"Silence is a true friend who never betrays." - Confucius
Valery was slowly and casually walking through the woods back to camp. She took a detour, so she could sing and hum hymns and songs as long as possible. She loved singing, she sang a lot of songs for the people of the Ark. Going from station to station in the evening, singing out loud and dancing. She passed a clear well, where you could see the reflection of the trees.
She hadn't seen a clear view of herself in over two years. She knew she had red, curly hair that reached the hollow of her back and green eyes. She took a deep breathe and sat down on her knees in front of the well. She bend over, and looked into the water.
She had a light shock when she saw herself. She had the same curly red hair, but her face had changed. She looked older (of course), really like a young woman. Her jawline was clearly visible and she was as pale as snow, as she watched her hand that was resting in the grass. She didn't think she looked pretty, for her mouth was big with thin lips. Pretty much like a frog. Her eyes were big and she always had an expression on her face as if she was scared.
She looked like her mother, exactly like her. Fragile, scared, innocent and friendly. She thought about her father and threw a rock in the water, that made her reflection wrinkle and disappear. She stood up and took a deep breathe. She continued her walk and hymn until she saw a group of people in the distance.
She narrowed her eyes, and saw Clarke, Finn and Bellamy, who was pushing someone against a tree. She didn't want to be seen, so she walked away. "Hey!" Finn yelled.
Valery closed her eyes and tried to disappear behind a tree. "Val, we can see your hair, come out!" Finn yelled annoyed. She cursed something and stood up, walking towards the people. She saw who the woman was that Bellamy held against the tree. "Raven Reyes? What are you doing here?"
Raven took a step back, narrowing her eyes at Valery. "Your boyfriend took my radio out of my ship and threw it in the water!" Raven snapped at Valery. "He's not my boyfriend," Valery replied with her teeth clenched, "and I know that."
"He killed Jaha." Raven said. "I know that as well." Valery replied quietly. "Ok, well good news, Jaha's not dead." Raven said.
Bellamy's face turned pale and Valery muttered a "What?" Raven nodded to confirm. "You're a lousy shot." Raven said to Bellamy.
"Hey, but Bellamy," Valery started with a forced smile and looked at him, "that means you are not a murderer and that my old man is not the Chancellor, but Jaha is still! And you always did what you had to do to protect your sister! That's who you are."
"Yes," Clarke said, "and he can do that again." Valery frowned and turned around. "What?" She asked.
Clarke took a deep breathe. "They are going to kill 300 innocent people on the Ark, because oxygen is running out..." Valery stared at Clarke.
"And if they'd know we are still alive, they'd come here and..." Valery said and slowly looked at Bellamy and inhaled deeply, "WHY DO YOU DO EVERYTHING TO SAVE YOUR OWN SKIN?" Valery yelled at Bellamy.
Clarke grabbed Valery's wrist. "You also still have your wristband on!" Clarke yelled to Valery. Raven smirked. "Yeah, like that will help," Raven laughed sarcastically, "they'd probably think she killed everyone or survived the radiation because she's a demonic witch." Valery glared at her and mumbled something in Irish, staring at Raven. "What did you do?" Raven snapped.
"I just put a dark spell on you." Valery said tiredly and forced a sarcastic smile and put her middle finger up to Raven. She slowly turned around. "I'll see you guys at camp." Valery said quietly and walked away from the group.
