Kapitel 9: Unity Day

We walked through the woods in the night. "I'd love it if you were right about this but did you ever consider it might be a trap?" I asked Finn. "Yep, but since it's Unity day I decided to have hope instead" Finn answered me. "Oh great, I'm going to get speared because you suddenly have hope? Or let me remind you of when one of them poisoned the both of us!" I hissed at him. "Seriously, You're putting a lot of faith in a guy who stuck a knife in you" I added. "Now you're sounding more and more like Bellamy" Finn sighed. "I'm just trying to keep us alive!" I hissed at him. He nodded "So am I," He says. I groaned a little as Clarke dropped some acorns on the ground. It wasn't until daylight when we reached the bridge. I scoffed "So that's how you set this up?" I asked. "You helped him escape, didn't you?" I hissed at Octavia. "I trust him Arabella" Octavia stated. "There's a lot of that going around isn't there?" I pointed out, glaring at her. "Someone's coming," Clarke says. I get nervous when I see the man who tried to kill me, the one who poisoned me. I glanced over to see Bellamy, Jasper, and Raven in the trees, causing me to nudge Clarke. Octavia runs to him, pulling him into a hug. I wanted to puke right there. He lifted his head and all I could do was glare at him. I begin to back away with Clarke when Finn grabbed her hand, causing us both to move forward. I hear the hooved sounds as I see the beautiful horses. "Oh my god, horses" I smiled. "Hey! We said no weapons!" Finn shouted at the woman. I see the bows "I was told there wouldn't be" Lincoln says. "It's too late now" Clarke pointed out. The three of us goes to take a step when Lincoln stopped Finn. "They go alone" He stated. "We'll be fine," Clarke says. "Clarke--" She cut him off. "Hey. It's time to do better" She smiled at him. We both approached the woman as she gets off the horse."Your names are Clarke and Shadow?" The woman asked. "Yes," We both say at the same time. "I'm Anya" She introduced herself. Clarke nodded, extending her hand but the woman just glare at us both. "I think we got off to a rough start" Clarke pointed out. "But we want to find a way to live together in peace," Clarke says. "I understand. You started a war that you don't know how to end" She smirked. I knit my brows together "What? No. We didn't start anything. You attacked us for no reason" I pointed out. "No reason?" She asked, tilting her head to the side. "The missiles you launched burned a village to the ground" She stated. "The flares?"Clarke asked her. "No. That was a signal meant for our families" Clarke explained to her. "We had no idea--"I cut Clarke off. "You attack us first, the spear through our friend's chest? Or do you not remember stringing him up for live bait?" I hissed out. "You're invaders" She hissed at me. "Your ship landed in our territory" she informed us. "We didn't know anyone was here" I explained. "We thought the ground was uninhabited" I added. "You knew we were here when you sent an armed raiding party to capture one of us and torture him" She hissed. "After he stabbed and poisoned two people!" I shouted at her. I wasn't scared of this bitch and I would never be. "Yeah...How's the arm?" She smirked. I wanted to punch her in the face, I wanted to take a gun and shove it in her mouth and pull the trigger. "These are all acts of war," She says. Clarke nodded "I see your point. That's why we need to put an end to all of this" Clarke suggested. "Lincoln said there are more of you coming down, warriors," Anya says. "The guard, yes but also farmers, doctors, engineers" Clarke explained. "We can help each other but not if we're at war" She pointed out. "Can you promise that these new arrivals won't attack us?" She asked Clarke and me. I wanted to attack her. "That they'll respect the terms your two and I agree on?" She asked. "We promise we'll do everything we can to convince them to honor the terms we set" Clarke answered. "Why would I agree to an alliance that your people can break the moment they get here?" She pointed out. "If you fired the first shot, those people coming down won't bother negotiating" Clarke stated. "Our technology...They'll wipe you out" I chimed in with a smirk. "They wouldn't be the first to try" She smirked back. "Clarke! Shadow! Run!" Jasper screamed at the top of his lungs. Suddenly he fired the gun. I whipped around as I heard another gunshot. Bellamy had shot Anya before she had killed me. "Get down!" Finn shouted, pushing Clarke and me to the ground. Arrows begin to fly as we hurried up off the ground and ran towards Bellamy and the rest of the group.
