A/N: Hey guys, dentist appointment tomorrow! Thank God for that, I usually hate the dentist but I'm really looking forward to it this time round.

About this chapter. My favorite chapters of this fic are the ones that write themselves, the ones I honestly have no control over and have to reread because I simply have no kind of concept of the thought processes behind what I wrote. This is a chapter like that. I had a specific idea of what I was going to write and then I wrote none of that.

Now, question time, or vote time? I dont know, it doesn't really matter. Basically I want your thoughts. We've seen Trikru, Skaikru, Azgeda, so now I'm wondering whether to take them all on a journey to Floukru. But my version of what that land would look like. And they'd be their for a decent number of chapters. Just wondering what you guy's opinion on that would be.

Anyway, please enjoy, let me know what you think. And as ever, I love you all. xxx

"Lexa, I mean it, sit down!" Clarke laughed, clinging to the side of the boat in an attempt to balance out the weight as Lexa perched on the other side, threatening to tip them all into the water.

Lincoln had taken both Cal and Aden down to the training grounds for the day so it was just the six girls in the boat as they sat in the middle of the lake.

They had just finished eating when Octavia had questioned how perfect Lexa's balance really was, and the other girl had wasted no time hopping up onto the edge to prove that it was indeed, flawless.

Rolling her eyes, Lexa started to slip down back into the boat, when Ontari suddenly flung herself towards Lexa causing the entire thing to tip over dramatically.

There was a long moment in which the boat teetered on the edge before gravity took over and it capsized completely, it's passengers dumped into the center of the lake.

Gasping for air, they all burst upwards, grabbing for the edge of the boat and clinging on as they turned to glare at Ontari.

"Why would you do that?" Luna huffed miserably, tugging at her sopping wet shirt with one hand.

Ontari shrugged and grinned over at Lexa, "I thought with her perfect balance the Commander would be able to right it."

Narrowing her eyes, Lexa shoved Ontari away from their boat and towards the direction of the shore. "For that you are swimming back to shore, better get started or we will beat you there and be long gone, Azgeda aren't the strongest swimmers."

"I can't believe that for once it isn't Octavia who caused the chaos." Raven muttered as she moved round so they were all on one side ready to right the boat.

Suddenly having the though, Clarke nodded down to Raven's leg, "What about-?" She started but Raven waved her off quickly.

"Waterproofed it a while back. It seemed like a good idea with the alarming regularity in which we end up getting thrown into bodies of water." She smiled easily, heaving on Lexa's command until the boat was the right way up.

They each helped each other into the boat, managing it quickly whilst working together.

Luckily, the oars were attached to the boat so none had floated away and so they were able to make good time returning to shore. They arrived moments after Ontari, who looked like she was seriously regretting the events that had led to her having to swim on such a cold day and for the fair difference that her Ice Nation upbringing had in no way prepared her for.

"You need to train in the water." Lexa remarked seriously as they hopped out of the boat, pulling it up onto the shore where the fisherman they had hired it off could easily collect it later on in the day.

"No, Heda please!" She tried to argue quickly, but Lexa cut her off with a firm shake off her head, holding up her hand to silence her.

"I'm not saying it to annoy or irritate you. You are clearly not comfortable in the water, as a nightblood you cannot afford that. What if you become Heda and have to fight a war on Floukru lands? Or rather on their ships? You will train with members of Luna's clan until I am satisfied that you won't accidentally drown through incompetence." Lexa finished, waving her hands to indicate that they should start walking back to Polis.

Ontari glared at Octavia as she practically bounced over to her, "This is your fault." She hissed out of the corner of her mouth.

Octavia just laughed, "I didn't tip the boat you did."

"No but it was your idea and we were meant to do it at the same time." Ontari shot back, before a small grin started tugging at the edge of her lips, "I'm serious though Octavia, you need to help me so I can get through this extra training as quickly as possible."

Lexa had linked her arm with Clarke and was watching with interest as Ontari and Octavia talked, unable to hear the words but paying close attention to the body language of the two of them.

"Bet she's regretting that plan right now." Clarke laughed.

Lexa smiled and shook her head, "I'm not entirely certain it was her plan, it seems more likely that Octavia set her up."

"I'll train her." Luna said quickly as she quickly fell into pace on Lexa's other side. "I'm in Polis anyway and I see no reason why I couldn't do it."

Thinking it over for a moment, Lexa dipped her chin, "Ok then, mochof Luna."

"It will be my pleasure." Luna smiled, before speeding up to catch up with Raven, Ontari and Octavia.

"I get the feeling that she means that." Clarke said, "I almost feel sorry for Ontari right now."

Lexa looked down as they kept walking, "Your boots squelch with every step."

Clarke nodded seriously, "Yeah you're right. She deserves it."
