𝓐nastasia promised to help Wells bury the 2 kids that died during the landing after he came back from the river bed and at the break of dawn that is what they were doing. Anastasia dug the holes as Wells undressed them and placed them into the graves, while he covered them up. Menial work was not something that she was used to, so Anastasia managed to work up a sweat.
"I'm sorry for last night" Anastasia said looking at Wells as he covered up the last graves. Wells looked at her with kind eyes, but there was hidden resentment.
"There was nothing you could do, i'm just glad they didn't get to you too" Wells replied sealing the graves before grabbing the clothes.
"It's not fine, i bet the Ark is starting to believe that the Earth is unlivable and your father is probably heartbroken" she uttered walking behind him it wasn't hard to keep up with him as the limp was still visible.
"You're still alive to them, and that's all they need, you're the Ark's shining hope, their star" he retorted, causing Anastasia to stop, she was taken back by his comment, it was a stab at her.
"What the hell did Bellamy say to you last night?" Anastasia questioned, as she started walking again keeping up with Wells.
"Nothing, nothing" Wells shook it off "you know it's true, you were the one that learned all my father's advice not me" he spoke again after taking a break, showing his real feelings. Anastasia grabbed his arm and pulled it back in shock.
"Don't blame this on me, I didn't asked for any of this, and i don't just mean on earth, i mean back on the Ark too" Anastasia said but Wells quickly pulled it away and continued towards camp.
They walked to camp planing on hiding the clothes in the drop ship so they could only people who needed the clothes could taken them. Just like on the Ark, needs were more important than wants.
"Where'd you get the clothes?" A guy asked walking up to them as he left his friends.
"Buried the two kids that died during the landing" Wells answered holding the clothes tightly. Anastasia offered before they started to take some of the clothes but Wells declined claiming he didn't need help.
"Smart" he said with a smirk "you know i'll take it from here, there's always a market"
Anastasia cut him off "We share based on needs, just like back home" moving Wells away from him. Just them shirtless Bellamy appears from the curtains with a brunette accessory around his waist.
"You still don't get it" Bellamy joked "do you, princess" he said as the girl walked away "this is home now, the rules no longer apply". He threw out his arms widely. The boy who lunged for the clothes before walked towards Wells and grabbed a shirt from the pile causing Wells to jumped towards the boy.
Anastasia stopped Wells from jumping the kid but the kid was still ready to retaliate. The kid gave the shirt to Bellamy and went back to hit Wells while Anastasia was in the way.
"Oh no, no, Atom" Bellamy stopped the kid "you want it back? Take it" he suggested in a teasing manner holding up the pile of clothes.
Wells threw the rest of the clothes to the ground were the nearby kids flocked to it, fighting each other for the items from dead men.

"Is this what you want? Chaos" Wells asked
"What's wrong with a little chaos? Right princess?" Bellamy said causing Anastasia to finally meet his eyes, she hasn't seen him since she yelled at him last night but i seemed like he had one enjoyable night while Anastasia was crying on the ground praying the night sky for peace.
Anastasia was about the speak up when a girls screams echoed throughout the campgrounds. Wells, Anastasia, and Bellamy followed the scream to the low burning fire where Murphy was holding an innocent girl of the flame. A now shirted Bellamy walked up to Murphy.
"Bellamy! Check it out!" Murphy called with a mischievous and devious smile of his face, satanical even, "We want to Ark to think that the ground is killing us, right?" Murphy leg go of the girl's arm seeing that Bellamy had arrived to his little show. "Figure it'll look better if we suffer a little bit first" he hovered her arm over the open flame.
"Let her go" Wells screamed pushing Murphy of the girl and onto the ground
"You can stop this" Anastasia adding walking over the help the girl up and pulling her to the side.
"Stop this? I'm just getting started" Bellamy said as Murphy came up on Wells punching him in the face.
Anastasia stood in shock as the boys began fight and punching each other, it was almost over to quickly, with Wells victorious and Murphy knocked out on the ground. Anastasia rushed over to Wells to see of he was okay, his eye was bruised.
"Don't you see you can't control this!" Anastasia yelled at Bellamy turning back to Wells.
"You're dead" Murphy commanded heading towards Wells with a knife protruding from his hand, that's when Bellamy stepped in.
"Wait!" He said stepping in front of Murphy.
"Finally!" Anastasia screamed grabbing Wells by the shoulder prepared to examine him and wash of the blood with some water. Bellamy then threw a knife on the ground with a red handle taped around it.
"Fair fight, and no unnecessary casualties" Bellamy said escorting Anastasia out of the "arena".
"This is fucking stupid, if you get Wells actually killed I'll...." she said watching the knives clash in horror.
"You'll what?" He questioned looking at her with a smirk, "Float me?" Bellamy remarked snarky "Can't float me on the ground" he stated factly. Just them Murphy lunged at Wells cutting his arm through his jacket. Anastasia tried running out to him only to be stopped by Bellamy's arm.
"I said no unnecessary casualties" he commanded holding her closely to his body as the show continued for the excited crowd.
"This is for my father!" Murphy screamed lunging at Wells once again. They scuffled for awhile as the dust was throw up. As the dust cleared the scene was now with Wells holding a knife against Murphy's throat.
"Drop it!" Wells yelled at Murphy tightening the knife around Murphy's neck, as Anastasia could fell Bellamy let go in shock as she pushed forward, coming into the circle holding out her hand in surrender.
"Wells, i think..." Anastasia started trying calm him down as a cry erupted from the forest.
"Wells! Let him go!" She heard Clarke's voice scream as she rushed from the woods along with the others. Wells threw him on the ground, letting him live, as Clarke stepped in. Murphy began to retaliate holding the lone knife before Bellamy held him back.

"Hey! Enough, Murphy" he said before he saw Octavia. Bellamy rushed over to Octavia as she slowly made her way back with a little limp in her walk
"Where's the food?" Bellamy asked with disappointment but not shocked.
"We didn't make it to Mount Weather" The Spacewalker answered sitting on a rock, sitting back.
"What the hell happened out there?" Bellamy asked increasing the volume of his voice.
"We were attacked" Clarke replied, bringing concern to the others.
"By what?" Wells asked stepping forward to Clarke.
"Not what, who" The Spacewalker replied "turns out when the last man from the ground died on the Ark, he wasn't the last grounder" he uttered
"That's not possible, i've read everything about the nuclear war and nobody could survive that" Anastasia replied, knowing how much she sounded like a now-it-all.
It was true, part of her chancellor "curriculum" she is suppose to know more about the earth and the end of it than any normal citizen could possible imagine. The war sounded so horrible, each country sending nuclear bombs on each other, causing they all the be destroyed "mutually assured destruction" was what they called this. Something that day seemed to make that entire fact not matter, they launched all their weapons ending the world before climate change could.
"It's true" Clarke replied "Everything we thought we knew about the ground is wrong, there are people here, survivors, the good news is that the radiation won't kill us" she remarked, but the good news didn't seemed to outweigh the bad.
"Yeah bad news is the grounders will" The Spacewalker remarked with a slight sass.
"Hey where is the kid with the goggles?" Anastasia asked remembering the count of the trip was 5 but only 4 had returned.
"Jasper was hit, they took him" Clarke responded looking down at her shoes. That's when her eyes met Wells's wrist, she thought that sparseness was because it was the wrong wrist, but they she saw the other and they were both bare.
"Where is your wristband?" She questioned holding his wrist up worried, staring at him in disapproval.
"Ask him" Anastasia replied for Wells looking at Bellamy, calling him out.
"How many?" She asked Bellamy with this parental hold.
"24 and counting" Murphy replied blooded and bruised calling out from the circle.
"You idiots!" Clarke screamed at them "Life support on the Ark is falling! That's why they bought us down here, they need to know if the ground is survivable again, and we need their help against the whoever is out there, if you take off your wristbands, you're not just killing them, you're killing us" Clarke said yelling at everybody.
Bellamy butted in "We're stronger than we think, don't listen to her, don't listen to any of those three, they're privileged, if they come down, they'll have it good, how many can say the same? We can take care of ourselves" Bellamy looked over the Anastasia, who was eyeing him down holding firming onto her wristband.
"That wristband on your arm? It makes you a prisoner, we are not prisoners anymore! They say they'll forgive our crimes, i say you're not criminals! You're fighters, survivors, the grounders should worry about us!" Bellamy finished, once again managing to successfully rile up the majority of the 100, Anastasia snatched her wrist away from him. As the group began dismissing, along with Clarke as they met up again in the drop ship.
"What do we do now?" A kid asked following them, one of the people who just got back.
"Now we go find Jasper" Clarke replied.
Clarke spilt up to find supplies but Anastasia went to find Octavia, she want to look at her leg before leaving. She found her outside the drop ship with Bellamy as he set her down.
"I can help" Anastasia said walking up to Octavia, but she sneered at her showing that she was really Bellamy's sister.
"And why should I trust you?" Octavia asked roughly.
"I have about 18 summers of medical knowledge stuck in my brain, and luckily your brother hasn't convinced you to take off your bracelet yet, and i'm not willing to see you be the first actual death the Ark sees" Anastasia uttered leaning towards the leg.
Anastasia rolled up her pants where the bite was to see three slashes over the top of her leg. Octavia groaned as Anastasia examined that cuts, the bite still sore. The mark was still full of dried blood, but Anastasia tried to look past that, to see the real damage.
"They aren't deep, and you barely lost any blood" Anastasia said looking back up to Octavia.
"So she's going to be fine?" Bellamy questioned Anastasia diverting the attention. Anastasia ignored his questioned dipping the shirt used to tie up her thigh into the water to wash off the dried blood.
"What the hell was it?" Bellamy asked his little sister clearly with a fatherly presence.
"I don't know, the others said it looked like a giant snake" Octavia replied as Anastasia dabbed to water soaked shirt on her wound causing her to groan in pain.
"You could have been killed" Bellamy said with dissatisfaction as Anastasia tied up the shirt back on her leg.
"She would have of Jasper didn't jump in and pull her out" Clarke said coming out of the drop ship.
"You guys leaving?" Octavia asked wanting to get up "I'm coming too" she chimed in stepping up.
No, not way, not again" Bellamy replied keeping his sister down. Anastasia sat up and joined Clarke.
"He's right, your leg would slow us down" she replied, Clarke focused on Bellamy "I'm here for you" she said pointing to Bellamy.
"Clarke, what are you doing?" Wells questioned behind her confused.
"I hear you have a gun" Clarke said using Anastasia explanation of the last days, as her hearing about his gun. He pulled up his short showing the rubbed off gun tucked into his pants.
"Good follow me" she said asking him to come along as she walked off towards the woods.
"And why would i do that?" He questioned with a smirk.
"Because you want them to follow you, and right now, they're thinking only one of us is scared" she answered, Anastasia followed behind Wells and Clarke as they headed into the woods.
Anastasia had talked to Clarke about coming before, Clarke thinks that is Jasper is really hurt that Anastasia could help him before they even got to camp. She just didn't know how bad it would be, she had never done this before.
"Those guys aren't just bullies, Clarke" Wells said
"They're criminals" Anastasia finished looking behind her as she saw Murphy following Bellamy towards them.
"I'm counting on it" Clarke answered

Dark Matter
In the year 2023, scientists investigating the nature of dark matter caused a blackout throughout the entire world of Coranth. With this blackout came the appearance of supernatural and near-magical elemental abilities able to be wielded by all. By harnessing the dark matter in the environment, even ordinary humans now accessed powers that would have been deemed fantasy. These abilities include Wind, Fire, Lightning, Water, and Terra, being the five natural elements of which dark matter is absorbed by the planet itself. Additionally, the two moons orbiting Coranth offer the "Superior" elements of Dark and Light. The year is now 2041, and Dark Matter will follow the story of an adolescent boy named Raiden Sullivan in a dystopian future, 16 years old, eldest of 2, and son to Marcus Sullivan. Raiden is an intelligent young man belonging to a poor family with an absentee mother. He partakes in daily chores to cover living expenses after school and his home life is surrounded by his caring father and younger sister. In truth, this is my take on urban fantasy with slight LitRPG that keeps the "magic" elements somewhat scientific for a more realistic story. In using the dark matter surrounding our universe, humans can now harness elemental abilities as well as absorb dark matter from the beasts/monsters to further strengthen their abilities. For the most part, that'll be the main premise of the power system. Full transparency, this will be the first story I write and also the first story I publish, so please be patient with me. For some context, I'm an avid reader and after 4 or so years of only consuming, I feel that it might be time to try my hand at writing instead. Please feel free to add your opinions and criticism, it would be much appreciated. With that said, I hope you enjoy Dark Matter!
