Allegiant Continues

Chapter Forty Four

Jack.

"Stop!" I yelled

Someone came out of Dauntless.

"Tris!" Zeke called

"Stay away! He's working with Erudite!" I yelled

"Who?" Zeke asked

"Jack!"

"Tris! Calm down!"

"STOP IT!" I yelled

"Tris! Calm down! He's just trying to get in your head!" Zeke yelled

"DON'T DO THIS TO ME!"

Tobias ran over by Zeke.

"What is going on?" Tobias asked

"Jack is messing with her." Zeke explained as Tobias started to come toward me

"Stay away! I don't want to hurt you!" I yelled

"Tris! Don't let him." Tobias said coming closer

"I'm serious! STAY AWAY FROM ME!" I yelled

Then the ringing stopped. I fell to the ground.

"Tris!" Tobias called

Zeke held him back.

"You don't know what he's done to her." Zeke said

Tobias stopped struggling toward me. Then Jack came up behind me. His guards grabbed me by the arms roughly.

"Be careful! I'm trying to take care of someone here and you aren't helping!" I said

"Let her go." Tobias ordered

The guards released me. I fell. I put my hand over my stomach. Tobias helped me up. I was breathing heavily. Jack pressed a button on the remote in his hand. I heard the ringing again.

"Step away from me." I said harshly

Zeke and Tobias stepped back. Jack and his guards stayed there. I screamed. Then I stopped screaming. Caleb told me about a can that could blow up when you threw it. I found one in his closet. I took it out of my pocket.

"I know that can. Step back. Things are about to get messy." Zeke said

I flipped the can in my hands. I smirked. I threw the can. I ducked on the ground. I covered my head. The can exploded. The ground shook. I got up. I felt a tingling going through me. I looked at my arms. Blood.

"No!" I yelled "No!No!No!No!"

I started to cry. My knees buckled under me. I put my hand over my stomach. I could still feel the baby. I sighed with relief.

Tobias' POV:
I ran over to Tris. I wasn't sure what she was doing. When she saw me, she got up. I wrapped my arms around her. Then she collapsed. I picked her up. Zeke saw me.

"Be careful!" Zeke shouted at me

"Since when do you care about her?" I asked

"Come on." Zeke said

We walked to the infirmary. I didn't know what was going on between Zeke and Tris. Why does Zeke care about Tris now? Something was going on. I had to find out. When we got to the infirmary, a nurse grabbed her out of my arms.

Tris's POV:
I woke up in the infirmary. I couldn't really hear anything. Tobias and Zeke were at the front of my bed arguing about something. Tobias looked at me. He came over to my side. My hearing cleared. Tobias sat down in the chair next to the bed.

"Hey." I said

"How are you feeling?" Tobias asked

"Fine. What were you and Zeke talking about?" I asked

Zeke cleared his throat.

"Like I said, not my business to tell." Zeke said

I knew exactly what they were fighting about. Tobias must think there is something going on between me and Zeke. Tobias helped me sit up.

"What are you not telling me?" Tobias asked

Then the ringing started again. I covered my ears with my hands. I brought my knees to my chest. I screamed.

"STOP!" I yelled

Nurses came over to my bedside. Zeke grabbed Tobias' arm. He pulled Tobias to the waiting room. The ringing got worse.

"WHAT DO YOU WANT WITH ME?" I yelled

Tears started rolling down my face.

"Tris. Can you hear me?" a nurse said

"LEAVE ME ALONE! I CAN'T HELP YOU!" I yelled

A nurse came over with something. She put them in my ears. The ringing stopped. The nurses left. Tobias came back over to me.

"I'm dying aren't I?" I said

"I don't know Tris." Tobias said

"I'm dying." I said

I looked up at the ceiling. I closed my eyes. I calmed my breathing. Tobias put his hand over mine.

"I'm not going to let that happen. I promise." Tobias said

I opened my eyes and looked at Tobias. Tears welled up in my eyes.

"You promise both of us?" I said

"Both of you? Tris, what are you talking about?" Tobias asked

I smiled. Tears streamed down my face. I put my hand over my stomach. Tobias smiled. He put his hand on my cheek.

"You aren't leaving me." Tobias said

************

A few hours later, the nurses let me go home. Zeke was still in the waiting room. He stood up when he saw us walking out of the infirmary. Tobias had a big smile on his face. Zeke looked at me.

"You told him?" Zeke asked

"Yea. Why else would he have a huge smile on his face?" I said laughing
