DAUNTLESS (Divergent sequil, no war)

chapter 13

AN,

Rather than do each point of view in a new chapter there will be some swapping between Tris and Tobias going on in this one, I'll obviously say when it happens but this is just a quick heads up.

***********************************************************************

(Tobias' point of view)

The second I see Zeke leave with Tris and her team I run to the control room. they won't have time to discuss their plan before the train gets in so he will use the intercom. He knows how to. I sprint up and grab the speaker and microphone. I won't need the mic but I don't have time to bother with disconnecting it.

I don't wait long until I hear there plan. People will guard along the line to watch where the other teams go, it's not a bad plan. Tris and some others will take the flag into a factionles zone and find a random house, somewhere inconspicuous with few high buildings. That is where they make there mistake. There is only one area of factionles buildings that is made of only low buildings. I know where to find their flag.

I grab a handful of walkie talkies and run back to the dining room. My team are leaving as I approach. I find Shauna and hand her a walkie talkie as she hands me the flag. Ours is green.

When we are on the platform I hand out the walkie talkies to people I can trust to use them properly. I don't want to use the intercom just in case anyone else has the same idea as I did to listen in, I doubt that they will but I warn everyone once we are on the train. Communication will be key if we want to avoid an ambush as we leave the train and take the flag.

I hand the flag back to Shauna and tell her and a few others to get off as close to the compound as possible. No one will look for us there. Shauna jumps off and I watch as she leaves, no shots are fired so I was right to presume that they didn't get off this close to the compound.

A few more jump off a little way along the line to make a line of defence between the rest of the city and the dauntless compound. I send a group off over to the fairground. I know one group will probably take there flag there or at least presume that someone else has and so we could use it as a distraction.

I know it's a bit mean of me to go after Tris like this, but honestly my competitive side is in control. Beating Eric in that fight isn't enough for me, were on even ground now, I need to one up him. Or two up I guess.

I definitely should have told Tris about the game though. She will not be too happy with me, but I'll deal with that when I see her. I hold the speaker up to my mouth and press the button on the side.

"I'm getting off here, anyone who is ready for action now with me, there aren't many of them here, but we will need to split up once we're in to find them. Some of you need to head to the Hancock building, get high ground and look out. This game lasts all day! Don't waist bullets, stay on this station and keep in touch... Over."

(Tris' point of view)

"We need to move!" I yell as I storm out of the building. Uriah is lying on the roof of the house to take anyone out who gets too close but we want to get as far away from it as we can.

"What's wrong?" Zeke calls.

"It's T... It's Four." I correct myself. "He knows we're here, I don't know how, but we just need to get away from the flag, find another house and protect it. Pretend the flag is there."

"I KNEW YOU WOULD HAND US OVER YOU LITTLE..."

"Wow Mel, calm down." Zeke says. She stops shouting but continues to mumble under her breath. "I bet he listened to the intercom machine in the control room. It's the only explanation. How do you know he is coming?"
