The Pirate King
The siege on Mount Weather could not have gone worse than it did. As armies marched on the mountain, a new gas was released. It killed grounders by the hundreds much quicker than the acid fog they had created before. With the armies weakened, the sky people were left vulnerable and exposed. Mount Weather security apprehended all the sky people they could find—and even attacked Camp Jaha for the rest. The leaders were killed first. Clarke, Abby, Kane—they were all strapped down to the table and used for their marrow. Some of the hundred were still alive—trying to end the madness from the inside. As their people fell fast to the drilling and bone marrow extractions, Bellamy Blake and Monty Green worked hard to reverse the fan rotation so they could use the threat of contamination to save those who remained. Even that didn’t quite go according to plan.
Before they could get through the system, the door was blown off the command center and Monty was gunned down. Bellamy was a quicker shot and managed to take out the two guards that had been sent. Determined to save his friends, Bellamy worked to drop the contamination seals—but by the time he managed to figure it out... there were so few left. They wouldn’t listen to him. They wouldn’t let the remaining sky people go—so he was forced to pull the lever and kill every man woman and child in Mount Weather. Out of revenge, those who had already received treatment gunned down the surviving sky people before Bellamy had a chance to think.
Knowing that those who survived would come for blood, Bellamy did the only thing he could. He released the captured grounders from the harvest chamber to save them at least. Outnumbered and afraid—the remaining guards and Cage fled the mountain and those who Bellamy freed were finally able to go home... Among them was the Floukru Captain, Luna, who made sure that Bellamy didn’t stay in the bloodbath he’d created. She took him in as one of her own—as he’d single handedly saved over a hundred of her people.
