Two weeks later..
''Mom? Can you hear me?'' Clarke asked worried. While holding her mother close to her.
Abby had been chipped by ALIE, but Clarke and Lexa found a way to free Abby from the mind control.
''Come back to me. I know you're in there'' Clarke almost begged to her mother.
Lexa watched from the side as Clarke leaned over her mother trying to reach to her.
''She'll be fine Clarke'' Lexa said reassuring.
Clarke looked a bit frightened but found Lexas words reassuring. ''I need you'' Clarke said in a desperate tone.
Abby opened her eyes a few seconds later. Looking up at her daughter.
''Hi'' Clarke said to Abby.
Clarke helped Abby sit up. She needed Abbys help because of Alie, Clarke needed to enter the City of Light to help Lexa stop Jaha and Alie.
Bellamy and Murphy walked into the Commanders room. They were armed and looked suspicious at Abby.
''It's okay. She's back'' Clarke said reassuring to her friends.
Bellamy nodded and lowered his gun. Murphy did the same.
Lexa watched from a distance, but wasn't to pleased with guns in her throneroom. She looked worried at Clarke because she knew what had to be done.
Lexa turned to Murphy because they needed his help.
''Murphy'' Lexa said with a serious tone in her voice.
''Yes, Commander?'' he asked annoyed.
''You are the new Flame keeper, aren't you? Titus showed you how to use the Flame?'' Lexa asked.
Murphy nodded, but kept his distance from the Commander ''Yes he did''.
''Alright. We need your help with the flame'' Lexa said.
Lexa nodded at Clarke ''It's your turn Clarke'' she said almost desperately.
''Desperate times, desperate decisions'' Lexa added coldly.
Clarke looked worried at her girlfriend but didn't say a word. She knew she couldn't stop Lexa even if she wanted too.
Clarke turned to her mother who was still a bit in shock by what she did when she was in Alies control. ''I need your help'' Clarke begged.
Abby looked confused at her daughter ''With what?'' she asked.
''With something you are not going to like'' Clarke said stoic. ''But something that needs to be done'' she added.
Lexa stood up and sat down on the steps in front of her throne. She faced Murphy and motioned for him to come to her.
Murphy looked confused but obeyed ''What do you want me to do?'' he asked.
''I want you to remove the Flame from my neck'' Lexa said, holding herself together because she had no idea what would happen to her. When they removed the Flame, Lexa would still be able to enter the City of Light because of her connection with her past spirit.
''Are you insane?!'' he asked jokingly. ''This is a joke right?'' he scoffed.
Lexa shook her head ''I wish it was'' she said with a harsh tone in her voice.
Murphy gulped, but listened to the Commander. His face turned white but he nodded ''Alright''.
''Are you ready?'' Murphy asked.
Lexa nodded and handed him a knife ''I'm ready''.
''WAIT!'' Clarke said worried. Stopping Murphy just in time.
She kneeled down in front of Lexa, looking her girlfriend right in the eyes. ''You're crazy you know that'' she said teasingly.
''I know'' Lexa said determined about her decision.
Clarke laughed at her girlfriend before leaning in for a quick kiss ''Please return safely'' she said.
Lexa nodded before looking at her girlfriend one more time ''Do what you have to do Clarke''.
Clarke smiled ''I will''.
Clarke walked back to her mother and nodded for Murphy to proceed with what he was about to do.
Murphy motioned for Lexa to sit back, so she could reveal her neck where the Flame was. Lexa bow down.
Murphy but the knife in Lexas neck and made a straight cut ''Ascende Superius'' Murphy said. The Flame came lose from Lexas neck and John was able to get it out before putting it in the box Titus had given to him a long time ago.
Lexa dropped on the ground as soon as the Flame was removed. Murphy handed the flame over to Clarke.
Clarke took the flame and turned to her mother. ''You're not going to like the next part'' she said a bit worried for her mothers reaction.
''I want you to connect me to a nightblood'' she said, facing her mother.
''Transfusion?'' Murphy asked suprised.
''Not exactly'' Clarke added.
''Connected like Mount Weather?'' Abby asked dissaproving.
Clarke turned around to face her mother and nodded ''Yes. Everything we need is in your med kit''.
''No it's too dangerous. There are to many variables'' Abby said worried before standing up to face her daughter.
''But no options. Lexa explained everything. We need to trust her'' Clarke said determined about her decision.
Octavia and a few others walked in a few moments later ''Whatever your doing. You better do it fast'' she said worried.
''Why? What happened?'' Bellamy asked.
''They are climbing the tower'' she said.
''There's no time to lose'' Clarke said to Abby. ''We need to do this. I need you to trust me'' she added.
Abby nodded ''Alright. How do you want to do this?'' she asked.
''I want you to connect me to Lexa'' Clarke said trailing off.
''Alright. Sit down on the throne'' Abby said.
Clarke sat down on the throne a few minutes later. Murphy and Bellamy had put Lexa on a nearby table. Lexa was still out of it and they had no idea if she would wake up.
Abby did what she needed to do and connected Lexas blood with Clarkes, just like they did in Mount Weather.
Abby looked worried at her daughter, but Clarke reassured her that there was no other option. Lexa had explained to Clarke that they had to get connected to the City of Light. But in order for that to happen Clarke needed the Flame and Lexa didn't because of her connection with the spirit from her past.
''We're all set'' Abby said to the rest in the throneroom. Octavia and the rest had left to protect the Tower from the intruders that were climbing it to attack.
''Okay. Are you ready?'' Abby asked Clarke.
Clarke nodded ''Yeah''. She looked to the side to see Lexa lying on the table.
A few moments later the nightblood entered Clarkes body. That was when she was ready to accept the Flame.
''This will work'' Clarke said.
''And if it doesn't?'' Abby asked worried.
''If it doesn't work, then she dies'' Murphy said while walking towards Clarke.
''If we're going to do this I need the Flame'' he said to Clarke.
Clarke nodded and gave him the box. Murphy opened it and grabbed the Flame.
''Ascende Superius'' Murphy said before activating the Flame.
The Flame attached itself in Clarkes neck. Causing her to pass out.
Clarke looked around and studied her surroundings. She was standing on a road in a big city with a lot of skycrapers around her. Somehow this place seemed familiar to her, but she didn't know how.
One thing she was sure of is that she had to get out of sight. Lexa explained to her, that she needed to lay low as much as possible. Alie would be able to sense when someone had entered with the Flame. The item she needed.
Clarke walked into the center of the City, trying to lay low. But a few men had spotted her and tried to follow her. Clarke noticed this and tried to run away. She ran towards stairs that were on the other side of the street.
Clarke was ambushed by three men who came out the middle of nowhere. She tried to defend herself but they were to strong. They knocked her over on the ground and hit her in the stomach. Trying to knock her out. When she suddenly a scream was heard from behind.
''AAAH!'' Lexa screamed who came charging at the men with her swords, slicing their throats in one swing.
Lexa charged at a few other men who tried to attack them. But she was faster than them and killed them instantly, causing them to fall on the ground as well.
''Lexa!'' Clarke said feeling relieved.
Lexa killed the remaining men who tried to attack them before running towards Clarke. She kneeled down next to Clarke and pulled her in for a hug ''It's good to see you. I knew this would work'' Lexa said confident.
Clarke embraced the hug and felt the warmth of her girlfriend. ''You did scare me though'' she admitted.
Lexa smiled at her girlfriend before leaning in for a quick kiss. ''Our fight is not over'' she said to Clarke before helping her stand up. ''We need to go. Now!''.
Clarke nodded at her girlfriend. ''Alright. What now?'' she asked.
