Tobias:
She was better then, she wasn't a monster. A nurse comes into Christina's room and begins fidgeting around her side. "Is she unconscious? In a coma? Sleeping? What's wrong with her?" I ask rudely.
"Excuse me sir, what connection do you have to her? You don't sound extremely happy that she is alive." I know I need to work on the Amity side of me, I am still working on it. I wish I could be nice whenever I wanted, I wish I could be genuine.
"An old friend." I choke down my disgust at calling her a friend.
"Okay, she's just sleeping, she's been waking up spontaneously. Always shouting the numbers 4 and 6, and asking why. She has also been saying things like don't hurt me or I wasn't going to kill her again. Has she killed anybody before?" she was staring at me, evaluating me by my response.
"No but she attempted to kill another girl, Beatrice Prior, Room 386, she stabbed her 24 times repeatedly in the legs. I don't even recognise her anymore." She accepts my answer and I know they don't suspect me.
"What did you say your name was again? Wasn't it something odd, like a number? Have you anything to say?" I am not free, they suspect me more than anyone else. I could give myself up or call myself Tobias. The name I tried so hard to forget, "No, my name is Tobias." I despise the part of me that belonged to my father. She was taken back, expecting me to give in, that I would be confess as Four.
"Oh, I see. Well," She was interrupted by an awakening Christina who began shouting and thrashing around her hospital bed. Sinking back into her mattress with fear. I am stunned by the effect my actions have on her. She is staring at me, viciously, while the nurse is trying to inject her with a sedative, she see the intensity of her stare and realises that something is wrong. Christina's rage and fear begins to ease as unconsciousness brings her back into oblivion. "Who are you?" the nurse asks urgently. "What did you do to this girl? What have you done to cause her such emotional harm and distress? Tell me now and I won't hand you into authorities but if you refuse I will call the police." I have no choice but to tell her the truth, the entire truth.
"My real name is Tobias Eaton, son of Marcus Eaton in the Chicago experiment. I was her instructor when she joined Dauntless. She became best friends with the girl I love. That girl I love is Beatrice Prior. Beatrice, Tris was stabbed 24 times by her ex-best friend. The reason because, under a simulation back in Chicago Tris had to kill her friend and Christina's boyfriend, Will. Christina has held a grudge. She came onto me, attacking me, pressuring me to be unfaithful to the one I love. She then lied to Tris, saying that I abused her, I wanted to kill her other most recent boyfriend who was like a brother to me. She then attacked Tris, hiding in our apartment with a knife then she began chasing her. Christina caught Tris, and began stabbing her, killing her. This has happened before to Tris, while we were still in Dauntless. Are you familiar with the Chicago experiment?" She nods, overwhelmed. "Then you will know that in Dauntless we have a chasm, a long drop into a strong current of water, immediate death. Tris was being held by three teenage boys by her throat over that chasm. I found her. I got hold of the closest attacker and began hitting him. Something happened, I blanked out or lost consciousness and I continued hitting him. Only when she said my name that I realised what I was doing. She got me out of it and I helped her and took care of her. The same thing happened with Christina, I blanked out and lost control, I had been unaware of my actions in the urgency of saving Tris. She has already died once, when I wasn't there, I wasn't going to let her die again. That is what happened, that is what caused her distress and that is why I am going back to the girl I love." At that I walked out, back to the girl love. I vow to myself now, to always be there for her, even in my darkest moment.
