Prologue

The little girl stands there with her fists clenched, her face is bright red and if her eyes could produce fire they would have didn't the boy standing on her front steps alive.

"I hate you Tobias Eaton!" She screams at the top of her lungs. Those are the loudest words that has been spoken in this part of town. Yet alone heard.

With that she spins on the front landing, she opens the front door and slams in shut.

"Beatrice Prior come back her right this instant!" Her mother has called to her. But it's too late. Beatrice has ran up the stairs as fast as her small little seven year old legs could carry her. Now slammed her bedroom door shut.

Her mother sighs, walks to the front door and opens it. She looks outside and finds Tobias sitting on their steps with his head in his hands blaming himself for this. She goes and sits next to the boy and puts an arm on his shoulder.

"You know she didn't meant it don't you?" She tells the boy in a quite soothing tone.

He nods, "I know Mrs Prior," he says.

"She will calm down soon Tobias; just let her be for a little while. You know she loves you?" She rubs small circles on his back in a calming manor.

"She better love me, I'm going to marry her one day," Tobias states, lifting his head up proud.

The older woman laughs. Beatrice and Tobias have been best friends since Beatrice was two and Tobias was four. These fights have been happening ever since they first met. Neither child fits the Abnegation mould that they are being raised in. It makes it all that harder that their fathers are the two most powerful men in Abnegation. They should be setting an example for the other families but these two children can't seem to keep themselves out of trouble. Or away from each other. They have a unique bond; there is something that draws the two together like magnets. When Tobias said he would marry Beatrice, Mrs. Prior had no doubt that that is exactly what would happen. They already act like an old marry couple and they are only seven and nine.

"I better be getting home Mrs Prior, father will probably be home soon," Tobias says. With that Tobias stands, gives Mrs Prior a hug and walks back towards his own home.

Chapter 1.

Max POV

It has been five days, five long dreadful days. Evelyn was supposed to have arrived five days ago. I am really worried now. She was going to leave that sadistic bastard. I know she wouldn't have changed her mind, she can't change her mind. It's my child she is carrying and if Marcus finds out he will kill her. Not only will he kill her, he will kill our child and probably Tobias as well.

I have only just become a leader here in Dauntless. With that comes certain privileges. One I am about to use right now. I go outside and jump onto the first train that will lead me to the Abnegation sector of our great city. I need to make sure that Evelyn and Tobias are okay with no harm done. I would really like some answers as too why they haven't joined me in Dauntless, but most of all I need to know they are safe.

I jump from the train and start the walk to the Eaton's small block house. I am getting a few strange looks, it's not every day you see someone dressed in black walking the grey streets of Abnegation. I walk up to the front door and knock. When I am knocking the door is already open and as my fist hits the door, the door swings open.
