one. ❛ may we meet again ❜
❪ 001 | our return will be epic ❫
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SITTING ON THE SIDE of my bed playing with my switch blade in my solidary cell, was the sour reality of my life.
Just a couple months ago I was running around The Ark with my friends, but now that seems like a world away. Now I'm in a cell all alone, about to be floated in a couple weeks. All for a secret that isn't even relevant.
However The Ark thinks otherwise. They will take this secret to there grave, and take everyone down with it.
The doors of my cell open, and two guards steped in, "Prisoner 432, please, stand up, and face the wall with your right wrist out." I look up to them in confusion, and quickly stand up.
While turning around I say, "What? No, I still have three weeks left." while shaking my head in denial.
"Hold out your right wrist." he says sternly.
While still standing there he takes my wrist and quickly puts on a wristband before draging me out of the cell. That's when I see it. All the delinquents where pulled out of there cells with matching wristbands on.
What was this? Mass murder? I thought to myself.
Walking futher down the hall the guard keeps holding my arm as we walk, "Luna?" a voice calls out.
Causing to freeze when I first hear his voice. In a swift movement I turn around and envolope my dad in a hug, "Dad. What's happening?" I asked before a guard interrupted our short reunion.
"Counselor Kane, we don't have much time. We have to bring her to the dropship." the guard that was holding me says. Making my dad nod, and puts his hands on my shoulders.
"Luna, listen very carefully. Your going to the ground. I want you to be very careful, make alliances, not enemies. That's what is going to keep you save." He says while my eyes almost pop out of there sockets.
"Just remember, I love you, and I'm doing this so that you have a change. Don't forget, you can maybe find her, but survival is the most important. Futher instrustion will be given in the dropship." he tells me.
Nodding he hugs me tightly. While doing so he puts my- well my mothers notebook in my pocket. He knows how much it ment to me, but in solidarity it was taken away.
"Please be save Luna." he wispers in my hair. Causing me to squeeze him tightly in the hug, "I will, dad. Remember I love you, and please don't forget me."
"I never could, honey." he says while stroking my hair. We pull apart and a guard takes my arm and we move to the dropship.
While we are walking to the dropship I hear sounds of comotion. Turning around to the sound and who's making them I'm met with a familiar face, "Raven!" I exclaim while trying to get out of the guards grip, but he won't budge.
"LUNA!" she screams back. When I finally get of his grip I run to her. When I finally get to her I get bashed on the side of my head by something and soon the darkness envelopes everything.
"Prisoners of The Ark, hear me now. You've been given a second chance," I hear while waking up with a groan.
"and as your Chancellor, it is my hope that you see this as not just a chance for you, but a chance for all of us. Indeed for mankind itself. We have no idea what is waiting for you down there." the voice continues.
When my eyes flutter open, that's when I realize that we are on a actual dropship. Just like my dad said.
"If the odds of survival were better, we would've sent others. Frankly, we're sending you because your crimes have made you expendable."
"Your dad is a dick, Wells." a random guy exclaims. Wells? Wells Jaha was arrested? I thought to myself.
"Those crimes will be forgiven, your records wiped clean." chanslor Jaha continues.
"Hey sleepy head." a calming voice says next to me when I groan yet again.
Looking to my left I see a girl around my age with long brown hair. Smiling at her, "Hey," I say but my voice is stil hoars from sleep.
Making her laugh while I blush in embarrassment. Clearing my trought I try it again, "Hey." I say. She smiles at my flusterd state, "My name is Luna, what about you?" I ask her.
For a second she looks shocked, "You don't know who I am?" she asks flabbergasted.
Shaking my head I look apologetic, "I'm afraid not. Perks of being in solitary. Sorry." I tell her sadly.
Her smile some how got brighter, "No, no. It's amazing actually. My name is Octavia, but my friends call me O'." she tells me.
Nodding I look at the ship before alverting my eye gaze back at her, "Well, it's nice to meet you. Am I allowed to call you O' even tough we just met?" I ask with a hopeful smile.
She makes a thinking face before looking me over with a playful glare, "I think you have earned it." she says.
What causes me to laugh. For the first time in a long time. We listen to Jaha together untill the screen shuts down and the ships starts rambling
Being scared I hold on to O's hand tightly. While squeezing my eyes shut. When it's start to ramble more heavily I start to scream.
It's a loud and earpiece scream, but O' stays calm and squeezes my hand in reassurance. As soon as she does my screaming substains.
We shook some more and whimpers left my lips. When we land there is a loud thund and the machine hum stops.
"Hear that? No machine hum." a male voice says.
Making me scuff, "That's a first." I say in unison with someone else. Looking at the guy he has goggle on top of his head. Smiling at him he starts blushing.
My hands are still shaking so taking my belt off is nearly impossible. Octavia has her seatbelt of in a swift motion and stands on her feet.
When she sees my hand shake she helps me by opening my seatbelts for me before pulling me in hug.
"It's okay, Luna. Everything is going to be fine." she tell me while squeezing me for reassurance.
Sighing I pull away, "Thank you. I just panicked." I confess.
"It's okay, I used to have them too." she reassured me.
Our friendship moment is ruined by people running down and pushing eachother. Letting go of her I look around.
"Don't open the doors. The air could be toxic." a familiar voice says while making her way to the ladder.
"Clarke?" I ask. Making her head snap to my direction as she looks around she finially sees me, "Luna?" she asks confused.
"Yeah." I breath out. She hugs me and looks me over for injuries, "How?" she asks confused.
"Not now. We need to get downstairs." I say she nods and wants to take my hand, but I take O' her hand instead. She looks weirdly at us but shruggs it off as soon as it came.
Walking down O' moves forward when she sees someone. She stands still before hugging someone I can't see, "Bell." she wispers.
"O'" he wispers back with closed eyes. He looks familiar, but I can place from where. When he opens his eyes abd they lock with mine the memory hits me like a truck.
"So, what did you do to get locked up." he asks breaking the silence.
We keep walking and I say nothing, "I asked you something." he says awkwardly.
"I know, I'm not deaf." I say in a chalky voice not taking my eyes of the hallway. "Okay." he trails off.
Sighing I stop turning to him. Seeing him, really seeing him for the first time. Seeing his freckles and slickback hair. The name on his guard uniform, and the fact that he is a cadet and not a real guard. That makes me smirk, he can't make me do anything.
"Look cadet. The guards know what I did. It has nothing to do with you, and it wasn't something bad. It's the ark. They would kill everyone to keep their secrets. I'm just clatteral damage, I'm expendable." I tell him.
He looks kind of sad, but that is soon turned in to confusion, "Isn't your dad Kane?" he asks.
"Yes, but even he can't change it. My mother made a mistake. Now I need to pay for it." I tell him.
"You're a second child." the second it left his lips I put my hand on his mouth and back him against the wall.
His hand fly to my hips. He soon heard footsteps that I already noticed. They soon substain that's when I take my hand of his mouth. Still standing a little too close to him.
"How did you hear that?" he wispers, "If you use the airfents you learn to listen to the things people don't hear." I wisper back.
"Just don't tell. My sister is not here." I tell him. Making him confused, "Where is she." he asks.
"I can't tell you." I say looking away. He nods, "I also have a sister. She is here, that's why I became a guard." he tells me, my head snaps to him.
"I won't tell anyone. Even tough I can't." I tell him.
"Right, cell." he says blushing.
"Yeah." I trail off, backing up making his hands fall from my hips, "Thanks, Luna." he says making me give him a look of confused.
"What did you just call me?" I ask him. He looks confused, "Your name is Luna right?" he asks. He looks nervous.
"Yeah, but that's my nickname Novah is my real name. Only my friend and family ever call me that." I tell him.
"Ohw, I'm sorry Novah." he says awkwardly rubbing the back of his head, "It's okay. You can call me Luna." I tell him with a smile.
Untill I realized what I said, "Only if you want to. You could totally call me Novah. If you find that better." I ramble off.
Making him chuckle. Did I mention that his laugh is amazing, "If it's cool with you I would love to call you Luna." he says cooly.
Nodding I say, "Yeah," before I turn around and start walking to the sky boxes. When he doesn't follow I turn back around.
"Blake, are you following me or are you just going to stand there and stare?" I asks him in a teasing voice.
He coughs and follows me, "Bellamy." he says making me look at him confused, "It's my name, Bellamy Blake." he explains.
"it suits you." I say with a smile.
We soon make it to my box, "Once a month you have visitors it's on the second thursday of the month." he informs me and I nod.
"Is it okay. If I visit?" he asks nervously. Making me smile, "I would love to." I tell him.
"Okay, see you next week then?" he asks. Nodding I step in before turning around, "Bye, freckles." I say. He swipes his card at the door looking at me sadly.
"Bye, Green eyes." he says before the doors closed.
He never came. It's now a year later were both on earth. My bet is that he doesn't even remember me, but that doesn't really matter. He looks away when people start wispering.
"That's Octavia Blake the girl they hit under the floor." a voice exclaims making me snap out of my toughts. Looking at the guy I clear my trought, "Hey you! Shut the fuck up." I exclaim at him.
He just looks amused, "Hey little miss innocent." he says teasingly with a wink.
Making me roll my eyes, "Don't call her that. Got it?" I ask him.
"Let's make them remember you by something else." Bellamy says opening the dropship. When it opens O' looks at sancinary. I'm just behind her.
She looks over her shoulder and I give her a reassuring smile. Walking down slowly she breaths in the fresh air.
Before jumping and throwing her hand up in the air, "We're back, bitches!" she exclaims.
