I hope you people get the difference between Sheryll's POV and Tris' POV because the two of them are different! And I know the other chapter might have seemed abrupt, but that's what makes this book Divergent! Love you readers!

Tobias' POV:

I hear the engine starting and I know that I'm being taken to someplace. It's stuffy inside the sack and it smells strongly of jute. I hate that smell, it makes me want to cough. And now, here I am, stuck in a bag of jute. What luck!

I hear the sound of the car moving on the concrete road. The concrete creates a distinct, almost inaudible chit sound when the tyres' rubber grinds upon it. And in the pin-drop silence of the car, I could easily hear that sound.
"Where are we going?" I said loudly because my voice was getting muffled by the sack.
"Not somewhere you'd like to be, Four."A voice says. It doesn't belong to the man earlier. I struggle to get free from the ropes. But I know it's useless- even if I do get out, these people are going to bind me back.
"Where.." I start to ask, but then change my question,"Why'd you kidnap me?"

There's no reply. I wait for someone to answer me. No one does so I ask again,"Why have you kidnapped me?"

Again, all I hear in response in silence. Somebody reply!!
"Can some-"
"SHUT UP, FOUR!" The man hisses at me. His voice barely rises above a whisper. I frown inspite of knowing that he won't be able to see me. It's so dark and I'm feeling bored. Somehow, I don't feel afraid. I feel as if this is boring. I know for one thing that these guys aren't professional in kidnapping, so they're behaving weirdly.

"Why are we here?" I ask again, regretting it immediately.
"Shut up! The police is here!" The man hisses.

The police is here.
The police is here.
The POLICE is HERE!

"AARGHH!" I scream at the top of my voice ensuring that the police hears me. Then, I feel someone scampering around. I receive a sudden blow on the head and then all I'm aware of is the darkness.

Sheryll's POV:

I rush to Zeke's house, my heart pounding inside my chest. My mind is completely clouded: I don't know know to do. I feel left out, I need to save Tobias. As far as I know him, he is not a person to be kidnapped so easily. The people must've been hefty and agile, otherwise this wouldn't be possible. My hair all over my face, I knock at the door harshly. I hear the sound of shuffling feet and the door is opened my Zeke.
"Tobias..." I manage to say, unable to say anything further.
Zeke understands that something is wrong and asks me, with a worried look on his face,"What happened, Tris?"

I cringe slightly upon hearing him call me Tris. I'm not Tris. I'm Sheryll, but I can never tell them this-
Stop, I say to myself, this is about Tobias.
"He..he was.." I don't know how to frame what I felt. How is this possible? I look at him with concern and say,"Kidnapped."
"What?!" He looks at me as if I just said that I was not Tris. He looks that shocked,"Tobias.. And kidnapped?"
"Yes, we gotta do something," I say. I feel helpless.
"Umm..." H runs a hand through his hair,"I think we should..call the police? I'll get Shauna."

Call the police? Won't that take too much of time? I don't know if thats the best thing to do...
But can we do anything else? I don't think so.
I quickly dial 9-1-1 on my phone.
"Hello?" A female voice replies.
"Hi.. I'm Tris Prior and I have to report a kidnapping," I say. I feel fake on saying that I'm Tris.
"A kidnapping?" The woman asks, almost no emotion in her voice,"When did it take place?"
"Today.. Just sometime ago. Ten minutes, at most." I say, my heart beating faster.
"Oh. Where are you, right now?"
I give her the address and the lady promises that she'd sent a search team to look for Tobias.
"What does the victim look like?"
