《Legends meet the 100》Chapter 4
Advertisement
Clarke wasn't entirely sure if Indra was angry or not. She knew that Indra didn't like her very much although she suspected that the reason for that was not her heritage. She believed that Indra just didn't like her specifically. The grounder has found friends among Clarke's people like Kane for example. The fact that Sara had gone to Clarke to talk and not to her didn't help to improve their relationship. But for now, Indra seemed calm. Clarke didn't know if Indra was just good at hiding her anger or if she was in fact calm.
While Clarke had been debating what Indra was feeling, the grounder had gathered the rest of her people around her. They were having an argument in Trigedasleng until Indra spoke up. Now, Clarke was sure that Indra was angry or at the very least annoyed. "Em pleni!" She turned around and headed towards Clarke. "They want to talk? Let's talk!" With that, she passed Clarke and marched with great strides towards the clearing. Clarke who got taken by surprise had to run to catch up to Indra. The other grounders followed them, but Clarke stopped them before they stepped out onto the clearing. When Indra gave her a questioning look, she explained that arriving here with a group of warriors would probably give the strangers the wrong impression and might provoke a fight. She added that they could stay hidden behind the trees and help if something went wrong. Indra looked back to her people who had been waiting for a signal from her and gave them a quick nod. The grounders hid right away out of sight. Clarke and Indra went towards the group in the middle of the clearing.
One of them must have been on watch because someone had woken up the rest of the group. Some of them were fully awake while others were still stretching and in the process of waking up. One of them was still sleeping even though a woman was shaking him. "Mick! Wake up!"

When Indra and Clarke reached the group, he woke up, grabbed his gun, and pointed it at them before opening his eyes fully. Another woman who Clarke recognized as Sara stepped between them. She told the man whose name seemed to be "Mick" to put his gun down. He growled discontentedly and complained about never being allowed to set anything on fire. Sara waited for him to lower his gun and then turned around to face Clarke and Indra. The other legends had circled the blonde and the grounder.
"Who are they?", Zari asked. The blonde answered before Sara could say anything: "We are grounders. My name is Clarke and ...", she pointed at the woman next to her, "...this is Indra of Trikru. But the real question is: Who are you? Your..." She hesitated for a second. "...captain?..." She glanced questioningly at Sara who gave a quick nod in response. "...told us that you are not from here." Nate smirked and said under his breath, "That's one way to put it." Everyone stared at him. When he realized it, he lifted his hands in a surrendering fashion. "Just saying", he added. Zari shook her head hopelessly and everyone reverted their attention back to the grounders. Clarke repeated her question. The legends all looked at Sara, expecting her to answer, but it was Charlie who ended up taking initiative and said, "That is a little bit complicated and a story for another time. All you need to know is that we have no intention to fight you. We just want to get back to where we came from as soon as possible." Sara gave her a quick, thankful nod while Indra complained angrily, "We need a bit more than that. How are we supposed to trust you? " Clarke interrupted her, before she could go on. "No matter what they tell you, you won't trust them! Just give them a chance. It looks like they knew about us for a while and they didn't attempt a single time to attack us, did they? And they're not attacking us now either, are they?" Indra was obviously displeased with the situation. "But why did they send two of their people away then?" The legends must have looked a bit worried, because Clarke reassured them right away, saying that Indra sent two of her people after them, but nothing would happen to them. "That doesn't answer my question: Why did you send them there?", Indra questioned them. Realizing that Indra would insist on this question, Sara explained that she sent them to the ship that they came here in to make sure that no-one found it and to make repairs. Indra still didn't look like she trusted them, but she didn't say anything anymore. Instead, Clarke spoke up while looking at Sara: "We know Sara, the captain, and your leader, but we haven't been introduced to the rest of you yet." Nate was the fastest to answer the hidden but obvious question. "Hi, I'm Nate and-", Charlie shoved him in the back. He corrected himself and finished with: "Nice to meet you." As he said that, he held his hand out towards Indra who just looked at it disgustedly. Clarke grabbed it in her stead and Nate shook it. Charlie went next making it short. She simply told Indra and Clarke, "Hey, I'm Charlie". Astra, Zari, and John did the same, although John added his last name to the introduction and Zari added a "Nice to meet you". Mick just grumbled his name.

"What now?", Astra asked. Indra announced that they would rejoin with her people and the other two legends at the same place where they split up. Then, they were going to meet the commander who would decide what would happen to the legends. With that, she called the grounders who had been hiding all this time. Most of the legends were surprised when they saw the warriors and hunters except their captain who Indra was getting more impressed by than she cared to admit.
Clarke stopped Indra in her impatience anticipating Sara's objection to walking through a forest in the middle of the night and pointed out to the grounder that it was still dark. They should wait for the next day and then they could leave. Indra agreed reluctantly and told her people to keep an eye on the strangers. They came closer to the legends looking a bit hostile. Everyone lied down except for Nate who was on watch next and a grounder warrior who got posted as night watch by Indra.
The rest of the night passed without any further interruption. In the morning, the legends picked up their things and then started to head back the same way they came. Indra led them with one of her warriors. Her other people followed in behind. The way back didn't take as long as the previous day, because the grounders knew the forest.

The Treasure King
Gray always knew he was special. He was blessed with a pair of heavenly eyes that saw the world like nobody else. He had dominating strength, honed by the savage wilderness of the King's Mountains. He was meant to achieve great things, to surpass his upbringing as an impoverished miner. His belief was confirmed one day when a beautiful fairy sister fell from the sky into his lap. She didn't stay long but she left an unforgettable impression. So, he set out into the endless world of cultivation to see her again and win her heart. He would encounter, along the way, countless treasures including ancient weapons, heavenly gems, rare metals, and sacred medicinal pills. He would meet all kinds of people and develop unbreakable bonds. He would struggle against enemies that challenged him to the physical and spiritual limit. He would even be dragged into an existential war for the human race against their eternal enemy. And perhaps, he would also find the time to establish his own dominion as the one and only Treasure King! Book 1 - Lord of the Jade Plains The Jade Plains, filled with great herds of bison and ferocious packs of wolves, was a dangerous frontier region where two towns fought for supremacy. These two towns, and two families that controlled each, were old foes destined to clash after a long period of fragile peace. The one that emerged victorious would become the undisputed lord, the owner of all the wealth that lied beneath these windswept hills and endless waves of grass. But nobody was prepared for the arrival of an exceptional young man from the mountains taking the first stumbling steps on a path to greatness. Author's Note: This novel has gone through major edits.

8 240Dungeon Divided
How hard would it be for humans to reach another unniverse? It's a more common occurence than you'd think Now imagine making that journey without any kind of special suit or magic wormhole or divine being protecting you. The chances of survival are slim and those unlucky few that do reach their destination, well let's just say they're not quite the same people who began their journey. Liam dies during a colision with a truck; to be precise he was the one who drove said truck into a lamppost. The manner of his death aside he is reborn after having his brain squeezed through the proverbial ringer of interdimensional transference, and to add insult to injury is forced into the body of a dungeon core (one of those things responsible for building fantasy type dungeons, labyrinths, mazes .etc). What follows are the adventures of a mentally unstable dungeon core - you have been warned.
8 280The Traitor Games
Welcome to the Traitor Games, and congratulations on your invitation to join as one of the races putting on a show for the galaxy. Your species has been judged as too violent for integration into the Galactic Conglomerate and thus the decision has been made to relegate you to a probationary period during which members of your species will be pitted against each other in games of lies and betrayal. Unfortunate, but the great thing about a probationary period is that it can end! How can we do that; you might be asking. Well, that's easy, if those participants can earn enough points through playing the games, they can potentially buy out your probationary time. Of course, other rewards will also be on offer for success in the games, and if none of your species chooses to be selfless, well then it just goes to show that you wouldn't have been a good fit for us anyway. All those on Earth unlucky enough to not be chosen to become part of one of the most popular shows on Galactic Television, fear not. We will be streaming the various games your race is participating in all across the world. Should we run out of participants, even with our most generous three life system, we will draw more from the population. Good Luck! Noah Landry is one of these participants, he just doesn't know it yet. He blacks out while walking to the local bar McCaffery's, and finds himself, somewhere else. He's wearing clothing he doesn't remember putting on and rocking an absolute banger of a headache. Now he needs to figure out where he is, what's going on, and how he can get out of the Traitor Games. [Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
8 78Barry Buckman and the Interdimensional Beastiary
In the beginning of 2021 I did something possibly stupid, I hired a ghostwriting company to write one of the many ideas going on in my head since I was busy with my job. Unfortunately... They were not the greatest, after the first writer assigned to me left I was stuck with... We'll just call her 'Karen'. Karen didn't want to listen to my feedback on chapters, and turned what was supposed to be a long story about a young guy surviving on an island of supernatural and crazy stuff, and becoming stronger from it, was turned into a not so great romance novel.I plan on releasing another one, probably after this that will be Barry Buckman Redux, which will be me writing it out the way I originally envisioned it.

8 114Virtuous Sons: A Greco Roman Xianxia
Book one now available on Kindle. The saying goes that when a man is born the Fates weave his destiny and swaddle him in it. Then one day the man dies, and the swaddle becomes a shroud. Heaven moves on. It is audacity to question the Fates. Olympus is Olympus. The land of men is the land of men. To transgress that, to cross the line of divinity and scale Olympus Mons? To defy the Fates and cast off their threads? That is hubris. It’s a mark that every philosopher bears plainly on their soul.
