the 100 verse: your promised land sucks for @xnotafraid
Heart racing in his chest, thudding PAINFULLY against his ribcage, he could only gaze in fear at the ones that had came for him. He hadn't known where ELSE to go. He knew he was banisshed. Banished because Clakre had believed him TOXIC. Not because he had murdered anyone, like Charlotte had. No. Banished because he was t o x i c. Left to his own devices. Of course he would be caught by the Grounders. Of course he would break under their torture. What else could he have done? He hadn't even tried. Not really. They hadn't given him a reason to be HELPFUL toward them... They had strung him up, had not believed him, and when the real murderer showed herself up, they wanted to let her walk free.
The last place he had wanted to return to was HERE... But it was the ONLY place he knew of... And not EVERYONE had agreed to the hanging. Some had tried to stop it. Finn... C l a r k e with her high and mighty attitude... But the one that had stung the most was BELLAMY'S betrayal. Because out of all people, Murphy had thought he would've been believed by HIM...
Fearful eyes shot from one person to the other, a hand raised up in a means of protection to himself. Would they MURDER him for returning? Chest heaving, he swallowed once before his eyes finally fell on Octavia's, a silent plea upon his face. He didn't want to die like this. He didn't want to be caught by the Grounders again. He didn't WANT them to torture him any further then they already had.
He didn't want to die like this...
" Octavia... Don't send me away... " he finally managed to rasp out through bloodied lips, hating the tremble he felt through his body. The kick of adrenaline was dying down, reminding him of the WOUNDS he had sustained.
