Chapter 36
Matt was freaking out, he had no idea what to do. Clarke had just blacked out on him, her face was pale and her clothes were sticking to her sweaty skin. Having no idea which way to go Matt shook his arms out and rolled his shoulders. Pulling Clarke close to his chest, Matt lifted her and continued in the direction they were going.
.
Anya folder her arms across her chest, Jensen had just arrived in camp and pleaded his case. With some persuasion and hope to avoid another war Anya agreed, they would move out at night fall. Jensen smiled as he followed some of the guardsmen in the direction of the battle tent. They kept a lot of their weapons and poisons in there, having everything in one place kept it from getting stolen or misused.
"Jensen, we're not really going to have to live with those people will we?"
Jensen turned to look at the young fighter. "No, nothing is going to change. However this is resolved, Clarke assured me that the adults will not be associated with them."
After that, there was no more talking. Everyone grabbed their weapon of choice and started towards the gates.
.
Matt's arms were shaking and he almost cried with relief, the Ark came into view as he push through some thick branches. Looking down at Clarke he found the strength within him to stumble his way close enough to the ark, he dropped to his knees when someone saw him and came running over.
Matt gasped. "Someone get Abby."
There was some yelling and shouting, Matt curled himself into Clarke, brushing hair off her forehead.
"Hang in there blondie, you're going to be okay, I got you." He whispered softly against her forehead.
A small groan left her mouth, Matt jerked away looking down at his friend. But her eyes remained closed, it was then that the commotion started moving towards them with Abby in the lead.
"Clarke!" Abby yelled for her daughter. "Did Jaha do this!?"
Matt shook his head. "No I, She's pregnant."
Abby froze, looking over her daughter and noticed the blood stain on her pants.
"Someone help us!" One of the men from the ark stepped forwards, picking the lifeless body off the ground. "Follow me to medical."
Abby led the way, moving fast knowing her daughter was strong but there was a lot of blood staining her pants and Matt's cloths.
"I need something to cut her pants off with!" Abby yelled, grabbing cloths.
Matt appeared beside her with a tray of tools, Abby worked fast, getting rid of Clarke's pants, lapping up the blood from her legs and underwear. Once Abby was sure her daughter was stable she went outside to find Matt waiting.
"How is she." He's voice shook with worry.
"For right now, she's okay."
"Good because we need to go." Matt was worried for his friend but even more worried about what she'd do to him if he didn't stay on task.
"What? I'm not going anywhere with my daughter-"
"It can't be anyone else Abby! Jaha and the other are going to kill the rest of the hundred if you don't stop them. Bellamy said if they attack the grounders will fight with them, Jaha is going to start a war!"
"But-"
"NO! Sinclair can cover things here, he will watch over Clarke. You and I need to grab a few more people and get the hell out of here."
Abby looked down at her hands, only thinking for a second before moving towards a group of arkers.
.
Clarke looking around the darkness, the only light coming from a small hole at what seemed to be a very long tunnel. When she emerged into the light Clarke found herself looking up at the drop ship.
What the hell?The hundred were running around, weapons in hand as Bellamy shouted orders.
"Jasper!" Clarke caught the dark hair boy as her ran by her. "What the hell is going on?"
Jasper pulled her into a hug. "I can't believe it, Finn thought for sure that grounder had killed you. But I knew you couldn't be dead!"
"Grounder? Is that what attacked Matt and I? Oh my god where is Matt!?"
"Who?"
"Matt my friend from the ark where is he? Do the grounders still have him?"
"I thought Wells was the only your only friend that came down on the drop ship."
Both sides of the conversation were clearly confused and not talking about the same thing. Clarke was about to ask Jasper if he'd been eating those nuts again when Bellamy shouted for her.
"Bellamy! Oh my god what happened to your neck?" Clarke reached forwards, pulling the collar of his jacket down.
Bellamy brushed her hand away. "Forget it, how did you get away."
At the same time Jasper said. "Murphy hung him."
Clarke's mouth opened and closed not knowing what to say.
"Again?"Was all she came up with.
"What?" Both boys asked.
Bellamy put them back on track. "Look it doesn't matter, the bridge held the grounders off for a little but they are coming now. We have till night fall to prepare."
At Bellamy's words Jasper seemed to remember he was in the middle of doing something when Clarke pulled him aside, he ran off leaving the two leaders alone.
"No this already happened."
"What already happened? We don't have time for this right now, Clarke we need a plan."
Clarke looked up into his warm brown eyes. "We need to leave!"
"Are you kidding? We have less than an hour before the sun goes down and we still have sick people unable to walk."
"God! No! Bellamy, if we stay here we wont survive."
He just shook his head. "We are going to stay and fight."
And that's what happened, Clarke felt like she didn't belong in this space, the grounder attacked and everything went down hill fast. As members of the hundred fell she ran to them in the hope she'd be able to save them. But as she's feared when she checked for a pulse there never was one.
The was a strangled cry that drew Clarke's attention, she looked up her eyes catching Bellamy's. A grounder stood behind him, Clarke watched on as her co-leaders eyes rolled back into his head and blood drip down his chin. The grounders knife the only thing keeping him from dropping to the ground to join the others.
Clarke gasped feeling a fluttering sensation in her stomach, looking down she saw a river of blood rush down her legs before darkness closed in around her.
.
"Are you sure you know where you're going?" Abby asked Matt for the third time.
"I might be new down here but I was attentive on our walk, I wanted to be able to find my way around if Clarke was serious and ditched me."
Abby just shook her head and trusted the boy in front of her, they'd been moving at a fast pace for a little over an hour, Abby knew they still had a long way to go and hoped they could make it in time to stop Jaha.
That issue Clarke had did happen to a close friend of mine, I'm not just making up crap here :P And thankfully the baby was okay same as Clarke's is. NEW CHAPTER should be out soon :)
