The Unexpected. [Secuel To The Unknown] {Eric FF}

Fifty-Two.

"I don't think you understand the repercussions this you're proposing will have" Christine said with a big angry frown.

"There will be no repercussions, we will scale back to our original faction system, divergent will be taken out off the city towards the colony in the Department and that is it" Morgan tried to reason.

They knew Christine would not take it lightly that the city was going to be closed down. Her faction was the one who lost the most. Expeditions would no longer be, the research the Department provided, the different courses they were setting up to have people in the Department come and teach in the specialized schools in Erudite.

"Not to mention that not once the Department showed any interest or concerns during and after the attack" the Candor leader said.

Eric knew he had them all in the bag, besides giving the currently status and the decision to close the city down, he hadn't said much. He didn't need to give explanations.

"And not to mention" Morgan said angry "that they fucking used us, took advantage of out hospitality in dauntless. We trained them for them to help us in cases like this. Amity was decimated"

"And whose fault is that?" Christine tried to spun around on Morgan.

"The department's. We reached and agreement, the conflict outside the borders were theirs to resolve, had we had a fair warning of what was coming out troops would've mobilized and acted fast, avoid casualties."

Eric stood up from his seat and looked at the leaders.

"This matter will be resolved with a votation after I come back from the settlement. Let's meet back tomorrow at this hour, make sure all your leaders are briefed of the situation and be ready to cast a vote"

Eric surrounded the table and walked out.

Morgan was going to stay back to talk to the other leaders, specially Amity, but she walked after Eric to see him before he left.

She caught up to him on the hall, holding him by the hand

"Though you were falling back" he said, pulling her closer and holding her by the waist.

"I was, I just wanted to see you out, make sure to remember you that you have a wife and baby waiting for you so don't do any stupid shit while you're out there"

Eric let out a little smile and stopped in front of the main door out of Erudite.

"I've been voted out of the first wave by every team" he said, pulling Morgan to match her chest with his.

"So you're not going out there?"

"I will, just later, once I'm being given the confirmation the threat has been put down. I'll track down any kind of information I can get to bring back. Maybe I'll scope out the Department while I'm at it. If I'm in the mood I might kill everyone there, we'll see"

"I'll like to speak with them before, so please don't"

Eric nodded and placed a short kiss on Morgan's lips.

"I'll be back before dinner. Take care of everything around here okay?"

Morgan nodded, giving Eric another kiss and letting him walk out.

As soon as Eric got in the truck towards the fence, Morgan walked to the nursery to quickly check if Aleks was alright, he didn't seem to mind baou anything and was quietly playing with moving blocks on top of a mat.

She headed to the control room in Erudite and indicated the dauntless guards that had taken over to do anything they could to establish communications with the Department. She told them to send a distress signal that if they didn't reply back in the next 12 hours there would be serious repercussions for them.
