Marcus was on edge. He watched the monitors all the way down, and hadn't left the room. He knew he needed to rest but until they got communication he wouldn't let himself. He had fallen asleep at a computer for little rests, but for the most part he was here. He'd even let his son's questionable choice in women get updates while waiting.
Thankfully he was mostly alone, when he hear his son voice. Marcus exhaled, his eyes closing as he had to take a moment before he could reach for the radio. He knew others were watching him, but he couldn't keep that famed Kane control right now. Not when he was hearing his son's voice. "Bellamy," He said, taking another breath. "Are you safe? Are you on the ground?" Both questions he already knew the answer too, but for the moment they were all he could manage to ask. He knew Bellamy's heart and stats were strong. He also knew they had reached the ground. However he needed he hear his son say it. Needed to know from him.

Marcus paused at the door, and looked at Bellamy holding Cato. The events leading up to this had left Bellamy a single father. It broke Marcus heart that he was looking at his new found son, struggling with what he never had the chance too. "We'll find a way to bring her back." Kane said, walking in and sitting on the edge of the bed, that Bellamy was sitting on holding his on.
Shortly after the fall of Mount Weather, Bellamy and Kane had figured out they were father and son. Bellamy had also found the grounder that he had become 'friendly' with, and they had gotten 'friendlier'. Echo had become pregnant, but knew if her queen found out there would be a deadly price. So she had been forced to leave her new son here with it's father, and return to Nia.
Looking down at the child, just days old, he smiled. "I regret never knowing you as such." Bellamy had seen his sister like this. The only one of their people to have a sister, and now the first to have a child on the ground.

Marcus was in awe of the world around him. He'd only been on the ground for less then a year, but the culture, the language, the foods, and the people--they fascinated him. They made him want to learn more about them. He was still working out peace with Lexa, but currently he being lead toward the throne room of Azgeda, where he was going to meet with Queen Nia. There he and she would talk about peace.
He knew she might not be in favor of it, but she had agreed to hear him out. That was the first step toward. Toward peace. Enter the room, his eyes found her. Walking forward he gave the customary bow, and then stood up though her warriors seemed to stay knelled. "I am Marcus Kane. I speak for my people." He knew English was a second language to them, but since he didn't know their language he had to use English.

While the stations had landed apart (and they didn't know where others were), there was a few people among the had had some knowledge of planting, and what was safe to eat down here. A lot of this was coming from the kids they had picked up from the woods. Which mean there was a growing amount of food for his people. No longer would they have to starve. While he was worried about his people, the grounders, the kids in the mountain; Marcus gave a small smile when someone brought him a root they had found and fixed. He reached for the smallest slice and smiled as the flavor filled his mouth in a way that nothing on the Ark could have.
Before he could tell them that was good however, Clarke walked up to him and he felt alarm. She was pale and upset. Knowing she'd been hurt recently he took a few long strides to meet her half way, and reached his arm out to rest on her shoulder, using his stronger hand to help balance her in case she was weak or hurt from something. "Clarke?" She began talking about them testing her, he didn't like the reminder, but couldn't do anything about it now. Instead he was more focused on trying to figure out what was happening now. He could help her heal once he knew what made her shaken now.
Looking around Marcus pulled her toward a lesser trafficked area, and used both hands to hold her, one placed on each of her shoulders. "I know. We will get them back." Some how. He assumed she was worried about her friends.

Marcus left Abby sleeping, and walked from the medical bay out to the open grounds around the new city they were building. What was once a fallen space station--or at least the remains of a chunk of one--was going to one day be their city. They had been back from Mount Weather for a week now, and the ones who were able to help build a wall were working. The others were healing or working smaller, though equally needed jobs, around the camp. Abby was struggling with the fact that Clarke had left without a goodbye, but Kane was sending scouts out for the first time and they were be both mapping and looking for her.
He stood there, with his coffee in hand, thinking about how the beans they found on Earth tasted different from the rare beans he'd tasted on the Ark. One of the make-shift nurses that was helping Dr. Jackson out came up to him and whispered something. The news was unsettling. He didn't move from a long time, just staring at nothing and trying to process what this meant. How this changed everything. Turning he walking inside to find his daughter.

Marcus walked into the make shifted medical bay, and straight toward the man he wanted to see. It wasn't like Kane to hesitate or not be direct. His steps were smooth and strong as he came to a rest near the make shift medical bed that the grounder named Lincoln was resting on. He was fascinated by the grounder culture, but knew that they had to remain firm right now so not to loose ground to them. There was plenty to go around--and while yes, they did take it without asking--it hadn't exactly been then first plan.
"Lincoln, I'm Marcus Kane." Since Abby, er Dr. Griffin, had assured him that the man wasn't violent, Kane went ahead and extended the first sign of trust by offering his hand. He wasn't sure if grounders shook hands, but it was a sign older then the Ark itself going back two or three hundred years. He hoped the man would understand it's intent.

Good strong handshake, manners. Packed his bag and didn't leave a mess. He knew so little about his son, but he liked what he saw. Kane answered him before they began walking. "A personal matter. I'd rather discuss it privately." It was all that he could give him until they were alone. He didn't plan to let this be known until they were both ready for it. His public imagine was one he prided himself on. That and there was Callie to consider. He owed it to her to make her aware and apart of the choice he would make too.
The Ark only allowed one child, and he'd missed half the life of his. He was angry, and hurt. Not at Bellamy Blake. At his mother.
As they walked toward the offices, Marcus decided last moment that he didn't want to do this there. He wanted to be able to talk to his son in his own home. However, indecision wasn't something he was known for so he continued to his office. The walk felt as if it took hours rather then moments. Someone even tried to stop him to talk, but he answered with a clipped "Not now." and entered into the room. The office of Marcus Kane had little to make it fancy. There was a desk, and chairs facing it. As per the second highest rank, he had a office that had a small window too, with bookshelves on both sides to frame it. They a some old books from Earth, made before paper books became obsolete. Entering into the room, Marcus gestured to the hanging racks were Bellamy could hang his bag. "A drink?" He offered, knowing Blake could only had water but it was still an offer.

Marcus was a man of strong principal, and control. He liked rules, and he followed them, because rules were what was going to keep these people alive the longest. He knew the Ark was failing, but they had time to figure things out. If they didn't, then they could be facing the end of the human race. However, it was not these burdens that kept him staring at the table before him.
It was shock.
It was the an emotion he wasn't sure to feeling. The control he so liked over himself gone in this moment, as he stood in his office and read the report. Every cadet was blood tested, and it was added to their records. These things were important in case injuries happened. Blood was always tested to look for familial lines to know were they best donation sources were in case injuries happen. All people of the ark was eventually tested this way.
It was the test of a young man from Factory Station that held Marcus' attention--because it flagged his name as a match. Marcus, knowing he had no family, as asked a favor of a doctor; and they ran to blood again. It was a 99% match that he was the father. Which lead to the shock.
Deciding it would seek the son out, before the mother--as he didn't know what to say to her right now. An anger that he'd not known for so long crept under the shock and lost that he felt. Marcus found him in the training rooms reading. He stood just beyond the door for a moment, watching the young man before entering.
His . . . . his son, stood up and greeted him formally. Staring into his face, Marcus saw himself and even his mother there. It left him silent for a moment before he was able to clear his voice and speak. "Bellamy Blake." He offered his hand in greeting. "Marcus Kane." After shaking his hand, Marcus pulled both of his behind his back, trying to think about what to say.
"I'd like a word with you in my office. I know your training is done for the day, but I'd like to talk to you about something if you have the time." There was very few who he gave a choice too when asking them to do something, and even less people who would refuse the vice-chancellor of of the ark. However, he didn't want to begin this with an order. So he was was giving him a choice.

"--you are all but that little dots grandpa. Maybe at one point you will be just that. Grandpa to that little one." He froze at that and looked at her with surprise, not sure how to react to that. It wasn't an unwelcome thought, but he had not thought that far into his and Abby's relationship yet. He loved her, but he knew that she would need time to adjust to everything before he pressed for more, and even if he wanted too they always seemed to be dealing with life-and-death situations!
"I wouldn't mind it - having you as stepfather." Her words warmed him, and he found himself smiling at her, knowing that he had always wanted a child but had never been able to do it. He would welcome her in that role too, even without Abby as his wife. "I umm," he tried to think of what to say, "That would," but words failed him for once in his life. "I can't speak of what might happen between you're mother and me, but I hope you know that I would be honored to take any role in your life." He said, reaching out to brush her hair back, as a father might. It would be easy for her to hate him. He had not been the one to float her father, but he had not stopped it. Yet she was welcoming him into this role, and he was humbled.

Marcus felt a thrill of excitement at officially meeting the newest addition to the Griffin family. It had been so long since he had felt real excitement for anything that wasn't attached to a bit of dread that the feeling was almost alein too him. He had stopped by to check on Clarke a few times, but had only looked at her son while Clarke was sleeping. He even planned to come and get her himself to walk her to her quarters. Space was limited, so he had opened his room to her and her mother, knowing it might be easier with a baby.
He knocked on the door and Clarke soon opened it, and Marcus greeted her with a welcoming smile. "Clarke," he said in return to the hello she gave him. "I thought I would come and offer my help in getting to your room." He could carry something heavy, or just give her a friend with walk with if she needed. He could even go and get her mother if she rather walk with Abby. "And to meet your son!" Which he was looking forward to seeing, and helping him grow!
He had not spoken of it to many but he had always wanted a child of his own. Though his choice of putting his career before his personal life had cost him that.

Season 5 is coming next year, but there are already little bits of information out there! I am just starting us a thread about what what we find, and for us to talk about rumors!
The first one I am talking about comes from an interview with Executive producer Jason Rothenberg hinted to TVLine that the ship is jam-packed with angry prisoners.
So Clarke told Maddi to "get the guns" when the ship landed! Which means she is on the defensive right away!
And some more information about them that Clarke Griffin showed me! [LINK] It's Eric talking to Abby about the prisoners! It was just faded out and we were focused on Raven! Eric: Abby, listen to this. According to the record, Becca first developed what we know as Nightblood for the Eligius Mining Company.
Abby: Mining?
Eric: Long duration space missions. Criminals were put into hypersleep and given Nightblood to protect against solar radiation.
Also here is some information on Maddie: "She's a Nightblood named Maddie, and she's been with her for five years. They are, for all intents and purposes, bonded the way a mother and daughter would be. So Clarke loves her, and her decision-making process has changed, just as it does for anyone who has a child. ... We'll tell the story of how they came together in Season 5, and how they've been surviving as the only two people on the planet — until that ship shows up," the EP teased.

Here is Clarke's list of people that were going to be sealed in the Ark but ended up in the bunker! Some names aren't on here that have been confirmed for the new season! Maybe they switched some out after people died through out the season!

Marcus knew that there was much they needed to talk about, but right now he only planned reply to the the last few things she said, because until she told her mother, he didn't want to press her into making any choices about the future. Right now what he could help with her, was accepting the situation that she found herself in. He could help put her mind at ease, and then they could all move forward together.
"There are many things in life that we don't expect." He reminded her, lowering his arms to rest them on the edge of the desk that he was sitting on. "Ever since you landed on Earth, you've had to be someone. That moment you went from being a kid locked up for knowing too much, to one of the leaders of 100 rowdy kids being hunted. It wasn't easy, but you did. Right now you have a chance to be someone with less on her shoulders. To only worry for one, and not so many. I know it's scary, but you have your mother to help you. You have me too if you need anything." Kane thought about how he would have loved to be a father, once. It was one of his regrets for putting work first for so long. There was a few who he had taken under his wing over the years, and thought of as surrogates in a way, but he knew he wasn't their father. Lilly, Clarke, and especially the Blakes. He had taken their mother from them, after all.

Marcus awaited her answer and he could tell that she was still holding something back. Clarke did that a lot, where she would try to hold back as much as she could and deal with things herself. He didn't want her doing that as a mother, as she was still just a kid in many ways--even though she had not been a kids for a while now. Not since they had locked her up to keep her silent. "This kid might turn political." He found himself frowning at that, not quite understanding what it meant. "It's Roan."
Marcus was glad he was mostly sitting, because that might have made him unsteady on his feet. Roan. The king of Azgeda, or was until recently. The eldest son of Nia, the queen who had killed many of their people. Lifting his hand, he rubbed over the bottom part of his face while trying to think about what this means. "Who knows about you two?" He asked, trying to see if it was possible to keep this quite until they had the chance to make better choices. If Azgeda wanted to claim the baby, then it would up stir a lot within their ranks. However, they were one people now. An heir might mean less. "For now, I think the less people to know is better. We need to see how everyone settles here before deciding on our best course of action." Because to keep the baby alive it might be better to not tell anyone, and claim the baby was completely Skikru.
