Out of the Ashes, Into the Fire - THE 100 REWRITE Chapter Sixteen
[THE 100 MASTERLIST]
Previous Chapter / Next Chapter
Summary: Finn's actions had sown discord in Camp Jaha, not only among the people of the Ark, who didn't want to risk their lives for him and because of him but also between Michelle and Clarke whose opinions of him clashed, straining their close sisters-lilke relationship... and Michelle found solace and support in someone she never thought she would become so infatuated with one day, and her relationship with Murphy was also disapproved of by Clarke, which certainly didn't help strenghtening their bond.

It had been a moment since Clarke left Camp Jaha to go and meet with the commander and the Grounders. Everyone was a little tensed, waiting for her return but what most of them were really waiting for was to know if they were going to be killed by the Grounders, like their Commander threatened when Jaha turned up to camp when everyone thought he was dead already. Michelle was anxious for her best friend and sister to come back safe and sound, and when the camp’s guards, including Belamy and Michelle herself though she didn’t have a gun as she wasn’t a member of the guard, saw figures move in the fog of the night, approaching the main gate and holding up flaming torches, they raised their weapons, narrowing their eyes trying to determine who it was. After a second, Bellamy and Michelle saw Clarke, walking in between a couple of Grounders mounted on horses. The two looked at each other, and he lowered his gun.
“Hold your fire. She’s back.” He spoke. They powered up the gate and opened the gate. Michelle took a step forward, to go meet her first but when she saw Finn jogging towards her, she clenched her jaw and rolled her eyes with a silent sigh, crossing her arms over her chest.
“Shut the gate.” Clarke instructed and while a guard closed it behind her, she dragged Finn away with her and Michelle just stood there next to Bellamy, glancing at the two quite scary-looking Grounders stil outside the camp. She eventually walked away, followed by Bellamy, catching up with Finn and Clarke who were met by Abby. She hugged her daughter. A crowd gathered around them as everyone was curious upon seeing Clarke return. Raven arrived as well.
“What did she say?” Abby inquired. “Is there a chance for a truce?”
“Yes.” She said faintly and Finn and Michelle started at her, both noticing that something else was on her mind.
“What’s wrong?” He asked and she slowly turned her face to him, preoccupied.
“They want you. If we want a truce, we have to give them Finn.”
“What the hell are you talking about?” Raven obviously didn’t want to believe this, and Michelle looked away, annoyed that she was still acting like her dear boyfriend didn’t actually slaughter an entire Grounder village for nothing, but she just bit her lips and kept her mouth shut because she didn’t want to start a fight just now but if Raven kept getting her nerves, she wouldn’t be so quiet.
“That’s their offer.”
“That’s not an offer. It’s a punishment.”
“For what happened at the village.” Finn put two and two together. Michelle shot up her eyebrows; Finn was getting on her nerves too. “Blood for blood.”
“That’s insane.”
“Not as much as what happened to the village.” Michelle spoke, granting her a look from literally all five of them, with Raven giving her a death stare but she just held her gaze. She wasn’t scared of Raven and didn’t really care if she was hurting her feelings. She wasn’t completely crazy for thinking he deserved some kind of punishment for such gruesome wanton killings. Abby turned her face back to her daughter.
“If we refuse…”
“They attack.” Clarke declared.
“I say we give him up.” Someone yelled in the crowd, and others agreed, saying to get rid of him. The people had no desire to get into a war with the Grounder that would result in them being butchered by said Grounder.
“Give him to the Grounders.” A man threateningly approached the group in the middle of the crowd while Officer Byrne tried to calm everyone down.
“Back off.” Raven strongly pushed him away, protecting Finn and Michelle stepped back, watching Bellamy and Clarke intervened, separating the two.
“Raven, listen to me.” Clarke tried to get her to focus on her. “Nothing is gonna happen to him. I promise, okay?”
“I’m not dying for him.” Another chimed in, infuriated. “Spacewalker burned three months of oxygen from The Ark. He should’ve floated a long time ago. Throw him out.” Raven almost jumped at him, punching him hard in the face. Byrne put her hand on her shoulder, trying to get her to stop and she received a punch as well. Michelle crossed her arms, not intervening in any way and she observed two camp guards getting a hold of Raven, grabbing her arms and dragging her away while she struggled. Everyone was shouting, angry and enraged and this girl didn’t want to even understand the seriousness of what Finn had done, continuously treating him like a victim, as if he didn’t lose it and murdered around a dozen people. Finn went to isolate himself behind the Ark’s ring and Bellamy, Michelle and Clarke went to find him, seeing Murphy seated next to him.
“Hey.” Bellamy greeted Finn. “We’re reinforcing our defenses. Doubles on the perimeter. No one’s getting past that wire.”
“I’ll where they’re thin.” Finn said, standing up. Michelle looked at them before glancing around, listening to the conversation. She didn’t want to say something and get into a fight with Clarke; that was what she was trying to avoid, because she didn’t care to have anyone else mad at her but as of late, she found herself disagreeing a lot more with whom she would have once stood up for no matter what could happen and she still would, but she didn't support how badly they all wanted to protect a crazy murderer. She wasn't a huge fan of Finn's before, but after what happened, she clearly didn't trust him at all and would certainly never defend him.
“You should head inside. B Corridor would be easier to defend, if it comes to that.”
“I’m not gonna hide.”
“Right now, we have to think about keeping you safe. I’m going to talk to Lincoln.” Clarke stated.
“Come on. Finn.” Bellamy urged him to come with him and the latter eventually gave in, reluctantly following him. As Clarke was about to tag along, Murphy stood up and addressed her.
“Hey. Any orders for me, princess?”
“Stay away from me.” She shrugged with a straight face.
“I was just trying to be helpful.” He added softly.
“You were with him at the village.”
“I tried to stop him.”
“Not hard enough.” Michelle frowned, staring at Clarke as she took a few steps away and Murphy rose his voice sightly.
“You know what? You wanna start blaming people, Clarke? He was out there looking for you.” She very briefly stopped in her tracks, listening before leaving without even a gance at Michelle and the latter lightly shook her head in disbelief. She felt a rift was growing between her and Clarke, putting a distance between the two of them, all because of what happened with Finn and the fact that their opinions diverged. Clarke wanted to keep him safe from any harm and Michelle didn't value his life as much, thinking that the Grounder deserved whatever revenged they asked for. And she was saddened by it. She had never thought she and the one she grew up with, who was her best friend and like her sister, woud be opposed on something like this. And meanwhile, everyone was blaming Murphy, because it was so easy to just take someone you don't like and make a scapegoat out of them but now everyone thought the same. They weren't going to fight for Finn.
“I just wish Finn would give himself up already.” Michelle groaned, taking a small turn and sitting down, her arms clutched to one another, and she slumped against the station wall, staring into space. Murphy slowly joined her and sat beside her, leaning on his kness, the weapon he had been given in his hand. “And they’re acting like because you couldn’t stop him, you’re worse than him? I mean, come on. How can they be acting like Finn is to be protected at all costs? Anyway, if they think they can protect him forever, they’re fooling themselves.”
“Well, I couldn’t agree more.”
“I never thought I’d be at loggerheads with Clarke one day.”
“You’ll be besties again, don’t worry.” He teased her and she rolled her eyes with a smirk, giving him a fake laugh.
“You know,” She straightened up, turning to Murphy. “she said that, you see, she thinks you’re rubbing off on me, and she doesn’t like that very much apparently.”
“She said that?” He seemed amused and Michelle continued, letting out a chuckle.
“Yeah. You’re a bad influence on me, John Murphy.” They both sketched a cheeky smile and laughed at the whole situation. Michelle definitely appreciated to have someone like Murphy by her side, whom she could just talk about everything with and without restraint and he wouldn’t criticize her unlike some. She woud never have thought that she would feel closer to Murphy than to Clarke, ever.
The next day, Michelle was walking around the camp. Byrne had given her a machine gun too as she was a good shooter and apparently, they needed anyone that could help in case of an attack from the Grounder. She didn’t really know what to do though, because she didn’t talk to Clarke since last night and she stayed with Murphy the whole time afterwards. He seemed to be the only to really get her lately. She dwelled on her thoughts, walking in circles just looking around until she was bored of doing nothing and the stitched arrow wound on her thigh hurting a little made her stop and sit down, the strap of the gun hanging from her shoulder, she stared into the void. As always, her mind lingered on subjects, she would rather not think of at all but here she was, thinking of Kane. She understood now that he was her father, but she had a hard time realizing it, she had in mind that if it was her father she should have as close a relationship with him as she had with her mother, and he still seemed like a stranger to her, just councilman Kane who had her locked up a year ago and whom she despised. And because she wasn’t running around camp with Clarke, she felt like Murphy must have felt for so long, like she was being put to the side and somewhat ignored. From where she was seated, she could see all the guards standing by the Ark station’s front door and taking cover near the main gate and she stayed there, looking from afar. She straightened up, frowning in confusion, when she saw Abby, followed by Bellamy and Clarke walking up to the gate. The gate was opened, and Michelle decided to approach but didn’t come as near as to stand by Bellamy and Clarke’s side.
“Where’s the boy?” The Grounder inquired. They had stayed right in front of the camp’s gate all night long.
“We are not giving him up. We’re ready to fight, if that’s what it comes to.” Abby declared, and Michelle rolled her eyes. Clarke glanced at her, and she held her gaze and only looked away when a horn blew in the distance and the Grounders rode away.
“Watch the woods. Watch for movement.” Bellamy ordered as they left. Michelle was even more confused and rose her arm, looking through the rifle scope to look around the woods and when this familiar voice rose, she parted her lips in surprise, lowering the gun and staring straight ahead, taking a few steps forward. She remembered wondering where he had gone a few days ago and there he was. Kane crossed the edge of the forest and marched toward camp, yelling at the guards not to shoot. She found herself a little unsettled when she thought of him as “dad” but just shook it off. She cleared her throat, trying to compose herself and not seem too affected by his return, keeping a straight face as she looked at him. She ignored the glance Clarke gave her, not taking her eyes off the two adults at the gate. Now, her best friend knew who he was supposed to be to her.
“You can’t be out in the open.” Bellamy said, walking up to Abby and Kane, along with Clarke. “We need to get somewhere safe.”
“It’s safe, for the moment.” He gave them a reassuring smile and as they walked in the camp, he noticed Michelle and as she simply walked away, turning her back to him, he let his smile fade for a second and both Clarke and Bellamy couldn’t help but look at her quickly, except that only Clarke knew what was up. With all that was going on, Michelle really just needed to isolate a little for the moment. When Murphy ran into her and told her Raven had asked her to join them at the dropship where they were smuggling Finn the dropship where they were bringing Finn after sneaking him out of camp to take him away from the Grounders. Michelle therefore left camp with him and walked through the forest. She had a gun as well, but she obviously didn’t come to protect Finn as she didn’t care much about him. She came because Murphy asked her to and because Clarke would be there, and she wanted to try and maybe make it less awkward but really, she came mainly because of and for Murphy and she would rather be far away from Kane than stay in camp.
“Are you going to talk to Kane?”
“No. I don’t care that he’s my father, he’ll never feel like it to me.” She replied bitterly, looking around them as they approached the dropship’s site. They walked across the burned Groundes’s bodies decaying on the floor, among the leaves and when they entered the dropship, they were welcomed by Bellamy’s gun aiming at them. Raven frowned when she saw Michelle accompanying Murphy. The latter raised his hands at Bellamy holding them at gun point.
“Murphy. Michelle.” He lowered his gun, confused as to why they were here. “What are you two doing here?”
“I believe I was invited.”
“I thought we could use an extra gun.” Raven told Bellamy, and she then stared at Michelle.
“Might be a good idea.” Bellamy agreed.
“But I never asked her to come.” The tone of her voice showed how disepleased she was to see her here with them.
“Hey, I told her to come. You need an extra gun? She’s a better shooter than I am so here she is.”
“And I'm not just gonna kill Finn because I don't like him, I'm bored so I'm gonna help you.” She wasn’t bored at all actually, but none of needed to know of the inner struggle she was put through by the news of who her father was and her and Clarke drifting away from each other because of the whole Finn situation.
“Finn should’ve been right behind you.” Raven then observed as Murphy and Michelle walked past Bellamy and her.
“Don’t worry. The spacewalker’s gonna be fine.” Murphy retorted. About a minute later, Finn barged in, carrying a passed-out Clarke in his arms. Both Michelle and Bellamy rushed towards them.
“What happened?” Bellamy inquired.
“A Grounder hit her on the head.”
“Put her here.” Murphy put a soft bag for her head and Finn settled her on the floor carefully.
“I need a, uh, bandage, a wrap, anything.” Bellamy kneeled next to Clarke and Murphy looked around the room and found what he was asking for.
“Here.” He handed it to him. Michelle kneeled in turn, worried for her childhood best friend. Clarke had the side of her head covered in blood.
“Hold her head.” Michelle obliged and put her hands beneath her head, slightly lifting it from the bag she was resting on. He tried to call out to her, but she remained unresponsive for a short moment, until her eyes blinked. Murphy placed a gentle hand on Michelle’s shoulder and he and Bellamy attempted to reassure her as she was visibly worried and upset about her closest friend being in that state and she just nodded. She would get better, it was just a hit on the head with some blood but especially right now, when their relationship wasn’t at its best, it was even more disquieting for her. She just wished Clarke never got so infatuated with Finn in the first place and right now she wouldn’t be actively fighting to protect him from the Grounders’s wrath, when he was totally at fault and desired to be punished by the people he wronged so deeply. Michelle was even more annoyed with him because he played it out like he was the victim and certainly didn’t care that Murphy was taking all the blame for it. They all raised their heads when Finn stormed out of the dropship, saying that he got her killed. He didn’t because she was still very much breathing, but it was time he blamed himself for something that was totally his fault.
“I’ll watch her, you can go stand guard outside.” Raven’s tone of voice was soft as she addressed Bellamy, Michelle and Murphy caring for Clarke. The young woman was reluctant to leave her best friend’s side but ultimately, they were at better odds if the three shooters were guarding outside and she knew Raven would indeed watch and care for her, they weren’t friends themselves, but she seemed to appreciate Clarke and vice versa. The three walked outside the dropship and Finn went back inside after a brief moment pouting. Bellamy went to one side and Michelle and Murphy went the opposite, trying to cover as much ground as possible, remaining on the former camp’s grounds.
“Do you think I should go and talk to him?” Michelle asked, thoughtful as she carefully watched the surroundings like a hawk. Murphy glanced at her, raising his eyebrows at the question and shrugged.
“Do you want to give him a shot at being your dad?”
“Ugh, I don’t know.” She sighed.
“Hey.” He turned to her, and she stopped in her tracks, facing him. “I’m not a genius but if you’re thinking about it so hard, maybe you want to give him a chance. You lost your mom. You’ve got only one parent left.”
“He used to be such a douchebag though. I’ve always hated him.”
“Maybe try talking about to Abby, and then to him, and see where it goes. You got to try to know if it’ll work or not.” She looked up at the sky, exhaling heavily. In not even two months yet, she had been sent to her death -along other teenagers- to the ground, she lost her mom tragically, she lashed out at Kane, blaming him for it, some boy got her and her childhood best friend to grow distant and she found out Kane was the father her mom never wanted to tell her about. She was just 18 years old and was kind of overwhelmed by everything she had to deal with. They circled around the dropship and noticed movements in the distance and his behind two large, burned tree trunks in the front of the dropship.
“We got company. Get out here.” Bellamy yelled at the three inside the dropship. Finn was the first one to step outside, followed by Clarke, who Michelle was glad to see standing and walking, seemingly well but she didn’t look at her for long, feeling awkward. “Hey, get down. Grounders.”
They found themselves surrounded by Grounders in a place they thought they could hide Finn and eventually had to fell back inside the dropship instead of staying in cover outside. Murphy and Bellamy both stood near the drapes covering the entrance and peeked outside.
“They’re not moving any closer.” Murphy observed.
“They’re staying out of range. They’ll be waiting until it’s dark.” Bellamy said, stepping away, looking at the others.
“If we hit them now, we take them by surprise.”
“We don’t even know how many of them are there.” Clarke retorted to Murphy.
“I’m not hearing any better ideas, Clarke.”
“We’ll give them something.” Raven figured, looking into the void, thinking.
“All they want is Finn.” Bellamy spoke.
“Finn wasn’t the only one at the village.” She declared and, looking at her with straight faces, Michelle and Murphy both started to feel that something was off. He frowned, speaking up.
“Whoa. Raven, I came here to protect him. You were the one who wanted me to come. You—” She stared at him as he connected the dots not even trying to hide the fact that she only wanted him to come in case the Grounders came so she could give him off to them and keep a little boyfriend, who wasn't even actually her boyfriend anymore, safe. Murphy glanced at Finn and then back at Raven, smirking. “That’s why you asked me to come along?”
“Enough Grounders saw him. They’d believe he was the shooter.”
“You sick bitch.”
“Fuck you.” Michelle vehemently spats at Raven, almost stepping towards her to push her against the wall, but she chose to hold herself back because she had a paralized leg and she didn’t want to be responsible for any more damage. She clenched her jaw and fists, digging her nails into the palm of her hands.
“Raven, you don’t mean this.” Clarke shook her head.
“You know what they do to people.”
“They want a murderer. We’ll give them one. Drop your gun.” As she aimed her gun, Michelle was about to instantly aim back at her with hers, but she watched Murphy walk up to her, staring into her eyes, with loathing. Michelle brought her gun to her shoulder anyway and standing by Murphy’s side, she held Raven at gun point and would remain in that position until she put down her gun. She was done with Raven’s bullshit.
“Put it down, Raven. Like it or not, he’s one of us.” Clarke insisted on trying to make her change her mind.
“I said, drop it.” She meancingly stepped forward, almost getting the gun right against Murphy’s chest when Finn intervened and forced her to put down her gun and stood in front of her, distancing her from Murphy. Michelle let out a heavy sigh and put down her gun in turn, glaring at her. Murphy stepped back, and Michelle glanced at him, her gaze going from a death stare to a softer expression. “We’re not doing this. They’s ve got us surrounded. The only thing we can do… is stay and defend this place.”
“I’m with you.” Bellamy nodded, imitated by Clarke and as Finn went to look at Raven, she nodded as well. He then turned his face to Murphy and Michelle.
“Michelle? Murphy?”
“Yeah?” He replied bitterly, biting his lips, keeping it together in front of the others but Michelle noticed he had teary eyes, and he wasn’t only angry and frustrated with Raven, he was also hurt that she though of using him for her own gain and Michelle really just wanted to beat the shit out of her, but she controlled herself.
“Go upstairs, watch the rear.” Murphy quietly nodded, looking down. “I’ll take the lower level. You three, take the front gate. That’s the plan, all right?”
“Clarke.” The latter looked at Michelle when she called out to her as she walked past, following Murphy up the ladder. “I hope you’re having fun with your new best friends.”
“Michelle… wait. Please.” The latter ignored her and disappeared through the hatch, joining Murphy upstairs. She somewhat regretted this little passive-aggressive comment she made but she was so worked up by what Raven had tried to do, having literally no consideration for Murphy. Even Bellamy and Clarke who didn’t like him very much, never pulled something like that.
“Hey, John… You okay?” She asked softly, coming up behind him, putting a comforting hand on his shoulder and he sighed, his lips sucked into his mouth as he looked out the whole he blew when he escaped the dropship a month ago and he very swiftly brought his hand to his face to wipe his eyes and nodded, clearing his throat.
“Yeah. Living the dream.” He said sarcastically. Michelle then drew him into a hug, and he wrapped his arms around her, resting his face on her shoulder. She was practically the same height as him, so he didn’t have to bent over. They remained in that position for a while instead of watching the rear as requested until they heard Finn climb up the ladder and join them on the upper floor. They let go of each other, breaking the embrace and stared at him. “What are you doing?��
“I’ve thought about it. I have to surrender myself to the Grounders.”
“Glad you’ve finally come to your senses.” Michelle retorted and he glanced down, almost looking ashamed and regretful. They then helped him out through the hole in the wall and watched him discreetly walk to the front of the dropship, going around it. It didn’t take long to heard someone scream his name when he was taken by the Grounders; and the voice was Clarke’s.
Night had fallen, everyone was gathered outside the gates of Camp Jaha, watching in the distance with apprehension as the Grounders prepared for Finn's upcoming execution, hundreds of torches lit like flaming stars on the ground, thousands of those Grounders swarming in the tents set up around a log he was setting up just in front of them, so that he could watch their friend die. Well, not everyone’s friend. Michelle was in the middle of the crowd, standing close to Murphy, a little further away from Clarke, Raven, Bellamy, Abby and Kane standing at the front line but she could see him and when she saw the two young women step away with Bellamy, she frowned, wondering what they were going to try now. They certainly couldn’t get him out of this mess, it was too late, and Clarke wasn’t stupid enough to try something so reckless and get herself killed in the process, even for Finn. Sher instinctively made her way through the crowd, getting closer the enclosure barbed wire fence, finding herself next to Abby and Kane and she watched Clarke walk through the Grounders, her mouth opened, frowning.
“What is she doing?” She anxiously asked to herself but spoke outloud. She twitched slightly when she felt a hand and looked up at Kane as he gently squeezed her shoulder, trying to reassure her. For some reason, she didn’t push him away and it brought a little comfort as she watched Clarke far off, with bated breath. A moment later, Finn was brought by a few Grounders to meet his end and he was tied to the wooden pole they put up and after talking to the commander, the blonde slowly walked to Finn, kissed him and hugged him tightly for a long minute, probably speaking to him. When she stepped away, Finn’s head fell forward and his t-shirt was entirely soaked in blood. The Grounders were stopped by the commander from attacking Clarke and in Camp Jaha, Raven let out a gut-wrenching scream at the sight of Finn’s dead body, caught by Bellamy as she fell to her knees, crying her eyes out. Despite the distance, Michelle could tell Clarke was crying too but now, she was kind of relieved, with Finn gone, she could maybe try to patch things up with Clarke and get her sister and best friend back. She wouldn’t be the same but of course, none of them had been the same since they landed to the ground and had to fight for survival on their own. Being at risk of dying literally everyday transformed them all, and the fact that they were almost still children and they had to grow in these circumstances, didn’t make it any easier for any of them.
[To be continued…]

What’s It Like to Work in NASA’s Mission Control Center?
In the latest installment of our First Woman graphic novel series, we see Commander Callie Rodriguez embark on the next phase of her trailblazing journey, as she leaves the Moon to take the helm at Mission Control.
Flight directors work in Mission Control to oversee operations of the International Space Station and Artemis missions to the Moon. They have a unique, overarching perspective focused on integration between all the systems that make a mission a success – flight directors have to learn a little about a lot.
Diane Dailey and Chloe Mehring were selected as flight directors in 2021. They’ll be taking your questions about what it’s like to lead teams of flight controllers, engineers, and countless professionals, both agencywide and internationally, in an Answer Time session on Nov. 28, 2023, from noon to 1 p.m. EST (9-10 a.m. PST) here on our Tumblr!
Like Callie, how did their unique backgrounds and previous experience, prepare them for this role? What are they excited about as we return to the Moon?

my lover's the sunlight
masterlist
I was looking through my old writing from years ago and came across this imagine I'd completely forgotten about. It's a different writing style to my normal headcanons, but I'm trying to branch out. I'm not sure if anyone still writes for the 100, but I can't bring myself to delete something which is nearly 2k long.
This is set during s1. No warnings, apart from Reader being grumpy to everyone and a complete goober for Raven (who only appears at the very end).
word count: 1911
You've been on the ground for less than an hour and already there are fights breaking out among the delinquents. You don’t join them; you goes with Wells Jaha to first bury the bodies of the two idiots who took off their seat belts, and then to find a water source. Digging in the dirt comforts you and gives you something to think about other than the hysteria that’s bubbling up inside your gut and threatening to overwhelm you.
Because while everyone else seems content to explore, you're coming to realise that your survival is up to the rest of the group. You have all been sent down as an experiment, that none of the adults seem to believe you'll really survive.
(You want to throw up.)
++
You have known John Murphy for less than a day and you already despise the other boy. Murphy’s attempts to remove a girl’s wristband by holding her face to the fire makes your head roar and suddenly you leap at him.
The pair of you roll around in the dirt, fists flying until eventually you have the advantage. With Murphy’s head in a headlock and a borrowed knife to his throat, you lean in and whisper into his ear, "if I ever catch you doing something like that again, I’ll kill you, and bury your body in the woods."
You release Murphy, who slumps to the ground and return the knife to Bellamy Blake. The gathered crowd slowly begins to move away.
"Nice moves," Blake says. "What did you say you were arrested for?"
"I didn’t," you reply brusquely, walking away.
"So what was it?" the older boy persists.
You turn and look back at him. "Wasting oxygen on an illegal spacewalk," you say simply.
Blake’s low whistle is interrupted by the return of the Mount Weather party, who are missing the kid with the goggles.
++
You volunteer for the rescue mission. You try to reassure the kid’s friend (you think his name is Monty) that they’ll find his missing friend, but you doesn’t know how successful you've been.
Soon you're wandering through the woods with the others. You overhear Murphy and Blake murmuring about wristbands and rolls his eyes at their predictability. Like hell you're taking it off; it’s letting the Ark know, your family know, that you're still alive.
Soon enough Murphy starts cajoling you about removing the wristband. You let his words fly over him as they walk.
"I’m telling you now," you turn his head to look at the boy behind him, "you’ll have to pry this band off my cold, dead body before I take it off."
"That can be arranged," Murphy starts forward, but you shove him backwards into a tree.
"Guys, come on," Wells says.
You stare at Murphy as you continue. "I mean it. You try and remove it, I’ll stick a knife in you."
You turn and quickly walk off, fast enough that the others have to jog to catch up.
++
The power struggle is resolved. Clarke Griffin assumes control – although Blake makes a compelling argument. It’s close until you speak up.
"I agree about how oppressive the Ark is, but without communication we’re completely screwed. We have no weapons, no technology and very few people with useful skills. That’s not counting the Grounders."
Somehow your words are enough to sway the majority of the group into following Clarke. She throws you a grateful look, while you nod in return.
There are still pockets of resistance, but they gradually fizzle out.
++
You quickly notice how people move away when you approach them. You talk to Wells about it one afternoon while sorting out rations.
"They’re scared of you," the other boy points out, with a grin.
"What?" The baffled expression on your face makes Wells’ smile grow.
"You don’t smile much," he explains. "Plus that knife fight with Murphy was pretty vicious."
"Oh," you say. Then, "I promise I’m not usually that violent. But there’s just something about him that–"
"–makes you want to punch him in the face," Wells finishes. "You’re not the only one who feels that way."
You chuckle before changing the subject.
(Wells is beginning to feel like a friend. You're not sure how you feel about that)
++
You eventually let Monty use your wristband to make contact with the Ark. It’s a spontaneous decision on your part, made after you saw the younger boy’s frustration at his failed attempt.
"Take mine," you offer, holding your arm out.
Now they’re sitting together, you watching as Monty carefully fiddles with the band. "Do you have family up there?" you asks.
Monty nods. "My parents. You?"
"I’ve got my parents and Raven," you swallow heavily as you think about them.
Who’s Raven? Monty asks.
"My girlfriend," you reply. "She’s amazing. Only eighteen and already a Zero-G." A smile creeps onto your face as you talk about her. It's an automatic action at this point after all these years of knowing and loving that girl.
Monty whistles in awe.
"Yeah," you laugh a little. "She’s the youngest one in over fifty years. She’s going to change the world."
Monty makes a noise that resembles a laugh. "Wow," he says. "I never would’ve picked you to be this…"
"Hmm?"
"Sappy," is the reply.
"That’s Raven for you," you laugh.
"You know if you walk around with that look, no one’s going to take you seriously?" Monty teases.
"I don’t know why everyone thinks I’m scary," he muses. You really don't. You consider yourself to be fairly even tempered.
"It’s because you never smile and you’re good with knives," comes the reply.
(Even though the attempt ends up failing, you still can’t see it as a complete loss.)
++
Finn Collins shows him and Clarke a bunker in the woods one morning. You look around and groan loudly when you spot a book about origami.
"Not a fan?" Finn asks, moving to see what's caused your displeasure.
"Not really," you reply.
You remember finding a similar book in the Ark library years ago. You had suddenly being seized with the idea of making something for Raven’s birthday, which had been coming up. You remember folding the paper for hours until finally getting the right shape and how much longer it took you to make the same thing with metal.
Eventually you'd finished it, and felt flushed with triumph at the bird, which had looked sleek and silver against your kitchen table.
Raven had nearly cried when you gave it to her. She’d put it over her head before kissing you passionately. Your heart had stuttered every time you saw her fiddle with her new necklace.
"I admire people who can do it," you say. "But honestly my hands haven’t really been able to do anything like it. I don’t have enough patience."
(That said, all the frustration and sore fingers had been worth it for the look on your girlfriend’s face.)
++
As the days go by, the delinquents gradually succeed in making a society of sorts. You throw yourself into work, whether it’s building, hunting or healing (you'd approached Clarke and offered to assist her with medical matters.
"It’s dangerous to only have one doctor," you'd said, "and even if you still do the more advanced stuff, at least I can help with bandages and minor injuries. You won't be overstretched."
"You’d do that?" Clarke had replied, a hint of gratitude seeping through her voice.
You later realised that was the moment Clarke became a friend.)
But all your attempts to distract yourself are useless once night falls. Lying in your tent, your thoughts always drift up to the sky, to the Ark.
You compose letters in your head, letters you'd send your family if there was any way of contacting them.
Dear Dad, I’ve never seen this much green before in my life and I miss you.
Dear Mom, today I caught three rabbits while hunting and I miss you.
Dear Raven, I’m helping Monty construct a door that mechanically opens and closes the gate and I miss you.
Dear Dad, I know you always said to use your words, but I swear to god I’m going to punch John Murphy in the face one day.
Dear Mom, there are so many flowers down here, you’d love it.
Dear Raven, I’ve seen so many birds and I can’t wait to show you.
Dear Raven, every time I try to go to sleep, all I can see is you.
Raven, I love you and I miss you.
Raven, Raven, Raven.
You know you're not the only one missing their families. You've heard enough people talking and crying about theirs – you tends to avoid those people. A combination of faith and living to spite the Council who sent you down to Earth keeps you going most days.
++
A shooting star appears in the sky when you're on watch one night. It burns bright across the dark sky and you suddenly remember your Mom’s bedtime stories of wishes made on stars and how they promise to come true.
"That’s not a shooting star, it’s from the Ark!" someone cries out.
"Maybe they’re sending more people?"
(You hope so.)
++
You head out with Clarke early the next morning to find the pod. You eventually come to a clearing where the pod landed, only to find it open and the occupant already outside. Your heart stops as you see one of the people you've missed the most since coming to the ground.
"Raven?" your voice is barely a whisper. If this is a mirage, it's a cruel one.
Your girlfriend turns her head and the glee on her face (at finally landing on Earth, no doubt) deepens as she sees you. "Y/N!"
You abandon all composure as you run to her. She's just as quick and both your bodies collide hard.
"Oh my god, oh my god, it’s you," you babble as you hug her tightly.
"I’ve missed you so much," she whispers into your ear, sounding just as manic.
You turn your head to chase her lips and the kiss that follows is one of the sweetest you've shared. Hands move over clothes and skin as they trace familiar paths.
"But how…?" you ask after a minute, leaning your head back. Your hands stay tangled in her shirt and hair, mirroring hers which clutch your jacket in a white knuckled grip. Neither of you are willing to let go of each other just yet.
"Abby Griffin," she says proudly. "She helped me get the parts to get this baby working."
"How old is that thing?" You ask, twisting your head around to look at the pod before returning back to her.
"Eh, only 97 years old," Raven shrugs nonchalantly, but you can see her pride fighting to the surface.
"Only 97 – you could’ve died Raven! You could’ve been injured! The ship could’ve blown up on impact!"
"But it didn’t," your wonderful, brilliant, crazy girlfriend counters. "I’d do worse for you and I know you’d do the same for me."
"Yes I would, but that's not the point–"
(The rest of your protests are interrupted by Raven kissing you again and the sound of Clarke’s laughter in the background. Raven already knew you would act like that; Clarke didn’t and finds it hilarious to reconcile this new information about Y/N L/N with the picture she already has of you.)

Ep 1 Pilot Live blog
I'm going in guys.
FiFirst sight of baby Clarke drawing and dreasming of Earth. :( And the reveal that the whole earth is dead, and only The Ark is surviving.... or so they think. Another 100 years before it's survivable.
Baby Clarke. Oh she's not even eighteen. Every crime punishable by death and our little feral Clarkie overpowers the big tough guards. OH look it's Abby. Giving the Delinguents the chance to live! ON THE GROUND!
Damn they shot her with a tranq dart.
And the drop ship is off.... zoomies. Clark wakes up in a tin can with OH WELLS!!!! poor baby Wells. OH Monty and
And the chancellor telling them they ARE the chance for everyone because THEY are expendable. I always hated that. How can you call people expendable. Such a bad world view.
Oh the lady we never saw again after the pilot. I liked her. Abby's friend. What was her name?
ooomg, Clarke is giving Well's dad a dirty look. AND floating hair for brains. Finn. Right how did I forget his name? Octavia is enjoying her freedom with the other kids. But acceleration and Finn and his followers break the fucking ship.
Why is my brain so bad I've forgotten everyone's names.
Wells trying to apologize and Clarke NOT forgiving him. Little Wanheda.
Clarke goes to check on the fallen kids and starts taking control right away
OMG BELLAMY, just back it up guy, and Clarke gets in his face right away.
But here comes Octavia "the girl that hid under the floor." "OMG Look how big you are." Much tears.
Oh pissy octavia because he's in guard uniform. "No one has a brother!" All these reveals are pretty slick, actually. I know the who thing is cheesy but they are giving us so much information.
WOW. They open the door and SUDDENLY EVERYONE IS SO BEAUTIFUL IN THE GOLDEN SUN AND WIND MACHINES.
Don't say Octavia Don't say it.
WERE BACK BITCHES!!!!
she said it.
and enter the delinquents. Oooh. Radioactive. Not me dancing with with delinquents. Yes. Yes I am chair dancing.
"Why so serious princess?" Ugh. Gag. Wow I really hate finn. Still. More so.
Poor baby Clarke is so serious. THey dropped us on the wrong damn moutnain. Was that seriously all before the first commercial break? WOW packed.
Kane as a villain. Remember that? He is awful. Jackson and SInclair!!
Wells wants to be so helpful.
OMG John Murphy as an actual villain. And Bellamy too. Octavia the rebel. It's so weird seeing them so naive. But actually Octavia's character is still the same. Wells and Murphy fighting until hair brains jumps down and acts "the hero." Why is he so icky?
"Hey spacewalker. Rescue me next." EW. Octavia you picked the wrong guy.
Oh remeber that Bob came up with that deep voice because he stayed out too late the night before or something and had a husky voice so he then had to fake a deep voice for the next seven years of his life. lol.
God I cannot express how every time Finn opens his mouth I hate him more.
Our first adventure with Clarke and Finn and Octavia and Jasper and Monty.
Oh that's right. Jaha was shot. I totally forgot. After Clarke gets his pardon it becomes a non issue. And Jasper and Monty got put in jail for weed. lol. And poor baby O for "being born."
Haha. The shocking two faced deer that scares them all. All these wonders of the earth are very nostalgic. OH that's right, Abby gets put into jail for using too many supplies to save him.
And they discovered the shooter of Jaha. "It's no one. Just a janitor." Oh this guy is trying to get Kane to kill people. OH YEAH KANE you're talking to the traitor. It's that guy.
Murphy's back story. Begging for mercy in the float chamber when your father floated him.
Bellamy is so young. A trouble maker. Really just trying to keep the Ark from joining them because he killed Jaha. And taking over as ruler. Or dad of the group.
Oh new reveal. Clarke tells them why they sent the 100 down. The Ark is Dying. Three months left of life support. Maybe four after sending them down.
Why does she think Wells turned in her dad, anyway? Just because she couldn't imagine her mom doing it?
Oh me rolling my eyes when Finn says "we have to warn them" when really he's just saying that for Raven, not for some moral reason.
Octavia stripping and jumping into the water. Where did her jumpsuit go and how did she get the pants.
And Jasper spots the CREATURE coming to get Octavia. You know they could have used the creature in the water as one of the dangers in the following eps but they just dropped that. The only monster we really had in early season was Pauna. I mean non human monsters. We should have had more monsters.
I'm really just not paying attention to Jasper saving Octavia. It doesn't really feed into the rest of the story.That was a big monster. We should have seen more of it.
The delinquents having their first bonfire and taking off the wrists. Oh that was Fox. Wells is a goody goody. It's a little annoying. I mean he's right but he's not going about this in the right way. There you go. Our doctors, our farmers, our engineers. Bellamy is like okay well that's a good point. Until he Wells says "how could you not want our people to come down." And then he's like "what do you mean WE kemosabe. those aren't my people. Those are the people who floated my mom and put my sister in jail."
Now they're shouting WHATEVER THE HELL WE WANT they are fucking morons. Honestly.
But they are loving the rain. Hey that's the first rain they've ever experienced. Aww.
And abby gets arrested for saving Jaha. I mean Kane is right. No special treatment. But the whole concept is not good. Abby is used to special treatment though.
Penal code ONE. Their first law. Wow. All crimes are capital crimes.
"I choose to make sure that the human race stays alive"
"I choose to make sure we deserve to stay alive." Abby.-- This was like the most important statement made in the entire show, right here. First episode. And it was a driving force until season seven where they were just like. Nah. Nazi cults are the best idea. Technology. Purple aliens.
Oh they put Abby in Clarke's cell with her drawings.
Clarke wakes up on the earth (the dream) with the luminescent trees. Again a thing they could have used more often. maybe it was too expensive.
Oh Finn. You're ruining the mood. Go away. Yes I mock Finn's every line after he says it. Finn finds tracks he says are monkeys. Which we never see.
Kane thinks he's the only one who's willing to do what it takes which is going to be echoed by Bellamy later. They're both wrong. What was that character's name? Played by Kelly Hu I think.
Bellamy dragging Wells out in the middle of the night with his gun. He's telling Wells to stand up to his dad and take off the wristband. Murphy's reprobates take off his wristband. I totally thought they were gonna kill him but the scene ends with the clink and release.
Now we're executing Abby until... Jaha comes to the rescue.
Swinging across the river..."see ya on the other side." Jasper is trying to impress O. Finn STOP TALKING. you're a terrible character.
Good music though.
"IT's okay to be afraid, Jasper. The trick is not fighting it." Ok Finn that line is actually pretty good.
Jasper finds the sign for Mount Weather and after much cheering and laughing--BOOM in the chest with spear. Not sure how he survived that actually.
The magic of hollywood.
"We're not alone." and BOOM WERE OUT.
well. that was fun. I can't see it for what it was, though. I can only see it for how it relates to the rest of the story that I know came later even if somethings don't relate and some things I didn't notice or forgot.
The acting's a bit wooden and stiff and the delinquents are morons. The hair gel is too strong-- the main reason we're happy for the first delinquent rain storm.
I remember I didn't love the show after the first episode, but I liked it enough to keep watching. It wasn't until ep three or four that I really started loving it.
ALL RIGHT MY FRIENDS. Let us now open The 100 Rewatch 2023 season!
Add your opinions and insights. Link me when you do a liveblog. Comment and send asks.
I don't know if we have a schedule anywhere or a discord. But as of now, we're looking on focusing on each of the first six seasons every two months. SO february and march is season 1.

The sky girl~Part 1
Lexa kom trikru x fem!OC!skikru
Warning: lots of blood, lesbians, smut, murder, alcohol, abuse, fluff
I’m not really good with English sorry for any spelling mistakes I make
“Your dads a dick wells” was the first thing I heard when I woke up, I was on a drop ship. “Your dad floated me after all” a boy said with a smug smile “get back in your seat” I yelled knowing the parachute will activate soon “she’s right stay in your seats” a blond girl said, then two boys tried to get out of there seats and that’s when the parachute activated “ahhhh” a bunch of people screamed “everything on this ship is a 100 year old we just need to give it a second” the same blond girl yelled, I think I was the only one who heard her because I was right beside her. I closed my eyes and just screamed then the humming noise I’ve heard my hole life stoped “no humming that’s a first” a boy said, I then opened my eyes “the doors on the first floor” a boy yelled, when I got down there I saw a girl and a boy hugging “that’s Octavia Blake the girl they found under the floor” a girl shouted, Octavia then tried to go to the girl but the boy stopped her “Octavia! Octavia no let give them something else to remember you by” the boy said “yea like what” Octavia said with a angry expression “like being the first person on the ground in the last 100 years” the boy said before opening the door. Octavia stepped out and jumped on to the ground “WERE BACK BITCHES” she yelled and then everyone ran out of the drop ship. “It’s beautiful” I said to myself kneeling down to Touch the grass with my hand “it is” a boy said from behind me “Murphy!” I said as I turned around and ran to him and jumped in his arms “hey Jai” Murphy said with a smile, he was my best friend back on the ark “god I missed you so much” I said with a smile “missed you too but I got know why they put you in solitary” he said with a small laugh “I snapped” I said with a evil grin “that’s my girl” he said with a smile as he puts his arm around my shoulder and starts to walk with me
“we’re on the ground isn’t that enough for you” a boy said “you heard what my father said we need to find mount whether” wells said “look at this the chancellor of earth” Murphy said coming up from behind him and pushing him. “Think that’s funny” wells said, then Murphy kicked the back of his ankle and he fell to the ground. “Wells” the blonde from before yelled “come on get him” I heard a boy yell. “No but that was” Murphy said with a smile, I couldn’t hold in my laughter. Wells got up and was ready to fight Murphy. Murphy teased him a bit coming up to him then backing up “come on, come on” he said motioning for him to come at him. People were shouting wanting some action. Then Finn jumped down from the drop ship. “The kids got one leg, how about you wait until it’s a fair fight” Finn said to Murphy “hey spacewalker rescue me next” Octavia said with a smile. Murphy grabbed me and the others and we walked away, I saw Octavia’s brother pull her away but I couldn’t hear what they were saying. “I’m going to explore” I said to Murphy “want me to come” Murphy said, he was always like my brother always protecting me “no just want some me time” I said really needing some me time. “Okay if you need help scream” Murphy said with a worried expression “okay I will love you” I said giving him a kiss on his cheek “love you too” he said before I walked off.
I was walking around the camp when a heard a twig snap “hello Murphy are you there” I said thinking he followed me “chon yu bliaik(who are you)” girl said as she put a sword to my throat. “What did you say” I said not knowing what she said. “Who are you” the girl said “Jai kane” I said trying not to snap because she is has a sword to my neck and she could kill me “your a sky person” the girl said with a shocked voice. “I told you my name you tell me yours” I said I was right I told her mine. “Lexa kom trikru” the girl said lowering her sword to my stomach “kom trikru what does that mean” I said curious “it tells others what clan I come from” lexa said lowering her sword completely but still holding it tight “well what clan would I go to” I said thinking she would said her own “Jai kom skikru” lexa said “what is skikru” I said wondering what that is. “Sky clan” lexa said putting her sword away. “Well lexa thank you for telling me, I do have one more question how are there humans here” I asked remember no one should be here “we survived” lexa said with a neutral face “how the planet should be covered in radiation” “I don’t know, Disha fucking gada(this fucking girl)” lexa looked annoyed. “Jai” Murphy yelled “get down” I said pushing lexa down “yeah” I yelled back “you talking to someone” “nope just myself” “okay come back to camp” “I’ll come back when I want to” “okay see you when you want to come back” with that Murphy walked away when he was out of my line of View I pulled lexa back up. “You didn’t let him see me why” “well you didn’t come out and say hi when we landed so Im guessing you don’t want to be seen” “mochof(thank you)” “what” “nothing” “what did you say” “come with me”
lexa took me to a village “can you heal” “like heal people, yes I can” lexa looked happy when I said that. “Lexa chon ste disha gada(who is this girl)” i woman said as she came up to me and lexa “Disha ste Jai kom skikru(this is Jai kom skikru)” “skikru” the woman looked shocked “I’m Jai Kane ” “I am Anya kom trikru” Anya said clearly unhappy “ai want kom teik her kom polis(I want to take her to polis)” lexa said with straight face “Heda you cant be serious” “yes I am” I just stared at them, what were they talking about. “Ready the horses” lexa yelled and as she did people ran to do such
Back at camp “Has anyone seen Jai” Murphy said going around to everyone “nope” most people didn’t even know Jai except she was the one who tried to kill the Chancellor and ended up killing his wife. “Hey Bellamy have you seen Jai” “no I haven’t but I need you to help take off the wristbands” “okay on it”
back at the village “Jai are you ready to go” lexa said as she mounted her Horse “yea just never road one” “you will ride with me” lexa said holding her hand out for me to grab “thanks” I said taking it and mounting the horse. We road for hours and in that time Lexa started to teach me trig “ai laik Jai kom skikru(I am Jai kom skikru)” lexa had me repeating that a hundred times “ai laik Jai kom skikru” “again” “ai laik Jai kom skikru” “your getting better” “thanks” it was silent then the horse in front of us stoped “Heda were houm(Heda were home)” a Guard said with a smile “Heda were home” I said translating him, lexa looked very impressed
“Heda welcome houm” a bold man said as he bowled his head “it’s good to be back” lexa said with a smile “your speaking English” “yes you will too our Guest doesn’t know our language well” lexa said obviously talking about me “you brought a sky person here” the man said in raged “Titus stop” lexa ordered “teik her kom a guest room(take her to a guest room)” “sha heda(yes heda)” a Guard said as she bowed her head and walked over to me “follow me” the guard said “go” lexa said to me telling me to go
we got to my room and it was nice calm the guard left when I was in the room. I laid down and that’s when I realized what I just did, I left John my best friend. But he would understand I would run off and stop talking to him for weeks back on the ark so that’s what he must think, but that’s not what happened. I left him, I didn’t even realize I started to cry “what’s wrong” lexa said as she walked into my new bedroom “I left my only family, and I didn’t even say good bye” “what’s there name” “John Murphy but everyone calls him Murphy, we met in prison” “what did you too do to get there” “John killed the guards that killed his father and I tried to kill the man that killed my mother but killed his wife instead” lexa looked at me with soft eyes “I lost someone too, her name was costia, the ice nation took her because they thought she knew my weakness because she was mine they killed her and I promised myself I wouldn’t love anyone else” “you cut out your emotions I do that too” “your training begins tomorrow” “what training” “if your going to live here you have to learn to fight”
the next couple days all I could think about was John, how I left him and he probably hates me now “Jai focus” Titus said with a strict tone, I ended up joining the night bloods and there training because no one wanted to teach me “I’m trying” I really was but I got angry. “Don’t worry nun of us got that move in a couple of days it took weeks” a night blood child said with a smile, I learned his name is adin. I also became friends with another child her mother was the Guard that guards my Chambers the child’s name is linc, she has the most beautiful black hair and gorgeous gray eyes her skin is kinda tan but she Beautiful. She’ll come to my room after school and I’ll braid her hair. We go out to the market together and look around. She was the first person to actually like me after time everyone stared to like me they felt safe even Titus stared to like me. “Jai come ona ai found something gon yu kom give kom heda(Come on I found something for you to give to heda)” linc said running into my room, it had been months and I still haven’t found a way to repay lexa for not killing me “okay I’m coming” I said getting out of bed I went to my closet and put on
And yeah I got tattoos I got them after I finished my training making me finally one of trikru. “Jai it’s good to see you” lexa said with a smile as I walked in, I had to say she’s hot. “Heda ai don a present gin yu(I got a present for you)” I said handing her a box “thank you Jai” she said as she opened the box, it was a necklace with a beautiful ring attached to it, the ring had a gem that was dark green so dark it almost looked black “I hope you like it Linc help me pick it out” “it’s beautiful thank you Jai, thank you linc” lexa put the necklace on and I couldn’t stop my heart for skipping a beat. “Linc beja bants osir(please leave us)” lexa said with a soft tone “sha heda(yes heda)” linc said before walking out the minute the door shut, she walked up to me and kissed me. Of course I kissed back when she pulled away she looked into my eyes “you have beautiful green eyes and your hair is a beautiful red” she said placing her hand on my cheek “you brown hair is gorgeous, your sea blue eyes make my heart skip a beat” I said leaning in and kissing her again. I stared to kiss her neck and that’s when there was a knock “why now” I said moving away from her neck and walking to her side “come in” “there has been a attack on tondc” Titus said coming into the throne room “sky people” “yes” “who was it” “two boys named Finn and and Murphy” when the last name left Titus mouth I froze “a village also captured two men” “who are the men” “one with dark skin the other with light skin both sky people” “do you know there names” “no” “I will see the men and then I will go to skikru” “yes heda I will ready the horses, Jai will be joining you” after Titus said that he walked out. “Are you okay” lexa said Turing to me “my brother murdered innocent people” “you said he had killed people before” “they executed his father, they were not innocent” I stared hyperventilating lexa saw this and just kissed me “breath my love”. When I calmed down I looked at her and said “Ai hod yu in lexa kom trikru(I love you)” “Ai hod yu in Jai kom trikru”
Before the sun set we left and went to the village when we got there I was brought in to see them when I did I froze “dad” when I said that lexa and all the guards looked at me “there asleep” lexa said looking at me “that’s the Chancellor” I said looking at Jaha “leave me here and bring lexa in later” “but Jai” “they know me not you” “fine” she said turning around I then started to take off the armer and weapons “Taim emo try anything kill em(if they try anything kill them)” lexa whispered to lincs mother, linc came with us she’s like my daughter “sha heda(yes heda)” lincs mother replied “lad guard the door” lad is lincs mothers name she looked just like linc but with light skin “sha kwin heda(yes queen heda)” lexa made them call me that, I wasn’t officially hers but she wanted me to be so I didn’t complain. “When they wake up come get me” lexa told a guard “and you don’t die” lexa said with a soft voice as she walked up to me and gave me a soft kiss one my lips “I won’t” I said after she pulled away
“good morning” I said as Jaha got up “you your dead Clark and Bellamy told us your dead” “I was kidnapped by the grounders” we sat there in silence before I got up and walked over to Kane “wake up daddy” I said shaking him awake “Jai” “JAI” he yelled as he got up and pulled me into a hug “I thought you were dead” “I thought you were dead” “hello friend” jaha said Joining into the conversation “Jaha{can’t spell his last name}” Marcus said as he got up and hugged him “I thought you were dead” “me too” I found it cute what I just saw, my dad sat down and tried to get the chain off his foot I just sat there looking at them “Kane stop” Jaha said with a very exhausted tone ““good morning” I said as Jaha got up “you your dead Clark and Bellamy told us your dead” “I was kidnapped by the grounders” we sat there in silence before I got up and walked over to Kane “wake up daddy” I said shaking him awake “Jai” “JAI” he yelled as he got up and pulled me into a hug “I thought you were dead” “I thought you were dead” “hello friend” jaha said Joining into the conversation “Jaha{can’t spell his last name}” Marcus said as he got up and hugged him “I thought you were dead” “me too” I found it cute what I just saw
it had been two days, my dad tried to get the chain off his foot I just sat there looking at them “Kane stop” Jaha said with a very exhausted tone “if they wanted to kiss us they would have done it already” Jaha said again “oh two days with out food or water” Kane sounded so full of frustration “come on how many times did we go two days with out food or water, this is not how our story ends Marcus. We wind up in the same train station on the ground just to die in it” Jaha said still very exhausted will he plays with a stick “you guys still got work to do” I said joining the conversation. “How can you be so sure” Kane asked as he scoffed “wells told me” I said very calmly “you’ve spoken to my son” “he was one of my best friends on the ark before I killed your wife he used to visit me in prison” I said with a tear. That’s when the ground we came in, Kane stood up Lexas guard cam in with her shoulder armer on, he signed for the guards to pick Jaha up and that’s when I stood up but instead of picking him up they started to beat him up “stop” Kane yelled “we came in peace” I yelled following along after they were done beating him up they picked him up, that’s when I noticed lexa behind her guard she looked like a servant he signed for her to walk over to him she was whimpering and walking slow like so was just beat “you speak of peace yet you send a assassin into our village” the man said with a ruff voice “what are you talking about” kane said with a very confused look “blood must have blood” he said looking at lexa he then pulled out her knife and pointed it and both of them “one of you will die here today by the others hand I will hear your terms of your surrender from the man who lives” he said before throwing lexas knife on the ground “fetch osir when it’s Odon(fetch us when it’s done)” he said turning to lexa who looked scared with that he walked out
I fell asleep and when I woke up lexa was shaking me awake “they’re making there decision” lexa said so only I could hear here “okay make sure my father kills Jaha” I said back keeping my eyes closed “I will my love” she said getting up and walking away, I heard yelling and gates opening when I heard lexa voice I got up and walked to her side “Jai what are you doing” “standing with my love daddy” both Jaha and Marcus looked confused “what did you do to my daughter” Marcus said as he looked at lexa in disgust “i Made her my queen” lexa said grabbing my hand “you killed my mother” I said to Jaha “I still love you father” I said to Kane “so I will spear you” lexa said with a blank face “Go to the horses” Lexa whispered to me “okay my love” I said before leaving

The 100
Favorite episode and why
blood must not have blood aka the s2 finale!!! it's just so incredible. everything is building to this horrible decision that clarke has to make and i love how she's basically where she was in the first episode. like it was always going to end that way she was always going to have to pull that lever and she tried everything to come to any other outcome, she sacrificed finn, she let the bomb drop on TonDC and it didn't work, and as awful as it is, it is arguably her most heroic moment so. also i love how it sets up s3, the murphy stuff is great and clarke leaving is brilliant, the clexa betrayal is supreme and the blarke goodbye is amazing. even tho s3 didn't rlly deliver so well on those threads, it was just iconic!!
Funniest/crackiest/it’s-terrible-but-I-still-love-it episode/scene
oh god... i do like the eclipse stuff at the beginning of s6 even tho it was so out there just because it was kinda fun watching everyone go wild
It’s-terrible-and-I-hate it episode/scene
oh like all of s7 but you know, the highlights. like the series finale and That Episode
Best episode/scene for my favorite character
oh that's tough. hmmm i can't commit to one scene but the bellamy/clarke scene on the beach is great for bellamy specifically. i am in favor of the unpopular opinion that him siding w pike is actually quite in character so i think watching him overcome that was great
Best episode/scene for my favorite ship
it's gotta be 4x13 aka praimfaya!! my fav scene for blarke is probably the if im on that list ur on that list scene tho
Best episode/scene for a particular supporting character
oh boy. i really really love raven reyes and i think the scene where she is hallucinating sinclair before she stops her heart and then brings herself back to life is kinda everything !! i don't choose pain i choose life!!
Best episode/scene for a character I don’t usually like
i don't love finn, but i think the whole spacewalker episode is really beautiful
Most visually beautiful or interesting episode/scene
i always love when abby and kane land on earth and they look out across the lake for the first time and abby says "it's so beautiful." just stunning
Most emotionally affecting episode/scene
oh man that's hard bc all the season finales are pretty sad. i do think lexa's death is just so beautiful and so moving. her last words are just insanely touching and gorgeous
Most powerful use of music in an episode/scene
i mean. shout out to shawn mendes lmao but honestly it's gotta be knockin on heaven's door bc she just is that bitch!!
Episode/scene that changed my perspective on the show
i think everything kinda changed when i got to murphys law? after wells dies and charlotte dies the stakes go higher in a way that rules. also twilight's last gleaming and the culling. whew.
Episode/scene where the acting stands out
i LOVE eliza griffin's acting during the scene in the s2 premiere when jasper is trying to get her not to pull the lever and she's so distrustful.
Overall best-written episode
it's gotta be the s2 finale like sorry but she is that bitch
send me a show!

The 100 rewatch 2023 S1 E2
Episode “Earth Skills”
The kids fleeing through the woods after Jasper had been impaled at the river.
Jasper is still alive... His screams echoing from far away through the woods... it’s frightening. “They took him!” THEY ARE NOT ALONE ON EARTH! Some people must have survived the apocalypse so many years ago!
Poor Jaha thinks his son is dead... just no...
Wells on the ground digging graves for the kids that haven’t survived the landing. Why him... Poor thing...
Post-coital Bellamy leaving the dropship shirtless - and me with my jaw dropped. (At least, while i was watching it many years ago for the first time ;) ). But he’s still an asshole. Especially towards Wells atm. “What’s wrong with a little chaos?”--- I’M JUST GETTING STARTED. Well... whatever you say Bell...
Murphy as Bellamy’s little soldier. Unf... But oh, look! Wells got it. But OF COURSE Clarke and the others come back and get the wrong picture.
“Life support on the ark is failing!” Oh look at the kids faces... They didn’t know this.
Bellamy and his first speech to the kids ever! “We’re stronger than you think!” Aggressively good. And he’s got some points...
On the ark: Oh god... Jaha and Abby talking about a culling already. But... “Hope is everything!” YES ABBY!
Oh... Jaha accusing Kane to possibly be the man behind the plot to him being shot down. I totally forgot!
The dropship camp on earth: Monty is “too important” and isn’t allowed to go on a rescue mission for his best friend Jasper. Clarke shows authority again. And rightful so.
And then... Bellarke... “I came here for you.” The tension is almost palpable. Her glares at him too. “I hear you have a gun.” And instead of just ANSWERING her he has the audacity to lift up his shirt at his hip with his beautiful veiny hand to show her: He indeed HAS a gun... More then one so. Lol... He’s so annoyingly sexy. Clarke looking right through his attitude. Just lifting an eyebrow. Uh oh... Is there some certain... tension... between them? Or am i making things up? Doesn’t matter. This is INTERESTING...
Bellamy never leaving the “princess” out of sight while out on the rescue mission, even willing to “cut off her hand to get that wristband”. Yeah well... As if i could believe you, big-mouth. ;)
The ark: RAVENNNN!!!! MY BEAUTIFUL SMARTASS RAVEN IS ENTERING THE STAGE!!! My day is saved. I LOVED Raven from the very first moment i saw her. And she’s a spacewalker! YESSS!
On earth again: Oh look, Atom hitting on O. And O hitting on him - mocking him. O being locked up with Monty in the dropship. Surprise surprise.
Abby and Jackson on the ark talking about Raven: “Ballsy kid.” “Yes she is, reminds me of someone...” Raven and Abby. This is going to be awesome.
Earth: Oh, yet ANOTHER scene filled with tension between rebel Bellamy and princess Clarke - BRAVE PRINCESS, there, he said it. ICONIC. And that trademark smirk that makes my knees go weak in a way.
Bell realizing that Wells only came down to earth for Clarke. For “someone he loves”. He’s not the only one. Bell thinking of his sister O, of course. He MAY BE an asshole. But a smart and caring one.
Meanwhile Atom shows feelings on the dropship: “Bell loves you, O.” And he envies that.
And now there’s another scene i would usually skip while watching: Clarke and Finn bathing and having fun in a pond. Whatever. Teens. But oh, look, there’s Jasper’s blood. “We*re close.”
The ark: Raven again. Smarty knows that the kids on earth aren’t dying. They’re just stubborn kids taking off their wristbands.
Butterfly-O! This is such a cheesy, yet so lovely scene to watch. Glowing butterflies! Little Octavia never saw something like that before. She’s in awe. There’s also Atom who follwed her. O’s got her (probably) first kiss, and it’s kinda cute.
Meanwhile: OH GOD, POOR JASPER! Tied to a tree! Wounded and bleeding and in pain! Who tf DID THIS to him?!
And now everything’s happening so fast again: Everyone’s running towards Jasper and then BOOM Clarke suddenly falls into a trap - BUT BELL’s THERE! Magically he’s the first one to catch her, saving her life. There are wooden piles in that earth hole... The others come to help. They’re pulling Clarke out of the trap. Clarke flashes Bellamy a look - almost unbelieving what he did for her. Who would have thought? And Bell’s face seem to say: Why tf have i done this? Did i really do THAT? Mh... INTERESTING.
The council of the ark sitting together. They believe that earth is uninhabitable. Well... all of them except for Abby. They’re talking about a culling... This is... makabre. They really want to sacrifice hundreds of lives to save others. It’s hard to listen to this. But Jaha abstains - and this way he’s giving Abby more time to figure out what’s REALLY going on on earth.
On earth: They try to get Jasper down from that tree. And then there’s that black puma from out of nowhere and Clarke goes “BELLAMY! GUN!” For the first time we see fear in Bellamy’s eyes. He tries for his gun but - OH LOOK, WELL’S GOT IT! Again. “Now she sees you.” Yes she does.
The ark: “Did someone call for a mechanic?” Raven. I LOVE this girl. And of COURSE Raven can secretly fix a 130 years old rescue pod to help Abby (and herself) to get down to earth to the others... OF... COURSE... Woah! She really IS the smartest. A QUEEN BEE.
Earth: Food for the kids in the camp! “WHO’S HUNGRY!” Bellamy and his voice again. Seriously. That is a story of its own... sigh
They have Jasper back in camp but it doesn’t look good for him. Bell already being and ass again, only giving out food if they agree to take off their wristbands. Wtf! I wanna slap him! And Murphy!
Oh- oh... Atom catched by Bellamy while kissing O... His precious sister... Now he has to bear the consequences. “I WON’T BE DISOBEYED!” Woah there... Bellamy may be a rebel asshole, but a ROYAL one. A rebel king. ;)
And in the end: Oh look! First glimpse of Lincoln lingering in the shadows of the wood!
Boom out.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This episode isn’t the best either, I know. But the whole thing is finally picking up speed and everything is in flow now. I remember while i watched it for the first time, that i felt VERY intrigued by the fact, that Bellamy, of all people, rescued the princess Clarke from falling into the trap. That was a plot choice. That was on purpose. And i felt like that this COULD lead to something. I didn’t know what that “something” would look like. But i HOPED that these two maybe... perhaps... would get along far more smoothly in the future... My senses were tingling. When these two shared looks with each other... there WAS something there. There’s no denying. And i liked what i saw. I still do. It’s still one of my fave episodes because of that. Also: I almost immediately fell in love with Raven Reyes. Dunno why exactly. She's just... so damn smart and beautiful. I have to admit that I indeed preferred her over Clarke as character. (Until S5 that is. From up on S5 Clarke was the no 1 female character for me. I suffered so much with her it's not even funny. But that's another story.)
I have to mention that at the point i watched the first season for the first time i haven‘t read The 100-novels. I started reading the first book around the 3rd season. So everything i felt was completely and only a reaction to what i saw on screen.
What i liked: Bellamy and Clarke bickering. Bellamy saving Clarke. RAVEN!
What i disliked: All this talk about a culling on the ark. And Bell and Murphy being assholes.
Fave quote(s): “What’s wrong with a little chaos?” “Did someone call for a mechanic?” ICONIC
Song(s) i associate with the episode: “Precious illusions” by Alanis Morissette ( “These precious illusions in my head did not let me down when I was a kid.
And parting with them is like parting with a childhood best friend..”)

NASA's Neutral Buoyancy Lab: The Ultimate Underwater Simulator for Astronauts
NASA’s Neutral Buoyancy Lab (NBL) is a state-of-the-art underwater facility located in Houston, Texas. It serves as an underwater simulation environment for astronauts to train for spacewalks and other extravehicular activities (EVAs). The NBL is one of the most advanced training facilities in the world and plays a critical role in preparing astronauts for the challenges they will face in space.
The NBL is a massive indoor pool that is over 200 feet long, 100 feet wide, and 40 feet deep. It contains a full-scale mock-up of the International Space Station (ISS) and other space structures, allowing astronauts to practice and perfect their spacewalking techniques in a controlled and safe environment. The pool is filled with over 6 million gallons of water, which provides a simulated weightless experience similar to that of space.
Astronauts are equipped with a full spacewalk suit, which provides them with life support and protection from the harsh conditions of space. The suit is buoyant, which makes it difficult for astronauts to move around in water. To overcome this challenge, the suit is weighted with lead weights to balance out the buoyancy, making it possible for astronauts to move around freely in the water. This process of weight balancing is called "neutral buoyancy," which gives the NBL its name.
The NBL is not only a training facility for spacewalking, but it is also used to test new spacewalk equipment and procedures. It allows engineers and scientists to observe how equipment and procedures perform in a simulated microgravity environment. This information is then used to make improvements and ensure the safety of astronauts in space.
One of the unique features of the NBL is its ability to simulate various lighting conditions, including daylight, nighttime, and the red lighting that is used during spacewalks. This capability allows astronauts to train for all types of spacewalking scenarios and ensures that they are well-prepared for any situation they may encounter in space.
In conclusion, NASA's Neutral Buoyancy Lab is a crucial component of astronaut training and space exploration. It provides a safe and controlled environment for astronauts to train for spacewalks and other EVAs, while also allowing engineers and scientists to test new equipment and procedures. The NBL plays a vital role in ensuring the success and safety of NASA's space missions.

Many Happy Returns - THE 100 REWRITE Chapter Thirteen
[THE 100 MASTERLIST]
Previous Chapter / Next Chapter
Summary: Bellamy, Michelle and Murphy rebelled and successfully sneaked out of camp right under Kane’s nose but they couldn’t have done it on their own as they were just tied up in a room until rescue came, and unexpectedly at that. On their way to get their friends back, they got into quite the situation more than once, some a little deadlier than others.
Words: 5.7k
Warnings: The 100 season 2 spoilers (episode 3 “Reapercussions” & episode 4 “Many Happy Returns”), violence, blood, wounds, lots of yelling and arguments, swearing, life-or-death situation, angst, a hint of sarcasm
The group had been walking through the woods since nightfall and now, the sun was shining through the trees’ leaves. Bellamy had let go of Murphy but kept his hands tied and walked behind Finn, at the head of their makeshift research group and Michelle was alongside the handcuffed young man, with Monroe and another teenager behind them all, aiming around with their guns, on the lookout, covering their friends’ backs.
“All right, Murphy. Where to now?” Bellamy asked, peeking over at the latter. Murphy slowly came to a stop and drifted his peer’s attention at his tied hands.
“What do you say we lose these first, huh?”
“No. Again.” He instantly refused, glancing around and up in the trees.
“If we get attacked, I have nothing to defend myself with.” Murphy insisted, and he kind of had a point on that one but Bellamy had something to retort to that as well and it made Michelle stare at him.
“First, I don’t care. Second, you’ve got your girlfriend to help you not get your ass kicked by the Grounders.” Just as he finished his sentence, Finn turned around and walked up to them and just like that, he cut off his ties with his knife and walked away, not saying a word.
“Thank you.” He and Michelle watched the young man catch up with Spacewalker and addressing him, surely bothered by the initiative he just took. “After you, soldier.”
She chortled, shaking her hand and took a step past him and he then walked alongside her, behind Bellamy and Finn, now together at the lead of the small group. She sighed and glanced at the stiches closing the wound across the palm of her hand, holding her machine gun with her other hand. She put some tension in her fingers and frowned slightly and left her arm hanging by her side. She had no notion of how long it would take to heal but she knew it would take a while. She got her fucking hand slashed by a Grounder but at least it got her a cool war scar she could tell the story of if asked about it. Michelle raised her head and followed Murphy with her eyes as he walked faster to get beside Bellamy after the latter and Finn finished talking.
“So do I get a gun now?” The instanteous and sole response he got to this question was Bellamy unceremoniously pushing him ahead of him, not making any comment. Michelle chuckled and just kept walking.
“Everybody down, down. Get down.” Murphy suddenly whispered, forcing Bellamy and Michelle, who were walking in front of him, to the ground, his hands on their shoulders. After Bellamy got down, he let go off him but kept a hand on Michelle while the two others with them imitated. They got to a big metallic structure, covered in moss, almost frozen in place. Whatever it used to be, it was now stuck by the nature around it with bits of it falling apart as it was a hundred years old already, but the height of the whole thing was still an impressive sight. “This is it. Told you I’d find it.”
“I see nothing but Grounders.” Bellamy noted, looking through the spyglass on his gun. Michelle let out a scoff and whispered.
“Didn’t expect a Grounders’ camp to be filled with Grounders?” He pursed his lips and shot an annoyed look at her. She was right but he wasn’t pleased with her roasting him any change she gets. Murphy smirked at her comment.
“Our people aren’t here.” He exhaled.
“Wait a minute.” Finn spoke up, cutting off Bellamy as he looked through the scope of his gun. “They’ve got stuff from our dropship.”
“So maybe they know where our friends are.” Bellamy thought out loud.
“Yeah, or maybe they killed them already.” Murphy retorted.
“Son of a bitch.”
“What is it?” Bellamy asked Finn.
“The one with the one eye.” Bellamy and Michelle both looked through their guns’ scopes. “Around his neck.” Michelle looked down and her mouth opened in disbelief, her brows furrowed and eyes wide.
“What am I looking at?”
“That’s Clarke’s watch.” She told Bellamy, staring ahead of them.
“It was her father’s.” Finn added and she gave him a sidelong glance, almost as if she felt threatened by him acting like he knew her so well, when she was the one who had grown up with her and they saw each others as sisters now.
“She wouldn’t give that up without a fight.”
“Damn right about that, Bellamy.” Michelle affirmed in a low tone. She glanced over at Finn again when she heard him add something.
“Neither will we.” She observed him for a second and just as Bellamy did, she brought her eye to the scope of her gun, watching the Grounders’ every move.
“Okay. You’re with me.” Bellamy then declared, looking at Michelle and Finn. “You two stay here. If this thing goes south, take out the other Grounders. But don’t shoot the Grounder with the watch. Copy?”
“Copy.” Finn and Michelle nodded.
“Copy. What about Murphy?” Monroe wondered and the latter sketched a brief smirk.
“Yeah, do I get a gun now?”
“Something like that.” He was then pulled from the ground by Bellamy and he, Michelle and Finn walked around the camp by the other side, bending over and trying to be as discreet as possible. Murphy was given two round rocks and sent to hide behind a tree. The three others hid in the thick and tall bushes all around as he tapped the stones together to catch the attention of the Grounder wearing Clarke’s watch around his neck, and it worked. He was cautious so he followed the noise one step at a time, holding his bladed weapon tight in his hand, on the lookout. From where she hid with Finn, she followed Murphy slink away with her eyes and when the Grounder got there, there was no one and Bellamy stood up behind him and the second the man turned around he was hit vigorously in the face and fell to the ground heavily with a grunt. Murphy, Michelle and Finn walked out of the bushes and went near the Grounder. Michelle outpaced Finn and pulled the watch from the Grounder’s neck, breaking the thread it was hanging onto. “We need to take him somewhere quiet.”
“I know just the place.” Finn declared and Bellamy nodded before the two carried the man to a bunker in the forest that the Spacewalker knew of, and Michelle and Murphy came along.
“We’re gonna do this again… and this time, you’re gonna stop screwing with us.” Bellamy was not having it with the Grounders and started to get pissed off by the silence he buried himself in. Michelle observed the scene, leaning against a wall with Murphy seating on a chair by her side, and watched him show the watch to the Grounder. “Where did you find this?”
“I told you. I found it outside your camp.”
“He’s lying. She would never take it off voluntarily.” Finn wasn’t buying it. Michelle frowned and started thinking about it. She had already thought that it was odd and quite unlikely that Clarke took it off herself. She didn’t believe that, and none of the boys did either.
“I know.” Bellamy said softly while Finn took the watch and leaned towards the Grounder, his face tensed.
“Where is the girl who was wearing this watch?” He gritted and yelled through his teeth.
“I never saw a girl.” The Grounder wasn’t scared by any of them and anything they could do or say to him. He wasn’t fazed by any of it and didn’t even seem to care about the nasty injuries made to his face.
“Another lie.” Michelle glanced at Murphy from the corner of her eyes when he made a comment. “Maybe you should stop asking him nicely—”
“Shut up, Murphy.” Bellamy cut him off, still staring down on the Grounder. Michelle didn’t react and waited to see what was going to happen. She had no intention to intervene, at least not at the moment. She didn’t know what happened to Clarke and if the Grounder right there or any of his group had something to do with her disappearance, but she had little regard for the wounded man sitting in front of her. “Where are our friends? You took them. We know you did. Just tell us where.”
“Murphy’s right. We’re wasting time.” Finn pulled out his knife and threw a punch at the Grounder. “Answer the question! Where’s the girl who was wearing this watch?” Bellamy tried to push him away, but Finn was so aggravated, he struggled against him, ready to go at it again and beat the man to death if it came to it.
“Finn, stop. You don’t wanna do this. Trust me.” Even though he wasn’t taking his eyes off the Grounder, he eventually calmed down and stopped moving, while Bellamy tried to knock some sense into him. “There are some lines you can’t uncross.” There was a brief instant of calm and silence where Finn seemed to pull his shit back together but then he pivoted on his feet and started hitting the Grounder, again and again and again and just shouted before Bellamy grabbed him to try and pull him away again.
“Back off!” He cried out and pushed Bellamy away, aiming his gun at him. Michelle saw how carried away Finn got, and she thought that he would really pull the trigger at some point. She felt uneasy in this instant and despite her not being close to Bellamy, she didn’t really want him to get shot by the prick she considered Finn to be. She clenched her jaw, not moving and as her arms were crossed over her chest, she subconsciously squeezed with her hands in apprehension.
“Put the gun down, Finn.” The latter looked frantic with his wide eyes and gritted teeth, panting like a wild animal. He suddenly turned back to the Grounder, putting the gun to his head and Michelle kind of relaxed a little but still, he was maybe threatening an innocent man and they had no idea, and would he shoot and that was the case, he would have kille someone for no good reason except that he was enraged and maddened by Clarke’s disappearance.
“Three seconds.” He declared, looking hysterical now. “Two! One.”
“Okay.” The Grounder surprisingly gave in. “I’ll tell you. Your friends are east of here. The village where we take our prisoners of war.”
“East where? How do we get to them?”
“I can draw you a map… but you should hurry, soon they’ll outlive their usefulness." Finn finally put down the gun.
“Get him something to draw a map.” He stepped away and Monroe came forward and unceremoniously gave the Grounder a piece of paper. Murphy stood up and walked past Michelle and stopped next to Bellamy for a second.
“And you thought I was the crazy one.”
“Gather up your gear.” Bellamy got up after looking at the map drawn by the Grounder and he addressed his peers, standing around him. “We’re leaving.”
“What about him?” Sterling wondered, looking over at the tied up Grounder, kneeling on the floor.
“For now, we leave him. We’ll deal with him when we’re done.” Bellamy decided.
“What if he escapes? He knows exactly where we’re going.” Murphy had a point there and Michelle shifted her gaze on Bellamy, waiting for what he had to say to him.
“We’re not killing him.”
“I’m not really seeing another option here.” John insisted. “If we don’t take care of this now, this is gonna blow back on us and you know that.”
“He’s unarmed, Murphy.”
“He’s a Grounder.” Michelle and Murphy both retorted with a noticeable exasperation and they glanced at each other after they spoke at the same time, having had the same thought that went through their minds. Murphy looked at the others and they kept quiet, which seemed to baffle him in the moment.
“Really? Come on, tell him.”
“I don’t know.”
“You don’t know what?” Michelle spat at Monroe, stepping towards her. The girl just didn’t want to stand up to Bellamy and both Michelle and John could see that.
“He’s gonna tell his people everything. We’re as good as dead.” Murphy added, raising his voice in annoyance and discontent in the face of his peers’ blatant cowardice to say something. “Our friends too.”
“Look, we’re not doing this. End of discussion. You want him, you go through me.”
“What exactly happened to you, huh? You’re talking like you never killed a Grounder before.” Murphy shot back.
“That was in battle.” Bellamy replied on a serious tone. “This would be an execution—” They all jumped when they heard a loud shot and saw Finn holding the Grounder, whose now lifeless body lied on the ground, at gunpoint and Finn just stared down at it for a second and walked past them with a straight face, like he didn’t just kill someone and was completely cold and heartless. This is the part that gave chills to Michelle.
“Let’s get moving.” Everyone just stood there and watched him leave the bunker in silence. Murphy didn’t make any comment and just shot a glance at Michelle who swallowed harshly, and she followed him outside with a quiet sigh. It would have had to happen. She agreed about that, but how Finn just killed that man in cold blood, out of the blue, was alarming to say the least.
“Everyone, eyes peeled.” Bellamy ordered as they progressed through the forest, running. “We’re in Grounder territory.”
“Everything is Grounder territory, all right? I can’t keep running.” Murphy went to a halt, Michelle next to him and Monroe and Sterling stopping in their tracks behind the two. Finn and Bellamy turned around and the spacewalker stepped towards Murphy. “We don’t even know if the guy Finn killed is telling the truth.”
“Keep moving.” He suddenly pulled Murphy by his jacket and Michelle jumped on her feet, grabbed Finn’s arm and vigorously pushed him away so he would let go of Murphy.
“Now you back off.” She gave him a look of contempt, quoting his little crazy moment inn the bunker when he threatened Bellamy with his gun. John glanced at Michelle. She was frowning, infuriated by Finn, the muscles of her face tensed while Bellamy addressed the latter.
"Give them a minute."
“No, we can’t. You hear what that Grounder said: “they’ll outlive their usefulness.”
“I heard what he said when you had a gun to his head.” Bellamy retorted.
“Look, you think I wanted to do that?”
“Given the poker-faced you pulled back there, I'd say you certainly looked like it.” Michelle commented and Finn turned to her, but she just held his gaze, crossing her arms. She didn’t care much about the fact that he killed the Grounder in itself, it was more the way he did it that was so problematic to her, and Bellamy. Killing wasn’t supposed to be something easy to do, and that’s precisely what it looked like for Finn. She didn’t want him near Clarke again after all the tantrums he had thrown just today. Something was wrong with this guy suddenly.
“He would’ve told his people we’re coming and by the time we got there, our people would be dead.” How emotional he was being about it was understandable, but he acted as if he was completely innocent and pure hearted and had never done anything wrong in his life. He acted like he was the victim in this situation.
“What the fuck’s gotten into you, Finn?” She pursed her lips and groaned, shaking her head.
“Maybe that’s something you can live with, but I can’t.” He stepped towards her, raising the tone of his voice gradually and when he suddenly shouted the end of his sentence, he pushed her and Murphy caught her by the shoulders before she actually fell. She gritted her teeth and took a step forward.
“You think I could live with letting my sister die? Just fuc—”
“Enough.” Bellamy rose his voice, putting an end to this heated argument that would have escalated pretty quickly if no one had stopped it. Michelle was thoughtfull and smart but when it came to defending her loved ones, she could get carried away but unlike Finn, it wasn’t insanity, it was genuine anger and frustration and right now, he was the source of that anger. “Finn, I know you did what you think you had to do. But you are not yourself right now and I can’t be out here with another loose cannon…”
“Guys.” Monroe spoke up, holding up her gun a few feet ahead on the path. Bellamy turned around as they all looked at to what she was showing. There were bodies along the way with insects buzzing over them.
“Fall in.” They obeyed to Bellamy and walked behind him in silence. Michelle was quick to put the fight and the heat of the moment behind her as she looked at all the rotting corpses they walked by, frowning in horror.
“Where the hell did, they come from?” Murphy wondered.
“From the Ark.”
“Another station crashed.” Michelle added to Bellamy’s reply. They walked further down the path in heavy silence, looking at the bodies lying on the ground here and there until they reached a cliff, and right there below them was the destroyed station.
“That’s a rough landing.” Murphy observed and all six of them just stood there, looking down.
“There’s nothing we can do for this people.” Bellamy eventually stated when Finn stepped away. “We gotta go.” But as they started to walk away, they heard something nearby and just glanced at each other in confusion.
“Did you hear that?” Murphy inquired, quickly walking back to the edge of the cliff.
“Hey. Hey, someone’s down there.” Monroe pointed.
“Hey! Up here.” Bellamy called to the survivor.
“Please help me!”
“Mel?” Sterling recognized the woman down there.
“Help me!” She begged.
“You know her?”
“Shut up, Murphy. She’s my friend. We have to do something.”
“And what would you have us do, huh? Do we even have a rope or something?” Michelle asked. If they could help her, she would agree to try but if they had nothing, they could use to pull her up the cliff, there would be nothing they could do. Even helping her with a rope and all of their strength together, it would put them all at risk of falling down. Sterling clicked his tongue and walked away, kneeled and searched his backpack as his friend kept begging for help and Finn walked closer to Bellamy.
“We can’t stop.” He shook his head.
“This isn’t a Grounder, Finn. We have a rope.”
“You saw her. She’d never be able to hold on to it.” He argued through his gritted teeth. “We have to lower somebody down. It’ll take time that we don’t have. I hate this as much as you, but our friends—”
“I know. Okay? I know.” Bellamy cut him off. Sterling had taken the rope from the bag and walked back to the edge of the cliff.
“We’ll come back for her. Okay?” It took a second for Bellamy to think and he nodded, agreeing reluctantly.
“We’re moving out.” He turned to the others, and he saw Sterling already starting to climb down the cliff.
“Yeah, well, it looks like we’re taking that break after all, huh?” Murphy remarked, watching Sterling before glancing at Bellamy. Michelle hoped for their peer to manage to get his friend up there with them and rescue her, but it was quite unlikely that he would succeed so after a second, she followed Murphy as he took a few steps away and rested against a fallen tree trunk. She sat crossed-legs and brought her hair together in her hands into a low ponytail because she was getting sick of the rebellious locks that got in her face and bothered her and she slumped against the tree trunk, her neck resting on it, and looked up at the clear sky with a sigh. Now that they finally had a real moment of peace, the only thing she could think of was her brief exchange with Abby before they went out in the woods. She hated that Kane was so much on her mind, but discovering her father -someone she had always dreamed to meet as a child- was a man she despised was quite the news and it was something that upset her immensely and she frowned just thinking about it. She had very much mixed feeling about it and was confused and lost, having no idea what to do or think about it. She didn’t like to have her thoughts focused on this when this was the only break they would have for whatever how long it would take them to find Clarke and the rest of their missing friends.
“What are you thinking about?” She snapped out of her thoughts and glanced at John before straightening her head up, rubbing her neck for an instant, just shrugging. She didn’t know what to say because she still had to figure out if she wanted to tell anyone about what Abby told her. It still didn’t even feel real to her yet.
“Uhm, nothing.”
“Right.” He nodded, definitely not buying it. He could easily tell something was wrong right now. She sighed and leaned on her knees and started drawing random shapes in the dust with the tip of her finger.
“I, uh…” She bit her lips, frowning some more before relaxing her face with Murphy not taking his eyes off of her, genuinely wondering what was going on with her. “You know when Abby stitched my wound? She talked to me about, who… who my dad was. I don’t remember if I’ve ever told you that I never knew who my dad was growing up but whatever, kinda irrelevant uhm…”
She took a second to think how to say this when they heard the girl down the cliff scream and they jumped on their feet and rushed to the others lined up near the edge. Michelle looked down as she dusted the back of her pants. There was a part of her that was kind of relieved that she didn’t say it, as if she didn’t want to tell anyone else otherwise the fact that Kane was her father would get more real or something, she wasn’t sure but at the moment she pushed these thoughts away and focused on the life-or-death situation right under her eyes. Sterling stretched out his arms to his friend when suddenly, the rope came loose from the tree trunk around which he had tied it and he fell to his death. Michelle stumbled as the rope passed furiously through their legs and Murphy grabbed her arms when her feet brushed the far edge of the cliff. Eyes wide, she stepped away, in shock of what just happened, and what almost happened to her. She was panting and she shivered when she saw their friend hit the rock below with his back.
“I got you. I got you.” Murphy mumbled. He held her arms with one hand and took her hand with the other, holding onto her firmly. She brought her free hand to her mouth as they stared down the cliff. She was still shaking a little so she held Murphy’s hand like crazy, trying to calm down and she swallowed harshly, taking deep breath after deep breath.
“Mel! Mel, hold on.” Bellamy crouched down and talked to the girl, trying to reassure her as she sobbed below. “Focus on me. You can do this.”
“No!” She cried out.
“Yes, you can. You’re strong.”
“I’m not strong.” Her voice was shaken with tears and fear. “Stubborn, maybe.”
“So be stubborn a little longer. Yeah. I’m not gonna let you die. You hear me?” He stood up and Finn faced him.
“We’re out of rope.”
“So we make a new one.”
“If anything happens to our friends—”
“I don’t know if we can save our friends!” Bellamy just snapped and yelled at Finn, cutting him off. “For all we know, they may be dead already. We’ve all thought it. But what we do know is we can save this one girl.”
“Sterling was one of us.” Monroe spoke up. “She was his friend. I’m in.”
“Oh my god.” Michelle swallowed again, closing her eyes for a couple seconds and breathing out. She obviously didn’t want to die if this rescue mission failed, but there was something deeper to her fear than just that, and she hated that she was scared to die because of Kane. She turned her head when she heard Murphy’s voice.
“How do we do it?”
“We make a new rope from the wreckage. Go find wires, seat belts, anything.” Murphy nodded and as he dragged Michelle along with him, he motioned for Monroe to come too, and they jogged away. Michelle was definitely going to help because she had no desire to see another one of them fall and die, except maybe Finn that is but in any case, she was going to work even harder to help find materials for their makeshift rope since she would not be able to help hold it. The stitches of the wound across the palm of her hand were too fresh for her to apply such pressure onto it and if she did, it would definitely open again and this time, the blood loss that it would provoke would maybe be too much for them to have time to bring her back to camp to get taken care of. This also meant immense loss of time if something happened, so it was better for this whole thing if she participated in another way and then stood by and hoped for the best.
It took them some time to put it all together but here they were, Murphy, Finn and Monroe holding the rope with all their strength once they had tied it tightly around the tree trunk. Bellamy was ready to go down as he walked backwards towards the edge and therefore the void. Michelle was anxious, watching his every step. She started to get even more nervous and worried when she saw the three holding the rope slid closer to the edge as they brought Bellamy lower so he could reach the girl below. Murphy was first in line, right to the edge and she just couldn’t take any chances. She took off her jacket and wrapped it around her wounded hand and went behind Monroe and took her place in the line. She widened her mouth, containing a moan of pain as she felt tension in her hand and she just groaned and gritted her teeth, trying to concentrate on something else than the pain.
“Michelle—”
“I got her! Pull us up!” Murphy’s call out to Michelle was cut off by Bellamy. Slowly, they took one step back at a time, pulling the rope up to bring Bellamy and the girl there with them, safe and sound. All four of them put every ounce of strength they had into pulling them up.
“John!” Michelle cried out when suddenly, the seat belts they had fastened together gave way and Murphy found himself with his arms outstretched on either side, holding, almost on his own, onto the rope that kept Bellamy and Mel from falling over the edge, with the support of the three others behind him.
“Come on, a little help!” He grunted as Finn rushed to hold onto the rope to support Murphy and Michelle just fell down from the sudden release after she had been putting in so much effort. She didn’t even think of looking at her hands to see if she damaged anything again because she couldn’t take her eyes off the two boys, their arms strained holding the last rope holding the two down below as they struggled at the edge of the cliff. Monroe joined them up and Michelle was left just hoping; She wouldn’t be much help if she came anyway.
“What the hell is happening up there?” Bellamy inquired.
“Just hold on.” Finn retorted. Something whissed passed Michelle’s ear and she widened her eyes, panting when an arrow crashes into the ground right next to her leg.
“Grounders!” She yelled, warning the others as a dozen more arrows flew around them.
“Michelle, cover us.” Finn handed a gun to Monroe who held it out to Michelle and putting one knee down, she got rid of her jacket around her hand and aimed around, searching for any Grounder she could shoot at.
“How many are there?”
“We can’t see them.” Finn told Bellamy. “In the trees! In the trees! Aim for the trees!”
“That’s what I’m fuckin’ doing, all right!” Michelle shouted and she glanced behind her when a spear came right by her side and got stuck in the ground, not hitting anyone by chance. She got her shit together and managed to put down a few Grounders she saw through the bushes, but she collapsed to the side when an arrow went right into her thigh, letting out a sharp yelp. She sat on her side, puffing and blowing, trying to hold on and she shot again at the trees around them until Monroe kneeled next to her.
“Let me take over.” Michelle reluctantly gave her the gun and grabbing her jacket with one hand, she crawled to the backpack Sterling left to the side. She got closer to the bag but each time she moved, dragging her legs along with her while her thigh was literally bleeding out, she couldn’t help but verbalize the utter pain she was in as with every moves she made, she felt the arrow twitch in her flesh, her cries merging into exhausted groans. Her arms eventually gave in and she slumped to the ground in a whine, wincing in pain as a horn blew through the forest. Trying to catch her breath and put up with the pain, she leaned on her bare elbow and just looked at the forest in confusion. Then it hit her. It was the exact sound they heard before the acid fog came. She tried to straighten up, put her jacket on and frantically searched the bag for something to help with the bleeding, which was surely going to get worse as time went on.
“Monroe, back on the rope! Come on!” The girl let go of the gun and rushed back to Murphy and Finn and pulled as strongly as she could. As there was nothing in the bag, Michelle exhaled and took a deep breath, placing both her hands on the arrow shaft and forced on it to break it as close to the skin as she could. She didn’t know what good it would do but she figured that without a whole shaft sitcking out her leg, movements would be easier. She then pressed her palms around the entering wound and tried to focus as she was obviously in pain but overall, she figured she was fine and once again, lucky it didn’t hit anything vital, but it still hurt like hell. Michelle frowned and closed her eyes, panting and shaking her head as she started to feel a little dizzy and when she opened her eyes again, Murphy was crouched near her.
“Octavia.” Michelle glanced at Bellamy when she heard him pronounce the name of his younger sister and she thought it was weird until she saw the girl standing nearby. They approached each other and hugged tightly, happy to be reunited.
Michelle clenched her jaw, pursuing her lips as Octavia pressed the wound with a scrap of tissue to clean the blood around the wound and stop any more to come out. The head of the arrow was still in but there wasn’t much they could do without someone like Abby, or even Clarke. Octavia then tied the tissue around Michelle’s leg, tightly and the latter gave her a smile, quite grateful for her help.
“Thank you. With all these wounds I get, I’m gonna end up with quite a lot of scars.”
“Yeah.” Octavia gave her a friendly smile and chuckled, nodding.
“We’re lucky you came when you did. Honestly.”
“I was going back to camp when I heard shots.” She explained.
“Nice foghorn. What happened to your boyfriend?” Murphy who was walking around, watching Octavia tend to Michelle, bent over to take a look at the horn hanging from her bag and Bellamy’s sister clapped his hand so he would let go of her stuff.
“He’s gone.”
“Right.” Michelle looked at Murphy stepping away when Bellamy went to crouch behind Octavia. The young woman looked away, crossing Murphy’s gaze as she tried not to listen to Bellamy and Octavia’s exchange even though she couldn’t really help it since she was just right there.
“Hey. I’m sorry, O.” His sister simply nodded in silence before standing up.
“The Grounders will be back, so we need to go. Now.”
“Yes, we do.” Finn agreed, crouched near the map. Murphy walked to Michelle as she looked at Bellamy, Octavia and Finn.
“Octavia says the arrow might be poisoned. I have to take them home.”
“I know.” Finn sighed and handed a piece of paper to Bellamy.
“I’ll meet you as soon as I can.” Bellamy promised and the crazy spacewalker nodded. Murphy helped Michelle up and she took support on his shoulder until they reached Bellamy and Octavia.
“Parting. Such sweet sorrow, right?” Michelle took her arm off him and stood on her own as he walked away, following Finn.
“Where the hell do you think you’re going?” Bellamy inquired. Murphy just stopped in his tracks and turned to the young man.
“Come on. Bellamy, you know if I go with you, they’ll just lock me up again.” Michelle was pleasantly surprised to see Bellamy throw a gun at Murphy instead of insisting on arguing about this, as they did a few times in the past.
“Really?” Octavia voiced her confusion. Michelle and Murphy exchanged a gaze as he loaded the gun.
“Watch his back.” Bellamy requested and John nodded in response before running after Finn to catch up with him before he went too far away. Blake then turned to his sister, under her scrutanizing look. “I can’t get them home without you.”
“Of course, you can’t.”
“Let’s go.” Michelle followed Octavia and Bellamy limping as they brought Monroe, who had been slightly injured in the attack and the girl they rescued.
