Hola my friends. Sorry I haven't updated all weekend :( But here's a chapter! LOL hope you enjoy :)

Tobias POV

Tris has been gone for twenty minutes wen she said ten. I slip my shoes on and head out the door.

Down the hallway and around the corner I find something shocking. Ellie's stroller is lying sideways on the ground, with no Ellie or Tris. I start to panic and run towards Christina's apartment.

"What?" She groans, answering the door.

"They're gone," I say, walking through the doorway.

"Sure, Four, come in," she says, annoyed.

"Sorry. Tris and Ellie went for a walk and didn't come back. The stroller is sideways in the hallway,"

"Well, where do you think they went?" She asks. I raise my eyebrows.

"I don't know, but they were probably kidnapped." I say, a little sharper than I meant it.

"Four," She says, walking to me. "They'll be okay, wherever they are."

"I hope," I say. We head out the door to begin our search for Tris and Ellie.

Tris POV

I wake in an unfamiliar room. Tight closed space, empty walls, curled in a ball. There's a bruise on my face and an aching in my sides. Where am I?

I sit up, wincing from the pain and look around. I feel like i've been here before. I pull my knees to my chest and twiddle my thumbs.

I hear muffled voices from outside, but the door's locked. The voices come closer and the door slowly creaks open.

"Morning," Someone in a black mask says. I get dragged bby my feet out of the room. I try to scream, but am quieted by a hand on my mouth. Rope is tied around my hands and feet.

I finally subside fighting and let myelf be dragged. Now that I take a look around, I recognize the hallway. Grey walls, grey floor. I'm in Abnegation.

But where? Who's house? The next room I find myself in is empty. Grey though. I find a sleeping Ellie in the corner on a blanket. Her face is tear streaked.

"What did you do?" I grit my teeth. I hear footsteps from the hallway-long and slow. The person still has their mask on. I don't know who it is.

"Beatrice Prior," The figure says, stepping into the room. Once I see who it is, my stomach drops.

"Marcus," I gasp.

"I never thought i'd see you in an abnegation house again. You used to be a lovely young lady," He says, pacing the floor, slowly.

"Let me leave," I say.

"But the fun just started," He says.

"See, Beatrice,-" he starts.

"It's Tris," I interject. He slaps my face, my cheek burning.

"Manners, Miss Prior. Or should I say Mrs. Eaton? I am your father in law,"

"How'd you find out?" I question.

"Back to my story. See Beatrice, I wanted to see my son and congratulate him on his child. But, he wouldn't meet me. I messaged him, but my son seems to lack manners, like you."

"He will never be your son. And you are not his father. And Ellie is certainly not your granddaughter, and I will never be your daughter in law. You mean nothing to our family," I say. "And he hates you. He never wants to see you again."

"On the contrary," He starts. "He'd need to find his wife and child?"

My breathing gets heavy. I hate him. HATE. I don't even want Tobias saving us. He'd just be devastated.

"I understand you know Molly and Drew?" Marcus says. Just then, the guards pull their masks off, revealing the two faces I never wanted to see in my life again.

"Here's some cereal, enjoy," He says, tossing me a small box of bland cereal. Molly, Drew, and Marcus leave the room and I'm left alone with Ellie. She gets startled from the door slamming and wakes up.

"Ellie," I say. She starts to cry softly as I fiddle with the ropes. Once I get my hands done, I pull the one from my feet and rush to Ellie. I lift her small frame into my arms and press her to my shoulder.

"It'll be okay," I whisper in her shoulder. I'm not sure, but eventually it will.

Tobias POV

"Who do you think did it?" Uriah asks.

"I don't know. These questions won't help!" I say. Zeke places his hands on my shoulders.

"Calm down bro, we'll find them." He says. I nod and run my fingers through my short hair. Christina comes back to the room.

"Maybe we should ask her parents. Maybe they saw her or something." She says.

"Okay," I say. I take out my phone and dial her parents.

"Hello?" Natalie answers.

"Hi Natalie. Have you seen Tris?" I ask.

"No, is there a problem?"

"Yeah. She went to take Ellie for a walk and didn't come back. Neither did Ellie."

"Oh gosh, come on over. We'll help you," She says.

"Thanks,"

"Anytime," and we hang up. I grab my jacket and stand.

"We're going to abnegation," I say. Christina is about to follow, but I stop her.

"You can't jump on trains, or you Shauna." I say. They roll their eyes. (if you forgot, they're pregnant)

"I forgot," Shauna says.

"We can!" Christina says. Will holds her back.

"Babe, stay here with Shauna," He says. She huffs and plops down on the couch.

"Fine," She says. Uriah, Zeke, Marlene, Lynn, and Will follow me out the door. We grab guns from the training room and head to the train tracks.

Once we're on, it's a short ride to abnegation. We head quickly to the Prior's house and I knock.

"Hello Four, how are you?" Natalie answers, opening the door. I smile as I embrace her.

"Alright, you?" I say. She sniffles as she pulls away.

"Okay." she replies. We all walk inside and Noah runs to me.

"Hi Four," He says.

"Hey Noah," I say. Natalie holds his shoulders.

"No running," She says. Noah nods.

"Natalie this is Will, Uriah, Zeke, Marlene and Lynn." I introduce.

"Nice to meet you all," She says, with a sweet smile.

"You too," They say in unison.

"Come in, make yourselves comfortable." Natalie says.

"It's too gray in here," Lynn mutters. Marlene elbows her in the stomach, quieting her.

"Would you like anything?" Natalie asks. We shake our heads.

"No thank you. We just need to find Tris." I say.

"Right. I haven't seen her this morning. Nothing suspiscious. We can check the factionless safehouses, maybe she's there," She suggests.

"Right. We'll go, you stay. Thanks for your help," I say. I stand and hug Natalie.

"Anytime. Good luck Tobias," She says in my ear. We leave and head for one of the factionless safehouses, the one my mother is in.

I'm not a big fan of my mother. I still don't forgive her. One, for cheating, and two, for faking her death and leaving me with Marcus. That may be a scar that never heals.
