After Allegiant

Chapter 5

Tobias

The plan was simple. We would escape at dawn with anybody we trusted and was willing. We would then find a new place to live. Anywhere really.

Elsewhere was the scariest part of our plan. We truly didn't know what was outside our factional system in old Chicago or past the Bureau.

Before leaving, I decided to go watch the screens that covered the factions. I was anxious to see what my mother was doing or what she had done.

When I walked in, I instantly saw my mother. She was in a black and white room - Candor - and the walls closed in.

I asked the man controlling the screens to turn the sound on for that camera.

I think she chose this room for its exclusivity, but in reality, it wasn't exclusive. There were two windows and several cameras.

"How could you Marcus? I have never done anything against you and yet you still treated me that way."

My father was silent. He wanted her to weep and beg for an answer, but she didn't. Instead, she took the belt off of her waist and started slinging it around.

"Maybe you should see how it feels."

I couldn't watch. I turned my head and heard a snap with the belt. Marcus screamed masculinely.

I turned my head back wanting to see more. I was conflicted in whether on not I wanted Marcus to die. He had, in the end, been somewhat kind. He never officially apologized, but I wouldn't have let him do it anyways.

"Why did I do it, you ask? Because you misbehaved. You weren't Abnegation. You showed Tobias all your ways too. It was only best that I faked your death and sent you away. You weren't meant to be Abnegation. In fact, I have heard rumors that you are also Divergent."

"I am."

"Aha! When I first met you, you didn't tell me what faction you were from."

"I wasn't from one. You're the only one who knows this, and you deserve to die anyways, so say goodbye."

Marcus said nothing. I turned my head because I didn't truly want to see this. I heard a groan come out of Marcus, and I stormed out of the room.

I walked down the unusual pathways wanting to find Tris and kiss her. She was an escape for me. She made me feel like I could do anything even if that meant face reality.

I frantically searched for her as my emotions raged. A torrent of anger enveloped me.

Suddenly, I came across David. We were in a small hallway. I tried to avoid eye contact but that didn't work.

"Four."

"David."

"I heard you were watching your parents. Anything happen?" he said. I could tell he knew something had happened, and he was going to try to twist the knife even further.

"I would love to talk, but I need to find Tris," I said as sitar red to walk away.

Suddenly, I heard a gun shot.

"Don't move," he said in a stern voice.

I didn't move, but I tried to think of a way out of this dark situation. The Dauntless side of me told me to take him on, but the Abnegation side told me not to.

"I know you're leaving. Why are you leaving us so soon?"

"None of your concern."

"I believe it is considering the fact that I'm the one with a gun."

"You're going to kill Tris."

"Why would I do that? She's willing to help."

"But,.."

"Enough. We didn't give permission to you to leave."

"That's why we were escaping."

"I can't let you do that," he said as he approached me slowly.

He was careful to not get to close to me. He knew that I could overpower him if he got too close. I breathed deeply hoping this wasn't the end. This couldn't be the end. We were about to live safely, happily. But, this would be it.

Suddenly, Tris came around the corner behind David. I tried to nod my head towards the gun. Her face was worried and shocked.

"I hope you enjoyed your time with us," he said as he shot the gun.

I looked and
