“ Anyway what of the ark, what did they say?” I asked looking at them as I hadn't been with them alongside O and Bellamy when they were chatting with the Arkers.

“ Aside from letting us know that they had just killed 320 people for nothing, nothing much just questions about the ground and our situation that's all.” Came Ravens answer.

“ And their plans for coming to earth?” I asked.

“ For now they said that they'd send trained personnel to help combat the grounder treat, so all in all they are gonna be bringing guns.” Raven said.

” So after all this, they are just gonna come down and take control after we did all the hard work!.” Said a bitter Octavia realising what them bringing the ark guards meant.

“ No, I won't allow that.” I said causing Bellamy to give me a small smile as he already knew of my stance.

“ Wait, what do you mean you won't?” Asked Clarke looking at me with a frown.

“ Exactly that Clarke, we are not gonna just fall in line like good little children and let them take what we have built. I can't and won't allow that.” I told her making her frown.

“ As far as I'm concerned, they exiled and sent us to die here, as nothing more then guinea pigs to see whether it was survivable for them and not only did we show them that we are alive and thriving but we've created home for ourselves.”

“ A home where we won't be babied and treated like children the minute those cowards back in the ark come down here, we did our job and told informed them that the ground is habitable and now we need to be thinking of what we should be doing in order to strengthen and increase our fighting power.” I said trying to sell the idea of us branching off and becoming a kingdom of our own.

“ I...can see where you're coming from but what will stop them from simply coming down here and taking over, some of the 100 are their children after all they won't just let us go like that.” Clarke said trying to understand me from the way she stared at me.

“ Guns, we need guns of course.” I told them with a grin.

“ Guns?... wouldn't the ark be the ones bringing the guns and technology needed though?” Asked Bellamy looking more and more interested.

“ Not exactly, I managed to find something while on my trips into the woods, a military depot that by its structure managed to survive the nuclear bombing, I did not go in to look into it though due to it having been already night and I was hauling in some deers which would have attracted predators at the time.” I told them ripping off the knowledge I knew from the first season of the series and I have already gotten the location of the depot already, [Plant Control] and my senses mixed in is an overpowered detection combo.

“ With the guns we will have an edge against the grounders.” I told them finishing my pitch.

“ Even if the depot has guns what makes you think that the remaining 100 will stay under you when they can simply go with the Arkers and gain a modicum of protection?” Asked Raven finally pitching in.

“ I don't, I just have faith.” ‘ And also because I've been indoctrinating them into loyal and useful soldiers with my teaching skill.’

“ Faith gets people killed.” Said Raven staring pointedly at me.

“ And yet you used an equivalent of a mortal cofin to enter earth's atmosphere with faith that you'd survive, we aren't do different in that regard here raven.” I retorted back at her with a grin.

“ I did that so I could see my boyfriend again!” She said missing Clarke wincing.

“ And I'm doing this so that I can have a home for all of us.” ‘ And also because I don't want to take orders from kane.’ I thought.

“ Fine, let's just wait for while and revisit this conversation at a later date, preferably when we have guns and we are sure we can survive by ourself against whatever is out there, okay?” Came Bellamy as surprisingly the voice of reason here.

“ Agreed.” I said and the others followed.

“ Good then, let's get back to work.” I said standing.

The meeting came to an end and we all agreed and even made the announcement of the mandatory training, it wasn't well received at first but after I asked them what they would do when there was nothing but them and a grounder infront of them they all shut up.

So tommorow noon would be when their training started.

And as for now, I was currently just piling up logs, rope and metal sheets stripped from the drop shit about to start my project of making a fucking forge.

I would need a working furnace, an anvil and some casts and make a hammer alongside everything else.

By my estimates and my skill level I would be done within 2 days.

And tommorow I was gonna go into the forest to hunt and hopefully level up and max out crafting in hopes that I can cut that time by a good percentage.

‘ I wonder what would happen if I forged armor or weopons while bathing them in mana in the process....’ Came an idea and immediately pinned it for later experimentation.

But for now I began by digging holes for the frame of the house and then grabbed some wooden beams and put them up.

‘ Well this will take some time...’ I thought with a sigh.
