Step Up Divergent

Wanda

Tris POV

I slide my tray along the cafeteria line. Mashed potatoes there...a hamburger on the other. Just right. I walk myself along the tables searching for an open spot. Sadly there aren't any. Who knew prison was like school.

A girl with glasses sits by reading a book. She looks about my age. Just as I'm about to make my way over to her I see something fly in my direction. I look down. The mashed potatoes hit my newly fashionable suit. I look up. The room erupts in laughter. I look at the girl who threw the mashed stuff at me.

Control. I tell myself but sadly I'm short on temper. I drop my tray. The room goes silent.

"You" I say looking over at the girl. She eyes me up and down.

"What?" She laughs

"May I speak with you...alone" I add. She looks around and stands up. She walks my way. What did I just do? She gets close to me.

"Is there a problem?" She says.

"I need someone's help" I say. She furrows her eyebrows "ever heard of Jeanine Mathews?"

"I'm listening" she says.

"She's planning on taking over the city...she's taking over our neighborhood" I tell her. No wonder she seemed familiar. Wanda. She's the girl who stole money from that store at the mall.

"You came to the right person" she smiles.

Tobias POV

"Get out" her voice whispers in my head. I run my fingers through my hair. Why did I even think she was capable of murder. It's Jeanine...I shouldn't...I-

"Tobias" a knock comes on the door. Christina.

"What?" I ask with a little bit of a tone.

"Um...you have a phone call" she says.

"I already told you...tell them I need time I'm not ready" I say. Gosh these people want to deal with funeral things and money. I don't have time for that.

"It's not that...turn the t.v. on and after that come get the phone" she walks away. What? I glance at the remote across the room. I don't feel like doing it but I get up anyway. I press the button and the t.v. turns on.

"I will be taking over is Tobias Eaton doesn't respond to his fathers rights..." the reporters ask more questions "yes, as if now. I am heading to the city hall to finish signing those papers. We will start construction right after Marcus Eaton's funeral" I turn it off. I need to do something...

Tris POV

"I know...yes...tell him my name is Wanda. Just watch out for Lauren. Alright bye Christina" she hangs up. I look around. The coast is clear.

"Let's go" I whisper yell. She nods. We move along the walls and stop at every sound that comes. I never thought I would do this...I mean Wanda and I were never friends. It was always more of a I don't talk to you and you don't either but let's get together to complete a project or something. You get me an A and I help you with your artsy project.

I make it safely back into my cell...without the officer noticing. The dog seems to like me...

"So...I help you, what do you give me?" I look across my "room". Of course...how can I forget the Wanda deal.

"I think I've helped you enough with keeping your family safe" I say. What did I just say? She remains silent. Which is the scary thing about being in silence with her. I mean I did warn her in time for her family to save their business.

"Well that's true...but if you are planning on stopping her with me then you must have some sort of escape plan" I didn't think of that...

"That's illegal" I state "I can't do that" her jaw drops.

"But Jeanine is doing far more worse things then we are...you shouldn't even be here. If she can do it so can we"

"Smart people are always psycho, ever heard of that?" I close my eyes. Gosh I'm tired.

"So you're calling yourself stupid?" I open one eye to look at her.

"I never said that...all I'm saying is there's going to have to be some sort of miracle in order to fight this"

"Fine...then what do we do? Train these juvenile kids?" I sit up straighter. Wide awake...

"Not a bad idea" I say a smile spreading across my lips.

Sorry guys. Here's the chapter. Love you all <4
