hey guys. Its been a long time since I wrote. Life has gotten in the way and changed everything as it does. I got back into the divergent world recently and since Jai Courntey (Eric) has always been one of my favorite actors since Spartacus, I couldn't help but wonder what would have happened if he got with a Divergent and didn't know it. After reading about the memory serum in book three I couldn't help myself.
Disclaimer: I do NOT own the Divergent series. I only own my two characters that you meet later on. This will have elements from both the book and the movie.
"I just needed to get away from my father. The abuse was to much. I had to get out of there somehow. I never planned on staying as long as a did. I stayed because I wanted to see if I could fit in somewhere and call it my home. For awhile it was my home and after I found out what Erudite was doing I decided that I was going to get out somehow and become Factionless. Then this year Tris came in and something told me that I couldn't leave." Four told Jack.
They waited for the truth serum to wear off. After the wearing off Jack sat down in front of them.
"I don't know what to do Four. I have no way of protecting my kind here. I'm not in their close group to be able to persuade them to not hurt you guys. I am a Candor leader now but as truthful as I am I wasn't born this way because I am also selfless enough to know that I can't give an evil person what they want."
Before Jack could say anything else people start shooting from all directions. Four pushed Jack down to cover him. Tris ducks and grabs a gun from the floor that got discarded somehow. Everyone is shooting and then as quick as it started it stopped. Everyone was standing up looking around at the attack. Tris goes to walk over to Chris when she sees someone coming behind the wall.
"Chris!" Tris yells
Christina ducks down and Tris shoot at the door. Tris runs over to Christina. Tris and Christina hug and through tears talk about Tris killing Will. Christina says she forgives Tris after her 9th apology. They finally standup and walk over to where four and Jack were standing. With the all the dauntless down everyone is still in shock at how they all got past into Candor.
"Well that was one hell of a scene." Jack said sitting on the table trying to breathe.
Two Candor guys come in carrying a body. They drop the body in front of Jack. To everyone's amazement its Eric with a cut to his forehead and blood spilling from his shoulder.
"We found him outside the door. I guess he's the person you shot at." one of the guys says.
Four points the gun at Eric when he starts squirming. Eric's eyes open slowly. He blinks a couple of times at the gun in front of his face.
"Four wait!" Tris says stopping him.
But it's not Tris's telling him to stop that makes him put the gun down but the fear in Eric's eyes. He had never seen that look on Eric before.
"Eric?" Four says questioning.
"Who are you?" Eric asks with a hint of fear in his voice.
"Who are you people?" Eric says backing away fear evident on his face.
Nobody said anything. It was probably due to shock. Everyone in the room just looked at the man on the floor and wondered when he was going to become cocky Eric again and prove that he was joking. But for some reason it never happened, the man just kept asking who we all were and why were here.
The thought on everyone's mind was if he was acting to keep from being killed or if he really didn't know what was going on. But the scarier thought was that if he wasn't faking it then what happened to Eric to make him loose his memory.
Short I know. I'll make the next chapter longer.
