The legacy you left with me
AN: Thanks for all those who reviewed! we are about to get more into the story here! Once again all mistakes are mine!
Chapter One
I am still in my mother's embrace, when all of a sudden an alarm goes off. Mom and I jump apart startled as the alarm continues to blare. Guards run past the open doors to the medical ward, yelling to each other "get to the gate". I turn to my mom and ask "what's going on?" she looks back at me and grabs my hand "I don't know" and starts leading me to the door. We exit the medical ward and follow the group of guards outside. We arrive to the group with their guns drawn pointed at the front gate to Arkadia. "Clarke!" I turn around to the yelling of my name to see Octavia running towards me. She meets up with my mom and me, slightly out of breath she asks "What's happening? Why are the guards pointing guns at the gate?" We all turn to the gate when something catches my eye, or rather someone.
"No" I whisper under my breath as I move away from my mom and Octavia to get a better look. I start heading toward the gate weaving through the guards until I'm at the front standing next to Bellamy, whose gun is drawn and pointed at the figure approaching the gate. He turns and sees me standing next to him, "Clarke you shouldn't be here, go back inside!" but it's too late. My stomach immediately drops, and I feel bile rise up my throat at what I see. A shoulder pauldron with a red sash, gently swaying as the person it's attached to moves closer to the gates with their hands raised. My eyes follow the sash up the body, not noticing any features of the person, my eyes then land on the face, they focus on the person's brow where the mark of the heda lies. I stand there struggling to breath and I continue to feel the bile rise, it suddenly becomes too much as I bend over and lose the contents in my stomach. "Clarke!?" Bellamy yells as I continue to empty my stomach. My mom rushes over along with Octavia, pushing their way through the guards. "Honey! Are you okay?" my mom asks as she bends down to rub my back as I vomit.
"Stop right there!" I hear Bellamy yell, gun still pointed at the person "Go inform chancellor Pike of the situation" he tells one of the guards nearest to him. As the guard turns to leave, I finally catch my breath to look up to see the person stop, hands still up in the air. It is then that I start to take in their features. Standing 15 feet from the gate is a woman, but not just any woman, the new Commander. My heart breaks at the realization; it's just another reminder of what happened, of what I lost. I am brought out of my thoughts when the woman speaks. " Ai Laik hir fou Wanhda." My head snaps up and Bellamy with his gun still pointed at the woman yells "Speak English!" The girl repeats what she said but this time in English "I said I am here for Wanheda." Why is she here for me? I then finally take a good look at the woman. I start with her body. It's about my height and thin, I then work my way up to her face. Her face is sun kissed, and covered in scars and as soon as I look into her brown eyes I recognize her. It's Ontari!
Last time I saw Ontari was when Queen Nia tried to over throw and kill Lexa. It is then that I remember a conversation I had with Lexa the night after her fight with Roan.
"That girl that was with Nia, Ontari… What will happen to her?"
"She won't be back till the conclave after my death."
"Do you ever talk about anything other than your death?"
As the memories come rushing back, so does the hurt, I once again feel sick and start to vomit again only there is nothing left in my stomach to dispose of. If only I knew how much time I had left with Lexa. Instead of joking I would have grabbed her and kissed her, pouring in all that I felt about her into that one kiss. My mind then comes to the realization that Ontari being here only means one thing, she won the conclave. All the other Nightbloods are dead, making her the new Commander.
Trapped in my thoughts, I didn't notice Octavia moving forward more towards the gate. "What do you want with Clarke?" The mention of my name causes me to look up then, only to notice that Ontari is looking directly at me; she then makes eye contact with Octavia "I need to speak to Wanheda on an urgent matter." She says evenly, almost like Lexa. My Mother is still kneeling next to me continuing to rub my back "what matter?" she asks. "That is for Wanheda alone to know, let me speak to her." Ontari then goes back to looking at me, studying me. "Like hell I will!" Bellamy then starts to point the gun toward her head ready to shoot. "Stop!" I yell as I move to stand with assistance from my mom. "Open the gate."I yell as Bellamy turns to me "Clarke we can't let a grounder into camp!" he hisses. "you're not! I'm going out there." I hiss back. The gate starts to open but before I can take a step forward my mom gently grabs my arm "Clarke, what if this is a trap and she aims to hurt you, it's not just you anymore you have to worry about." She nods her head towards my stomach. I then remember that this commander is not Lexa and I have no guarantee that she won't harm me especially since she is from the Ice Nation. I gently remove my mother's hand "don't worry" I say gently, I don't know if I am saying that more to her or to myself. I walk out to the new Commander stopping right in front of her. I look in her eyes, feeling a jab in my heart when instead of forest green, I see brown. Ontari nods her head "Wanheda" she greets. "I'm here now what would you like to speak about?" Ontari just looks at me, studying my face. She then opens her mouth "If you and the sky people wish to live, you will come to Polis with me now."
AN: Don't worry Ontari will not be Lexa 2.0 in this story, unlike what they might try to do in the show and I promise absolutely no romance will happen between Ontari and Clarke. Lexa was it for her! Let me know if I should continue!
