Clarke's POV

We stumbled onto the ground and looked around only to see a whole lot of disciples pointing their guns at us.

"Hands up where we can see them."

"Wow, warm welcome." Murphy remarked sarcastically while putting his hands in the air.

"SHUT UP MURPHY!" Bellamy and I said at the same time.

I turned to him but he was already looking at me which made me turn away flustered.

Murphy snorted at us and we turned to glare at him, at the same time, again. And of course, Murphy noticed, again. And he smirked at us, again.

"Married I tell you."

"You do realize you're held at gun point right?" One of the disciples interrupted which made Murphy roll his eyes.

"It's not our first time you know."

"It may as well be your last if you don't co-operate."

"It will be your last if you don't tell me where my sister is." Bellamy retorted.

"You are in no position to make threats, Bellamy."

"If you wanted to shoot us, you would've done it by now." Murphy noted.

"Was that a challenge?"

"Maybe."

"Murphy stop being stupid." I scolded him.

"Stupid? Me? Nah, just stating the obvious."

"Well yeah the obvious until you make them mad and they actually shoot at us!"

"Geez calm down girl. Don't be so uptight. It's literally no big deal."

"No big deal? What are you on?"

"Stop acting like 5 year olds. We're here for Octavia, focus!" Bellamy chimed in.

"You're the one acting like a five year old with a crush and blushing whenever Clarke looks at you." Murphy teased him and made me blush even more.

Did that mean that Bellamy actually liked me or was that just Murphy messing with me?

"I cannot take this anymore!" One of the disciples exclaimed frustrated and next thing I knew, bullets were flying at us and I fell into darkness.

🌹🌹🌹

"Is she ever gonna wake up?" I heard someone groan.

"Murphy you're annoying the hell out of me. Shut up!" Another voice replied.

Was that Raven? I couldn't be sure. I felt dizzy as I started to open my eyes.

"Well look who's awake."

I could barely make out Miller standing over me. My vision was blurry and my head hurt.

As my vision got clearer, I started looking around. I saw everyone standing around me, Miller, Raven, Murphy, Emori, Jordan. But someone was missing.

"Where's Bellamy?" Were the first words out of my mouth as I gained complete consciousness.

"We don't know. He was probably taken somewhere else. We only woke up a while ago, in here, just like you." Emori replied.

"How are you feeling?" Jordan wondered.

" A little dizzy but mainly fine. Do we know what they shot us with? Will it cause any permanent damage?"

"I think it was simple anesthetic darts. No need to worry for now."

"Good. Now, we need to find Bellamy."

"How the hell are we supposed to do that? We have no idea where he is, or how to get out of here." Murphy sarcastically pointed out.

"Let's make a plan then."

Murphy rolled his eyes. "Whoah,why didn't I think of that?"

I facepalmed shaking my head.

"So what do you suggest we do in here?"

"Just wait?"

"Stop fighting! This isn't helping anyone. They will probably come to us soon so until then we do what Murphy said and just wait,without fighting." Miller lectured us.

Suddenly six disciples barged in and each one of them grabbed one of us. Someone grabbed my arms from behind. I struggled against his hold but he didn't seem affected by it.

"Where are you taking us?"Raven spoke up

"Didn't you come here to see your friends?We are taking you to them."

"How do we know you're not lying to get us to cooperate?" Miller claimed.

"You can't but would you really lose the opportunity to see them?"

"Lead the way then." Emori said apprehensively but not wanting to test them more.

Octavia's POV

My eyes blinked open. I was confused for a few seconds but as I slowly regained consciousness I remembered Gabriel shooting at us.

Freaking moron.

I looked around to see Echo, Diyoza and Hope already awake.

"What's going on?" I furrowed my brows in confusion.

"We have no-

The door suddenly opened. In came a few disciples holding....our friends?

"Octavia!" Clarke yelled at me. Immediately she fought off the man's hold on her, who let her go easily, and ran to me.

She wrapped her arms around me as tightly as she could and I reciprocated her hug just as tight.

Letting go of her, I looked at the others and the thought occurred me, "Where's my brother?"

"We- we don't know. They took him when we were knocked unconscious." Clarke's voice was weak, regretful as she replied.

"Is this a joke?"

"Does it look like I'm joking?Oh Octavia I wouldn't be joking about something like this."

"Where is he?"I tried to lung at the disciples but Clarke held me back and said

"Octavia stop this isn't going to help him.You need to calm down!"

"Don't tell me to calm down!" I spat at her

"Ladies,ladies stop fighting.We didn't get you here to fight,you're going to school!"He replied way too excited.

"Crazy man say what now?!" Murphy exclaimed

"You heard me,you're going to school."

🌹🌹🌹

We were all gathered in a room, sitting in chairs behind freaking children, about to be taught. The man wasn't kidding when he said we were going to school.

And all this, after having to freaking fight each other. Yep, fighting each other was apparently the first step in learning how to become disciples.

I was pretty freaking pissed.

On top of everything, Bellamy was still missing.

Fucking great.

Suddenly a man walked in with Anders besides him.

"Hello everyone. As you can see, mr Anders has joined me today, for a special lesson."

Anders nodded his acknowledge of the man introducing him. The children in front seemed really excited with his presence. Poor them.

Then Anders spoke up, "I want everyone to listen to me closely. Today we will show our visitors the basics. You will all do as I say, if you don't cooperate you will be punished."

"Yes sir!" The children responded excitedly. None of us replied but we got the message,loud and clear.

"Close your eyes.", Anders began. "Repeat after me. The shepherd brings us calm, he brings us wisdom, he brings us love for all mankind."

"The shepherd brings us calm, he brings us wisdom, he brings us love for all mankind." Everyone chanted.

Jordan's POV

I had no idea what was happening to the others. Gabriel and I were put to work on the anomaly.

Apparently Gabriel had a deal with the leader, Cadogen. And he included me in that deal. What can I say, I'm that smart.

I was looking at the symbols, trying to see what they may mean, until I realised...

"Oh my god."

"What is it Jordan?" Gabriel asked.

"Maybe it's structured like Korean."

"What do you mean? You aren't making sense, care to explain?"

"My dad's father was Korean. He taught me the language, what he knew of it, anyway. I didn't want to learn it at first. It looked like there would be thousands of characters to study."

"But there weren't?"

"No. That's not how Korean works. It uses an alphabet, same as english, just with the letters stacked into blocks of syllables, blocks that are easy to mistake as characters."

"You think Cadogen didn't decode the text right?"

"I think it's possible. Look. What if each of these strokes is just a letter? We all see what we want to see. If you're looking for the wrong answer, it's easy to miss the right one. Come on. Look at what's written about unlocking the stone. There's no mention about violence or pain, just...other planets?"

"What?"

"And it looks like someone had figured this out before? But they probably hid it..."

"You think it would be Cadogen? He's lying to his people? And wait, he probaby had them code it a different way to make it seem like a last war."

"It would make sense. Now, I'm just guessing here but there's a high possibility he's doing this to...take over the planets."

"No way. If that is the truth then we cannot let him manipulate all this people into the 'last war' just so he can gain more power. Come on. Show me what you mean."

"Ok. Now, if you look at these..."

And so I explained to him everything I thought. It was just a theory but so was Cadogen's last war.
