Tris POV

I'm asleep in my house at Rio. The beds colder with out him being beside me but I've gotten use to the loss of his presence beside me. It's around 2 am in the morning. When I was woken rudely by the ringing and buzzing of my phone. After a moment of noticing that it's not going to stop. I sit up in my bed stretching my arms and legs before reaching over to the night stand to grab my phone.

I swipe it to answer and say in a groggy voice. "Hello?" I ask it as more than a question. "We need to talk about Four" as soon the words leave his mouth, I know exactly who it is even if I can see his face. "Oh Hey Zeke, what's up" I say waking up a little more as the conversation continues.

"Um Tris I don't know how to say this, but you have to understand I wasn't apart of this" he stresses. "Come on Zeke get on with it" I say getting impatient. It sounds like he takes a breath and says in a quiet voice almost a whisper. "Tris, Four doesn't remember you"...

Four POV

Jeanine stands at the door. "Where have you both been" she says in a stern voice. I look to Amar and see he has put away the little food he had left and is walking towards me.

"Well Jeanine we went to get food, have you had Erudite's food it gives you gas" he says looking serious. If it wasn't Jeanine standing in front of us, I would burst out laughing. But I keep myself calm and emotionless.

"Plus Four was in the mood for tacos" he says with a smile. She looks from Amar who is still smiling happily and looks to me than back to Amar. "How stupid do you think I am" she says in an emotionless voice. But the look in her eye says she's mad. In stead of answering we both shake our heads no.

We continue to talk from us to Jeanine. She looks pissed and tells us to shut up. "You know what" she smirks before opening the door and three men enter the room. They all walk straight up to Amar and grab his arms and pull them behind his back pushing him to the floor. I try to fight it but one of the men hold me so I can't move no matter how hard I struggle. She looks at me than looks to one of the men holding Amar. "Tony, Kill him" she says in a demanding voice, flicking her wrist in a go away motion and they start to lift him off the floor.

He started to struggle out of the men's grip. As I start to yell at Jeanine saying things like "let him go" or "Amar!" But she only watches as her men drag, one of my only friends out to his execution. I look at Jeanine, with tear burning my eyes but I will not let them spill over. "Why did you do that?" I ask slightly breathless from shock and watch as a smirk appears on her face tugging at her lips.

"Four he was compromised, I don't know how long through but I had Intel saying he was definitely working for the enemy, you will thank me later" she smiles and I frown struggle some more. But she tells them to release me and is about to continue but there is a loud and desperate knock at the door. She pauses and looks to me one final time telling the man to hold me again before opening the front door. One of the men that took Amar out of the room storms in breathless.

"There's been a problem" he says still panting clutching at his knees. He does recover quickly and heads out of the room Jeanine following close behind him. Before leaving though she says in a dangerous voice. "He did this to himself, he knew the consequences of double crossing me and now he is paying the price" she takes a breath "I suggest you learn from his mistakes" and with that she leaves telling the man that has been holding me to release me shutting the door behind them.

After they leave I don't know what to think. I continue to stand in my living room stareing at the door in front of me. Why would they kill him. I think to my self over and over again. I can't sleep now that this has all happened. So I sit in my living room watching what seems like endless commercials. When I finally drift off to sleep with the same word playing in my head. They killed him...
