CHAPTER 4
Alicia's POV
We'd been walking for hours. Chris's complaining didn't help either. Where the hell were we going, I had no idea. None of us knew where they were taking us. My guess though would probably have to do with the word, Heda. It seemed like these people had their own form of language. It sounded a little like English but it had a spin on it. It sounded a little more rough, warriorly, and fitting of these people. I was interested in the brunette's bilingual abilities. Was she once like me and not like the warrior group?
My mind rambling was interrupted when I started to hear other people's voices around us. I think some was even in English. I guess we just hit their form of civilization. The ground on my feet became smooth, so I guess we just entered a building of some sort. We entered an elevator and got out after a very long ride up. We walked forward.
"Don't move." The brunette said.
"Are these the people that you found? Why are their heads bagged? Who was the one they were referring to as Heda?" A raspy sounding female said.
"We had to cover their heads just in case any enemies recognized the one that Trikru called Heda. Oh Clarke you're in for a surprise." The brunette said. Hmm Clarke I thought. That's a nice name. I liked the way it the k rolled off the tongue. I heard boots stomping towards me before the bag was ripped from my head and I saw the girl when I was drowning. This time she had a face, a beautiful one. She had ocean blue eyes and a face that could definitely give a good smirk. She got up from her chair the second she laid eyes on me. Her face showed all kinds of emotions from pain, surprise, and tenderness. She stepped closer to me until we were a foot away from each other. There was a certain kind of connection between us that heightened my interest in her.
Clarke's POV
We received a message that the Octavia's hostages had just arrived at Polis and we were heading to the room they'd meet us in.
"This Heda may or may not be Lexa. Don't be too forward." Indra said.
"Why?" I asked.
"I'm testing a theory." Indra said. I nodded and we entered the room. A few seconds later 7 people with bagged heads were lead into the room. I conversed with Octavia and told her to show me who our men were referring to as Heda. She went to the person standing in the middle and took off her bag. It was her. It was my Lexa. How is this possible? My baby's alive. Oh my god! My heart started to beat faster. She just looked younger because she wasn't wearing the Trikru apparel. Her face had no dirt or black smears on it. Her hair was not tied back. It was all down, which was different, a nice different. I just wanted to hold her and tell her all the things I was too late to say to her before. Before I knew it my feet were putting one in front of the other and I was moving closer and closer to Lexa. I stood in front of her for god knows how long. I wanted to reach out and touch her face. I wanted to cry the tears of losing her with her. I've been hiding my pain from everyone and dealing with it alone. I needed her back. I didn't know how long I was staring at her.
"Lexa?" I said.
"No, my name's not Lexa. Well it is. I mean it's my middle name. My name's Alicia Lexa Clark." she said. Wait. Alicia... Not Lexa. Her last name is my name well that's new. This isn't my girl. Her mannerisms and speech are all too informal to be Lexa. I'm disappointed now. I had my hopes up and now they're crushed. I put on a stoic face.
"My name is Clarke Griffin. Who are these other people? How did you end up on our land?" I asked like I was talking to any other ambassador or stranger.
"Could you remove their head bags then?" Alicia asked. I took my pocket knife and turned her around and freed her from the ropes.
"Do it yourself." I said. I watched as Alicia remove each head bag.
"This is my mom, Madison. My step-dad, Travis. My brother, Nick. My step-brother, Chris. And our friends, Strand and Ofelia. Like what Travis told the brunette, we were heading south on a boat when it sank and we landed here. We were being chased by the infected." Alicia said. This girl has family. Lexa was all alone. Hmmm what's the infected?
"What's the infected?" I asked. Alicia raised an eyebrow and looked at me as if I was joking.
"You don't know what the infected is? The people that get sick and walk around like zombies. Does it ring a bell? You seriously haven't seen any of them on TV before or looked them up on the Internet?" Alicia asked.
"There's no such thing here on earth. We're in the 2150s. I don't know where you're from." I said. I scoffed a little.
"The what... 2150s did you say? No, we're from 2015 America. How is it that we've gone into the future?" Madison said.
"I don't have time for this. You may stay and join our group instead of dying under one circumstance. Each of you will report to my mother, Abby, and state what you can offer us if you want to stay here. If you cannot offer us anything. Then get out. Indra follow me. I need to talk to you," I said diplomatically. I took one more glance at the girl that looked like my Lexa then strolled out of the room with Indra following. I had so many questions for Indra, but I waited until we were back in Lexa's room and the doors were closed.
"Indra! Who is that imposter? Why isn't she Lexa? She looks like her but she isn't her." I screamed in frustration.
"My theory's right." Indra whispered.
"What? What's your theory Indra?" I asked.
