So after walking out of the dropship where I had found a dozen people listening in and murmuring by themselves I then gave to Miller the new batch of Growth Potion after pocketing a fair amount if it for myself.

After that I walked into my crafthouse, luckily it seemed that Raven had already extracted some hydrazine so I could go to work immediately.

‘ Ah fuck...back to work?’ Were my thoughts as I sat down between the hydrazine and gunpowder and all the shells for them.

And with no fanfare I got to work.

—5 Hours Later | 14:35—

Just as I completed the 167th landmine I saw that it was time to meet the court.

So as I put the last scrap landsmine in my inventory for safekeeping I walked out.

It took me only 10 minutes to get to the meeting room, I had talked to some guards and workers on my way which took up some of my time.

And just as I was walking into the meeting cabin I heard Ravens voice on the other side.

“....we can't just let him kill Finn! You all can't just be willing to let–” She immediately paused as I walked into the room.

With no fanfare I walked into my seat and nodded to the others.

“ Okay then, since we're all here.” I said looking at raven.“ We can begin.”

“ Today as all of you know, we met with the leader of the grounders and after some talk we have managed to negotiate a peace treaty, this treaty isn't in effect yet though and hopefully by tommorow night it will.” I said.

“ What do they want for peace?” Asked Bellamy with a curious look.

“ They want the fruit.” I muttered and immediately Bellamy and Octavia frowned.

“ And how did they know we even had it in the first place?” O asked confused.

“ Finn told them.” I told them and immediately the Blake siblings looked at Raven.

“ As all of you know, I had specifically told all of those in the court to keep the matter of the fruits a secret for now at least until we obtained a good grasp of their worth and use.” I said out loud my eyes glaring into Raven.

“ So I'll ask this just for formalities sake, who told Finn about the fruit?.” I asked my eyes never wavering from Raven.

There was a soft silence in the room for a couple moments before Raven with her eyes glossy spoke up.

“ Y-you know who it was, so get this over with!” She growled out staring back at me defiantly.

Nodding at her I stopped staring at her and looked around the table.

“ I opened this court in hopes that you all would help and allow me to lead all of you into a better future, I bring up everything to the court partaining the camp and of decisions that need to be made because I trust you all.” I told them my frown never leaving my face.

“ So to find that not only has my trust been broken by one of you and not just by anyone but by someone that I thought was my friend is a hard to swallow.” I said, my expression shifting to one of sadness before masking it quickly.

“ But what is done is done, even if it has put the enemy into a higher position of negotiation I am willing to forgive you.” I said amicably causing the others to look suprised at me.

“ Y-you are?” Asked raven clearly disbelieving.

“ I am, but your betrayal will have its consequences raven.” I told her before taking off the bag that I brought into the room.

In there I took out a whip, just like the one I used on Charllote. This one though was made out of jagged vines with thorns, a creation of mine using [Plant Control].

“ I will give you a choice here raven.” I said staring at her.

“ Tommorow will go in two ways.” I told her breathing in.

“ Finn could be put in a public trial which to be honest will have him killed from the decisions made or you can deliver the punishment.”I told her.

“ .....you can't be serious?!.” Shouted out raven tears dropping from her cheeks.“ You want me to whip him?!”

“ Yes, that will be your punishment.” I told her my voice betraying to no emotion.

“ And if I refuse?!” She asked anger in her voice.

“ Your position in the court will be stripped, you will hold no sway over any further proceedings of the camp in the future and your boyfriend will be killed per the people's judgement and trust me, they will want his blood if I tell them that little old Finn might've just presented their heads on a silver platter to the grounders.” I told her without effort.

She stared at me as if unbelieving of my words.

“ Y-you can't be serious....and you all?!” She said to me before looking at the other's.

Bellamy stared back at her and answered.“ Finn needs to be taught a lesson.”

“ So he just die?!?” Raven shouted angry.

“ Oh please, Ezekiel has given you a way out of all of this that will not end with Finn's death, yours and Finn's punishment is one of the same.” Bellamy retorted.

Raven hearing Bellamy's reason looked unbelieving before looking at Octavia.

“ Hey, don't look at me. Finn is getting what he deserves.” She said with a scoff.

“ And you Clarke....are you just gonna let them do this to him?” Raven asked, her words filled with hope and sorrow.

Clarke looked at Raven and then at my eyes before breathing in and looked back at Raven.

“ I'm sorry raven, I can't side with Finn this time, not when he's in the wrong here.” Clarke said with a sigh.

“ Unbelievable.... you're all unbelievable! He was your friend and you're throwing him away just like that?!” She shouted just trying to find any reason to stop this.

“ Raven, stop. You have two choices, by morning up I hope to have your answer.” I told her.

“ I am being lenient towards you for the last time.” I said causing her to scoff in between tears.

“ And you call threatening my boyfriend's life lenient?” She asked frowning at me.

“ Raven, if it was by me Finn would be dead by now. I'm giving you a chance to repent for your transgressions over his.” I told her pushing the whip towards her.

She looked at me heatedly grinding her teeth before grabbing the whip and walking out.

To this I mentally grinned.

‘ Phase one complete...’
