I limp through the forest.

After I plunged the knife into my attackers heart, I used all of my remaining energy to transport me out of that place.

So yeah, right now I'm limping through a forest. I don't know if it's the one behind the school, I mean, I could be in Africa for all I know.

I sit down on a fallen tree. I don't have anymore energy, so I can't transport anywhere.

I lay my head against the log and close my eyes.

Only for a couple of minutes. I'll only sleep for a couple of minutes.

"Holy shit!" Is the first thing I hear.

"Oh my fucking god." A voice says. "Tris, please don't be dead. I can't, I can't even. What the hell?"

I decide to open my eyes. Standing in front of me is Lynn, a very worried expression marked onto her face. When she sees that my eyes are open, she visibly relaxes.

"Come on, let's get you home."

"No," I say. My throat hurts from the effort. "You ant take me home." I finish.

"Take me here." I say, giving her the directions to the pack house.

"What? Of course I'm taking you home."

"Lynn please." I raso out.

"Fine. How am I supposed to take you? Jeez, who hurt you?" Lynn rambles on and on, but she manages to grab my arm. She pulls it over her shoulders and we start walking.

"Lynn." I say.

"Yeah, Tris?" She replies, looking at me worriedly.

"Let's take a break." I suggest.

"Okay, I'm fine with that." She shrugs my arm off of her shoulders and places me on the grass. I lay down and slowly close my eyes.

"No, Tris. Dammit, open your damn eyes." She screams.

"Just for a second." I say.

"No, Tris, fuck you and your sleep, open your eyes."

"Don't worry, I'll be up in a couple of minutes."

The last thing I hear is Lynn screaming at me, ordering me to wake up.

-:-:-:-

Tris, wake up.

Snow, is that you?

No, it's your fairy god mother. Of course it's me!

Oh.

You need to wake up.

But I'm very comfortable.

If you don't wake up, you'll die and leave out mate all alone.

My eyes snap open. Lynn is hovering over me, nibbling on her nails.

"Oh thank goodness! I seriously thought you were going to die." Lynn says, relief is evident on her features.

I can't get up. The adrenaline is no longer there. I am in so much pain.

"Lynn, lift my shirt up." I order her.

"What? No Tris-"

"Just do it, dammit!" I wheeze out.

She does as instructed. Her face goes pale.

"Tris, who did this to you?"

"What does it say?"

Her face is pale and her lip twitches. "Weak, it says weak."

I inhale sharply. How could someone be so cruel?

I lower my shirt. "Lynn?"

"Yeah?"

"Let's keep walking."

And so we do. We walk until the pack house is visible. I breathe in sharp and fast intakes. My leg is purple, and my abdomen is completely messed up.

I fall onto the floor, my body becoming very heavy all of a sudden.

"HELP!" Lynn shouts. She must know that this is no longer a game. I might die in the next couple of minutes.

"SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP!"

I turn my head and see about ten of my pack members rushing towards us.

Katniss is the first one to reach me.

"Oh god, Tris, what did they do to you?" She whispers.

"Get alpha Tobias right now!" She orders a group of pack members.

My eyes start closing.

"Damn you Tris, stop it." Katniss rips her shirt of and ties it around me thigh.

As my eyes are about to close, I see my mate running in my direction.

"Get Hermione!" He shouts at Thomas, who runs back inside the pack house in search of the doctor in training.

Tobias speeds towards me, an in an instant he is right in front of me, his tears cascading out of his eyes.

"Stay with me, Tris. Please." His voice hold so much desperation I can feel it in my gut.

I struggle to keep my eyes open. I try, I really do, but in the end the darkness seemed a little too tempting.

Wait, are you serious? Three chapters? lol is this an alternate reality where I'm actually a good writer?

So this chapter is really short, but there's actually a reason for it. Until the next one!
