comfort.
"No I'm not. My mother if she knew what I'd done, who I am. She raised me to be better, to be good…"
"Bellamy…" I breathed
"And all I do is hurt people. I'm a monster" a tear rolled down his cheek.
"Hey. You saved my life today and you may be a total ass half the time… but… I need you. We all need you! None of us would have survived this place if it wasn't for you!" I said. Bellamy turned away from me.
"You want forgiveness? Fine I'll give it to you you're forgiven! Okay? But you can't run Bellamy! You have to come back with me!"
Bellamy turned to me and stared into my eyes looking for something. I opened my mouth to continue but he cut me off by kissing me. He wrapped his hand in my hair and pulled me to him and I melted. I kissed him back and let him pull me towards him. He only stopped when I cried out in pain because of my ribs. "You okay Princess?" he asked.
"Urgh. I think that asshole broke a rib or two" I said. Bellamy frowned and stood up "we should…." And then the picture faded and I was back in the forest with my short hair and covered in paint. I brought my hands up to my head and cried "what is happening?"
Bellamy looked confused "I'm taking you back to camp" he said.
"I'm not going anywhere with you Invader!" I spat.
"Invader? Clarke we're not invaders you know this!" Bellamy yelled.
"My name isn't Clarke!" I yelled. Bellamy made a move to grab me and I punched him. I ran and quickly climbed a tree knowing he couldn't follow. I ran along the branches and then I heard the bang. I looked down and saw a girl with a smoking gun pointed at me. I looked down at my wound and saw blood pouring out of my leg. I buckled from the pain and fell.
(Bellamy's POV)
I watched Clarke run away from me. I had spent months searching for her and she didn't even know who I am. I shook my head and ran after her. I saw her climb a tree and disappear "fuck!" I swore. I could only track her because of the swaying branches that showed where she was running.
I had to admit I was impressed by this new Princess.
I ran under the trees following her movement and that's when I heard the shot. I turned to see Monroe pointing her gun at where Clarke was. The barrel was smoking and I knew she had shot her.
She moved to pull the trigger again when I yelled "Monroe don't shoot! It's Clarke!"
She dropped the gun and stared up into the tree. Clarke fell through the branches I ran to her and caught her before she could hit the ground.
"Clarke?" Monroe asked.
I nodded "it's her" I said.
Monroe shook her head "she was trying to kill us Bellamy! Clarke would never do that!"
"I don't think she remembers who she is" I said.
"You think they brainwashed her?" she asked.
I looked down at Clarke who had passed out. "I don't know Monroe. We have to get her back to camp" I said. Monroe looked shocked "Bellamy if she doesn't remember who she is she could be lethal! She was just trying to kill us!" Monroe yelled.
"You don't think I know that? We'll tie her up and keep her under surveillance until we know what's going on!" I yelled back.
Monroe sighed "well we better get back then" and walked off.
I rolled my eyes and walked back with Clarke in my arms.
"Open the gates it's Bellamy!" someone yelled. The gates slowly opened for me and I carried Clarke inside. Octavia ran up to us and asked "who the hell is that?"
I stared down at Clarke and said "it's Clarke"
Octavia gasped and said "what happened to her leg?"
"Monroe shot her" I stated. Octavia fumed and I could see the rage in her eyes "Monroe didn't know it was Clarke O!" I said trying to calm her down.
"We need to heal that!" she said. I nodded and Octavia started walking towards the medical bay.
"Octavia!" I called her back. She walked over to me 'Oh boy she isn't going to be happy' I thought.
"Octavia I need to keep her under lock down which means you'll have to heal her in the bunker" I said.
"Oh you mean the dungeon where we keep prisoners?" she spat "Clarke isn't a prisoner and I refuse to treat her like one"
I let out a breath and whispered "she doesn't remember who she is O"
She took a step back "what do you mean?"
"When I grabbed her she told me that she wasn't Clarke. She called herself Aria" I said "she was hunting us".
Octavia looked down at Clarke and sighed "I'll get the supplies and meet you down there"
I nodded and walked off. I walked into the room where we had been keeping our prisoners. The room was empty right now and I was thankful. I laid her down on a bed we had put in there in case we had to heal any of the prisoners. I sighed and tied her down. "Come back to me Clarke" I breathed and lightly kissed her. I saw her eyes flutter open and I pulled away. She tugged on the ropes that were binding her wrists and she stared at me looking angry.
"Where am I?" she demanded.
"You're home now Clarke" I said calmly.
She rolled her eyes "I am not Clarke! My name is Aria as I keep telling you!" she pulled her wrists again.
She started to kick her legs a bit and more blood flowed from her wound.
"Damnit Clarke stop moving around you're going to kill yourself!" I yelled and grabbed her legs forcing her to stop.
She glared at me "you made a mistake taking me invader!" she spat "my sister will come for you!"
I looked at her puzzled "your sister?" I asked.
She smiled wickedly "Oh you didn't know? My sister Anya! The leader of my people" she said triumphantly.
I swore and Octavia walked in carrying medical supplies.
Octavia smiled at Clarke "Hey" she said.
Clarke glared at her "I don't know you" she said.
Octavia looked surprised and then sad. She walked over besides Clarke and sat down.
"This will hurt" Octavia said. Clarke pulled against the ropes "get the fuck away from me!" she yelled.
Octavia looked sad "I have to heal this Clarke!" she said.
"My name is Aria!" she spat. Octavia looked at me and said "hold her down"
I nodded and grabbed Clarke's hip and leg and forced her to stay down. Octavia quickly stitched Clarke up and left without saying another thing.
"Clarke…" I started to say.
"My name isn't Clarke!" she interrupted. I rested my hand on her shoulder and she struggled trying to get me off. She twisted her wrists in their bindings and I looked at how red and raw her wrists were.
"Clarke! What have you done?" I asked grabbing her wrists.
"Aria! My name is Aria" she yelled.
I rolled my eyes "fine! Aria! Stop hurting yourself!" I yelled back at her.
She stopped fighting and threw her head down to the mattress. I leaned down and kissed her wrist. She glared at me "who are you?" she asked.
"I'm Bellamy… you know that" I said.
She looked at me and I could see the old Clarke peeking through.
"I mean who are you to me? Did I know you before I got amnesia or something?"
I stared down at her in shock "amnesia?" I asked.
She stared at me "yeah. My sister told me that on one of my hunting trips I was attacked and I lost my memories"
I sighed and sat back in my chair. "They reprogramed you" I said.
She looked at me puzzled "what do you mean they reprogramed me?" she asked.
I sat up "your name is Clarke Griffin; you were once one of us, one of the 100. One day I and you were attacked and you were taken prisoner. I guess you hit your head or something and lost your memory"
I laughed and kissed Clarke. She struggled against me but slowly opened herself up to me.
"Bellamy…?" she whispered.
I nodded "yes… yes… It's me" I smiled against her lips.
"I remember that night in the woods with Dax. Bellamy I'm starting to remember" she smiled.
I laughed and kissed her again passionately. At one point I had cut the ropes that had bound her to the bed and she wrapped her hand around my neck.
I didn't feel it at first but then the pain was there. Clarke had stabbed me in my back with a blade she had concealed. I gasped and fell to the floor.
She stared at me and said "I'm sorry" and then she ran away.
(Clarke's POV)
I saw my chance and I took it. He trusted me with the one memory I had gotten back and he would regret that. I let him kiss me and I wrapped my hand around his neck. A part of me never wanted to break that kiss but I had to get back to my sister. I grabbed the blade from my boot and stabbed him in his back close to his hip. He looked down at me hurt and anger written across his face. I wanted to cry but I had to leave. My sister had warned me that they would do this if they ever took me. I pushed him off me and said "I'm sorry" and I ran.
I sprinted down the hallway and out a door. Thankfully it was night and I was able to sneak away without any problems.
I traveled fast. I soon found myself back at my camp. I pushed open the gate and found that it was in chaos. My sister was screaming at people for letting the invaders take me.
"Anya!" I yelled. She turned and ran to me. She threw her arms around me and said "you're safe! I was so scared Aria!"
I hugged her back "I'm home now. It's going to be okay"
(Octavia's POV)
I went to check Clarke and found my brother face down groaning with a knife sticking out of his back.
"Shit!" I said and ran over to him. I pulled the blade out of his back and quickly had him stitched up.
"What happened?" I asked.
"She tricked me! I wanted to trust her so badly and I let it cloud my judgment. She's gone" Bellamy answered.
"Fuck!" I yelled.
Bellamy groaned "I think the blade was poisoned" he said.
I looked the blade over and saw some sort of substance mixed with his blood and it was bubbling.
"I'll talk to Linken he'll have a cure" I said.
Bellamy groaned and said "don't you dare! Don't go near him!"
I rolled my eyes and walked out. Bellamy started calling for me but I kept walking. When I reached Linken's lair he had his back facing me.
"Linken I need your help" I said. He turned to face me and looked to the blade I had in my hand.
"Shit! You weren't stabbed were you?" he asked. I shook my head and he let out a breath looking relieved.
"But my brother was. I need a cure Linken my brother is dying" I said.
Linken swore "Octavia each of us have a different poison for our blades that only we alone know the cure for. I had the cure for Finn because I stabbed him with my knife, that is not mine"
I started to shake "then who has the cure?" I asked.
"Aria" he said.
"Can you get it from her?" I asked.
"Maybe, I don't know! I'll try!" he said and walked out. I stared at the knife and threw it and watched as it lodged itself in the wall.
'Fuck' I thought and walked back to camp. I hadn't been gone that long but Bellamy's condition had gotten ten times worse. I swore and started to put damp cloths on his head to bring his temperature down. "Clarke…" he said.
"No Bell. It's Octavia" I said in a soothing voice.
"Need… to…find…Clarke..." he said.
I sighed and he continued talking "need…to…tell…love…her" he said sleepily.
I smiled. 'I was right he does love her' I thought to myself. I leaned down and said "when you get better I promise we'll find Clarke together and you can tell her that!"
Bellamy smiled and rolled over onto his side. I laughed and cried all at once. Where was Linken? Where was the cure? Where was Clarke? Where was Clarke with the cure? It was getting to be too much!
I leaned my head down to rest on Bellamy's shoulder and cried.
