Nita POV

   "Take this to Tobias Eaton." Peter says as he places a tray of food in my outstretched hands.
   "Are you sure that you don't remember them?" I ask. My hands grip the tray as he steps closer.
   "I told you no." He says through gritted teeth. Then he walks away as I walk towards Tobias' cell. Through the dirt stained window, he looks stressed, but when I open the door he lights up a tiny bit. I close and seal the door to make sure no one can hear our conversation. He gladly accepts his meal and continues to eat as we speak.
   "So what do I need to do to help?" I ask as I stand in front of him. He takes another bite of the red apple in his hands then speaks.
   "I was thinking we all meet in the woods near here and work out the plan I have but I can't go and get her, Ben wouldn't trust me, so what should we do?"
   "I'll go. I'll tell them to get ready and to meet us there tomorrow."
   "How will she know that you are on our side?" He asks as he places the tray on the edge of the bed.
   "Trust me I'll get her here." Just as I finish talking my watch beeps letting me know I have to go. I pick up the tray and walk out of the door, closing it behind me. After giving the empty tray to the guard outside of the door, I head towards the dormitories. My brown bag is lying on the bed right where I left it. I quickly fill it with a few items of clothing and refill my gun just incase everything goes bad.
    The man guarding the door to the trucks stops me in my tracks as I approach him.
   "Where do you think you are going?" He says. His eyes graze over my right shoulder, which happens to be where I am holding my bag, giving me a questioning look.
   "Retrieval of a target, and the bag is just incase I have to stay overnight. Now are we going to stand here and continue this conversation or are you going to let me through so I can get this done faster?" He just stares at me for a few moments and unlocks the door. I nod and walk a little faster to one of the trucks.
   Four's camp isn't too far from here on foot so it shouldn't take too long to get there on wheels. As I drive towards the camp I notice the sky getting a little darker. A few droplets of rain fall upon the windshield as I drive pass a few buildings. A man walks up to the truck as I slow down.
   "What do you want?" The man points his gun at my head. I slowly raise my right hand and keep my left hand on the barrel of my gun.
   "I need to see Tris Prior urgently, this is very important." He stares at me then looks at another man who is coming closer to us.
   "What's the hold up?" The man approaching the truck says as he pulls his gun across his chest.
   "This woman is here to see Tris, should we let her in?" He nods.
   "Step out of the truck, you'll have to walk with us if you want to see her." I just nod and step out, trying not to cause trouble. As we get closer to the building I assume Tris is in, a crowd of people start to file out. A woman approaches us but as she gets closer I notice it's Tris, and she looks pissed. Of course she would be, she always is whenever I'm around.
   "Tris, it's not what you think let me explain." She storms up to me and stops right in front of my face.
   "You sure have a death wish for showing up here." One blow to my face, but I get back up and stare at her.
   "Tris, I'm helping Four."
   "Bullshit." Another punch sent right for my face, sending me down to the ground, but I get back up to speak.
   "Tris! Stop! I know how to get your daughter back!" I plead but it doesn't stop her, the next blow causes my head to snap back and collide with the dirt road. Blackness consumes my vision as a crowd surrounds me.

Okay I know this chapter isn't really that good and way overdue so I am so sorry for that. I promise I'll update sooner. I'm working on another chapter for "It's Not Real" right now so that should be updated soon.
