Chereads / The 100: Sky King / Chapter 30 - My Shadow

Chapter 30 - My Shadow

After the bodies were secure Damon called a meeting with the generals and they all met in the tent.

"What happened Damon?" Clarke asked while sitting in her chair at the command table. 

"The mountain men got antsy, they must have got curious and wanted to send a small intelligence team to learn everything they could about us and bring back the information. Sadly, for them, Miller and his team can spot a mouse a mile away and they were caught lacking." Damon said pointing to the two dead bodies.

"So, they weren't able to get any information back to the mountain?" Octavia asked 

"No, but now that this team is missing, they might send another team to check up on what happened," Bellamy said and Damon nodded

"Indeed, but right now the most important thing is what these two idiots just gave us." Damon said before pulling out two items making the others look closely at them with confusion.

"What are those?" Clarke asked

"This." Damon flicked a switch on the small metal device causing an annoying ringing sound making everyone cover their ears and frown.

Damon switched it off.

"What the hell," Octavia said with a glare while Clarke just frowned.

"What even is that?" Bellamy asked

"This right here controls the reapers and now that we have one Raven should be able to make more." Damon smiled and the other's eyes widened.

"Damn, they fucked up big." Bellamy smiled

"Oh, if you think that is a fuck up then you're going to be even more surprised at this." Damon held up a small plastic card.

"That can't be what I'm thinking it is." Clarke smiled making him laugh and then she started laughing as well causing Octavia and Bellamy to look at each other with confused faces.

"Okay, you two want to fill us in?" Bellamy said with annoyance after he and Clarke couldn't stop laughing.

"Those fucktards gave us the key to their kingdom." Damon waved the card around like it was gold.

"No! You're saying that it can open a way into the mountain?" Bellamy said with surprise.

"This key right here will let us open the Reaper Cave entrance doors as it isn't connected to any of those two's identities meaning the likelihood of them deactivating this card is slim to none." Damon smiled

"I'm not even sure why these two chuckleheads used the grounder tunnels as their way out of the mountain." Damon shrugged

"Maybe the grounders forced them somehow," Octavia said

"Could be, maybe the grounders have their other entrances being watched as they are very weary of the mountain and all of the moves they make." Damon nodded though he wasn't completely sure as most grounders were more scared of the mountain than anything.

"This will be our secret for now. No one is to know of this except for all of us and Raven. Understood?" Damon said seriously

"Understood." They nodded

"Yall take these bodies and let Clarke learn everything she can from them and take their supplies for later use," Damon said

The three stood up to leave but Damon put a hand on Bellamy's shoulder.

"Tell my shadow to come here," Damon said making Bellamy frown before nodding.

Damon sat back down in his chair before thinking of his next plans. 

A few minutes later he felt a blade press against his neck making him chuckle. 

"You're too loud I heard you twenty feet away," Damon said and watched a young girl step into his vision wearing a black cloak blocking all of her body and her face except her lips.

"That's because you can hear a fly buzzing twenty feet away." The young girl's lips curled into a small smirk before going back to their usual straight line.

"My shadow how is your team training going?" Damon asked with a smile while looking fondly at the young girl.

The young girl had a name once before she asked him to call her by a new name after killing her old identity.

She had been just a hurt innocent child with nightmares and PTSD of the suffering she had faced.

She had slacked in her training on the ark and Damon had noticed. He had a talk with her and somehow his talk led her to want to be his Shadow.

She was now the best weapon in his arsenal and an assassin of insane magnitude.

Willing to kill any person innocent or guilty on just the whims of his words.

Someone who could blend in, in any situation, a spy and his Intelligence Leader.

Charlotte had been her name.

"It's going fine though it's hard to train them for real when there's nothing to do." His shadow said with a flat voice.

"Well, I have a mission for you now," Damon said causing the Shadow to look up slightly. 

"Come here." Damon waved her over and the Shadow put her ear next to his mouth and whispered his words to her.

"It shall be done." Damon blinked and the Shadow was gone.
