The festival was in full swing by the time me and Luna had finally made our way down. People from every clan and the residents of Polis had gathered to celebrate the coalition and its lasting peace. But for how much longer will that peace last with Nia wanting more power and the commander see as weak for running away from the mountain leaving it to Skikru to destroy it ending its reign of terror. Just another reason why I want to get the hell away from here. If war is to break out I'm sure every clan but Floukru will be brought in to it. Since we live so far away from people the chances of her being brought into it will be small. Then again I'm sure both Nia and Lexa would like the commander of death on their side.

"You ok there Clarke." Raven asks loudly so she could be heard other the sound of the music making this party livelier. Sitting down next to me offering me some of the food she picked up at one of the many merchants located around the edges of the festival. It looks like some sort of meat grilled and mixed with spice.

"What is it." I question unsure about what the mystery meat is.

"No clue but it tastes great." she's smiles happily pushing the meat closer to me. Well if Raven likes it this much I will probably enjoy it too. And honestly it is really good. "You never answered my question." Raven brings us back to the reason why she sat down next to me instead of enjoying everything that the festival has to other.

"Yeah I'm good." she raises an eyebrow at the clear lie I just told her but she doesn't comment which I am thankful for. We spend the next few minutes watching the crowds of happy people drinking and dancing along to the music. It's a joyous occasion for them and the atmosphere has lifted many spirits but mine. As nice as this is it does make me miss my home more. It's weird I never thought I would be home sick yet here I am missing my clan.

"Where's Luna at." she asks breaking our silence.

"With all the other clan leaders." I explain what has yet to happen. "In about an hour or so the commander and the clan leaders will go up on stage and give a speech about peace. Them all being up there is supposed to show a united collation."

"I'm sensing a but coming."

"It's complete bullshit. Nia is plotting to take control of the collation and kill the commander and both of them are trying to get as many clans as they can to side with them when the war breaks out." wow I am such a pessimist today.

"How do you know this."

"Because Nia has always tried to gain more power. If she had her way every clan would be slave to do what she wants when she wants. It's the way she's always been well that part was according to Luna but she has known her since her reign begun." Luna has always talked about how much she hates Nia and all the awful things she's done to earn more control and power over her people. She kidnapped Costia and killed her in an attempt to be granted more power by the commander and then she wanted to do the same thing with me but since I'm with Luna I kind of ruined her plan which fills with pleasure. But she's smart and will quickly recover and figure out away to hurt the commander and hurt me. She wants the power the grounder believe I prosses.

"Are you show you're ok." concern is written all over her face. I know I'm acting far more depressing and angrier the I normally am but I don't understand why. It's more than feeling homesick and worried about Nia. It's as if something truly awful is going to happen. But I can't tell her that she we just worry about me and I am no doubt just being crazy.

"Sorry I'm just tired and aren't feeling to good. If you see Luna tell her I went back to my room." I quickly stand up and make my way back to the tower before she can see anything else. MY sudden exit probably made her more worried about but I just need to be alone. I don't know what's come over me but what every it is it can't be good.

If I was paying attention to my surroundings I would probably have seen the two men who were watching me and Raven talk get up and follow me as I made my quick depart. I didn't either notice them inside the tower still walking not that far back from me. Another thing I should I have done was tell one of my guards where I was going so they wouldn't panic when they saw that I have disappeared or one of them would have followed me back to my room and stood guard so I was protected. But I didn't.

Luna's POV

Clarke had seemed completely fine until I had to leave to meet up with the rest of the clan leaders. The sudden change in her emotions had me concerned but she quickly waved it off and left to enjoy the festival. At least she can enjoy it. I'm stuck listening to the same agreements as always. Not to mention Nia won't stop looking at me with a smug expression. I assume it has to do with the fact that she is aware of mine and Clarke relationship but I thought she would seem more annoyed then smug considering we just ruined her master plan.

The commanders guards just arrived to escort us to the festival but as everyone went to leave Nia stayed seated her expression turning more into glee then smugness which immediately sets me on high alert. Something is very wrong.

"Queen Nia will you be joining us this evening." Lexa says in her annoyed tune. Of course, Nia would pick take what ever opportunity she can to make Lexa angry.

"I was just wondering is the main attraction to Clarke." her voice is silky smooth and filled with glee. Both me and Lexa tense up. The other clan leaders stand behind us not sure what is going on. What is she plotting. "I mean I agree with both of you." She points towards me and Lexa "she is very beautiful and smart. A warrior yes we saw that in you sparing session and she took down the mountain but is there something else that makes you both fall in love with her."

"Where are you going with this Nia." I ask through gritted tenth. What ever plan she has involving Clarke in better stop now.

"Neither of you feel like answer." she baits us but we don't take it. Which only makes her smile more. "Oh well don't worry I'll figure it out for myself." she stands walking in between me and heading towards the doors. "She's such a sweet girl I wonder how long she will last." it took only a few words to set me off and without thinking I grab Queen Nia and slammed her against the wall. Again, she only smiles. We're doing exactly what she wants us to do but I can't help it if she has put Clarke in any type of danger. "You know what I much prefer her being with you. You don't have to hold back for the sake of image. But one question how much to you is she worth."

"What have you done to her." I all but shout at her. Lexa has moved to stand behind me with an angry expression on her face but it doesn't even come close the rage shown on mine.

"Oh, me nothing I've been here with you the whole time. My people however believe that she doesn't deserve her title and want to give it to me." she laughs she actually laughs at me about her killing Clarke. I don't care what else was said after that I took off running out to the festival calling my guards asking about Clarke. None of them have seen her since she was with Raven. Quickly I search the crowd for the engineer spotting her gathered with the rest of her group of friends.

"Where's Clarke." my desperation much have shown since all of them stand up.

"She said she wasn't feeling well and went back to her room." once raven was done talking I took off running back to the tower. When I finally reach Clarkes room with my guards and her friends following behind me I know what Lexa felt in the moment she learnt that Costia had been taken. Her room was trashed showing and clear signs of a struggle. Lexa and Kane also appear and take in the seen in front of us.

"She's gone." and with that it felt as if my entire world had just been destroyed.

Hey guy's sorry for the delay in the story but I'm trying to wrap up all of my stories so I can focus more on my studies. So, there might be more delays in my writing but I will try to get the final chapters out as soon as possible.
