All she said was criminals. Not in a question for but more as a statement. Anna nodded to her anyway. They were criminals in more ways that one. Except, as far as she knew, Octavia and herself. It was a shame that Octavia was here in the first place. Just because her mother didn't want to...kill a baby. And her. She had no where to begin with her right now. She didn't even want to think about it. Tossing the memories aside, she turned her attention back to the woman as she started to speak.
She smiled and nodded at what she said. They did have a lot of what it took. They knew how to survive and what to do. They had first hand experience for heavens sake. Perhaps that's why they had sent the delinquents down here in the first place? Because they knew that if anyone could survive it'd be them? She hadn't a clue nor did she care that this point. She had freedom instead of having to stay in a tiny cell for another year.
The tips for the upcoming winter were helpful. She had followed Isa to the tree's. When she said bark she made a face. It seemed gross but if it helped them live, then count her in. She nodded at the tips that she gave her. Thank you...? I actually don't think that I know your name. Seeing as we are friendly I guess I could give you mine. I'm Annika or you can call me Anna. I promise I wont give anyone your name. She said, sticking her hand out for a shake.

She grunted in amusement at what she said first. She had yet to see how they worked. Well, when they worked that was. The bullet powder was so old that it didn't even shoot half the time. That, though, she would not inform the woman. She watched as the woman layed the bow across her lap. Ah so she was trusting her now? That was a good start.
When she asked why there were there in other words, she just nodded. There were no ways for her to cut it short. She just needed to give her the story. Expendable? Yes that would be a good wording choice for it. Half of us are here for stealing because our families were to poor to feed their-selves. Some are here for murder. Some, like me, are here because we were framed for things we did. Or, like one of our own, are here for just being born because the Ark had a law one child per couple. She said. She could get into more detail but it would more than likely confuse her with the way their society had worked in space.
She let out a short life when she said the others may actually take up on her offer. No doubt that would be true. When she spoke of adapting, she nodded. It was mostly true. As she also wished that she could make it. She had read about snow. But she wanted to see it for herself.

She shrugged at what she said. Anna got up and moved to a tree next to her. Then she'd sit down and lean back against it. It was more comfortable than having to keep yourself straight the whole time. Your probably right. But instead of throwing rocks they'd probably throw more...deadly items. And they'd be aimed for your face. This was more likely truer than her act with the rock. She could have thrown a knife. But one: She didn't want to kill her and two: She needed her knives.
As for the sky thing, the people who told her that were quite right. Yea. It's called a space station. Our ancestors had created it for the purpose of us being able to survive. And they decided to toss 100 of us down here like lab rats to see if it was livable here. She spoke. She didn't know the reasoning for it, but it had to do with something going wrong in the Ark. Or else they wouldn't have done that. Plus, the people who got floated for stealing would have been pardoned. Something was really going wrong up there. She only hoped that they could fix it, even if it was their fault she was here in the first place.
When she said some didn't think they were worth fighting, Anna rolled her eyes. We may be new and unfamiliar with the lands, but at least we have an half assed idea what we're doing. Whoever told you that tell them to bite me. She said. She was getting offensive about what they thought of the Arkers. They didn't know what it was like up there. At least they had siblings and what not. The only one here who did was Bellamy. And that was why she was one of the 100 here. We can adapt faster hopefully. I've never seen snow, but I hope to live through this war to see it. She said, looking up at the sky in awe.

She had acted in mere seconds. She had no clue what she was going to think after it. The shock over the fact that she had killed someone made her numb. When she felt the hand on her shoulder, she ignored it. When the knife was slipped out of her hands, she let him take it. She just stared, horror washing over her over what she had done. But, she needed to. She had needed to actually. If she hadn't, neither of the would have been there. She looked up at Bellamy.
She nodded at his words, not speaking. She'd slowly stand up and go to wrap her arm under his to help support him while he walked. Well, that is if he wanted the help. She didn't speak, just stared. Her body was shaking from the little bit of adrenaline that was left in her system. Of all things that could have happened, she had not expected killing someone would be on the list. The people on the Ark had thought she had killed her parents. But it was obvious she couldn't even cope with killing someone that was trying to kill her and someone else.

When she spoke of them not being savages she shrugged. They could be over half the time. Or perhaps that was just for food? When she said cruel and vicious, that was something Anna could agree with. THey did things that Anna herself did not agree with. Hang people. Float them when they lived on the Ark for stupid crimes. She could agree with this woman about that for certain.
When she said they never thought of them killing for sport, she gave a laugh. Oh some of us do though. You just haven't had the honor of seeing it yet. This woman hadn't been around them for long enough. If she had and she saw what they did, she would agree with Anna. It was usually with animals and it was harsh sometimes but it could easily go to becoming the Grounders too. However, that didn't mean that the grounders wouldn't put up a fight. As for ignorance, the human race was ignorant to a certain extent.
Well, you could see what it's like on our side. So you'd then have an idea from both sides. It would give you more of an idea why and what is going on during the war. She'd probably hear of all the food they needed and how they were starving almost. When she said that she didn't know if they were a threat, Anna thought that hopefully she would deem them a non-threat. They could barely survive on their own.

She had stepped on his injured foot. Before the Grounder had attacked them, she looked back at him. But then, he pushed her to the other side. She landed on her stomach and then she looked back. The grounder had tackled him in more ways than one. She pulled herself up, feet slipping in the mud. The grounder got a cheat shot, grabbing Bell by his injured foot. She stared down at the grounder and pulled out her knife. She didn't care if it was a coward move to kill from the behind, the grounder was going to kill Bellamy if she didn't do something.
She stared for a moment. Then she just full out ran. She wasn't able to get enough speed as it was muddy and slippery, but she had the element of surprise on her hand. She'd tackle the Grounder from his left side with all of her weight, throwing him off of Bellamy and her going with him. Landing on her side, she'd quickly scramble to her feet and then stab the grounder in the chest. His eyes would stare at her for a moment in shock until the life died out of them. Then she'd shakily pull back and land on her rump, staring at the dead grounder.

She smiled when she saw her point of view. Finally! Some words were getting through that head of hers. She stretched her arms over her head and then popped her neck. She was starting to get cramped. That probably meant that she should move around, however this was her spot at the moment. She had to see what the lady was gonna say or do. Hopefully it would go with niceness and whatever.
Whens he said that she only had two people that she cared about, Anna looked at her with sadness. But before she could look back at Anna, she covered it over with curiosity. When she asked the last part, she gave a small shrug. Well, maybe the friendship could prove that not all of us Arkers are savages. Maybe some, but theres some of us like me who wouldn't just kill you for the sport of it. ANd eventually the Arker would also see that. It was taking some serious thinking about that. Anna, personally, wouldn't kill anyone unless they provoked it. And, in all cases, the Arkers had provoked the war that was going on. They had landed on grounder territory however, the Grounders were the ones who made it worse.
Even if a fight was bound to happen we could more than likely avoid each other. Though hopefully that time will never come. She said, giving the woman a slight shrug.

She listened to her. So the ones they were allied with were not friends? How did this woman get through life with all the stuff she put up with? She more than likely couldn't deal with it half the time? Even the strongest had to break at some point. Perhaps she had already broken but was still strong? She had no idea but she was still insistent on what she was doing. If this woman had no friends, well Anna would be the first and she was going to make sure of it. Well...try to at least.
At least you'll have good memories to look back on. Good times and fun. And when you have no one else to look to you'd have that friend. Does it make at least a little bit of sense? She said. She rolled her eyes mentally. If she could, she'd just slap with girl silly. She watched as pain flashed across her eyes and Anna softened up momentarily. So someone she had cared for must have died from the cold? She didn't know. But that was things she was talking about. You shouldn't have to deal with things like that by yourself.
Of course it could. But human beings are social creatures. You must have some sort of friend. Heck, you could just use me to throw insults at. Not promising that I won't throw any back at you however. She gave a half grin to the chick. And at least you'd know that someone had cared enough to be there at your side. She said. She was tired of arguing about this. She raised her eyes at the grounder, trying to get her to see her logic, no matter how stupid she may think it was.

She nodded at what the chick said about people in times of war. Oh she couldn't be any more correct. She watched carefully as she moved and relaxed against a tree. Well, that was a good start right? Maybe, though the woman probably was still ready to kill her at any given moment. Her eyes would roam the area before landing back on the woman before her. For once, the woman wasn't watching her! Annika was cautious to not exactly move, unsure if she was trying feign it or something. But then she looked back and she wasn't dead so that was all good. It seemed everyone of her thoughts revolved around being dead. Lovely right?
When she spoke of a friendship between them, she rolled her eyes. Just because your friends with your allies enemies doesn't mean you cant be friends! And if it didn't? We could be potential allies in the end. And if you think friendship is a weakness in the end, your just gonna go psychotic and die all alone.[/font] She said, shrugging a little. She would push this chick till she agreed however.

She lowered her bow and Anna let out a breath. She kept it notched, but it was better than having it pointed at her face. She'd give her a small smile and, while keeping the hands in the air, she go to sit on a stump. When she said that she could alert her people, she shrugged. She lowered her hands to her sides. Well I haven't been shot yet and if your not killing me, I don't see why they should kill you. She'd explain to her. For sure if they knew that the grounder was there, they would kill her. She just had to make sure that she wouldn't use any int-ell against them.
When she asked about friends, she shrugged again. First step to fixing a war is befriending the ones apart of it. Anyway I don't have many either. She said to the Grounder. She acted like it was a crime or something. Why would it be? Like they were all human and what not. It was nature to be friends right? Or was she wrong? Honestly she had no clue with grounders these days. She had no clue about anything these days actually. The world seemed to be upside down.

He was quick to get out and her the same to follow. She stepped out and then gasped from the instant cold. That was incredibly expected but unexpected. She'd pull her jacket tighter around her neck and then run to catch up to Bellamy. She watched where she put her feet, eventually getting into the jig of things. There was so much mud that she stumbled a lot. The mud would suck at her feet, making swoosh noises when she pulled it out. Once or twice she even stumbled. And then that was when she saw Bell fall into a trap.
She was quick to get to him, stumbling to get to him before he fell into the hole completely. However that didn't happen. He had grabbed a tree. By the time she reached him, her hands were covered in mud from where she had fallen and tried to get herself back up. She made sure to avoid the hole that he had fallen in and stopped next to him, doubled over on her knee's to catch her breath. She'd then look up at him, the rain running into her eyes annoying her.
Bellamy! Are you okay? She said, reaching for his arm without realizing it. If he died, she most certainly would too seeing as with the rain she had no clue where they were. But he seemed to while he was running. But then she heard a huge umph and she stumbled back straight into Bellamy, accidentally stepping on one of his feet. She turned to see the grounder they had ran off in front of them. He had a smirk on his face. She assumed that he knew that Bellamy was out of commission at the moment. She grabbed her knife and move protectively in front of him. If the grounder thought he had easy picking, he was wrong.

The woman never let one eye leave her. Annika was surprised if anything. She stared at the woman too, showing her that she wasn't scared of her. Though perhaps it would've been smarter to be one of those girl whom would take off running at the sight of danger. She didn't necessarily do that, but she would find a way to warn the others before she was dead in the first place. But this woman was unnerving almost. She never blinked it seemed. Unless she did, just Anna didn't see it.
When she spoke and remained calm and cool, she raised her eyes. She said surveillance and crap. Well that was interesting. Know faces of who she would most likely end up killing in the end? Just lovely eh? However, the woman still didn't lower her arm. Anna rolled her eyes and put her knife in its sheath. It may be put up, but she'd easily be able to grab it if the occasion asked for it. For now, she was showing the grounder that she wasn't dangerous. Okay. Okay. But dude. Could ya put that thing down? Do I really look like I'm going to kill you at this point? All I want is to be friends. She said calmly. She decided that she'd try to act nice and what ever. She put her hands up slowly for emphasis.

She had eventually been lulled to sleep. Even when she hadn't wanted to. The rain and warmth mixed with hearing other noises such as Bellamy's steady breathing had helped her. Now, when he was getting up, she groaned. She would then have her hand going over her eyes and she'd glare at him. But then she saw the rain at the door and she moaned. This was going to be just great. She was now dry and what did she have to expect in the next hour? More wetness. She moved and crawled over to her jacket and then just collapsed on it.
It's too early for a shower. She told him through her hand that was covering her face. If there was one thing that was now obvious, it was that Anna was not a morning person. But then again they needed to get back to camp. She then got up and put her knife back onto her belt. She looked over at him sleepily. That would be changing in the next five minutes for certain. Okay lets go! She said, trying to get herself hyped up for the adventure. She'd put her jacket over her shoulder and then look over at Bellamy.

She'd continue to watch the blonde woman. She wondered why she was there other than being a spy. There had to be a reason for it. Sure, they were in a war or whatever, but she should've thought better than to stroll up and spy. Anyone could blast her head off. That made a snort come out of her mouth. It was a miracle that they even got away with stalking them. Well, that was so in her opinion. Her being very opinionated of course.
When she spoke, she nodded. Yea your probably right. She said, shrugging. She came out from behind her tree. Sorry for trying to hit ya with a rock. She said, eyeing the bow and arrow cautiously. She had no clue of the chick was gonna like poke her in the eye or anything. That was something that she would like to avoid however. She had her knife ready to go flying at any moment if the woman tried to hit her. But she hoped it wouldn't come to that. Hopefully, she could befriend her? Maybe? She doubted that but it was worth a try.
And I bet i could get at least a scratch on you before i died. She said, having her knife thrown in the air and caught expertly. However, it didn't stop the scratch that came on her unprotected palms. But that wasn't noticeable at the moment. I'm armed anyway. She said, pointing to the knife with her eyes. Anyway. Why else are you here other than to stalk us? She asked the woman.

The woman had ducked behind the tree. Well, Ann hadn't been aiming for her head or anything. Just somewhere near it. She figured the woman couldn't tell the projection line it was aiming at. After the rock it the tree, Ann went and moved behind one that was next to her. Grounders were unpredictable. She had no clue of this person was going to hit her or shoot her or what. Her pressed her thin body against the tree, her knife next to her. When she heard the woman speak, she peaked her head over a little to see her having a bow aimed at her.
Why was she throwing rocks at strangers? Because she didn't want to ruin her knives duh? Like was it not common sense to the grounder. Weapons were hard to come by. Especially the ones that you wanted or preferred. And she preferred knives as that was. It's only the ones that are stalking us. She called to her, a hint of suspicion coloring her voice. When she asked if she was alone, Anna thought that she was probably going to like hang her up and kill her. She wouldn't put it past her that was for sure. However, she could and would fight to her death in the first place. Are you alone? She'd say, answering the woman's question with one of her own.
