** Quick note before the chapter: I'm going to be using Trigedasleng in up coming chapters so I will type in Trig and then the translation will be in brackets. Example: "Yu gonplei ste odon. [Your fight is over.]"

Let me know if this is okay please! **

I watched as Raven dismisses the group that had volunteered to help fix the ship. It was only a handful of people, and by the look on Raven's face, I could tell she was annoyed by this. I heard her sigh as she turned to face me, just as Clarke walked up to us.

"Hey, you're doing the best you can with what you've got." I told her, trying my best to make her feel even a little better.

"There's so much to do and I get a total of five volunteers to help me fix the ship." She says, placing her hands on her hips.

"It's a start-"

"I can't run this repair alone, Clarke." Raven begins, cutting Clarke off before she can even finish her sentence. "Even if I had complete mobility. Even if Sinclair was still alive." I look to the ground for a moment before looking back up at Raven. "Who the hell am I giving them orders? I'm not the chief."

"Hey," I say, placing my hand on her arm. "You're the one that knows most about this ship. That means, you're in charge. This is something you need to do, Raven." I tell her as she glances at me and nods slightly.

"For what it's worth, there's nobody I trust more to do this than you." Clarke tells her.

"Bellamy will be back soon with the generator, and once he is and we go public, a lot more people will be willing to help." I explain as she sighs before nodding.

Monty had figured out that we could survive the radiation in the Ark, but to do that we needed a hydro generator. Bellamy took a team out to get one from the farm station, the rest of us staying back to help fix the ship.

"Am I interrupting?" I look over Raven's shoulder and see Jaha walking towards us. Raven moves to stand beside me as I watch Jaha glance at the three of us.

"What do you want?" Raven asks as I cross my arms over my chest.

"I was an engineer before I was Chancellor. I supervised the redesign of Sector 5." He informed us as I raised my eyebrow at him.

"And how many people died in Sector 5 from the culling when you sucked the air out of their lungs?" Raven spat as I glanced at her. It was easy to tell Raven still held at grudge for what Jaha done. A lot of us did.

"42. Would you like to know their names?" He answers in a calm voice, causing me to roll my eyes and causing Raven to scoff in disgust.

"Get to the point, Jaha." I say, more harshly than intended to. Jaha moves his eyes to me but I don't look at him for long as Raven begins to walk away.
