What Next

20|"It Was Just A Dream."

<Tris's POV>

I stand dressed in a flowing black gown, next to the mound of freshly dug dirt. The slight breeze blows my hair around my face, making it hard for me to see. The tears flow in a steady stream down my face as Christina's hand rubs my back. The simple gesture comforts me, but it could never fill the hole in my heart. The hole that only Tobias could fill. Of coarse, that will never happen now, because Tobias was just lowered into the ground lifeless, and covered in the fresh dirt.

"Tobias!" His name leaves my lips in a yell. I sit up in our bed, screaming his name. I only calm down when a hand is put on my back and Tobias speaks.

"Tris? Are you alright?" He asks, his dark blue eyes staring at me. I take in a deep breath before speaking.

"Thank god you're alive, I had a dream and you died because of the Erudite hunting us," I explain. He nods his head and listens to my explanation. When I'm done he lays me back down and then lies down himself.

"It was just a dream."

"Ya, but it all felt so real," I complain.

"But it wasn't Tris, and I'm not going to leave you for a long long time, don't you worry," Tobias claims with a stern voice. I turn my head to him and kiss him on the cheek. After a few more hours of sleep we once again wake up and go to eat breakfast.

We sit down next to Shauna, Uriah, Zeke, Will, and Christina. Shauna looks awful, which could be expected after she learned that her sister is probably dead, and probably her brother as well. We sit in silence for a while until Uriah speaks.

"This silence is defining, I hate it," he says smirking. I roll my eyes at his smile.

"Alright Uriah lets talk, what are we going to do?" Tobias asks. Uriah shrugs his shoulders and leans back a bit.

"I just wanna get outta Amity, too nice," Zeke says.

"I like it," Christina announces. Zeke sticks his tongue out at Chris and Christina mimics him like little children.

"We look for my sister, brother, and Marlene," Shauna says. Uriah freezes at Marlene's name.

"Shauna we told you, there is no way that they made it out," Tobias explains. Shauna rolls her eyes. As I watch Shauna I see someone behind her. When he turns around my blood boils.

Peter stands only a few feet away. He smirks when he sees me. As he walks closer I squeeze Tobias's hand. "Look who it is, the stiff," he says sitting down next to me. "Funny seeing you here," he adds.

"Why did you of all people have to get out?" I ask angrily.

"Because I'm smart," Peter says. I laugh a bit, and mumble a 'sure'. "You know what else is funny?"

"What?" Tobias asks, irritated with Peter and his stupid smile and face.

"I could've sworn I saw two girls get crushed during the attack, what were their names, oh ya Lynn and Marlene." The second the words leave Peter's mouth Uriah is on him faster than any of us could react.

Uriah jumps over the table and pushes Peter to the ground and starts to choke him. Peter punches Uriah off him, earning Uriah a black eye. Recovering quickly, Uriah knees Peter in the gut. As he coughs, Peter can't resist anymore and Tobias pulls Uriah off of Peter as the kind amity shriek in horror.

Everyone is silent as Johanna walks in front of us with despair etched across her face.
