I'll Never Let You Go - A Fourtris Fanfiction

Chapter Three - Tris' POV

Where am I? It takes a moment for my eyes to adjust, but I soon figure out my location.

The Erudite Testing Lab.

"Ms. Prior? Ms. Prior, can you hear me? Ms. Prior?", a familiar voice asks me.

I know who it is, I just can't put my finger on it.

I am somehow able to answer with, "Loud and clear."

Then I figure out who the lady is.
Jeanine.

Wait, this can't be right! Jeanine's dead!

Where is Tobias?

"Oh, you're precious little Tobias is right here, sweetheart, don't worry."

I must've been thinking out loud again. Crap.

She points to what I thought was a machine, but then it emerges from the darkness, and a tall, black and blue figure comes into view.

"Tobias! What have they done to you?"
I run to him only to be stopped by a clear glass wall. And when I try to break it, guards pull me off of it by punching me in my face and kicking me in my ribs. At one point they hit the bullet wound, and I can't breathe.

"Tris! Tris, no! Stop it! She doesn't deserve this! No! No, stop! Stop! Please! Tris!", Tobias pleads.

"Mr. Eaton,", Jeanine starts. "If she would've cooperated, she wouldn't have had to receive the consequences. Now, I suggest you keep quiet for the rest of this session, or you're beloved Tris will get another beating."

"Okay.", Tobias says weakly.

But that's when I notice it.

Tobias' eyes aren't green, they're blue.

But they're green right now.

I don't even tell Jeanine.

I just tell myself to wake up, that it's all a dream.

And I can't.

Jeanine says without even looking at me, "Ms. Prior, if you struggle there will be more-"

That's when I start to tune her out.

Because of the shiny, hard, cold, metal object I feel beneath my palm.

My gun.

I immediately put it to my head.

It's just a dream, I tell myself. It's just a dream.

Then I hear a click and a bang, and the lights go out.
