Chapter 25 – Finding the Family
Tris' POV
The attack took us all by surprise. When Tobias left to go to the pit to get us some hot chocolate, Eric came and knocked the front door to the apartment down, and he and his friends took Bear, the kids, and I, and blind folded us so we couldn't see where we were going. They took us down a lot of long hallways to some room that sounded like it had a metal door by the way it loudly slammed shut.
"Mommy! Where are we?" Jenna asked. "To be honest, I have no clue Jenna." I tell her. I listen around for Jake and Bear, but I don't hear anything. "Jake, are you here?" I ask, hoping he is.
"Mom? What happened? I hit my head when they threw us in here." I should have known Eric wouldn't make this a gentle ride here. Not even for two little kids and a dog. Speaking of Bear, where is he? "Jake, we are locked in a room with a metal door. Is Bear next to you?" I ask. I know he can't see anything, because we are all blind folded, but I hope that at least he can feel around for Bear.
I hear shuffling around in a corner of the room. "Mom, I found him. He is tied to something. I can't take it off him." He says.
This truly isn't a good night. What would Eric want with us? Knowing him, it's probably because he wants Tobias to give up his role as a Dauntless leader.
Tobias, where are you? I think to myself.
Since I can't see anything, and my hands are tied behind my back, and probably so are the kids' hands, we can't really do anything. Just listen for the sound of the metal door open if and when someone walks by.
After a while, I hear some people laughing and talking outside. And judging by the tone of their voices, they sound like Eric, Max, Paul, I think his name is. I've only met him once, and someone else I don't know. The door opens, and a blast of cold air hits me, causing me to shiver.
"Well, Tris. Where is that Four of yours, huh?" he asks, and I can tell he has a smirk on his face. He's enjoying seeing me and the kids helpless and tied up.
"I wouldn't know. And even if I did, I wouldn't tell you. You should know that by now, Eric." I spit his name out like its venom. He just laughs at me and I'm starting to get really agitated.
"What do you want Eric? And is it that important to you that you have to kidnap two young children, an old dog, and a pregnant woman?" Crap, I just told him I was pregnant. Knowing Eric, he will do everything possible to harm me and the twins. Nice going Tris. I mentally face-palm myself
"Really?" he says as says with a fake surprised voice. I hear footsteps coming in my direction and in a matter of seconds, the blind fold is ripped off from my face. "Well Tris. I never thought you had it in you Tris. Four must really love you do it with you. Although, I still don't see how he liked you at all in the first place." He looks over in the kids direction and see that they have their blind folds already off and they are staring at Eric with scared to death faces. He gets up and slowly walks towards them at the other end of the room.
"Eric! Don't. Even. Think. About it." I say each word with seriousness. "Four will be here any moment and beat the crap out of you. He is the Dauntless leader, and I'm sure he isn't above hurting another Dauntless member." And with that, he quickly turns around and I get punched in the face.
"MOM!" Jake yells. "Get away from her! My father is a Dauntless leader and he will have you exiled-" Jake says right before Eric cuts him off with a punch in the face. Just as Eric's fist comes in contact with Jakes jaw, the metal door swing open again, and I see Tobias, Will, and a couple other guys, take Eric and his friends down to the ground. After Tobias has Eric up against the wall, he has his hand on his throat and holding him up so his feet barley touches the ground.
