AN- Hey guys! I decided to write an alternate ending for Allegiant because I think anyone who read it would agree that the ending was murder to the soul! Anyway, please read and please review. (^ _ ^') I hope you all like it!
PS. There is going to be some lines that are from or very similar to lines in Allegiant for a time.
Disclaimer- I do not own the Divergent series or any of its characters.
Ch 1 (Starting from where Tris and David are in the Weapons Lab)
Tris
I hear a beep, and a churning sound.
As I slide to the floor, the pain that engulfs me is agonizing. I feel two main areas white hot with pain: one in the fleshy part of my thigh and another in my side. I want to scream, but the world seems hazy and slurred; I am so numb, yet everything hurts. The world is blurred into a smear of colors and sounds, tinted red with blood. My blood.
I catch a glimpse of David slumped in his chair, though from the weight of guilt or the wieght of the memory serum, I don't know.
And my mother is walking out from behind him.
She is still wearing her Abnegation clothing, gray and plain, and her hair is still tied in the modest knot that lies at the nape of her neck. Her clothes, the clothes she died in, are still stained with her blood and punctured with bullet holes through which I can see her injuries. But they've stopped bleeding. It is like the picture of her death frozen in her last moment, stuck for eternity. The thought runs through my head as quickly and sharply as a flash of lightening. I am dead too then. But no, I can't be dead. The pain is much too excruciating for me to have crossed the line yet into eternal peace.
I am teetering on that line.
"Am I done?" I ask my mother, who comes over and places her hand on my shoulder. I am surprised by its warmth. Wasn't death supposed to be cold?
My mother purses her lips, her eyes shining with gathering tears. "That's up to you."
Images and moments circled through my mind. Caleb telling me to be selfless, but to also think of myself. Christina and I jumping out of the train together for the first time during Dauntless initiation. Tobias' lips soft yet strong on the ravens tattooed on my collarbone.
"What about you and dad?" I ask her.
She gives me a smile that reached her eyes, however heartbreakingly sad. "We're together. We're together in the end."
With a smile, I recall her and my father deciding to join Abnegation together, disobeying orders for the sake of their love.
"I know." I say back to her.
She strokes a stray hair from my forehead behind my ear caringly, her warmth radiating off her like a halo. "So what do you want to do, sweetie?"
I feel the lure of my life tugging me. "I want to stay."
Her smile widened. "I thought so." She touched her forehead to mine, and the last thing I saw was her angelic face.
