~Chapter 5: The Kidnapping~

"You're coming with me," Clarke said, approaching Kai. Kai raised her eyebrows. "You need to get away from Bellamy, and I need to get away from camp. It's a win win situation."

"Clarke…"

"Look, I need more herbs, and you and Octavia are the only ones I actually want to talk to in this camp. Octavia is busy, so you're my best hope. Please," Clarke begged. Kai sighed, and nodded. "Thank you. Now let's go distract the guards." Kai kept her knife with her, while Clarke did the same. They approached the two guards who were by the exit, and told them that Bellamy was yelling for them. And if Bellamy was yelling for you, then you went. They were able to successfully sneak out of the camp, and hid themselves in the trees till they were a safe distance away. As they walked in silence, they savoured the peace they had.

"I'm really glad I agreed to do this," Kai said. "I feel like I can finally breathe properly."

"I know. There are so many responsibilities in the camp, and sometimes you just need a break." They walked a little longer till Clarke finally spotted the herbs that they needed. They cut some off, and put them in the small bag that Clarke had brought along. They were on their way back to camp, when suddenly Kai felt something against the back of her head.

"Clarke…" she said, before the darkness consumed her.

~ours~

"WHERE THE FUCK ARE THEY?!" Bellamy bellowed at everyone in the camp. "THERE ARE 90 FUCKING PEOPLE IN THIS CAMP, AND NOT A SINGLE ONE KNOWS WHERE CLARKE AND KAI ARE!"

Octavia, Jasper, Monty and Miller were trailing behind Bellamy trying to calm him down.

"Don't tell me to fucking calm down. My co-leader and girl…Kai are missing," Bellamy said.

"Then we'll go find them. Look, Miller and Raven will hold down the fort, they are your deputies, while Jasper, you and I go and look for them. Okay?" Octavia told him.

"You're not coming," he said.

"Like hell I'm not. Look, I know Clarke and Kai better than you do, maybe not better than Jasper does, but better than you do, and I know someone who can help us," Octavia said.

"Fine, but you stay by me at all times. Got it?" Octavia just rolled her eyes, but nodded. They gathered their weapons and what they would need and set off for their journey. Octavia guided them to an area that was unknown to them, but well known to Octavia apparently.

"How do you know this place?" Bellamy asked. Octavia looked at him wearily before answering.

"I've come here before, with Clarke and Kai," Octavia answered honestly.

"You…WHAT?" Bellamy exclaimed.

"I know you're mad. But it's always safe, we have knives with us, and we're always in good company," Octavia said, unconsciously exaggerating the last part.

"Company…?" Jasper asked, but before Octavia could answer, someone jumped out of a tree. Octavia let out a small squeal, while the rest of them held up their guns.

"Don't shoot!" Octavia exclaimed. "God Lincoln, what the hell? Why must you do that?"

"Sorry, force of habit," he grunted out, but they could see the corner of his lips turning upwards.

"Haha, laugh all you want," Octavia said, rolling her eyes. Bellamy cleared his throat, not in the mood for the cosy catch up that was happening. "Oh yeah. Okay, Bell don't be mad, but…Clarke, Kai and I have been coming out here to visit Lincoln."

"WHAT?"

"Just hear me out okay? Look, he's a nice guy. He got banished from his village for helping us out, so we've been bringing him a couple of supplies. He saved us, then got banished, he really didn't deserve that, especially since he has been tortured. This is our little spot where he's been explaining different things to the three of us," Octavia explained.

"And why did you bring us here?" Jasper asked.

"If anyone can help us find Clarke and Kai, it's him." Lincoln's face adorned a look of confusion.

"Clarke and Kai are missing?" Lincoln asked. Octavia nodded.

"They went out to collect herbs, and they haven't come back for some time. We're worried that some Grounders may have taken them," Octavia told him. Worry and annoyance crossed his face.

"You should have come to me sooner," he said. "I have some idea of who took them."

~ours~

"What do you want with us?" Clarke asked. But she was just backhanded.

"Pay respect, we haven't killed you yet," growled one of them. The group of Grounders moved out of the way and a tall woman stood in the middle.

"You are the healer of the Sky People, no?" she asked. Clarke could do nothing but nod. "The vessel you people sent down burnt a village. Thankfully people survived, unfortunately one of them has several injuries. You better save her, otherwise you can say goodbye to your friend." Clarke turned and saw Kai with a knife to her throat.

"I'll do it, but I need her. She knows the medicine and herbs better than I do," Clarke croaked out. The woman looked at her once before saying some, and before she knew it, Kai had been pushed the ground next to her. They untied Kai and pulled them both into a room where there was a young girl lying down unconscious.

"You fix her, or you will be dead," threatened the other woman before heading out. Two other Grounders stayed in the room while Clarke and Kai began to work.

~ours~

"So how do you know about these people?" Bellamy asked.

"Because they used to be my people…but as soon as I turned on them to save Octavia, Kai and Clarke," Lincoln said, and Octavia squeezed his hand. Bellamy caught this and glared at the two. Octavia rolled her eyes.

"For god's sake Bell, I'm with Jasper, and Lincoln has a thing for Clarke," Octavia said, winking at Lincoln who just looked away.

"You and Clarke?" Bellamy asked, incredulously.

"You and Kai?" Lincoln shot back.

"Not anymore…" Bellamy sighed.

"Why? I was under the impression, she reciprocated your feelings," Lincoln said.

"Oh she does, but you see Bellamy over here doesn't have the best track record with girls," Octavia said, while Bellamy glared at her.

"Ahh, you are much like Fredrik, one of the males in my village. He wasn't very faithful to women. It got him a lot of hatred from them."

"I can be faithful, and I want to be faithful," Bellamy defended himself. "I just hesitated for a moment and she took it the wrong way."

"You better be faithful if you want any chance with my girl," Jasper said.

"Hey I thought I was your girl," Octavia huffed.

"Please don't say that in front of me," Bellamy gagged.

"You are, but she's my girl. She's the most important person in my life, next to Monty of course," Jasper argued.

"What about me?" Octavia demanded.

"You are too, they are just my closest friends, like my family," Jasper defended.

"Stop." They all turned to Lincoln. "We are near the entrance, you must leave yoru disagreement till later if we do not want to be attacked." They all nodded and slowly inched closer to the out skirts of the village.

Meanwhile inside the village the women from before re-entered the room that Clarke and Kai were working in.

"How is she?" she asked. But the looks on Clarke's and Kai's face weren't good.

"I'm sorry…but you waited too long. If I was here sooner maybe, it's too late. I tried everything I could," Clarke muttered quickly. Rage quickly took over the women.

"You did not try hard enough! Take her, and lock her up. Kill the other one," she ordered.

"NO! PLEASE! I DID EVERYTHING I COULD!" Clarke cried out, as they separated both of them. They were taken to two different places, being hit and beaten every time they fought back. Kai was taken to a cell type of room and kept there with a guard. She tried to look for a way out, and walked around the cell when she heard footsteps. Suddenly the Grounder outside her cell was lying on the ground dead, while Clarke stood there covered in blood.

"Come on, let's go!" Clarke rushed Kai out. Kai was worried about the blood and bruises that covered Clarke's body, but continued to rush out. They were able to get out of the camp without anyone seeing them. As soon as they reached the outskirts of the camp, they ran for it. They ran for as far as they could before losing their breath.

"Let's stop for a second," Kai breathed out. Clarke nodded. "Are you okay?" Clarke just stilled before shaking her head.

"I killed two of them. In cold blood, dead, two of them," Clarke said, tears developing in her eyes. Kai wrapped her arms around the crying girl.

"Shh, it's not your fault. You were put in a bad situation and you did what you could to get out of it," Kai said to her, trying to comfort her. Both of them were covered in blood and bruises, but Clarke was worse than her. She heard footsteps and rustling and they both stilled. But as they turned around they couldn't explain how much relief washed over them.

"JASPER!" "KAI!" "LINCOLN!" "CLARKE!"

It was like a hug reunion as both the girls were crushed in hugs. Kai broke down in Jasper's arms, while Clarke did the same in Lincoln's.

"How did you get away?" Lincoln asked. Clarke froze and pulled away from Lincoln, stepping back a little. Kai looked at her with sympathy.

"She…she had to…" Kai said.

"I killed the two Grounders that tortured us," Clarke whispered out, though it felt like she was yelling. They all looked at her in shock, and with pity. Octavia gathered Clarke up in her arms.

"It's okay, you did what you had to," Octavia said, trying to soothe the girl down. Clarke looked like she was going to have a break down. "Let's get you back to camp. You need to get cleaned up, then you can rest." Octavia gave Lincoln a look, and he swept Clarke up in one swift movement. Kai leaned on Jasper, as the group made their way back towards camp. Before that though, they stopped at the lake in order to wash up a little. It felt good, and both Octavia and Kai helped Clarke with her wounds, as she was much more bruised than Kai was. As they made their way back to camp, the three girls and Lincoln headed straight for the dropship, while Bellamy and Jasper went to get food for the girls. Monty was already in the dropship, and a look of horror dawned his face when he saw the bruises on the two women.

"Oh my god," he said and rushed to get the medical supplies out. He worked on Kai's bruises, while both Lincoln and Octavia worked on Clarke's. Bellamy and Jasper returned with food for everyone. They were all silent, but honestly no one knew what to say.

"I really need to rest," Kai said. Monty was going to say something, but Jasper stopped him and gave Bellamy a look.

"I'm taking you to our tent," Bellamy said. Kai went to argue, but Bellamy just lifted her up in his arms and she was too tired to argue. Jasper and Monty left the dropship as well.

"I'm going to go and make sure that Jasper and Monty leave those two alone," Octavia said, giving the pair a look before leaving the dropship too. Lincoln sighed, and looked at Clarke who still looked distraught.

"Stop. It was not your fault. You performed the same as anyone in your situation would do. You must not feel guilt or pain for your actions," Lincoln told her.

"They were your village members. You should be mad, you should hate me. I killed them," Clarke tried to argue, but Lincoln took her face in his hands.

"No, I am not angry. I do not hate you. You did what you had to do. I would have done the same in your position. They are my people, but they banished me. I do not regret my actions in saving your life, and neither should you. What is important is that you and Kai are safe, and in the comfort of your own camp," Lincoln told her softly. She sighed and leaned into his hands. He placed a light kiss on her forehead. "You must rest. It will be healthy for you."

"Hmm…" Clarke said, and Lincoln could feel her already slowly giving into sleep. Once again he lifted her up and brought her to her tent. As he left her he was faced by Miller, Jasper, Monty, Raven, Finn and Octavia.

"Stay here tonight. You can't go back out there, especially with your fellow villagers angry," Octavia said. Lincoln made to argue, but the others stopped him too.

"She's right. You must stay here tonight. It's not safe for you, and it's late. Bellamy may argue, but who cares. Our co-leader wants you, and the two deputy leaders feel like you should stay," Miller told him.

"Who are the deputies?" Lincoln asked.

"Myself and Raven," Miller told him. Raven nodded in affirmation. Lincoln sighed but nodded.

"Good, I've already gotten some blankets and everything set up in the drop ship," Octavia said, as she and Jasper led Lincoln back to the dropship.

~ours~

Bellamy lay Kai down on the 'bed' carefully.

"I'm only staying her tonight, because I'm tired," she said softly. Bellamy laughed a little.

"No you're not. This is our tent. You will be staying her permanently."

"Bellamy…"

"No. You're going to listen to me. You never let me speak that day. You just assumed I didn't like you enough because I hesitated. I hesitated because I have never felt this strongly about a girl before. You're different, I don't just want to sleep with you. I want you. Not anyone else. You, and I know you want me to," Bellamy told her. Kai just sat up, and pulled him into a kiss. He smiled into the kiss and deepened it. She lay back down, and he got on top of her. As she tore his shirt off him, and ran her hand up and down his chest, he pulled away.

"Are you sure?" Kai just pulled him back in for a kiss, and he made quick work of removing her top and bra, while she shimmied out of her pants. They made love in to the night, and Kai knew that she would not be moving out of their tent anytime soon.

There you go. So I'm not that great at writing 'mature' scenes, so that's the most you're going to get. Hope you liked it. Do leave your thoughts :)
