Chereads / The 100: Sky King / Chapter 2 - Damon Damos

Chapter 2 - Damon Damos

Jaha watched as the pod door swung open and a cold misty air covered his vision before out walked a six-foot boy wearing black leather pants that hardly fit around his legs the size of boulders and a single fur coat that hardly covered his chiseled body that looked to be made of solid rock.

The boy's long brown hair was tied into a small bun on the back of his head while hair covered both sides of his head and reached to below his jaw that was covered in a thick brown beard with two knotted braids in his beard tied together using a few metal pieces.

His skin was tanned, and a few scars could be seen going across his massive chest while his eyes glowed bright blue.

Jaha would have thought the person an absolute weapon if he wasn't merely a boy.

"It's just a boy," Jaha whispered as the hope on everyone's faces seemed to disappear as they glanced at the boy who looked to be 18 years old or so.

"And you're just a man." The young man's clear and strong voice sounded out with mockery and an arrogance he had never heard before.

"The one and only Thelonius Jaha!" The young boy said with mock exaggeration as he was handed a leather sword sheath by the droid along with a leather belt.

The young man adorned the sword sheathe on his back and the leather belt around his massive muscular waist that carried a long black dagger.

"What do you know about me?" 

"Who are you? What are you doing here?"

"Why would they put a boy in here?"

Questions were fired off one after another as everyone grew panicked and confused. They thought this room would bring hope, but it only brought a single boy along with a lot of questions and confusion.

"What do I know about you? Hahaha!" The young man laughed before calming back down and looking at the panicked faces before him.

"The better question is what do I not know about you." The young man walked toward Jaha and patted him on the shoulder causing Marcus to pull out his pistol and aim it at the boy in case he tried to hurt the chancellor.

Swoosh

The droids behind him instantly raised their AKMs that had some kind of glowing orange sights on them and pointed them at Marcus's head with quick precision and no hesitation.

"Calm down Marcus. I wouldn't hurt good Ol Thelonious here." The boy said with a calm arrogance before looking at the two droids behind him.

"Don't mind Thing 1 and Thing 2 they are a little overprotective." The young man waved his arm and the droids behind him lowered their weapons allowing everyone to take a sigh of relief.

"Who are you and how do you know us?" Marcus said while keeping his pistol aimed at the boy.

"I am Damon Damos, but you can just call me Damon. I know you all Marcus because I have seen the future." the boy put his two hands up and shrugged nonchalantly.

"Impossible," Abby said with annoyance.

"Ah, Abby Griffin. The one who got her husband and the father of her child killed because she wouldn't let him spread the news of the Ark dying." 

Abby's face went pale, and everyone looked at each other with worried faces. 

No one could have known any of that and not someone locked away in some cryo pod they didn't even know about.

"Yes, I know you all better than you even know yourselves. Every single decision you would have made in the future, every emotion, I know it all." Damon said with a smirking face before his smirk disappeared and a look of seriousness took over.

"I am here to protect the people of the ark. My people." Damon said with a firm voice.

"None of you know what is coming and none of you are as capable as me. I will do anything to protect every single person of the ark. 

I am willing to make the hard decisions as long as my people live."

"You said it yourself the ark is dying so how do you expect the people of the ark to survive?" Abby asked.

"The ground is survivable," Damon said causing everyone to look at each other.

"Is it true?" Jaha asked still not believing that this boy could see the future.

"Jaha, you know that before the 100 got sent to the ground your boy got locked up on purpose so that he could go down with Clarke."

"He did!?" Jaha asked in curiosity

"Only to get murdered by one of the 100 because his father had floated their parents." 

"Lies!" Kane Shouted.

"Marcus did you know that Diana here will set off a bomb on Unity Day killing 1,500 innocent people along with your poor old mother." Damon walked over to Marcus whose face was full of shock.

"She cried in your arms as you said the traveler blessing to her right before she died," Damon whispered to Marcus as he slowly took the pistol from his shaking hands.

"Enough lies!" Diana screamed with a face full of nervousness. How could someone know of her plans before they were even finalized? She hadn't told anyone yet.

Bang!

A shot rang out and everyone watched in shock as Diana Sydney's brains were painted across the metal wall and her body dropped to the floor with a look of shock still on her face.
