Authors Note: This is my first fanfiction, so please be understanding if there are so issues. Oh! And please review/favorite/follow that would mean so much.

Tobias's POV
Tris, no, why did this happen! It has been exactly one week since Tris's death and I can barely comprehend what is going on around me. I have not eaten anything except for what Christina has shoved down my throat, literally. Christina has been really helpful but I can't imagine what pain she is going through. As for Caleb, well, he and I have not been talking, or even acknowledging each others existence not that it's a surprise or anything but still. We are having a meeting with David, whom I despise to talk about something that I don't know what yet because it is supposed to be 'top secret'.
"Four, do you want to walk to the meeting with me?" Christina asked. Her face was streaked with tears, she has been crying again. I nodded and we walked together in silence.
"Thanks for walking with me." I told Christina, she gave a grim smile. Life isn't the same without Tris, obviously, but I always think that.
"Okay, everybody, please take a seat." David said. I glared at him and sat down at the table next to Christina and Zeke. Zeke was still messed up about Uriah, I'm not blaming him, I mean it was his brother.
"Okay, so ever since the death of Beatrice-" David began.
"Tris, its Tris." I interrupted David choking on saying Tris's name.
"Ever since the death of Tris Prior," David continued "Our scientists have been working non stop on developing a serum that can bring people who..are...um...dead." My skin tingles. Zeke and I looked at each other, his eyes were wide and starting to well up with tears, I then looked at Christina who was crying, I reached over and gave her a hug and I, myself, began crying.
"Okay, so we have been thinking that we should test this serum on Tris and Uriah, however we need consent from a parent since they are both under the age of 18." David walked over to Zeke and handed him a piece of paper and a pen. "Unfortunately, there is no family to give consent that is here right now."
"Caleb." I said and cleared my throat "Caleb can give consent."
"Yes, we know about Caleb, but I don't know if you have been informed but he left back to the city this morning." Christina started sobbing and I pulled her back into an embrace, she soaked my shirt. Wait Tris can't be brought back if we can't get Caleb to sign?
"I can sign it." I started to panic.
"Well, Tobias-"
"Don't call me that, its Four to you, David." I snapped.
"Okay, but you aren't family with Tris."
"I AM THE CLOSEST THING SHE HAS TO FAMILY, NOW LET ME SIGN THE PAPER!" At that, David handed me the paper and pen and Zeke and I signed the paper.
"We will inject the serum in four hours from now, so at 2:00." In the meantime Christina and I went to cafeteria and got a cup of coffee.
Four hours later
Finally the time came where I could see Tris again. Zeke, Christina, and I all walked along with some doctors to a dark room where they kept Uriah and Tris. They were laid on a table. One of the doctors had two syringes full of a green liquid. He walked over to Uriah and injected him in the side of his neck, he then grabbed the other syringe and injected it in Tris' neck.
"This serum should take effect in ten minutes." the doctors left and that left Zeke, Christina, and I. I sat down in the chair right by Tris and grabbed her hand.
"You know, I think I'm going to leave you guys, Four, please get me ASAP when Tris wakes up." Christina said.
"Of course, and Christina, you can call me Tobias."
"I know," she smiled "But I met you with the name Four and I just feel better calling you by the name Four." I nodded my head, and she was gone. Zeke and I waited a dreadful ten minutes. I squeezed her hand tighter, it wasn't working. Zeke looked at me with a panicked face, I gave him a panicked face back, what are we going to do if this doesn't work? I looked at Tris, longing to see those beautiful grey-blue eyes and feel her soft lips against mine, and see her smile. I look at Zeke and then back at Tris. I could've sworn I saw her eyes flicker.
