The Return

Part 4.5 | Bardo Time Everybody! Part 1

Hey everyone, I just wanted to let you know before you start reading that 1: this will be a longer chapter then I normally write
And 2: Thank you for putting up with how long I take to write a chapter.
So with out further ado... enjoy!
Oh also! I'm probably only going to do 2-3 more chapters on this storyline. But I'm thinking about continuing on this timeline and just adding more chapters, characters and enemies along the way. So if that's something you would like to see... please comment and let me know! Also so sorry for how long this took to get out. It normally takes me about a week to put out a new chapter, but this one took a lot longer due to the holidays! So I just wanted to say before we start, Happy Hanukkah, Merry Christmas, and Happy Kwanzaa!

Octavia POV

Location: The Bunker

Everyone was helping Clarke devise a plan to get to Madi... they had only been working a few minutes and already the groups spirits had started to deteriorate as they noticed the extremely limited amount of possibilities there were to get to bardo.

"What if we just fix the helmet?" Octavia asked.

"Who knows how long that will take? I don't even know if I can do it." Raven said.

"You can do it. You have to." Murphy said.

Indra looked over at Clarke, with an unusual look of sadness plastered upon her face. She wasn't used to seeing Indra look so sad, she wondered if she related to Clarke since she had felt the pain before of not knowing if your daughter was alive or not. She saw Indra start to compose herself once more. Indra must have seen her staring because she gave a little bit of a glare, which honestly made her a little scared.

"All we need the mask for is to see where the stone is... once we see where it is we can mark it and come up with a plan." Murphy said.

"How would we even get it out?" Indra asked with a confused tone of voice.

Everyone shared a look not knowing what to do. They were about to scratch their plan when they heard someone speak up.

"We go old school." Clarke said.

Everyone turned to her with a look mixed between compassion and confusion. She was glad Clarke was still able to put up a fight to save Madi. She honestly didn't know if Clarke had even heard any part of their plan, since she seemed to be so lost in her own mind. Everyone waited a moment wanting to see who would speak up next.

"What do you mean... old school" Murphy said signing quotation marks with his hands.

She saw Clarke turn towards Raven with a smile. It took Raven a minute to figure out what Clarke meant but once she did... she nearly started jumping up and down out of sheer excitement.

"Wait a minute... are you saying what I think you're saying? Please tell me you are! Please please please?!?!?" Raven said with the biggest look of anticipation.

Clarke simply nodded with a bit of a grin.

"Oh my goodness! YESSS!" Raven threw her hands up high in the air while everyone else just looked at her extremely confused.

"Hey princess... mind sharing with the rest of the class." Murphy asked.

"You know I hate it when you call me that." Clarke said with a slight glare.

"Uhhh yeah. Why do you think I do it?" Murphy said with a grin.

Octavia noticed Clarke starting to ball up her fists and knew she was going to lunge at Murphy. She wasn't mad at him... ok maybe she was a little, she just was already freaking out over everything with Madi and when you add Murphy's jack*ss comments along with it... well she's going to overflow.
