chapter twenty-five, The Primes

--

"What's wrong? Why aren't they moving?" Jordan asks as him, Raven, Octavia, Abby and a women who boarded their ship rushes towards the 4 unconscious people on the ground, Clarke, Nova, Bellamy and Murphy. "Clarke-- they're alive. Honey, wake up" Abby says as she feels their pulse and looks down at her daughter.

"Nova, Nova" Octavia calls out as she puts her sword away and bent down to Nova who slowly started to wake up. "Octavia?" Nova mumbles as she looks up and sees Octavia looking down at her. Nova looks around and sees Clarke next to her mother, "Clarke" Nova calls out and grabs ahold of Clarke's hand and Clarke tightens the grip and looks at Nova with a relieved smile.

"Where are the others?" Jordan asks and Clarke breathes heavily and looks over at Jordan. "Locked up to protect us" Clarke answers and Raven steps forward and looks to Clarke. "What happened to Shaw?" Raven asks but Clarke doesn't tell her she just simply looks away from her. Nova sits up and holds her head which is aching but it fades away quickly. "Abby? What the hell is she doing here...and who is that?" Bellamy asks as he looks over to see his sister who is excited to see him but he doesn't feel the same way.

"John, wake up. Come on now. His pulse is too weak" Abby says as she walks over and checks on John. Nova notices something on Murphy's neck and slides over to him and pulls his shirt down. "Um- What the hell is this?" Nova asks looking to Abby who looks just as confused as Nova. Abby shakes her head and shrugs lol at the black veins forming on Murphy's chest. "I don't know" Abby answers honestly. In the distance children are heard shouting and the sound gets closer and closer. Nova furrows her eyebrows and looks around and sees a crowd of children rush up the stairs laughing and smiling.

They come across Nova's group and stop before they get any closer. "It's okay, Rose. Don't be afraid" The women says to the children as they look down at her handcuffs. Rose turns her head towards the invaders and takes a step closer to them. "Are you here to take us home?" The little girl asks and everyone looks around at each other confused. "Isn't this your home?" Clarke asks but doesn't get a response except the children begin to walk closer and Nova takes a step back not knowing what to do until a group of adults walks up the stairs. Some look like guards and some look like people of the community. The way they are dressed shocks Nova. They look elegant and expensive wearing amazing jewelry, scarves and clean clothes.

"What do we do?" Nova asks and Bellamy looks to his people. "Remember, we're in their home. Everyone keep calm and weapons down" Bellamy orders and Nova doesn't bother to lift her sword up off the guard while she looks at the crowd of people walking into their land. "Abby, stay with Murphy" Bellamy states and Abby continues to stay by Murphy side while Nova hears whispers come from the other crowd.
