Divergent High School

Chapter 1

Tris POV

I'm on the plane, about 30 minutes from landing. I didn't want to leave my friends, well, those I had left, but my parents thought it might be good for me to get out of the hustle and bustle of Chicago. They sent me to Napa, California to live with my aunt Tori. I can't believe that my own parents didn't believe what had happened to me.

Flashback

I was walking home from school, when I passed an alley. In it I could barely make out Drew, with is friend Al. Well, my friend Al. I kept walking, and they followed me. I got scared and started to walk faster. As I turned the corner onto my street, Al was standing there, blocking my path home. He hit me on the head with something, and everything went black.

When I came to, I had no idea where I was, but I had to get out of there. I tried to move, but my hands and feet were tied up. I could just barely make out the fact that Al and Drew were in front of me, waiting. They were almost about to let me go, when Al realized he didn't get a turn at me. He turned to talk to Drew and then Drew walked over to me, untied me and held me down. Then Al faced me and said, "You know you want this." I tried to get away, but he had a knife.

He looked me up and down and cut my clothes of. I struggled to get away, but he held the knife to me and said, "If you struggle, I won't hesitate to kill you. And don't bother screaming, no one can hear you anyway." He held the knife to my chest and cut and 'x', and just below my ribs, was another one.

Thats when I noticed what he was going to do. I tried to scream, but Drew covered my mouth and held his knife to my throat. That's when Al unzipped his pants, and got inside me. I let out a bloodcurdling scream and they both hit me. Al cut me one more time on the leg and then I was knocked out cold.

When I came to, I was in my bed, and my head was throbbing. I looked down and noticed that my wounds were bandaged and there was a note on my nightstand. "If you tell anyone, I will kill you. -Al" I guess I started becoming more antisocial until my parents thought it would be a good idea to send me to my aunts house. So here I am.

End Flashback

I texted Tori to let her know we had landed. She texted back saying she was already here. I got off of then plane and hugged her. She was the only one I ever told what happened, only because I knew Al and Drew would never find out. She was always very supportive of me not wanting to tell anyone, and she didn't pressure me to tell other people.

"I hope you don't mind, I have to stop at the restaurant first." I looked at her and said it was fine. She got out of the car and went inside, got something, and came back out and we left.

We drove in silence back to her house. I already had most of my stuff shipped here, so I only had my carry-on and my luggage. I unpacked slowly and then laid down to rest. The time was 3:03. When I woke back up, it was 6:00 and Tori came to get me for dinner. We ate at her restaurant, Tori's Place, and I sat in her office, quietly drawing while she worked. It got really loud, really fast, so I peeked out and saw a group of teenagers, about my age. Then, a girl with short brown hair saw me and ran to me before I could shut the door. She looked at me and said, "Hi! My name's Christina! This is Shauna, Marlene, Lynn, Uriah, Zeke, Will, and Four." I said, "Hi, I'm Tris." They looked at me, waiting for more, but I excused myself and went to the office.

Tori POV

They all looked to me, wondering why Tris was so cut off. I looked at them all and said, "She doesn't like to talk about why she came here, or her past, so I suggest you don't even ask her."

They asked what they could do to help, and I said, "Try to be her friend. It may seem difficult, but just try." They all nodded and left. It was closing time, so I found Tris and headed home. I told her that we're going shopping for her school supplies tomorrow, so she can't go to the gym. She groaned but left it at that.

The next day, I took her shopping for school clothes and supplies and she got supplies, but her clothes option were pretty limited because of the scars. She doesn't like to wear V-necks, but she owns some. She also won't even go swimming because of the scars under her ribs and on her stomach.

School starts on Monday and she hasn't left her room since she's got here, unless I forced her into it. She has a car, so I don't need to drive her, I just hope they'll all be welcoming and friendly to her. She needs it.
