Chapter 2:
Tris POV:
I set up a bag with my most important things and so does Uriah. He's been living in my house, try to help me cope with everything. Then I hear the patter of tiny footsteps. It's my two year old daughter, Natalie Christina Prior. I hold her in my arms. It is so sad that Tobias had never gotten to see his daughter until now. I wanted her to have a better life than this, but I couldn't let go of her. Uriah has been helping me with her, but she knows that he is not her father.
"Mommy!" She says in her baby voice. I crouch down and look at her eyes. They are Tobias's eyes.
"Hi, Baby! What's wrong?" Natalie holds up her teddy bear.
"Can I bring Teddy with me?" She asks with her bright eyes shining.
I nod, "Don't forget him, alright?" She nods. Someone knocks at the door and I look through the peephole. It's Tobias and Christina. "Uriah," I yell softly, "Are you ready?" He comes to the door with the three hundred dollars him and me share. He nods. I open the door and Tobias steps in and swings me around.
"I missed you so much!" I smile and see his eyes twinkling, just the way Natalie's does.
Tobias POV:
Tris is standing there and I can't control myself, I lift her and swing her in circles. Zeke runs to Uriah and hugs him. "I missed you so much!" I tell her and her eyes are full of tears. I look at the little girl who is staring at us. "Who's this little girl?"
The little girl looks up at me with a spark in her eyes, "I'm not a little girl!" Just like her mother, I smile.
Tris looks up at me, "It's your daughter, Tobias." My face lights up, "She has your eyes."
Christina runs up to me and hugs her. "Ohmygosh! What's her name?" I smile at how excited she is.
"Natalie Christina Prior." Tris say and Christina's eyes light up. "You're the godmother and Uriah is the godfather."
I pick up Natalie despite her efforts to get away. Tris walks up to her, "It's okay, Natalie. This is your daddy." She smiles and wraps her arms around my neck. Tris whispers into my ear, "She has been waiting for you."
There is a knock on the door. Tris says quietly, "Hide in the bathroom! Leave Nat and Uriah here." Uriah has to pry Nat off from me and Zeke has to restrain me from coming toward Tris. She puts my finger to my lips and Nat is quiet.
Tris opens the door and Caleb walks in. "We don't have much time, are you ready?" She nods and tells us that we can come out.
We all run out the door and Christina hands Tris a gun. Uriah picks us Nat and we run out the door. Nita starts running after me with a gun. I tell Uriah to shield Nat. He does and they evade the bullets. We all get onto a helicopter and I see Tris shooting officers left and right. "Tris, don't be stupid! Get up here!"
"No! You have to save Natalie. She needs her father!" I look at her, she is still using the better choice against me.
"She needs her mother, too." I hop off of the helicopter and land by Tris's side, "Remember that promise I made you: If you die, I die, too."
"No." She says shaking your head, "You didn't do it before."
"I had a feeling that you were still alive. Believe me, in another month or so I really was going to kill myself." With that she is about to get onto the copter, but is shot in the leg. I tell them to go and the helicopter lifts into the air with my daughter.
Tris starts screaming hysterically, "No! My baby! No!" I try to soothe her. I pick her up, but Nita catches us. Tris takes the gun and shoots near Nita's feet, but not close enough. Officers tackle us and we are separated. Tris is fighting her way back to me and she is able to hold onto my neck.
"Tris, I won't let them separate us. Not again." I hold her head close to my chest, while I lift up a gun to a running Nita. The bullets hit her in her legs and arms. The officers run to her instead of me. But there are more, way more. They tackle us, but Tris's grip on me is too strong for them.
Nita gasps, "Two divergent, twice the fun." Tris cries into my shirt.
"We will come peacefully and long as you let us stay together." Nita nods as another officer lifts her up and brings her to a compound.
I walk into Tris's apartment and set her down, but she crawls back on top of me. She sits on my lap with her head against my chest. I sway Tris from side to side. She says quietly, "I was trying to protect you."
We are quiet and I say in a soft voice, "I know. That's why I'm not angry."
"I never wanted this to happen." She begins to sob again and it upsets me.
I stroke her honey colored hair. "It's okay, Baby."
"Did Nat get out?" She asks and I nod. With a sigh of relief, she begins to relax.
"They will save us." I tell her. She nods and sniffles.
"I know, but will we make it that long?" Tris says with a look of horror in her blue eyes.
