Basically so don't be expecting an update on them three any time soon. So I really hope that you enjoy this fanficion. If you do please show your support by following, favoriting and reviewing!
The sky people came two days ago. Lexa had been observing them for those days. They were like baby elephants the amount of noise they made. She found it quite amusing. However then she spotted some Trikru scouts and how she didn't want to be found in fear of having to go back, she fled the screen. Lexa doesn't want to be found now, she's been gone for two years. She doesn't need to go back nor does she want to. Sure the clans would welcome her back but Lexa didn't want to be welcomed back. She liked the freedom. The freedom of not having to carry the weight of every single failure on her back.
Lexa was sat on a branch of a tree watching the different things of nature happen when she heard shouting. Lexa when to go investigate to see 6 of the sky people. One was tied to a tree (he seemed injured), two were trying to get him down and three were keeping guard. It seemed to be a reaper trap. Lexa couldn't keep her eyes off the blonde. She was gorgeous, maybe even the most beautiful person she'd ever seen. Her blonde hair was only slightly held back by a braid pulled back keeping it out of her face but still down, blue eyes like the sky and a pale complexion. Lexa found it hard to tear her eyes away when she heard a noise. She looks hoping it was just another loud sky person however she spotted a panther, a large black killing machine, coming towards them. "Bellamy, gun!" The blonde shouted. Lexa felt the urge to protect her.
Lexa grabbed a throwing knife from her belt and threw it right into the panther's eye. It growled in pain but did not die. The was a gunshot in the panther's direction but it missed completely. 'Great now they are going to attract more creatures. Maybe some reapers.'. Lexa grabbed her sword and plunged it into the panther's skull in a swift motion. Then it fell to the ground, dead. "Who are you?" The guy with the gun shouted pointing at Lexa. The boy had black skin, dark brown eyes, and black hair cut very short with an athletic build.
They all seemed scared of her apart from one. Clarke was fascinated by this women. Lexa pulled her knife from the panther's eye and sheathed her sword. "You should cut your friend down before reapers come." Lexa advised them taking no notice of the gun. She knew that the guy with the gun didn't have it in him to kill her. She could see it in his eyes. He didn't lower the gun.
"What are reapers?" Clarke asks her.
The man with thick dark brown hair and brown eye along with olive skin and appears to be in his late teens or early twenties then snaps "How do we know you aren't one of them?"
Lexa rolls her eyes. "Because if I was a reaper you'd all be dead. Reapers are cannibalistic savages. Your friend is in one of their traps." Lexa quickly explains and she is beginning to get a bit aggravated at the gun pointed at her skull. "I mean you no harm so put down the gun before you hurt yourself."
"Just tell us who you are!" He demands, 'his boy needs to have his ass kicked' Lexa thought but left it alone for now.
"My name is Lexa." Lexa almost said 'kom Trikru' but she isn't Trikru anymore. Yes it had been two years since she left but she never normally introduced herself. All grounders around here knew her name and some even knew her face, most forget over time. So she didn't normally introduce herself. Wells put the gun away getting a weird look from both Bellamy and Murphy who seemed distrustful of Lexa.
"I'm Clarke," Clarke introduced then pointed at Wells "This is Wells," then to Bellamy, "Bellamy," to Murphy "Murphy," to Finn "Finn and we are trying to save our friend Jasper." Lexa looked at the boy. He looked to have been speared then they covered the wound. He might have poison in his system but that's not really the reapers style. Lexa knew it wasn't Trikru because she knew their tactics and they weren't savages.
"I'd get him down before the reapers come." Lexa told them. She turned around to walk away but twisted her body to look at Clarke. "If you need anything, just call my name. I will most likely hear." Lexa added surprising herself. Why did she want to help these people so much?
Lexa then disappeared into the forest and out of sight. Clarke wanted to follow, to find out more. This was the first grounder she'd ever laid eyes upon and she was captivating. Her brown hair was kept out of her face with a number of layered braids, forest green eyes and plump lips. Clarke knew she was beautiful but Lexa also was mysterious. Clarke wanted, needed, to know more.
Clarke turned to look at Jasper. Finn and Murphy had got him down. They had climbed down too. Wells grabbed one of Jasper's arms and put it around his shoulders to support him. Finn took the other side whilst Bellamy and Murphy took the panther that Lexa had killed. "Let's get back to camp."
Clarke was tired of hearing Jasper's moans and groans. It had been three days and he still wasn't getting better. He was getting worse. Clarke knew he had some type of infection. The paste on the bandage from the grounders had an antibiotic quality but she needed to find more of it or Jasper was going to die. Clarke knew it was dangerous to leave camp alone but Wells was consistently trying to convince her that he was sorry for killing for dad like she would forgive him. Finn was telling her that Jasper was going to die so she should just give up. Clarke didn't give up. Bellamy and the others were out hunting leaving Murphy in charge.
Clarke was sat just far enough away from camp to be able to see it but not be able to hear it or be seen. She wondered if Lexa was around and could help her. Lexa was another thing Clarke couldn't stop thinking about. Clarke guessed Lexa wouldn't be close and if she called for her than the rest of the 100 would hear her. Clarke knew it was made from some type of plant but didn't know which.
She heard someone drop behind her. She turned around thinking it was a grounder. Clarke turned to strike at the grounder then to run but her right wrist was caught. She saw Lexa looking at her with a raised eyebrow. "Your stance gives away your strike and leaves you left side unprotected." Lexa told Clarke calmly letting her wrist go.
"How long have you been here?" Clarke asked looking quickly down at wrist then back to Lexa.
"I heard the moaning of your friend for the last three days and curiosity got the best of me." Lexa had also saw a Trikru around here and was worried that they had seen Clarke. She wasn't going to dwell on her worry for the sky girl.
Clarke wondered how the grounder was always neutral. She let nothing slip past. "Can I ask you a question?" Lexa nodded. Clarke let Lexa look at the substance. "This was on Jasper's wound, do you know what it is?" Lexa examined the substance carefully.
Lexa had saw it before. She remember having to go fetch it for Anya when her mentor was injured after a reaper attack when Lexa was still Anya's second. Lexa missed her mentor, she was like a older sister, and was one of the only reason that Lexa might have stayed but then Anya was the reason she left. Lexa stopped thinking about that. "Yes, I have used it before. It is seaweed from a nearby river. Do you wish me to take you?" Lexa again surprised herself by wanting to help Clarke. It was something about her that allured Lexa.
Clarke gave Lexa a smile. "Yes. Thank you." Lexa have Clarke a nod. "Show the way and can we be quick?"
"I'm not the one who should be worried about being quick, Clarke." Lexa corrected her and her lips twitched up slightly.
"Did you just make a joke?"
"I am capable of them." Lexa then started walking in the direction of the river. Clarke laughed under her breathe before catching up with Lexa. "How did you people come from the sky?" Lexa asked, the question was filling her mind.
"We came from space station called the Ark, we were criminals who had no reached the age to be floated," Lexa looked at Clarke not understanding what floating was. "floating is leaving people to die in space without air so they suffocate. We were dropped in a drop ship to the Earth."
"What did you do up in the sky?" Lexa asked genuinely curious.
"I liked to draw." Clarke told Lexa.
"Criminals?" Clarke nodded "What did you do?"
"I was convicted of treason after me and my dad found out that the Ark was running out of oxygen. My dad was floated but I'm only 17 years old so to keep me quiet, they locked me in solitary after the council knew we were going to tell everyone." Clarke explained and Lexa nodded.
Lexa heard something but ignored it. She guessed it was just Clarke and her being loud as she stepped. Though Clarke wasn't as bad as her fellow Skaikru. "This council how did they find out?"
Clarke's jaw clenched. "Wells."
"The branwada who pointed a gun at me?"
"Branwada?"
"It means fool in Trigedasleng."
Then Clarke's foot hit something. She moved the leaves from under it crouching down and see a car. Lexa cocked her head to the side looking at it. "It's a car from before the war." Clarke muttered before standing back up again. Clarke chuckled. "Yeah, that was Wells. His dad ran the Ark and because-" Lexa definitely heard something. She covered Clarke's mouth with her gloved hand stopping her mid-sentence. Lexa pulled Clarke behind a tree. Clarke have Lexa a look which translated to 'what the hell'. The grounder put her finger to her lips. She saw two reapers walking in the direction of them.
"Reapers." Lexa whispered, she removed her hand from Clarke's mouth. Lexa grabbed her dagger and handed it to Clarke. Then took her sword. "Stay here, use the knife if you have to." Lexa ordered and vanished behind another tree. The blonde felt her heart racing in her chest. She looked from behind the tree just in time to see Lexa behind one of the reapers.
Lexa drove her sword through the reapers chest effortless like she had done it a million times. Clarke guessed she had. The other reaper turned and tried to strike Lexa with a sword. The blow missed as the grounder ducked. Clarke gasped. This detracted the reaper just enough for Lexa to drive her sword into the reapers stomach.
Lexa removed her sword and put it back into her belt. There was blood on her hands and face. Lexa went back to Clarke. "Are you okay?" Clarke asked in concern.
"I'm fine, Clarke. We should move before more come." Lexa advised, Clarke moved to give back Lexa's dagger. "Keep it, you might need it." Lexa told Clarke and there was that urge to protect Clarke again. "This way." Lexa began walking.
Clarke fell back into step with Lexa. "Where did you learn to fight like that?"
"I was trained to be a warrior since I was a child, Clarke." Lexa answered her question. They exited the trees just as she did. Lexa pointed at the red sea weed. "That should help your friend." Lexa told Clarke.
"Are you sure?"
Lexa nodded. "Sha. I come here to relax the mind." Lexa walked over to the river and started to wash her face and hands from the ripper blood on them. Clarke watched Lexa slightly before grabbing some of the sea weed. Clarke put the sea weed back into her bag. Lexa stood next to her with a clean face and hands.
Then a huge flock of birds came flying towards them. Lexa shielded Clarke slightly as they flee past. "Does that normally happen?" Clarke asked a weary Lexa. "Is it more reapers?"
A horn erupted through the area. Lexa stiffened and grabbed Clarke's hand. A large cloud of orange and yellow was in front of them. "Run!" Lexa ordered and pulled Clarke in a direction.
"The car, we could hide in there." Clarke suggested as she ran and was slightly begin pulled by the brunette who nodded. Lexa found the car and pulled the door open. The fog was behind them. Clarke got inside just before Lexa. She closed the door behind herself. The fog started to enter the car. Causing Clarke and Lexa to cough. "Cover the spaces." Lexa did. They covered the spaces in the door with items of extra clothing. They both sighed in relief. "What was that?"
"Acid fog." Lexa looked up to see the fog surrounding the car. "We are lucky to be alive."
"How long will it last? I need to get back to Jasper." Clarke was urgent and Lexa shrugged. She leaned back against the car. "How can you be so calm? We could die in here."
"Don't be afraid, Clarke. Death is not the end."
Clarke sighed. "Fine. Lexa?" Lexa hummed in response. "Where are the rest of your people?"
"I do not belong to any people. Nor have I in years. I left when I was 17."
Clarke nodded and saw how Lexa was showing slight discomfort talking about her ex-people. "Before you talked about Trigedasleng. What is that?"
"My native language."
"Can you teach me some?" Clarke asked and she saw Lexa smile. Clarke liked seeing Lexa smile.
"Of course. Ai laik Leksa. Yu laik Klark kom Skaikru." Lexa said and pointed to herself when she spoke her name then to Clarke when she spoke of Clarke.
Clarke was in awe of Lexa. She sounded different but better speaking her native tongue. "Did you just say 'I am Lexa. You are Clarke of the sky?"
Lexa chuckled. "Clarke of the sky people. You say to introduce yourself is. Ai laik Klark kom Skaikru." Clarke nodded and repeated.
They spent the night with Lexa teaching Clarke Trigedasleng. The acid fog cleared but by that time Clarke was already asleep and Lexa didn't have the heart to wake her at that time. Lexa was impressed how quickly Clarke caught on with the language. Another thing Lexa found intriguing about the sky girl. Lexa guessed her spirit belonged on the Earth, not in the Sky. However the fog cleared and they were safe to leave the car. Clarke was first to get out and offered a hand to Lexa. Who took it. Clarke helped Lexa out of the car. The air was still stringing slightly but it wasn't that dangerous. "Mochof, Klark."
"Pro (You're welcome)." Clarke responded and Lexa gave Clarke a nod. Clarke was feeling slightly smug with herself. She was getting pretty good at this grounder language. Though she also knew she was no where near to being fluent. But she was doing good for her first lesson.
They walked about to the drop ship. Clarke was worried about Jasper. She had been gone for a long time and he could be dead. She hoped that Octavia, Finn, Monty and Wells could protect him and keep him alive in her absence. She felt guilt for not telling them that she was going but they wouldn't have agreed to go with Lexa. "Why did you agree to teach me Trigedasleng?"
"I have no spoken my birth language in a long time, Clarke, and you seem to want to learn." Lexa told her, she did miss speaking Trigedasleng however she had no one to talk to and the sky people didn't know the first part of the language.
They approached the gates to see Finn and Wells near it. They almost fell over each other to get to her. "Some of your people aren't the smartest, Clarke." Clarke laughed under her breathe. The boys seemed to become hostile when they saw Lexa. She did expect them to though. "The sea weed should be effective as a tea to heal your friend." Lexa advised Clarke who nodded.
Finn and Wells were glaring at Lexa. "Leidon, Leska (Goodbye, Lexa)."
"Leindon, Klark." Lexa said as she went away from the sky people's camp. Clarke watched Lexa leave and knew they would meet again.
