Tobias

"What happened to you, Tris? They found you on a stretcher, blood leaking through an open wound. Did you know that? I bet you didn't. Anyways, I have to go and.. do stuff. You'd love it if you could actually move around and stuff, but it's nice to tell you about it after."

I whisper into Tris's paralyzed ear. I have been having dreams about her, though they're more vivid than usual. She says she's in a dream state and I have to use this liquid thing to find her. Is it worth it? OR was it just a dream? I shake my head and walk around these empty halls.

We are in what was formerly known as the Amity headquarters, the main hospital. They're treating countless of former Dauntless, but the Erudite (former, of course) have her locked up in a special room because of her condition. They have proved that she can see and hear and taste and smell, but just not move.

That's by hovering something by her, and having her hart beat faster and slower. Obviously more than that, but I'm no Erudite, so I don't really know. They encourage me to visit often, because it makes her heart pump regularly and she's happy. It pains me to see her reduced to this.. mystical state, but I have to try my best to cope. When she's happy, I am.

Thinking about this has exhausted me, and I go to the place I was talking to her about before: the ferris wheel. Yes, while so many of our friends are at risk we're playing paintball. But that's what we do- us former Dauntless. I keep saying 'former' this and that because I can't think of them as normal people; life without factions. Getting to the point,

Amar and I choose teams. Eric and Tori are gone, or else it would've been them, obviously. I feel a little selfish for lasting longer. I choose Christina, Uriah, Marlene, Zeke. Amar has Matthew, Edward, George, and Cara. Yes, they all are playing. Fun draws them away from the pain.

I begin the climb to the top of the Wheel and think about her. My last few dreams she was giving me simple directions. "Get to the top of that Ferris Wheel," she ordered. "You can see the world from up there. It's this little Apothecary shop that Cara and Amar are running, except in the basement some people who are devoted to living the faction life are there.

"They have a secret club of sorts, every second Thursday. Of course they won't give it to you right away, you have to go on some sort of quest. I'll guide you on the way, I promise. I'm always with you, after all, in your heart."

I reach the top, panting and shivering, and locate the Apothecary shop. Sure enough, it's the little place Cara and Amar sometimes sneak off to. I shake my head to clear it. "You're in a battlezone, Tobias. Get yourself together!" I saw Amar aim at Marlene and shrieked, "Marlene, duck!" Looks like I was too late. They'd reached us.

I have one more secret, however. There's this little cave that pops out on all the sides of the paintball zone, so we run in there and pop out right beside their flag. Amar probably got lost in that maze, I smirked. "What are you doing? Uriah, grab it!" I shouted. He looked at me and said, "No, you get it." I shrugged and grabbed the flag.

Everyone cheered and shouted and whooped and laughed. Later in the day I asked Uri why he lat me get it and he exclaimed, "You're Four, Dauntless legend! You can do anything. I didn't think it was fair for me to take it from you."

So I came back to Tris at noon, and something surprised me. She wasn't there! "w+What did you do, where is she is she ok is she.." I trailed off, unable to finish the sentence. "Mr. Eaton, Beatrice is perfectly normal. Shortly after you left she abruptly jumped up and.. walked away. We dob't know where she is, I am sorry, sir."

My heart had crawled up to my throat. Calm down, Tobias. Where would your beautiful, flawless, brave Tris go after you told her about the game? "Of course," I muttered. The Wheel.

Half an hour later I was scaling the ferris wheel in dire hopes of finding my Tris. When I got to the top, sure enough, there she was, looking perfectly normal. "Tobias? I need to tell you something, and fast. If you don't find that potion within 24 hours I will die and the entire world will be stuck in an eternal zombie apocalypse."

Tris

"Now you might think I'm going crazy or something," I murmured, still not turning to look at his face. "But I promise, I'm still your Tris. I'll help with the journey, unless, of course, you don't want me to." I felt a hand on my shoulder and turned slowly around.

Before I knew what hit me there were lips against mine, fingers caressing my cheek, and a hand tangled in my hair. I sighed. "Tobias," I murmured. "Tris," he whispered with love and compassion deep in his voice.

We were both crying, hadn't seen each other alive and well for so long now. I pulled away and whispered, "We have to go," and flipped the switch that took us down. He simply nodded, unwilling to look away from me.

I stared at him. Deep blue eyes, incredible posture, well-dressed, and he was all mine.

"I missed you." It took me a while to notice we said it at the same time.

I have to admit I'm not that great at this kind of stuff, but hope you enjoyed! I couldn't bear to see Tris pass in Allegiant, it was too sad, so I started this up. In others, she is normal and they get marries, but I wanted to add action to it. Just a bit before their happy ending.
