The Divergent Spirits

28)

Ellie's POV

As the Mr. Kang and the Candor were going through what we agreed upon, Seth, Maci, and Cheyenne spoke as we walked to an elevator.

"So... what are we gonna do now?" Cheyenne asked.

"Hell, kill Jeanine. She's the main cause of all of this." Maci told her.

"Well, can't blame that. And that leader, Max, right?" Cheyenne asked.

"Yeah, kill them both and their supporters." Seth added.

Then, suddenly, we heard screaming as people were running for their lives as guns were being fired through the windows, making them shatter as dozens of men dressed in black, a black band with blue accents and Erudite's symbol were around their biceps zip-lined into the room. Dauntless Traitors.

We immediately dart towards the stairwell, barely dodging the bullets that were being shot as us. We quickly made our way down the stairs, my feet moved as fast as they could go. The weapons closet is where we need to go.

We made across the black and white floor, turning the corner only to see several Dauntless Guards standing guard in front of a solid metal door that was black. "Shit." I cursed as the guards took note our presences.

I dive for cover behind a nearby wall as bullets started to rain down on me. I peered from behind the wall, immediately catching sight of a guard just by the wall.

"Stay here, Cheyenne." Seth told her.

"Whatever." Cheyenne nodded.

Seth and I nodded and running towards the guards as I took the barrel of the guard's gun, smacking his wrist up like we were taught, swiftly disarming him. We quickly retreating to the safety of the wall, I only peek out from behind it to return the shots that were being fired.

I could hear bodies falling one after another ever each shot I fired and soon, I could make out only one gun being fired.

I scooted over, aiming my gun and squeezing the trigger. The gun shot echoes down the hall, followed by the sound of the last body falling limp onto the floor before scurrying over to the door.

"Come on you two!" I yelled for Maci and Cheyenne to run towards the room.

I looked around the dark hallway for anything I could use to break the lock. Maci grabs the fire extinguisher that sat just beside the metal door, picking it up and rammed it against the lock.

"Stop!" We jumped up at the sound of Max's voice as he and those traitors approaching from behind us.

"It's real nice to see you three again. I'm guessing this is your real cousin, Cheyenne." Max said with a sick smile. "Test them." Before someone comes up to test us, only for us to be Divergent....200%.

"I'll be damned. Well, you four are the ones we're looking for. Load them to truck. We'll find more just like them; like their little sister." Soon, we felt the butt of the gun struck us; all I saw was darkness.

Tristian's POV

I held onto Olivia tightly as Molly, Steph, and Carmen made our way up where we saw Zeke pointing his gun at Four's head.

"Zeke, what are you doing?" I hear Four asking him.

"Proving my loyalty." Zeke replies, coldly.

We watched as we spotted Tris with Will and Christina, who are in protective mode as Emily is behind pushed behind by Eric. I see Tori a few feet behind Four. She makes her way to Max, who was kneeling in the middle of the room with his hands bound behind his back and loosens the pair of cuffs around his wrists as I pushed Olivia behind me to prevent them from seeing her.

"Zeke?" Molly called, drawing his attention to her. "Zeke, don't even do this. He's like your brother. You said so yourself when we first met. You really don't want to hurt him."

"You're right, Molly." He says as he aimed the gun at her instead. "I thought Seth, Ellie, and Maci are the ones I really want to hurt but you would do, Molly."

"Zeke, no, please, Ezekiel!" Four yells, gaining his attention back to him.

"Ezekiel? You're making me sound like I'm in trouble, Tobias." He scoffs.

"If you want to shoot someone, shoot me. Not Molly."

"Alright, if you insist then." Zeke says before pulling the trigger.

TIME SKIP

"I'm sorry, Four." Uriah apologizes to Four who was resting on the bed. "I can't believe my brother would do something like that."

"That wasn't him." Zed said. "Zeke wouldn't do something like that."

"Zed's right, Uriah. Your brother isn't like them." Four says.

Uriah scoffs, "Right now, I kind of find that hard to believe. I mean, he could have killed you, Four. How could you still have so much faith in him?"

"Because if he had really wanted to kill me, the bullet would have landed here instead." Four says, pointing his head. "I trust Zeke and Tori. They aren't one of them. They're planning something. I don't know what it is, but they are."

"Yeah," Uriah sighs as he sticks his hands into his pockets, "I hope you're right, Four."

Then, Mr. Kang came in the room and said, "Mr. Eaton, I'm glad to see that you're healing well."

"Thank you for helping us." Four nods.

"I wish I could do more." Mr. Kang says, "I had no idea Jeanine was capable of doing something like that. Let alone take Seth, Ellie, Maci, and Cheyenne."

"WHAT?!" We all yelled out.

"When did that happen?" Four asked.

"Moments before you got shot." Mr. Kang told him.

Four gritted his jaw and said, "It's time we fought back."
