Tobias' POV:
It's been an hour since we crossed the wall. All we can see is pitch black, and the car is running low on fuel. The silence of everything is killing me until, someone finally speaks up.
"So, what exactly are we looking for? Something that isn't black?"
I couldn't see this someone, but I immediately knew it was Peter, because of his mocking tone. We all knew what we were looking for, a building or people, but I knew that he was only trying to get everyone's mind off of Tris and Uriah. Throughout the whole ride I've been regretting not being with her, but I knew Uriah would be safer there than out here. My thoughts are still spinning when I hear a sound that I recognize. The sound of a person.
"Drop your weapons and step out of the vehicle!" shouted a voice.
We do as the voice says and step out of the truck, only to be welcomed by a blinding light hitting our faces.
"ARG!" Peter screams, clutching his face and falling to the ground. God, he wouldn't have survived more than one day in Dauntless.
We are soon being lead into a giant building, illuminated via the powerful lights, by hefty guards. After being led down a series of halls, we are thrown into a room with chairs for all of us.
"David will be in here soon," my guard scowls as he slams the door.
"Looks like someone hates their job," mumbles Christina slouching down in her chair.
I look around the room and see things I've never seen before. A picture of a man standing in front of a bird-like object wearing the strangest attire, a flag tacked to the wall along with a plaque that says, 'United States Of America', and much more. Before I can get a better look at things, a man walks into the room and sits at the head of the table.
"Hello," he says, his voice worn, "My name is David. Welcome to the Compound."
