Chapter Text
"Clarke, sweetie? are you there?" you hear your mom call out as you're drawing with your best friend Raven in the common room.
"Hey mom!" "Sup mama G!" both you and Raven call out. Your mom looks distressed or upset you can't tell, you hope everything it alright.
"Mom? are you alright?"
"Yea mama G, you look upset? whats wrong?" Raven voices her concern as well.
"Raven sweetie, give me and Clarke a moment please."
"Sure Abby, cya Clarke! come find me later before we gotta stay in our rooms."
"I'd do anything for you Raven" you tease.
"Of course you would, I'm awesome" she says back with a smile.
You and your mom walk back to your room in silence.
"Whats up mom?" you decide to find out whats wrong.
"Listen, Clarke there are going to be some changes. Your father said something bad about the ark and is in trouble.
"You mean about the a-" you're cut off by your mom shushing you.
"Clarke! what did I say about talking about that!" she scolds you. I don't get the big deal, the people should know.
"Alright, alright mom chill. whats wrong with dad?" you're kinda worried, you love your father you don't want anything to happen to him.
"Well, Clarke your father threatened to tell everyone his little secret" she whispers. "So- so they're going to float him" she chokes out.
You feel like you were punched in the stomach. You cannot speak you're in such shock. You love your father, hes your best friend - besides Raven of course - you cant imagine losing him, at least not so soon. You stare at your mom mouth wide and tears threatening to pour out. "
"Clarke, Clarke sweet-" shes cut off by me yelling at her.
"How! Why! Why would he tell them! Why wouldn't he just tell everyone before talking to Jaha!" you're crying now.
"Clarke- Clarke I told Jaha. I had to. and Clarke sweetie this isn't all I have to say." everything you were feeling, everything you were doing was brought to a halt at your mothers words. You couldn't believe your mother would do such a thing.
without any feelings towards your mother you say "well, what is it then?" you see her taken back at the lack of emotion in your voice at this point.
"Jaha wants to send you down to the ground, as a test subject, since you know about the secret as well. You will have a walkie talkie and some supplies. I thought it was a good idea since your father trained you in fighting for a while and I taught you some medical things, plus better you than anyone els-"
"HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO YOUR OWN DAUGHTER! ARE YOU INSANE?" you can never forgive her.
"Clarke- Clarke I'm - I'm sorry. You'll have time to say goodbye to Raven, But you leave tomorrow."
"I don't even wanna look out you I'm so disgusted. I'm 12 years old! 12 years old mom! How will i survive down there? Alone!"
"Clar-"
"No, stop. there's absolutely nothing you can say or do to help yourself. I'm going to find Raven." You walk out and slam the door. You lean against it for a bit trying to contain your emotions. All thats on your mind right now is finding Raven, you just need to see her, she always makes you feel better.
You find Raven outside her room waiting for you.
"Hey Clarkey! I've been- oof" you engulf her in a big up, knowing you probably wont be able to do that again.
"Clarke? What's wrong? You hear the sincere concern in Ravens voice and you realize how much you love this girl.
"I'm gonna miss you so so much Rae, and I love you so so much too please don't ever forget that- Oh! here I want you to have this." you hand her your favorite bracelet that has a raven and a lion on it.
Raven looks confused and dumbfounded at everything occurring. You feel so bad for her. She has no one, her mom doesn't care for her, shes always had you and you always had her. Now neither of you have each other.
"Clarke, what are you talking about? I'm not going any where. Why are you giving me this? I have it to you for your birthday, keep it" She tried to give it back but you deny, you want her to have something of you.
"Rae, you aren't going anywhere I am"
"Where could you possibly be going? We living in a metal box in space. There's no where to go" She states, thoroughly confused.
"I'm going to earth. My mom and Jaha are sending me down at some "test subject" I'm getting a walkie talkie so I can talk to you and them so don't worry about my sanity, and I'll have weapons and supplies. I want you to take care of yourself, alright Rae?" You're trying to stay strong for her.
"No. No no no. You're not going anywhere." She grabs you and holds tight "You're all I have" you here her sob.
"I know Rae, I know. You'll forever be my best friend. Don't forget that." you're both standing there crying into each other You stay with her for the night, knowing you'll never see each other again.
Its time. You're standing there watching them pack up the ship for you. They said they can't give you too much because they need it and what I'm guessing, they don't expect me to survive so they don't want to waste it
"Clarke its time. Come on." You hear you mother say. her voice is repulsive to you now.
"No! Raven is coming! She'll be here! We need to wait!" You have to see her again. She's your best friend.
"Clarke" you hear your dad coax. They are going to float him after you leave so you don't need to watch.
You latch on to him "I'm going to miss you so much dad" you sob and feel him put something in your hand. His watch.
"Da-" You start sobbing
"Alright Clarke we need to go." You hear another repulsive voice. Jaha.
"Im sorry Raven." You murmur Just as you're about to enter the ship you hear your name being screamed
"Clarke! Clarke wait! Don't leave yet I'm coming!" You jump up immediately and go to find your best friend. Once you see her you ram into her hugging her. You're both sobbing.
"Don't forget me" you hear her whisper. How could you ever? She's basically your sister.
"Never could, never will. You're Raven freaking Reyes!" you try and lighten the mood.
"Hell yeah, and I'm awesome." she pauses "and so are you Clarke. Don't forget that."
She also places something in your hand. Her raven necklace you gave her.
"Raven I cant."
"You can and you will. You gave me something to remember you and I will too. Now go kick ass down there. You better radio up if you can I wanna hear your voice immediately" You hug her so tight it could kill her. You plant a wet kiss to her cheek.
"Im gonna miss ya Raven, and hey, Don't forget me either." you wipe your cheeks and hers of tears.
"I could never imagine. and I'm gonna miss you too."
"Alright Clarke its time to go now" Your mom says while grabbing your shoulders. You whip out of her grip.
"Dont touch me" you spit out.
Guards put this bracelet on you. They said its to know if you're alive or whatever.
"Stay safe Clarkey! I'll never forget you!" You hear Raven scream.
"I love ya kid" You hear your dad for the last time ever.
"I know you hate me Clarke but I do love you and I'll miss you everyday. Make sure to radio up, okay?" she tries to hug you, and you let her, I mean she is still your mother and you'll never see her again
"I'll never forgive you, but I still, for some strange reason, love you mom. And I will."
"May we meet again, Clarke" you hear her whisper
"I sure hope not" You whisper, hopefully low enough for her not to hear.
And like that you're soaring through space lightning speed. You think its really pretty and hope you can draw it down there. You soon reach the ground but you're knocked up from the crash landing. The last thing you remember seeing is trees, and two female figures. One older than the other. Hopefully they're nice you think to yourself.
