"You should have thought about that before you betrayed me, Lexa." Tears filled the blonde's blue eyes. "Why did you leave me, Lexa?" Clarke whispered before falling to her knees, sobbing.
Lexa rushed over to Clarke and pulled her into a tight hug. "I'm so sorry, Clarke. I promise I will never leave you again." The girl cried and cried in Lexa's arms, until she finally passed out from exhaustion.
Once Lexa had gotten the sleeping blonde into bed, she called Indra and Octavia. First she turned towards Indra. "I want you to go to Skykru and tell them to call of the search party. Tell them that Clarke is here and that she is unharmed."
The woman nodded in understanding and left to do what the Commander had asked of her. After the door closed behind her, Lexa turned her attention to Octavia. "I have a meeting with the generals of the 12 clans. I need you to guard Clarke. If anything happens to her, Octavia kom Trikru, you will be punished. Am I clear?"
Octavia's eyes widened slightly at the seriousness of the Heda's tone. "Of course, Heda. Clarke is my friend; I wouldn't let anything happen to her." Lexa nodded, reassured to leave Clarke with someone that the blonde trusted.
The Commander decided to have the meeting in the room next to Clarke's in case anything were to happen to the blonde. One at the time the generals entered the room and greeted the Heda politely. Once everyone was there, she started speaking. "In this time of peace I would like to for a new alliance with the Sky people. I think it would be beneficial for everyone."
All of them seemed to agree with her. Well, all of them except for one; the Ice Nation general. "Do you doubt me?" She questioned him harshly.
"Of course not, Heda. I am just not certain that we can trust the Sky people." He tried to explain. "We walked away from the mountain, while they stayed and destroyed it. Who knows what they are planning to do to us for betraying their trust."
The Commander nodded her head in understanding. "While that is accurate, I believe that they want peace just as much as we do. They don't know how to survive on earth. We can teach them in exchange for peace and their knowledge of medicine."
Suddenly, their meeting was interrupted by a loud cry coming from next door. Recognizing Clarke's voice, Lexa send everyone away, telling them that they would continue this meeting as soon as possible.
All the generals had left the room, when Lexa heard another scream from next door. She rushed to the other room. When she entered the room, she shot Octavia a murderous glare. The other brunette was lying on the bed holding her tightly. "What is going on? You were supposed to keep her safe!" she whispered.
Another scream caused both brunettes to turn their attention to Clarke. Octavia pulled her closer to her. "Let go of her!" Lexa told her threateningly.
"Relax, Heda. She's having a nightmare. I'm just trying to calm her down." Octavia told her, getting out of the bed. "You help her then." She said exasperated, making her way to the door.
"Wait." Lexa called out before she could leave. "How can I…? How do I help her?" The powerful Commander looked away embarrassed about having to ask for help.
