Peters grip leaves a red mark on my wrist, and two hours later, it hasn't gone away. I sit on my bed, and try not to remember. It doesn't work.

Flashback

When Peter lets go of my wrist, I rub it. I can still feel the sting. I can almost see the anger coming out of Peter.

"Why didn't you come visit me?" He hisses, I don't say anything, because as much as I don't want to admit it, right now I'm terrified.

"Answer me when I ask you a question!" He yells. He walks over to me and slaps me, I don't flinch or show any sign of pain. I don't want to let him know he hurt me.

"I was scared." I tell him, and I watch a grin slowly spread across his face.

"Scared of what?" He mocks, I think as hard as I can until I come up with a good lie.

"I was scared that you were going to kill Christina if I made you mad, and I didn't want to take that chance." I thought my lie was pretty convincing, but apparently Peter didn't.

"Liar!" He shouts, "Don't fucking lie to me, it won't help you." I gulp.

"I don't have to tell you." I say defiantly,

"Then I guess Christina better hope she's not in the dorms tonight." He threatens, and the words are coming out of my mouth before I even tell them to.

"You! I was scared of you. Please don't hurt my friends." I silently scold myself for begging Peter, but at the same time I don't care. As long as my friends are safe.

"That's smart of you." He says, and he doesn't seem to be joking or mocking me or anything. "You should be, but you should also be scared of him." I'm still confused that Peter seemed so sincere, but then the door opens and I don't have time to worry about Peter. Eric walks in the door and picks me up off the chair, Peter helps them and they carry me out the door.

I shake the flashback off as Tobias walks in the room.

"Can I talk to you?" He asks, I nod my head because I have to get out of this room. I don't care where we're going. He grabs my hand and pulls me out the room. We don't talk much, because we are still upset by the death of my friend, and I'm mad at him.

Eric's hand covers my mouth, but I still attempt to scream. I kick, but they don't seem to realize, but then I bite Eric's hand and he lets go long enough for me to let out a scream. Eric pulls a rag over my mouth and ties it and then they pick me up again.

Peter and Eric pull me to the chasm. Eric takes a rope out from one of his many, extremely large pockets, and Peter holds me down as they tie me to the rail.

I can't move because of Peter, and in a few minutes I'm tied to the rail. Peter lets go and Eric steps toward me.

"Bitch." He says, "You bit me, you'll pay for that." He punches me in the ribs where I still have not fully healed, but I don't even realize, because I see Tobias, Will, and Al running toward us. They look furious, but I shake my head over and over again. 'They can't come, please let them get the message and turn around.' I prey to a god that I don't believe in.

It doesn't work, they are still heading towards me when Eric punches me again, and now they are only a few seconds away. Eric hits me one last time when Al and Will attack Peter. Now that Peter is gone, Eric is holding my arms so I can't leave. Tobias comes towards us slowly.

"Let her go." He says calmly, I close my eyes.

"No, Four. Please." I beg, but he doesn't listen and he steps closer. When he takes that step, Eric's grip tightens.

"She wants to stay with me." Eric says, "Don't you, Tris?" I gulp and nod my head, Tobias looks like he is going to say something, but we are all distracted by a scream from Al, he looks like he's in pain. He is laying on the floor while Will punches Peter in the face. I bring my attention back to my situation when Tobias punches Eric in the jaw, when he hits the floor, Tobias goes to kick him again.

"No Tobias!" I shout. I'm crying now but I don't care. "Please, please he'll hurt my friends!" I try to pull Tobias away, but he just kicks Eric one more time before his body goes limp. When our fight is over, I start to realize how bad my injuries are. There's cuts all over my face, but it's my ribs and temple that concern me. There's a big mark on my temple which is turning blue, and I start to feel dizzy. I start to fall, and Tobias catches me, but he touches my ribs in the process. I start to see black spots around my vision. When Tobias picks me up, I struggle, remembering Al and Will, but I see Will right next to me.

I don't have the strength to ask where Al is, and the last thing I remember is Tobias carrying me through the compound.

We reach the train tracks and jump on, even though I haven't done this many times, it seems natural to me. When we settle down on the train, Tobias decides to break the silence.

"Tris, I'm sorry. I know I shouldn't have knocked you out, and I know you didn't want me to attack Eric and Peter. I'm sorry Al died, it's my fault. But... I don't regret it. I'm just happy your safe." When he says this, I close my eyes and look for the strength I need to say this.

"I don't need your help Tobias, you betrayed me, and you're the reason one of my friends is dead and my other friends are in danger. Just leave me alone, Four." When I use his nickname, he flinches, as if I punched him.

"Do not use my name as a weapon against me" He says, I look into his eyes and see hurt that I can tell he is trying hard to hide, because after all why should he care? "I'm sorry, and I wish you could forgive me, but you're clearly not going to. If you want to talk to me though... I'm here." He kisses me on the lips and runs to jump of the train, leaving me there alone. I don't know what happened, why did he kiss me? Millions of questions run through my mind as I sit there motionless, trying to figure out what just happened.

So... Yes, I had Al die. I had him die protecting Tris, because I always liked him in the books and I thought he should have died differently. Obviously I hated when he attacked Tris, but I always thought he was nice until then. Anyways, thanks for reading!
