pilot; ❛ GODDESS ❜ ⤞ the one hundred
❝ quite unexpected affection there❞

Sep. 13. 2149

Freedom.

The excited cries and shouts fill the previously undisturbed air as a hundred people step out onto the earth for the first time in forever.

Her heart races with exhilaration as Athena steps hesitantly onto the soil, her senses alive with the unfamiliar sights, sounds, and smells.

With a wide grin spreading across her face, she takes in the sensation of soft ground beneath her feet, a stark contrast to the metallic walls of the Ark. Walking away from the groups of her fellow prisoners, Athena discovers a small clearing bathed in sunlight.

There, throughout the wild greenery, she spots a familiar bloom, a coneflower, reminding her of her time at Farm Station, albeit brief.

With a delighted laugh, she kneels down to inspect the delicate petals, feeling a swell of connection with the ground beneath her feet.

Her attention is pulled away, however, when she hears the voice of her friends. Her head shoots up as she stands, following the sound. Once she catches the sight of the back of their head, she runs and throws herself on them.

The person quickly turns their head trying to pinpoint the attack but they quickly relax as they catch sight of her hair flowing in front of her.

"Oh my god, Athena," Murphy says in shock, wrapping his arms around his closest friend.

"Hi Murph," she says smiling down at him.

He carefully puts her down and turns around to hug her properly. She wraps her arms around him burying her head in his shoulder.

"Quite unexpected affection there, John." She jokes as they pull away.

"Oh, whatever A, you know you missed me."

They're cut off at the sound of her brothers voice.

"You mind?" He asked, clearly annoyed, pushing Jasper back slightly.

As much as Athena loves her brother, she also loves Jasper and isn't going to let anything happen to him. Luckily for her, Murphy walks up and intervenes,

"Hey, hey, hey, hands off of him. He's with us."

She shoots him a thankful look and turns to her brother, her voice silvery.

"Can we please not fight five minutes into-"

"Relax. We're just trying to figure out where we are," Wells cuts her off, gently wrapping his arm around her shoulder and acknowledging Murphy.

She opens her mouth to say something but quickly closes it again. She quietly steps away to observe the scene in front of her.

"We're on the ground. That not good enough for you?"

She looks over to see Bellamy and Octavia walking toward the group as a crowd begins to form.

"We need to find Mount Weather. You heard my father's message. That has to be our first priority."

Athena internally winces, it was always a bad move bringing up their dad.

The growing uneasy feeling casts a shadow over their newfound freedom, making her lean towards Jasper.

"Screw your father," Octavia calls out, "What, you think you're in charge here, you and your little Princess?"

Athena bites the inside of her cheek, holding one of her arms in the other as Octavia shoots her an apologetic look.

Before anyone can say anything, Clarke steps forward,

"Do you think we care who's in charge? We need to get to Mount Weather not because the Chancellor said so, but because the longer we wait, the hungrier we'll get and the harder this'll be."

She has to admit Clarke has a good point but the others were not as open minded, half of the people here wouldn't care an ounce about anything the council says.

"How long do you think we'll last without those supplies? We're looking at a twenty-mile trek, okay? So if we want to get there before dark, we need to leave now", she finishes her speech looking around.

It seems she had begun to convince some of the crowd until Bellamy goes and opens his mouth, again. "I got a better idea. You two go, find it for us. Let the privileged do the hard work for a change."

Everyone surrounding calls out in agreement, making Athena frown. She sighs and steps away, scared to get in the middle of a fight. Her brother seems to have other ideas,

"You're not listening, we all need to go."

Murphy, unimpressed walks up and shoves him back, a fake smile plastered onto his face.

Her eyes widen and her breathing stifles slightly, she instinctively reaches out to steady him, frowning at Murphy, her lips pouting slightly.

"Look at this, everybody... The Chancellor of Earth," Murphy says, smirking.

"John..."

"Think that's funny?" Wells questions, not backing down.

Murphy then lands a punch on him, making Athena go to stop him. But she's stopped by a hand wrapped around her arm.

"Wells!" Clarke shouts

Athena looks up to see Bellamy staring down at her, She stares back at him, shaking her head. He clears his throat and lets go of her arm

"Just uh, don't want you getting in the middle of the fight," he stumbles over his words.

Athena steps back confused, her face getting hot with what was hopefully anger.

"That's my brother." Is all she says before going back to her task until a body drops down in between them.

"Kid's got one leg. How about you wait until it's a fair fight?"

She sighs, shoulders dropping, when Octavia calls out,

"Hey, spacewalker, rescue me next."

She rolls her eyes internally gagging and can't control the look of disgust that takes over her fact. She walks up to Finn, her brow raised,

"Look at you spacewalker, saving the day,"

"Oh well, you know me, always helping," he says, ruffling her hair only to have her push his hand away.

He wraps his arm around her as they walk over to Clarke,

"Uh, so Mount Weather. When do we leave?" He questions his usual smirk on his face.

"Right now. We'll be back tomorrow with food" She responds, nodding her head

"How are the three of you gonna carry enough food for a hundred?" Her brother asks the obvious question.

Finn quickly turns around, grabs two people, and faces the group again.

She sees Monty & Jasper standing before them, she lets out a surprised laugh and waves.

"Five of us. Can we go now?"

"Four of you," she pulls away, "I think I'm gonna stay here, and see if I can help out with anything. Please b3 safe," she stresses, looking between her friends

"Promise we will," Jasper assures, a goofy smile on his face.

Octavia then walks up to the group,

"Sounds like a party, make it five!" Oh look five again!

Which doesn't go unnoticed by Bellamy as he walks up to the group, "Hey, what the hell are you doing?"

"Going for a walk?" She replies, obviously.

Athena tries to contain her giggles earning a look from Bellamy.

An idea pops into her head as she pats her brother on the shoulder as a goodbye and heads inside the drop ship.

She scans around for the things she's looking for and her eyes light up when she spots it.

She instantly gets to work on her little project, humming a song to herself.
