Chereads / The 100: Sky King / Chapter 20 - On the ground

Chapter 20 - On the ground

[I will just go ahead and say Octavia is in the harem now since she was winning by a massive longshot.]

------------------------

"Wooo!" The 100 rushed forward wooing and hollering as they felt all the sensations of being on earth for the first time.

"Hahaha!" Damon smiled and laughed as he stepped on earth and crouched down to feel the grass on his hands.

Even he missed the Earth more than ever.

"The VR can't compare to the real thing," Damon whispered before standing up and looking at Clarke and Bellamy who were smiling.

No matter how good the VR tech was the real thing was much better.

"Gather your squads. Make sure we have two squads on perimeter watch 24/7, have them take rotations while the others start building the walls and hunting for food." 

"Yes sir." They nodded before going to get their squads together and designate tasks.

"Where is Raven?" Damon asked out loud

"Right here," Raven said as she came up behind him.

"Set up the buildable radio and make contact with the ark. Tell them we've landed safely." Damon said to Raven as the Ark had given them a buildable radio on his request since he knew the dropship's communication system would be fried during landing, and he was right.

"On it," Raven said before running off to do what she was best at.

"Monty, Jasper, get the command tents set up for meetings," Damon said to the two friends.

"Darn, I was going to start perfecting my moonshine recipe now that I have some new ingredients to work with," Jasper said with a smile as he thought about his next moonshine recipe 

"Haha! You'll have time later and I look forward to tasting it." Damon pat Jasper on the back almost sending the poor boy flying as he stumbled out of the dropship.

"Miller!" Damon yelled making one of the boys who had been running around come over to him.

"Gather your scout team and get geared up. Search a hundred meters in every direction. We don't want any surprises." Damon ordered as he didn't know if anything from the show had changed and he didn't want to be caught off guard.

"Yes sir," Miller said, and he was about to leave when Damon stopped him.

"Oh, and make sure to be on guard. The grounders already know we're here, but I don't expect the grounder scout to be here until tomorrow night." Damon warned and Miller nodded firmly.

They had brought more than enough weapons of all kinds from his stash on Elysium along with hundreds of bags of IV nutrients so they weren't fucked on food in case the Grounders tried to blockade them and stop them from hunting food.

Every scout and every perimeter guard was allowed to carry one pistol side arm that Marcus had allowed them to bring to the ground.

They also had a few rifles on the dropship, but they weren't to be used unless necessary. They would mostly stick with cold weapons and that wasn't a problem for any of them after the years of training.

The guns were just in case things went to shit and they were surrounded by hundreds of grounders.

Damon took one more glance around and saw everyone getting to work so he walked back into the dropship before climbing to the third floor where he saw his two best buddies.

"Thing 1, Thing 2 how are y'all doing up here!" Damon said with a smile as he saw his two droids sitting down looking bored.

"Bored sir," Thing 1 said flatly, and Thing 2 nodded in agreement.

"Can't have you guys scaring off the grounders just yet but don't worry, you'll be out of here soon enough," Damon said

"Yes sir." Thing 1 and 2 nodded.

Hearing someone climbing the ladder Damon turned around to see Raven peak her head through the hatch.

"If you're done talking to your robot things the ark is on the line," Raven smirked at him before climbing down the ladder.

"Hey, don't listen to her. She's just jealous that she doesn't have two badass friends like you guys." Damon said to the droids before climbing down the ladder.

"How's the connection," Damon said to Raven who was sitting at a makeshift desk with a radio in front of her.

"Shit," Raven said as she handed the microphone to him and pushed a button.

"Thelonious you there? It's Damon." Damon said into the microphone before he heard a static voice a second later.

"Damon it's Sinclair, Jaha is busy addressing the citizens and informing them of the dropship landing," Sinclair said as he heard Abby screaming in the background making him chuckle.

"Alright, we are busy setting up camp right now, so we'll make contact again tomorrow," Damon said

"Understood. Good luck down there." Sinclair said before cutting contact and Raven turned off the Radio.

"Make sure the Radio is safe and tucked away. We don't want anything happening to it on accident during a storm or anything." Damon said not mentioning the fucking hurricane that would be over them in a few days time.

But look at it from the bright side. The 100 would get to experience their first hurricane on the ground.

"Don't worry nothing will happen to it on my watch." Raven looked at him and smirked making him chuckle.

"You have fun in here." Damon patted Raven on the shoulder as she went on building a few items they would need later on.
