Chapter 30: Yu Gonplei Ste Odon

Sawyer sat hyperventilating in Lexa's tent. She was scrubbing the blood of her hands as she gasped for air. Tears flowing down her cheeks

She looked up at the sound of the tarps being thrown back from the front of the tent. In came her father and Abby. Chris ran up to Sawyer bending down in front of her

"They would've tortured him I had to" Sawyer cried out wheezing for air. Chris nodded as he stroked her hair back caressing the girl's face to calm her down "I-I had to. I had to" Sawyer cried

Chris pulled the girl into his arms "What did I do?" Sawyer said her body shaking in Chris's arms

Gustus, Lexa's guard came into the tent "The commander is ready to talk" he said. Sawyer nodded and sat up wiping her tears. She had to hide her weakness from these people

She closed her mouth and stood up straight. Sawyer watched as Lexa walked in followed by Indra. Chris and Sawyer moved out of the way to stand in front of her throne

"Blood has answered blood. Some of my side say that's not enough they wanted to murderer to suffer as out traditioned demands" 

Sawyer stared blankly and emotionless as Lexa spoke

"But they do not know that your suffering will be worse. What you did tonight will haunt you until the end of your days. Still, there will be restitution, the body will be given to  murderer and murdered joined by fire. Only then can we have peace" Lexa said finishing Sawyer bit her lip and dropped her head. Her eyes were droopy and tired and she wanted nothing more then to just sleep

"No, no, we've done enough the boy should be buried by his own people-" Abby was cut off by a furious Indra who spit out

"Enough? We were owed the pain of 18 deaths, we were owed the righteous kill my village deserves justice" Malice filled her voice

"You don't want justice you want vengeance" Chris argued "You have not seen my vengeance!" Indra yelled as she stepped closer. Sawyer didn't even have the energy to rolled her eyes as stepped in front of her father to protect him from the angry grounder 

"We'll do it. But when it's over we talk about how to get our people out of Mount Weather. All of our people" Sawyer demanded

"We want the same things, Sawyer" Lexa reassured

"Good, when do we leave?" Sawyer asked "Now, choose your attendance" Lexa instructed standing up. Sawyer sighed, she wanted a break

"We leave in 4 hours" Sawyer corrected. "2" Lexa reasoned. Sawyer nodded settling for the middle ground. Lexa and her followers left the tent Sawyer walking out behind only for her father to grab her

"Sawyer, you don't have to do this" he pleaded

"Yes I do, if this truce doesn't hold, I killed Finn for nothing"

That being said Sawyer walked out of the tent, right outside stood Clarke and Raven who grieved over Finn's body making Sawyer gulp as she walked up to them

"Go away" Raven begged anger in her voice "Raven, I'm so sorry" Sawyer cried "I said go away!" Raven yelled jumping up into Sawyer's face

Clarke stayed silent on the ground stroking Finn's hair 

"I know how hard this must be for you but I'm leaving with the Grounders and I need you to work on the radio" Sawyer instructed trying to hold her emotions and composure 

2 grounders came behind and picked up Finn making Raven yell "What are you doing? What are you doing?" Sawyer tried to hold her back but she had no strength in her body
