Chapter 20:

Clarke's POV:

"Clarke, we need to talk about Raven." This isn't good. I can't stop crying.

"Clarke. Stay calm."

"Mom! How can I stay calm. No one will tell me anything. Where are my friends."

"I understand that, but if I'm going to take you to Octavia, I need you to be calm because I can't keep her calm as it is."

"Okay mom. I'll try."

"She's in critical condition Clarke. You don't have any idea what's happened?"

"No mom. All I got was a really weird voicemail on my phone at like 9:20am."

"Let me hear it Clarke."

After she hears the voicemail her facial expression hardens. I can see in her eyes that she's trying not to cry. It must be really bad.

"I need you to be calm Clarke, I mean it."

"Okay mom."

Walking in I can't see anything, but I can hear her heart monitor. Turning the corner I see that a cop is sitting by her bedside and a nurse is checking her vitals.

"Clarky!" Her face is scraped, but not bad. Her leg is broken again. Someone did damage to her.

"O. What happened?"

"I don't know. I can only remember leaving you a voicemail."

"I got it pretty girl. I'm so sorry I didn't get here sooner." She smiles when I call her pretty girl.

"Where's Ray, Clarke?" She's serious now. She called me by my name.

"Babe I don't know. That's partially why I'm freaked out. As soon as my mom tells me, I'll tell you."

Lexa's POV:

I didn't get to go into Octavia's room because Abby asked me to stay out with her. She said she needs to talk to me before Clarke comes back out.

"Lexa I know you're only a child, but because of you Octavia's wounds weren't worse."

"What do you mean Abby?"

"Octavia put up one hell of a fight according to skin under her nails. She was fighting at least three people." Damn O. Get it girl.

"Wow. Okay, so what do you need from me Abby?"

"I need you to train Clarke. Like really teach her to defend herself Lexa."

"I can do that. What's going on Abby?"

"We can't find Raven. There's no trace of her. We can't get ahold of her mom either. The police are doing all they can, but they're getting nowhere right now." Oh my gosh. This is bad.

"How can I help?"

"I need you to keep Octavia and Clarke safe Lexa. I know I'm asking a lot of you, but I need your help."

"Of course Abby. Where is Octavia's mom?"

"She will be in town within the hour."

"Okay. Can I go to crime scene or no?"

"It should be cleared now."

"I'll be back in thirty minutes Abby. Can you keep Clarke busy?"

"Absolutely. Keep me updated."

I have a feeling whoever did it will still be lingering around Raven's house. I don't even know who would do this to them. It's fucked up. I don't see anything suspicious, no wait. What the fuck. Who is that?

I quietly go to the backyard so I can sneak in the back way. It's a guy. He doesn't look much older than me. What the fuck?

"Looking for something specific or do you just always raid houses after something bad has happened?" I say to the shaggy haired boy.

"Do I know you bitch?" Who the fuck is he calling a bitch?

"No, but you're going to bitch."

"You don't want to fight me little girl."

"We don't have to fight. Tell me why you're here. Why your face is scratched by someone's nails I'm assuming? Strange."

"Fuck you. I don't know what you're talking about."

"Yeah well the cops should be here any second." I say lying through my teeth.

"The cops? Yeah right."

"I called them when I saw you rummaging through Raven's room."

"Don't you dare say her name you disgusting dyke."

"I thought you didn't know me."

"I know who you are. You don't know who I am though."

He's trying to distract me but I won't fall for it. Not this time. He's still running his mouth and I see my opportunity to tackle him. I'm taking it.

"What the fuck! Get off of me bitch."

"Call me bitch one more time."

"Costia said you were a bitch. Too bad your girlfriend isn't here. I'm sure I could remind her of the good times we used to have." He says right before I punch him in the face clearly breaking his nose.

Why the fuck is Clarke's ex and my ex trying to attack Raven and Octavia?

"How do you know Costia?"

"We're fuck buddies and have been for oh I don't know, two years." Now I'm sick to my stomach. This is who she decided she liked instead of women? Gross.

I'm so upset that he gets away, but not without his wallet. Please for the love go god don't be…

"Finn"

"Are you fucking kidding me?!" I scream to no one.

"Hey. Are you still in DC? I need a favor. Meet me at midnight?"

"I'll be there." Is all she says before cutting the line off.

Blood must have blood.

Raven's POV:

What the fuck is going on? Why am I tied to this post? Why does this seem so familiar?

"You like? We got it from that show The 100." Fuck I knew I had seen this before. That voice. It's familiar.

"Hello Raven. Remember me?"

"Finn?!"

"Yes that's right. You know I had a run in with Clarke's dykey girlfriend today."

"Is that why you have a black eye and broken nose?"

"Of course not. The nose, yes. My eye and these scratches however are from that sexy piece of ass that was in your room. What's her name again?"

"O." Is all I can even think of. Now I'm pissed.

"I swear to God if anyone hurt her, I will kill each and every one of you with my bare hands."

"Is that so? Well from where we stand, the only one dying is you." He says pointing a knife at me.

"Do you remember this part on the show? I'm going to cut your arms now. Enjoy."

If I can get my foot out of my boot I can kick him. Come on Raven. You can do this! Yes!

"Keep talking shit asshole." I say kicking his face.

"What the fuck Finn. You said she wouldn't be able to get out of these ropes." Costia?!

"Are you fucking kidding me right now?"

"Nope. I'm sure Lexa told you about me? I used her for her kisses, then told her I liked boys. I was with him the whole time."

"Wow Finn. So this is who you cheated on Clarke with?"

"Yup."

"So why did you pick me then?"

"Because we knew we'd be able to get to Clarke and Lexa if we captured you."

"You guys must have a boring sex life if this is what excites you." I say before getting slapped hard by Costia.

They walk out of the room after she slaps me. How the fuck am I going to get out of this. The rope on my hands is kind of loose. God I hope someone finds me soon. I hope Octavia is safe and okay. Fuck.

Lexa's POV:

"Anya. Thanks for coming."

"Of course. We were best friends."

"I know. But I haven't talked to you since my parents died."

"It's understandable. I've been waiting for you to contact me."

"I appreciate it. You remember Costia?"

"Of course I remember that Ice Queen bitch. Why what's going on?"

"Look it's a long story, but right now I need to figure out where she is. She has literally kidnapped one of my friends."

"What the fuck? How do you know?"

"Right before I called you I went to my friend's house to check out the crime scene and I ran into one of the kidnappers. He said Costia was one of the other kidnappers."

"Oh wow. Yeah we'll find her. Do we get to fuck her up?"

"Fuck yeah."

"Let's go."

This isn't going to take long at all. The two of us are going to annihilate those two sons of bitches.

Clarke's POV:

"Mom, have you seen Lexa? She was here last night?"

"Yeah she went home early this morning." What the fuck. My mom has never lied to me.

"Why are you lying?"

"I'm not. She did leave early this morning. Around midnight."

"Where'd she go?"

"Don't worry about it honey."

What is going on?

"How is Raven mom?"

"She'll be better soon sweetie."

"Why didn't I get to see her yesterday?"

"She was very tired sweetie."

"Stop lying to me mom!"

"Okay. Sit down."

"Okay, now tell me."

"We haven't found Raven."

"What?!"

"That's where Lexa is."

Lexa is out there hunting down my friend?

"She knows who has her."

"How?"

"She had a run in with one of the kidnappers yesterday."

"What? When!"

"While you were visiting with Octavia, she went to Raven's to check the crime scene. Finn was there rummaging through Raven's stuff when he and Lexa got into a fight. He also said his fuck buddy Costia was in on it."

"Of fucking course. Sorry."

"It's fine. I hope Lexa and her friend can handle this."

"Me too."

Fuck. He better not hurt her.

Octavia's POV:

I miss Raven so much. I wish they'd let me see her. They wouldn't even let Clarke see her. At least my mom is here now. Her name is Indra. She's my mom even if no one wants to believe it just because she adopted me after my birth mother was killed. She's had me since I was born. I wonder if she's talked to Ray's mom.

"Hey mom?"

"Yes sweetheart?"

"Have you talked to Raven's mom?"

"No. Actually I haven't heard back from her."

"Weird."

"I know. Don't worry they'll find her sweetie. Stop stressing."

"They'll find who?"

"Her mom sweetheart. Who else?"

"Mom, have you seen Raven?"

"Hmm what did you say honey?"

"Have you seen Raven?"

"Oh. No they wouldn't let me."

Why is my mom so clearly lying to me. Fuck my leg is killing me. I wish I had Raven here. She always makes everything feel better.

Raven's POV:

"So it looks like you might have company soon little RayRay."

"What are you talking about?"

"Lexa is on the prowl for you apparently." Thank God. I knew I'd survive.

"Shouldn't you guys be getting ready for battle then?"

"Oh please. My bodyguard upstairs will handle her. Would you like to see Roan?"

"That's his name? Roan?" I say trying not to laugh.

Then I feel a knife pressing against my neck.

"I could easily kill you. Be grateful you little bitch."

"Oh please. Spare me the bullshit lies."

"You guys should really prepare for Lexa."

"Shut the fuck up." She yells before tying a rope around my mouth so I can't speak anymore.

Lexa's POV:

"This is it Lexa."

"Excellent. How shall we do this?"

"She has a bodyguard in front. We should start with him."

"I got him."

"You sure?"

"Hell yeah. Once I've got him distracted, head in and find Raven."

"Let's do this."

"Thank you Anya."

"Stop thanking me."

"Okay. Be safe."

"You too. Now let's go."

Abby's POV:

"Mama G have you heard any news on Raven's condition."

"No sweetie."

"Okay."

"Sorry sweetie."

"Indra can I have a minute with you?"

"Of course Abby. Be right back Octavia."

I don't say anything until I'm 100% sure Octavia can't hear us.

"So Lexa has found Raven."

"Oh my god. That's great."

"Yes. Raven's condition is very bad. She's being transported here now as we speak. It's not looking too good for her."

"What do you mean?"

"The kids that took her messed her up. Lexa said she has knife cuts everywhere and she's lost a lot of blood. She also can't walk. They damaged one of her legs so bad that she can't feel it."

"Oh my god."

"Let's not say anything to Octavia just yet."

"Absolutely not."

Indra says before walking back to Octavia's room. I'm just glad she's alive. And that little bitch will finally go to jail. Finn too. That piece of shit. The bodyguard Roan, I think is what Lexa called him. And John Murphy. He is one that I could definitely see doing this.

"Clarke!"

"Where is she mom?!"

"Who sweetie?"

"Lexa!"

"She'll be here shortly."

"Is she okay mom?"

"Some bumps and bruises. That's all. Raven however is in bad shape."

I wipe the tears from her face.

"Why don't you go see Octavia while we wait."

"Okay."

How can kids be so damn mean today. These four girls are nothing but sweet, kind hearted, smart girls. It can't just be because they're gay.

"Dr. Griffin, she's here."

"Let me see her. Now!"

"Mama G? How is O?"

"She's okay Raven. Let me get you stable then I'll bring her to you."

"Okay."

After an hour of assessment, we came to the conclusion that her leg would need to be amputated at the knee. Someone shot her in the leg. Who does that?

"Mama G please! Don't take my leg. Please!"

"We have no other choice Raven."

"Can't we just permanently brace it like on that show? The feeling lost in my leg could come back."

"We'll see sweetie. Just relax for now."

"Okay."

"Mom how is she?"

"She's okay for now."

"Can I see her?"

"Yes."

"Lexa can we speak?"

"What's up Abby?"

"Thank you." Is all I say before I start crying while hugging her.

"I appreciate everything you've done."

"I'd do it for anyone."

"Well thank you."

"Can I see Octavia?"

"Of course."

Clarke's POV:

"Ray!" I say crying while hugging her.

"Hey Griff. I missed you. How is she?"

"Better than you. How's your leg?"

"It's okay. I'm more concerned with seeing Octavia."

"I'll see what I can do."

"Thanks Griff."

Twenty minutes later I had Octavia wheel chaired into Raven's room. It was like a movie scene seeing them reunited.

"I love you Octavia. I'm so sorry I didn't protect you better."

"Stop. I love you." O says before kissing Raven hard.

"Look O, we're twins." She says pointing at their legs.

"I'm going to head out guys. See you in the morning."

"Bye Griff. Tell Lexa I said thank you again."

"Bye Clarky."

"I will. Love you guys."

"Love you." They say at the same time.

I tell my mom bye before heading home.

"Hey babe. What're you doing here?"

"I missed you."

"Raven said thank you again."

"Do you want to know what happened?"

"Yes please."

Lexa's POV:

"After ten minutes of fighting with Roan, I finally got him to the ground and unconscious. When I went inside, Anya was fighting Costia while Raven just held Finn in a chokehold. I had already called the police, so we just needed to hold them a little longer. Unfortunately we didn't know there was a fourth. He attacked me from behind while I was making sure Raven was okay. He and I fought for maybe five minutes but the cops showed up. They arrested Roan first. When they came inside we had the other three pinned. They interviewed all three of us. Me, Anya, and Raven. Raven couldn't walk so I carried her upstairs so they could get her on a gurney. Costia tried saying she was the victim. None of the boys spoke at all. They accepted their defeat."

I say finishing the memory/flashback.

"You are so incredible and incredibly stupid." She says before kissing me.

"I had to do something."

"Thank you Lexa."

"I would've killed them if it was you."

"I know."

"Let's go inside."

"Yes let's." She says pulling me inside by my shirt.

After hours of making love, we finally fell asleep. Watching her sleep reminds me of how beautiful life is. She is the very definition of perfection. I would do anything for this precious woman. The most beautiful creature I've ever encountered. I would do anything to keep her safe and make sure no one ever does what was done to Raven and Octavia. That's a promise.
