Shared Pain – Chapter One
Tris POV
Two years ago our leader Marcus Eaton's son left Abnegation to go to Dauntless, our leader was left alone since his wife Evelyn " died" ten years ago leaving him with just his son. When his son left he was seen as a traitor to the people of our faction. They don't know why he left but the Erudite believe it was because Marcus abused him until he was 16 years old.
So on the day of his Choosing Ceremony he left to escape his father's abuse. His name was Tobias Eaton. Nobody knows the real story except for Tobias and I. We weren't friends, best friends, and we were never in a relationship if that's what you were wondering. I've never even seen him in person, but I do know that the reason he left Abnegation was because of his father Marcus and a faction that supposedly believed in helping others when in reality they never helped him.
Tobias' story is the reason why I'm on the train headed to Dauntless. I had to escape. I couldn't stay in a faction I hated with all my heart. Don't get me wrong I used to love Abnegation and it's lifestyle as a child, but as I grew older I saw it for what it really was. A corrupt faction like all the others, and it's all because of one man. His name is Marcus Eaton.
"They're jumping!" Someone says. I look out the car door and watch as members of Dauntless jump onto the rooftop of an oncoming building. I look at my friend Christina and nod. I stand up getting ready to jump but Christina grabs my hand. I turn and look at her questionably.
"I can't do this unless someone drags me." I nod and give her a reassuring smile. We walk towards the car door and I face her.
"On the count of three" I say. She nods and we both get ready to jump off.
"THREE" I scream and jump out the car door with her. I curl up into a ball and roll onto the roof of the building and jump up. I look over and see Christina. She looks at me and I say "Woo we made it out alive!" She laughs at my joke and gets up.
"Yeah we did" she say. We both smile.
