Clarke paced the hut waiting for Lexa to return from her 8th meeting with her Mirror.

"I'm going to tie her to that bloody post and cut her till she allows me to enter that damn pit!" Clarke vented as she walked back and forth.

Lincoln had joined her for a bit before he had heard enough threats to last a life time and more, only to find Octavia hours later shaking her head.

"Whats the new threat now?" Lincoln asked as Octavia sat down beside him.

"Horse run down polis to the reaper pit" Lincoln laughed as they looked back over to the hut where Lexa stormed in.

"Good luck Sky Princess" Octavia whispered and Lincoln shook his head.

"Good luck Lexa, Clarke will win this round" Bet's were passed as they watched the hut.

*******************Lexa + Clarke**************************

"Don't you dare tell me to back down or you will find yourself posted and cut!" Clarke screamed as Lexa walked into the hut.

"Please listen to me Clarke" Clarke glared at Lexa. "I will allow you to see her and the others, they have been helpful and forth coming with information, your mirror even stated that half of the '100' would rather take shelter with Trikru then be at the hands of 'belomy' they said more will fall from the sky and they will enforce law and lay war to us all unless we 'get ready'" Clarke nodded and took it all in.

"I want to speak to the others before my Mirror" Lexa nodded and pulled Clarke to her chest. "I'm still angry with you" Clarke still melted into the embrace.

"I am sorry but you understand why I could not let you in there till I knew more" Clarke sighed and left the hut, she knew but didn't like it, they were equal.

Clarke made her way down towards the holding cells and waited for Lexa to join her, she knew from many failed attempts that the guards would not let her in without the commanders permission.

"Stand aside" Lexa walked in first quickly followed by Clarke.

"Show me to the others" Lexa pointed towards the right. "I want to be alone with the Sky People" Lexa looked Clarke in the eye for a moment before nodding and leaving.

"I know it's not the perfect living conditions but you have to understand you have caused curiosity and worry within our clans, I only have few questions so please answer them" The three boys looked at the girl in confusion.

"Maddison?" Clarke looked down the hall of cells and heard shuffling.

"My name is Clarke Kom SkaiTrikru address me correctly, I know my Mirror was upon your thing and she is here to...tell me how to make your people see reason" the boys all looked at each other.

"Maddison is the best to talk to, we only chose her to follow because the others were leading us to die, she at least had a plan" one of the boys stepped forwards.

"I promise you the few we name will following Maddison without a hesitation but the rest...they are lost to their new freedom, we just want to survive away for the pending Ark return" Clarke nodded.

"The Commander will return shortly, no harm will come to your body" the boys all sighed and collapsed in a heap together.

Clarke walked towards the cell at the end of the left hand side, taking one last deep breathe to calm her uneasy feeling.

"I am Clarke Kom SkaiTrikru stand" the girl hurried to her feet but didn't lift her gaze. "Do you take responsibility for your men here" The girl nodded her head. "Speak"

"Yes" Clarke nodded and pulled a chair towards the cell and sat down.

"You are my Mirror...I have watched you for many days" at this the girl lifted her head and was shocked to see a girl look exactly like her.

"That's impossible" she moved towards Clarke. "They told me you died" Clarke looked confused.

"Who?" Maddison still stared at Clarke.

"Mum and Dad...they said you died while playing with Bell's sister...said I must have blocked the memory out" Clarke huffed and played with her dagger.

"Well as you can see those people were wrong, Octavia and myself are rather healthy and fine, tell me about the Ark Return?" Maddison still looked dazed but shook herself out of it.

"The Ark is what us and our people lived on in space, it will return to earth as the air levels will run out soon, they sent us down to see if earth was livable, now that they know they will arrive and take over...our leaders are corrupt and we do not wish to follow them...they will kill us once we show any signs of struggle, and the rest will be put back in prison for their crimes on the Ark" Clarke nodded.

"I will return at light, rest knowing you will not die at our hands" with this Clarke turned to leave.

"Can I have just a moment longer" Clarke looked back confused. "Do you remember anything from the Ark?" Clarke walked back towards Maddison.

"I remember my last night, I remember laughing with you as we ran from a boy, I remember a lady crying and a man kissing my head, then I remember awaking with Nyko, I do not remember anything else" with that Clarke left and walked past Lexa and into the forest.

************************Maddison + Boys********************************

"She looks exactly like you Maddi" one of the boys shouted.

"I know Jasper...she's my twin sister" Maddison sank back to the floor and ignored the rest of the comments from the concerned boys.

*********************Clarke + Lexa**********************************************

"They told her I died, suggested it was my fault Octavia had died on the ark!" Lexa pulled Clarke to her chest and held her tight. "They lied!"

"You are with us, you are our family Clarke, not theirs" Clarke nodded and let Lexa sooth her with word of love and assurance.

"What will we do?" Lexa laughed and sat back as Clarke leaned into her side.

"I will accompany them to their 'dropship' and let them collect what they need and to bring forth the willing, they will be sent to Gradhu under the eyes of Indra, I need you and your group to scout and finish drawing the rest of faces I will only let a few accompany them with us" Clarke sighed and nodded.

"I have chosen my Second" Lexa looked down to Clarke and they both sat up.

"I was going to talk about that with you upon your return, I can only ignore the rules for so long on this Clarke, you were meant to pick days ago" Clarke nodded she knew she was in the wrong but with the hype about sky people she was able to get away with a bit.

"I have chosen Aja she will begin tomorrow" Lexa nodded and pulled Clarke to her feet.

"She will learn much under your guidance"

Clarke and Lexa moved back towards the cells to talk further with the sky people.

They had moved them all into the one cell and thats when Clarke noticed.

"Octavia told me their was another girl, where is she?" The sky people looked between themselves and back to Lexa and Clarke.

"Sky People said to leave her at dropship and they would come with no struggle, she's held in the north cell" Clarke nodded and looked back to the Sky People.

"You will remain in Polis under watch, after moon feast we will begin your trip back to 'dropship' for supplies and then taken to one of our smaller villages where you will learn Trikru way, I will only allow few to join you and you will agree to take full responsibility of them" Lexa looked at them all and waited for an answer.

"Why can't we go now?" one of the boys asked quietly and Maddison glared at him.

"My scout will be watching your 'dropship' and reporting back to me about some of your people, if you chose to bring someone who my scout think are trouble I will not allow them" Maddison looked at her for a moment.

"How will you know what they look like?" Lexa looked at Clarke for a moment who shook her head.

"My scout will accompany us" with that the four agreed to the terms and Lexa and Clarke called in a few guards.

"You will not be out of sight of my men" Lexa left the cell and was followed by the Sky People and their Guards all but Maddison who looked at Clarke.

"Can we talk?" Maddison asked hesitantly.

"We will walk through Polis" Lexa waited for Clarke who kissed her cheek and walked away with Maddison and two guards.

"Are you guys dating?" Clarke raised an eyebrow in confusion. "You and the brown haired girl?"

"She is my wife and the Commander of the 12 clans, you will refer to her as the Commander out of respect" Maddison nodded quickly.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to be rude" Maddison looked around at the buildings and people.

"Tell me more of sky people" Clarke asked to fill the silence.

"Their are only 900 or so on the Ark, we have a group of leaders and they govern our laws and make sure we all stick to it or we get floated" The wandered towards a few markets where children ran towards Clarke.

"Children return to your classes and I will see you all tonight before sleep" The children all ran away yelling and screaming in excitement.

"They love you" Clarke smiled and nodded her head.

"The young are our future, we teach and respect them to carry our world to better things" Maddison smiled at that and watched as the last few children ran inside a hut.

"Did you think about us often?" Clarke steered them towards the fire pit.

"When stars fall I think of what could have been, but my home is Trikru it is all I have known, all I have needed, the sky is all but a dream, did you think of me often?" Maddison sighed and stared up at the sky, the sun had began setting and was not long from being pitch black.

"Dad used to tell me stories, mum would push the subject aside I never really understood but now it makes sense, I used to look into the mirror and think about you, would we be the same...would we talk, walk think the same" Clarke nodded and looked up at the sky. "When dad died I wasn't allowed to talk to anyone about you, but Bellamy and I would sneak to the library and talk about it, he remembers the night you were both taken away with dad and his mum, but now all Bell and I do is fight" Clarke looked at Maddison.

"I do not like that boy...Belomy, he will not be welcomed" Maddison understood where Clarke was coming from and didn't push the matter.

"You are the scout accompany us" Maddison picked at her pants waiting for a response.

"No, I will be in the village upon your return, I will be training you all"

"But won't you need to point out people to The Commander" Clarke laughed loudly.

"She already knows who will be welcomed, our scout is to confirm those people, I must return to my wife before my leave, you will be present for your first Trikru custom tonight" Clarke stood and walked away followed closely by a guard who laughed with her.

***********************************Clarke + Lexa*********************************

"Tonight I will take Aja as my second" Lexa nodded and looked up from her map. "She will accompany me to Gradhu with Sky People"

"I was sending Indra with them Clarke not you" Clarke walked across the hut while removing her coat and throwing it onto a chair near by.

"I need to learn more about my birth home Lexa, I need to learn more about my Mirror, I will stay and train till after winter and then I will return, I will not fight you about this" Lexa stabbed her dagger into the table and leaned on the table.

"Why must you be so difficult, I will not have my wife away from my side before the meeting of clans!" Clarke stood and walked back over to the table.

"I will return for the meeting days before to prepare for their arrival and then I will go back to Gradhu, but I am going with Skiakru and I am going to make sure they do not start a war" Lexa refused to look up at Clarke as she thought about any way she could win this fight.

"I will join you, and that you will not fight me on" Clarke laughed and walked around the table to kiss Lexa.

"We must inform Aja of her new position and let the other generals know, plus I want a feast" Lexa laughed loudly and called for her guards to get everthing ready.
