“can you just… i don’t know, tell me what you do know?”

“This is another.. world of some kind, for some reason we have been pulled here - I am not sure yet why or even how. But... so far we seem to be safe here, not everyone is aware though - some people do know this isn’t where we belong. Others... they believe this is how things should be. It is rather odd actually.”

Madi had asked Clarke, when she was younger, what had happened to the other Nightbloods, why they were the only ones left. Clarke had told her what happened, how the Nightblood from Azgeda, Ontari, had killed them all in their sleep, Aden included. She didn’t understand how someone could do something so ruthless, how she didn’t have the honor to fight them all, face to face in the conclave, like it was supposed to be. Clarke told her many stories, about Lexa, about all of her friends. And what she didn’t tell, Madi got to see through Lexa’s memories. “I have only gotten here now, I don’t know how it is possible, for me to be here.” 

It wasn’t just the fact that the last thing she remembers was her being younger than what she looks now, she also remembers very well being put to sleep by Clarke, on that machine. They were supposed to wake up again on that ship, instead, Madi wakes up on a beach, alone. “I do.” She paused, titling her head to the side. “It’s funny, you have the same posture that she did.” She was referring to Lexa, of course. “I’ve seen you, on Lexa’s memories. I was given the flame by the fleimkepa Gaia. I was the only Natblida left.” She said with a frown, looking down at the ground. Her people were counting on her to lead them, how could she do that from here?

Madi nodded her head. “It happened again. Clarke explained it to me, the nuclear stations all blew up, the whole world was destroyed once again. The Shallow Valley was the only piece of green land that remained. Me and Clarke, we lived there for a few years, while we waited for the others. Some found refuge on a bunker, others went back to the sky, Bellamy and some other members of Skaikru.” She sighed and shook her head. “No … I don’t know any others, Clarke told me I was the only one left, after what Ontari did to you and the other Nightbloods.” 

Aden shook his head, he listened when she spoke but he was also trying to work things out as well, “I have been here for longer.” He simply stated, truth be told - he had lost count on how long - it had been at least a few months though if he were to try and work it out, “I still do not know how I ended up here, I just...woke up here.” His hand rubbed his neck, the scar there standing out as he swallowed. He didn’t recall how he got it, just that it was there now.

His eyes stared at her when she spoke again, a small frown forming as his shoulders tensed, “You...” he started before shaking his head, his eyes watering but he would not cry. He did remember Lexa.. he remembered her spirit had left her body, passing on - he remembered saying his goodbyes after the other Natblida had gone to bed for the night. It was one of the last things he remembered before he had woken up here. “Leksa’s spirit passed on to you.” He stated, putting the pieces together - he didn’t look her in the eye though, a sadness on his face that he struggled to hide.

Still, her story was... interesting, although he struggled to understand it fully. Without proof it was just her word, but the way she spoke of Clarke - it made him feel a little better. He could tell she cared about the Sky girl he had sworn to look out for. But then - that name. “Ontari.” The name left his mouth, seeming a little shaky as his gaze freezes, his body now firmly tense, “She.. She did something. I.. I can’t remember what - but.. she was there - before I came here. I..there is something - she - she did something to them.” His voice wavered, for the first time since he was a small child - he was shaken and there was a feeling he couldn’t shake - he wasn’t remembering something.

The person she had first asked just shook his head and continue on his way but hope filled her when a young boy, probably her age came to her. He seemed to know Clarke and if he was here, that meant that others from her world could be as well. Not only Clarke, but also Bellamy, Raven, Octavia, all of them. At this point, Madi wanted nothing more than to make sure they were all safe, whether it was here or back home. 

She had thought that this could be some sort of weird dream, from being in that deep sleep. Who knows what that kind of technology can do to your head, but everything seemed to be way too real to be a dream. Plus, she would’ve dreamed of Clarke, her mother would always be present. “Sha, I am looking for Clarke, you know her?” She asked as she turned around to face the boy. 

He was familiar, he had seen him when she got to access Lexa’s memories. It was Aden, one of the Nightbloods who was trained by her and most likely to succeed her as the Commander. Clarke didn’t say much about them, but she knew from the memories that they were loved by Lexa and he was trustworthy. “Aden, is it?” She asked, titling her head to the side. “My name is Madi kom Louwoda Klironkru. I survived Praimfaya because I’m a Nightblood and Clarke found me, adopted me, she’s my mother.”

Aden as curious as he was - was also wary, his hands together behind his back, his shoulders straight as he watched her lightly. He had no idea who this girl was - or how she knew Clarke, but the fact that she also spoke Trigedasleng was... boy it was comforting to hear it spoken by someone other than himself. “I do know Klark Kom Skaikru.” He spoke carefully, a hint of a smile crossing his face at the memory of the blonde woman, she was always kind to him - she was strong, brave - but most importantly, Leksa had been fond of her. Instantly making Aden protective of the blonde sky girl - even if she could handle things herself. He had sworn to Leksa that if something happened he’d make sure Klark would be alright - and her people of course.

Not knowing where Clarke was here ... it was a worry as well, despite him wanting to find the other Natblidas - he was also looking for Clarke as well.  “I have not yet found her in this strange.. world.” He spoke with a look of puzzlement, glancing around them before his gaze locked back on the girl. “You know my name? I have not yet met you before Madi kom Louwoda Klironkru...” He questioned quickly, his tone shifting as he shook his head. What she said - it didn’t make sense to him, he had no recollection of what she spoke of.

“Praimfaya... That happened many years ago, yet you speak of it being recent - if Klark found you and claimed you as her goufa - then....she’s your nomon.” He frowned, the words tumbling in his head, he was trying to work this puzzle out - yet this made no sense to him. “You are Natblida though.” The mention of that, made his face light up for a moment before quickly masking it as his body straightened up once more-  his shoulders tensing, “Do you know the other Natblidas? I Have been searching for them here as well as Klark - I swore to Leksa to look out for them. This world is strange though and much is different.”

Madi closed her eyes for a moment as she tried to focus. The Commanders have helped her so far, told her what the best thing to do was, even if she didn’t agree with them sometimes, she took their advice. But now, not even them could help her now. Madi had no idea where she was and how she ended up here, her mind focused on Clarke, finding her mom was her priority. She had no idea where to start though, so she just wandered the streets, hoping to come across someone familiar. “Fiya.” She paused for a moment, remembering that no one here would know Trigedasleng. “I mean, sorry to bother. I’m looking for someone, her name is Clarke Griffin, she has short blonde hair, about me height. She’s probably carrying a weapon. Have you seen someone like that?” She wasn’t very hopeful but it didn’t hurt to ask.

Aden had been here for... for months now, and in all that time he hadn’t yet found a single person he knew, it hadn’t stopped him from searching though. From what he had learnt about this strange ... world, he had learnt that new people seemed to show up randomly, some with memories of other places - some... just seemed to remember this world. It was odd and very strange for sure. So each day he took some time to just wander around, looking for a familiar face - hopefully one of the young natblidas - or god... Leksa. Indra... anyone really.

He was starting to have his doubts, being alone... it wasn’t something he was used to at all. But heard a word... a familiar word, in Trigedasleng - when had he last heard Trigedasleng? It had been way too long, It was simply - ‘Fiya.’. Although what followed was in Gonasleng, he understood it - but it was the use of that first word that had caught his attention. Although the girl wasn’t speaking directly to him, it was to some stranger he didn’t know he quickly turned around and moved towards them. “You are looking for Klark Griffin... of... Skaikru.” He stressed the clan name, he had learnt in his time on his own that it was best to not randomly speak Trigedasleng.

“I haven’t yet seen Klark here.. or anyone from Polis I know. You are the first to ask about a face I know from home.”  He spoke carefully, glancing at the stranger who now seemed to just turn and leave - so no memories of other places that person had he assumed. Turning his attention back to the girl though, taking in her appearance. She knew Clarke, that was the most important thing, “What clan are you from? Are you Skaikru?” Perhaps that was how she knew Clarke.

“I am still not certain how I got here either. This place is not familiar to me either, but I have learnt more about this place - perhaps I can be some help.”

hayley had been searching around washington dc for a day or two. she was mostly looking for her family. she needed to know what happened to her daughter, klaus, elijah. she could feel her eyes turning as the scent of blood entered her nose. it was almost like she hadn’t fed in years. she shook it off as someone approached. “i’m fine. i swear. my eyes get red when i’m tired.” she told the person, having yet looked into their eyes

Aden was still looking for people himself, it was strange - this... world.. so much was different yet he hadn’t found a single person from home. No one he knew was here - it was, unsettling to say the least. But he was still determined, still each day he searched before night fell once more. His eyes caught sight of the woman first, his head tilting slightly at her words, “A strange thing for them to do.” he commented on her words before straightening his shoulders, “Are you lost?”

[steyujblida]

alex knew what it was to think that you had to act okay, even in the moments where you weren’t. when she looked at his ankle, even from a distance and without testing anything, she knew it was worse than he was letting on, which probabl meant that he was in a bad situation before. “i can help,” she told him. “do you mind if i have a proper look at it?”

Aden shook his head slightly, trying to focus on more of what was going on around him. He was - so tense, as if expecting something bad to happen at any moment. The world he knew, it was for the most part true in many ways. Letting your guard down was not a wise decision. Still he glanced at the woman, a slight frown on his face. “You’re a healer - yes?” He questioned before slowly nodding his head, “You may examine it if you wish - It is not that bad though.” To him perhaps it wasn’t that bad, it was a minor injury - and not something he deemed so important as to bother anyone.

[songbvrd]

“hi,” alex asked in as friendly a voice as she could muster, giving the person opposite her an appropriately welcoming smile. “can i help you with something?” the nurse asked, clocked into nurse mode rather than hunter mode, otherwise her tone might’ve been quite different.

[steyujblida]

Aden wasn’t sure why he had let those people bring him here, it wasn’t like he was even hurt badly, still apparently this was a place that helped people - filled with - healers. And healers were some of the smartest people he knew at least.. back home they had been. He shifts a little uncomfortably, still favoring his right foot slightly. “I got hurt.” He murmurs to the woman that spoke to him. He nodded to his left foot, the ankle was swollen rather badly - it was a miracle he was still standing with it. “I was told to come here, get it checked. It’s fine though, really - I have had worse.”

clarke was honestly still lost about this place.it was suddenly like everything that she had been through had never happened. earth had never become inhabitable. it meant that the fabric of everything she ever knew was gone. or at least that was the way that it appeared to the blonde.

but yet she still found herself in the dark material as she made her way through the white house. she was thankful that she had already found lexa, though that was still a shock as well. the last she knew the brunette had been long gone, but everything about this place was strange. she wasn’t ready to even try to question why she was there. as long as she had her love by her side she was alright with it for the time being.

but as she made her way around the bal, she hadn’t really expected to see anyone else from her world. especially not aden. but there he was asking her if she was really there too. “i am apparently. i didn’t expect to see you here though. have you seen lexa too?”

Aden had been in this place for quite a long time, and in all of that time - he had yet to run into a familiar face. Due to that fact, he honestly had been questioning what had brought him here, and still trying to work out where everyone he knew was. He did not have answers to any of them and the teenager had been living on his own away from these buildings. Still - he had still gone to the place they called the ‘White House’, if for no other reason that for the chance to maybe run into someone he knew, maybe even find some answers.

At The sight of the blonde. Of Klark - Wanheda, most importantly - the Sky Girl that had become so important to Leksa. Well, Aden was more than happy. He had sworn to Leksa to look out for her, so finding her here it was a relief and he was genuinely happy to see her.  “I am pleased to see you are here, and safe as well Klark Kom Skaikru.” His words were said with honesty as he offered a small smile to her.

But her words brought a confusion to his face - his eyes showing a hint of a pain before a faint hope slipped through. “Klark.... Leksa.. her... Do you not remember?“ His words stumbled slightly, a little un-character, but surely Klark recalled what had happened. “Her fight ended... I... is she... is she here too?” The last for words wavered, a hint of the small boy he had been showing through. The loss of his Heda, of Leksa had hit him harder than he had let shown - all of the Natblida had grieved for her, but Aden had lost an important figure in his life, Leksa had been family.

Chaos that was the word Madi would choose to describe what was going on around them. She had no idea what was happening, one moment everything was well, people were having fun and talking and the next, everyone was screaming and running, trying to escape this place but the doors seemed to be locked, everything was locked. Madi came here to see if she could find Clarke here, it seemed to be some sort of celebration, where everyone was coming to so she came along. 

Madi’s eyes landed on a familiar face, McCreary. He was dead, Clarke had killed him, how was it possible for him to be here? Behind him, the Eligius members that Madi had killed, all staring at her with sick smiles on their faces. The Commanders on her head kept telling her to fight, to kill the enemy but she knew better than that, she couldn’t start a fight in this place. Plus, they seemed to be armed. Madi made her way towards the exit, hoping to stay away from them. 

Madi ended up noticing a familiar face on the distance. She noticed the knife on the boy’s hand and slowly approached him, her hands remained shown so that he could see that she wasn’t trying to hurt him, that she wasn’t a threat. Madi noticed how tensed he was, it was obvious that he saw something that scared him. Lexa had shown her memories of her novitiates and this was one of them, the one who was supposed to be Heda after her. “Aden.” She said his name, still looking at him. “Ai laik lukot.” She paused. “Madi Griffin. Klark ste ai nomon.” 

Everything else around him, the people - the sounds, they all seemed to fade away the moment when his eyes locked onto the form that he saw. She was just as he remembered - only.. covered in blood. Black blood. There was so much anger - so much hurt was there in his body and he couldn’t quite recall why. Of course, Ontari was not someone he liked - she wanted to take over, to be Heda. To replace Lexa. To ruin her legacy, what she had fought for - what she had done. The idea was one that didn’t sit well with him. But despite not remembering certain things, he knew that Ontari wasn’t good - that she had done something bad. Something that sent a chill down his back - that made him feel physically ill. He knew it was to do with the other Natblida - his brothers.. his sisters. Even himself. He knew he had to stop her from hurting people. 

Why didn’t anyone else notice her?

The smile on her face made him want to do something, his hand clutched the knife tighter in his grasp. But no - this wasn’t the place. There were people here, innocent people. He couldn’t put them in danger. 

He hadn’t notice anyone approaching him until they were right near him, his eyes darted towards the figure, the sound of his own name though. That was a strange thing. His gaze went back to where he had seen Ontari, only for her to no longer be there - his head shook, a wariness still there. Had it been in his head? His thoughts were shaken once again though when he heard the girl speaking again, her words while he understood them - did not make sense what so ever. Klark did not have a child, he was fairly certain of that fact. 

His gaze held her own before he shook his head once more, nodding his head after a moment - he took a few steps back, nodding towards the exit. His hand not budging from the knife. “Yu Laik Klark Kom Skaikrus goufa?” He questioned as they exited the building. His voice showing his confusion just slightly, switching back to Gonasleng quickly when he spoke again,  “She has no child. How do you know my name?” His own question left his lips, his shoulders straight as he glanced back at her, she certainly didn’t resemble the blonde that he knew. 

[steyujblida]

Aden wasn’t sure what had just happened. Or more importantly how it had happened. One second things seemed well.. fine, or rather normal. Whatever that truly even meant anymore - he wasn’t completely sure - as for him, none of this was even really normal. This whole place was strange to him, maybe this was a normal thing - at least he thought that at first, until he started to see and hear that people were clearly very much afraid. Fear was something that he knew of, he could recognise that. This was real, whatever it was.

He had been moving to the exit, his body tensed - ready to fight if he needed to when he spotted a face that he knew - was it real? Was it not? He wasn’t quite sure - but that face - that smirk - oh he knew that face, it was the last thing he remembered before he had woken up in this strange place. Ontari.

Why was she here? How was she here? His body was tense, his hand pulling a knife from his leg where he had hidden it - His eyes darting around, what was going on?

@antebellvm gets a starter for Clarke!

In all the time that he had been in this strange new world, he hadn’t yet found anyone that he knew from back well.. home. Polis was his home after all and it was very strange to not be there - or even in a world that was familiar at all. This whole world was strange and honestly rather scary - not that he was willing to admit to that part. He was a warrior, trained to face anything, although he had never expected his training to help him in this kind of situation. Yet here he was.

For the most part since he had arrived he spent his time in the woods, the trees honestly somewhat of a comfort for him. But for some reason he had allowed himself to be convinced into coming to this strange ‘ball’ thing. A celebration from what he understood - celebration of what though he didn’t have a clue. The clothes were odd, a strange material - itchy even, they reminded him of the clothing the Sky People wore and it was odd to wear them himself.

He was actually enjoying this strange experience - the sounds, the music was rather nice, and the food - oh he was enjoying trying some of this food. A flash of blonde did catch his attention, but it wasn’t the first time that had happened and at first he had ignored it, until he heard the blonde speaking. He recalled that voice well. “Klark?” The name escaped him, surprising even himself as he spoke without realising, a small smile forming on the blonde teenagers face. As he looked up, face brightening as he happily moved closer, “Klark Kom Skaikru, you are here as well?”

@illvsivns gets a starter for Lexa!

A ball was a strange thing, something he still wasn’t sure how to think about  this whole situation. But he was invited and it might be seen as disrespectful to whoever it was that had invited him if he didn’t show up, so as awkward and as uncomfortable as he was feeling. He had shown up, trying his best to not to show how out of place he was feeling. The clothes themselves were making him feel out of sorts a little. These were like Skaikru clothes, how strange. 

He still wasn’t all that sure how he had even ended up here in this place, this - Washington place that was far from the world that he knew - the place that was his home. This place was far from home, far from Polis.. far from anything he knew. And so far, he was on his own. There had been no sign of the other Natblida, no matter how much he searched, no matter who he spoke to - he hadn’t come across anyone that he knew. 

Which in itself was a terrifying thing, but he wasn’t giving up - whatever was going on he would find out what was going on, he was taught to survive whatever was thrown at him. But this... oh, this was something that was out of the blue, something that shook him to his core. He hadn’t yet come face to face with something like this. 

“Leksa...?” The name fell from his mouth, a single word - shaking slightly as his eyes landed on the familiar figure. This wasn’t possible... but that was her. Wasn’t it?

✧ ❝ New to the concept ?? ❞ She asked, raising her eyebrows slightly as she figured out how exactly one should describe… balls like these. And she shrugged, ❝ Imagine a beautiful scene of people in clothes that cost more than THEY do, dancing around polished floors somebody’s probably going to pass out on later. And it goes on for a few hours, and people drink, talk about things, and it’s a very pretty scene if you can ignore all the bitchy snobs and creepy rich assholes that tend to populate a good chunk of it. ❞ 

           She shrugged. ❝ Sometimes if you’re lucky you can meet some interesting people. Look at Cinderella - goes a ball, meets a guy, and she has her whole  l i f e  cut out for her. But that shit really only happens in the FAIRYTALES, most of the time. ❞   

Aden shook his head, giving a slight shrug of his shoulders in response, “Perhaps a little... is that a bad thing?” He raised his eyes, a slight frown forming as he listened to her explanation, “So, like a celebration - that is what it is?” He could recall a few things similar to that at least, although perhaps not exactly what was being described, this would certainly be a new experience and he already felt a little uncomfortable about it all.

Aden had no idea who it had been that dropped this invitation by for him, or even more - how they had known where he was staying let alone how they found him. Still now he was staring at the words on the paper, trying to work out what it was exactly that he was being invited to attend. 

“I don’t get it - why do I have one of these?” He held up the invitation, not really thinking before asking the nearest person.
