It has been 97 years since a nuclear apocalypse killed everyone on Earth leaving the planet simmering in radiation. They're told it'll take another 100 years for the planet to be habitable again. Another 4 space-locked generations before they can make their way back to the planet where it all began. Unfortunately, that doesn't seem to be the case any longer. The year was 2149 CE and the only survivors of the nuclear apocalypse were approximately four hundred inhabitants of twelve national space stations that were luckily in orbit at the time. These separate stations combined to form what was known as The Ark. One hundred juveniles of various crimes were being sent to Earth to see if it survivable. A young man with long, unruly brown hair that reached just above his chin sat hopelessly on the bed inside of his prison cell. His dark brown eyes were lifeless and his already pale skin looked even more colorless. Finn Collins turned eighteen either today or tomorrow. It was difficult to keep track of the days anymore.
The only way to count the days was marking whenever breakfast was served in the morning. Instead of celebrating his special day, Finn felt depressed. He was going to die today. There was no getting around it. Most people categorized Finn as the stereotypical reckless bad boy. He loved being on the verge of finding adrenaline and living in a danger zone. During his childhood, the male became close friends with Raven Reyes. They never dated, though. Still, for her eighteenth birthday, Finn found a way for Raven to have a skywalk. Not following protocol, they accidentally wasted three months of oxygen. Raven would have been floated since she was over eighteen so Finn took the blame, knowing he could be reviewed.
Instead of being floated, the male was one of one hundred delinquents that were sent to the ground in a dropship Once on the ground, he befriended a girl named Clarke Griffin. She was the daughter of a council member. However, they had amazing chemistry together and grew closer at a rapid rate. They went on a few journeys together already from trying to find Mount Weather, rescuing Jasper Jordan, and hiding out together in an abandoned vehicle to avoid the acid fog. Earlier that night, Finn had introduced Clarke to an underground bunker that was built to withstand a nuclear disaster. Well, it did and there were various art supplies for Clarke to use. On top of that, Finn had created a trinket and necklace for Clarke that resembled the two-headed deer they saw in the woods on the first days. Earlier that night, they had made love in the bedroom together and officially started a romantic relationship. Finn had just finished and so did Clarke so now Finn was lying beside of the blonde, one arm gently wrapped around her neck, pulling her in, a smile on his face as he thought about how incredible this felt with Clarke. There were no words to describe it. “That was… amazing…”

he year was 2149 CE, 97 years after a nuclear apocalypse had devastated the surface of Earth. The only known survivors were the residents of twelve space stations in Earth's orbit prior to the war. The space stations banded together to form a single massive station named "The Ark", where about 2,400 people live today. Resources were scarce and all crimes no matter their nature or severity were punishable by death unless the perpetrator was under 18 years of age. The form of execution was being floated and it occurred exactly as it sounded. The perpetrator stood near the outer doors while it opened, being sucked into space. Any criminals under 18 were sent to a special place called the “Sky Box”. Their crimes were reviewed on their eighteenth birthday. One of two outcomes would occur: The juvenile was either forgiven or they were floated. After the Ark's life support systems were found to be critically failing, one hundred juvenile prisoners were declared "expendable" and sent to the surface in a last ditch attempt to determine if Earth was habitable again. They were told it should take another 100 years for the planet to be survivable. It might take another space-locked century before they could make their way back to the planet where it all began. With the Ark systems failing, they hardly had one hundred days remaining, much less one hundred years. Extreme action was taken and an order for this mission was given directly from Chancellor Thelonious Jaha, the elected leader of the Ark.
Among these one hundred juveniles was a twenty-three-year-old male named Bellamy Blake
A young Bellamy Blake watched his mother give birth to his sister. His life had never been the same. The Ark enforced a strict one child law. Octavia, the name Bellamy gave to his sister, was his responsibility to keep safe and love. Since Octavia was an illegal second child, she had to be kept hidden in their room. As a Guard Cadet, he smuggled Octavia from their room to the Unity Day Masquerade Party which celebrated the day that all space stations formed together into the Ark. That was last year. During a solar flare alert, everyone was required to show identification: something Octavia did not have. She was exposed, their mother was executed, and Octavia was imprisoned in lock-up. Bellamy was kicked out of the Guard because of his actions and was demoted to the position of janitor. He was alone. Being unable to see his sister took a toll on Bellamy. Alone and isolated, life was miserable. Each day was spent cleaning up someone else’s mess. Janitors were the lowest of the low on the Ark. Conditions were miserable until Commander Shumway, the same man that called him out at the party, made Bellamy and offer he could not refuse. Kill the Chancellor Thelonious Jaha and Bellamy could go to Earth and protect Octavia. One hundred prisoners were being sent to the ground and his sister was among them.
The male had an olive complexion and thick, dark brown, curly hair and brown eyes. His body was lean and muscular, clearly physically strong. At twenty-three years-old, the next oldest human on the ship was five years his younger. The young man intended to take charge of the group as soon as they reached Earth. His personality was dominant, demanding, and controlling. Bellamy could be a prude sometimes. Plenty of people thought Bellamy was a complete jerk and asshole. They might not be incorrect.
No matter how gruff and tough Bellamy might act, his one weak spot was glaringly clear. Octavia meant the entire world to him and he only wanted the best for her. A softer side to Mr. Blake existed but only Octavia had seen it. Aggression also primarily characterized Bellamy. A natural leader that could make tough decisions, he might have been exactly what the one hundred delinquents needed to survive. His age automatically would present with him an advantage. Besides, living on the Earth was something that intrigued Bellamy as it did everyone else. He was escaping the Ark and protecting his sister. Shumway provided Bellamy with the weapon and shot the Chancellor. Promptly, secret access to the drop ship was granted and Bellamy became a stowaway.
Upon impact, Bellamy became the group's leader. Not everyone agreed with him but most people supported him. They had already dealt with Grounder attacks and surviving acid fog. Life on Earth was not as easy as it seemed before. Bellamy took it upon himself to protect everyone while still trying to save his own ass and prevent the Ark from landing, knowing he would surely be executed if that happened. Currently, he was leading a team out into the forest. They were hunting, looking for fresh water or animals or anything, really. The further they got into the woods, the more paranoid Bellamy became. At one point, they heard a set of twigs snapping so Bellamy flipped around quickly and glanced in that particular direction. "Hey! Show yourself! We know you're there!" He half-shouted as everyone looked towards the rustling bush, unsure if they should expect a Grounder or an animal.
