A/N: Hey guys! Hope it wasn't too long of a wait! It is almost 2 in the morning, I'm out of town, and at a friends house, but I couldn't sleep, so I wrote a chapter. Please let me know what you think and please don't forget to R&R!
Here is chapter 26:
Chapter 26
TOBIAS'S POV
The next day, Tris and I get up around noon and head over to the control room to go get a picture of the tattoo of the guy we are looking for. Once it is printed, we head over to the tattoo parlor and see Tori immediately. "Hey, Tori! Do you got a minute?" Tris asks her when we reach her station. "Yeah sure. What's up?" "We need to speak in private," I tell her. "OK. Lets go to the back room." Once we get there, Tris speaks up,"OK, Tori, we are looking for the man with this tattoo," Tris explains as she hands Tori the photo,"he's the guy who lead the attack in the cafeteria last night. I know you gave him that tattoo because of the way it is made. We need to find this guy, so who is he?" "Alright, I suppose I can tell you guys since this is obviously an emergency, normally I wouldn't betray client confidentiality, but I can make an exception here. Anyway, that tattoo actually doesn't belong to a Dauntless member, but rather, to the brother of an ex- leader. That's Bruce's brother, Marcus. Marcus Eaton." I instantly tense at my father's name. Shit. Tris takes my hand and squeezes it tightly, calming me a bit. "Wait a second," Tris continues,"So you're telling me that the former leader of Dauntless was the brother of the current Abnegation leader Marcus?" "That is exactly what I'm saying, Tris." Holy Shit. That makes Bruce my uncle. "So then Bruce was Abnegation born, correct?" I ask. "Yep." Ok, Thanks Tori," Tris says,"one last thing. We may arrest him, so to prove his identity, we will need you to testify in court. Can you do that?" "Yeah I can, and I have the forms he signed to get his tattoo, and the original hand drawn design, which he also signed, so that shouldn't be a problem. Would you like a copy of both of those with my signature now?" "Yes please. Thanks Tori!" "No problem, Tris!"
After the conversation with Tori is over, I drag Tris to the apartment so we can figure things out. "Tris, you know what this means?" "Of course I do. This means that Marcus was the one who raped and killed Malia, taped it, and sent it to Max." "Here's another thought Tris: was M…M…Marcus," I stutter saying my father's name,"the one who created the file 'Corn Starch'? "That doesn't matter right now, Tobias, we need to go to Abnegation and arrest him for attacking Dauntless!" "Wait, Tris! How did he get guns and people to help him carry out the attack on Dauntless? We need to prove that because Abnegation doesn't even allow fire arms, and no one in Abnegation would carry out an attack. Taking lives is much too selfish for the Abnegation." "Well, the way I see it, is that the only way he could get anyone to launch an attack with would be by either getting help from Erudite, Candor, or possibly the factionless, but even then, why would they follow him? Unless…" "Unless what, Tris?" "Unless he had access to some kind of serum that could manipulate people into following him!" "Tris, that's absurd! First of all, I highly doubt the factionless would follow him because, as you know, my mother is the leader of the factionless, so she wouldn't work with him. Candor wouldn't put on masks for an attack because they would want to be honest about who they are, even during an attack. That only leaves Erudite. Erudite can make weapons, so it would have to be them." "However, Erudite won't make weapons without an order, but the only person who could make that order is…" "Jeanine!" we both say in unison. "So that means," Tris continues,"Jeanine is in on this, but we can't prove that right now, but we can prove that Marcus was the one who attacked." "Yeah, but we can't just waltz into Abnegation and arrest a faction leader." "You're right Tobias, except that I can get the leader of Candor, Jack Kang, to issue a warrant for Marcus's arrest if I can prove that he has committed a crime. I bet that if we go to the control room and pull up the security footage for when we were attacked and show it to him, he'll issue the warrant." "We better do this now then." "I agree. Lets go."
Once we get the footage from the control room, we head straight to Candor. Once there, Tris show's the Candor receptionist her badge and leads us to Jack Kang's office. We then knock on his door. "Come in!" he chirps from the other side. We go in, and as I close the door behind me, Jack starts to address Tris,"Ah, Officer Prior. How nice to see you again. Do you need another warrant?" "Yes, Mr. Kang, I do." "For whom?" "Marcus Eaton." "The faction leader? You know I don't usually ask you why you need a warrant for arrest because you've always proved to be arresting the right people, but for a faction leader, I'm going to need some proof." "Right here, Mr. Kang," I chime in as I pull out and hand him the flash drive containing the footage of the attack. He inserts it into his computer and the footage pops up instantly. After watching it he then says,"I don't see Marcus." "Here," Tris says as she hands him the form Marcus signed for the tattoo, Tori's hand signed copy of the original drawing, and a picture of the tattoo that we took earlier. "If you look closely at the man who is speaking, you will see the same tattoo as the one hand drawn by Tori and signed by both her and Marcus." "I'd know Marcus's signature anywhere, and that is it for sure. I can't believe that I have to do this, but I'll go ahead and write you that warrant right now." "Thank you Mr. Kang."
After we get the warrant ready to go, we take off for Abnegation. I have no idea what to expect when we get there, because I haven't been there in a long time. I hope this goes well. I thought I'd never have to face this man again, but I have no choice, because he could hurt Tris if he tries to resist arrest. I can't let him do that, so I have to do this. Once we arrive at Abnegation headquarters, Tris pulls out her badge to show to the people guarding the meeting room. She tells them that it is an emergency, so they let her in, and when we step inside, I can't help but lock eyes with my father. "Beatrice, what is the meaning of this?" her father bellows,"you know you can't just walk into a council meeting." "Dad, I have a warrant," she says, avoiding eye contact with him,"Marcus Eaton, will you please come over here." "Uh, ok, but this no way to talk to a faction leader young lady." She looks at him, cocking her head and smirking at him. "Oh, I can't talk to you anyway I want because I think you will no longer be a faction leader. Marcus Eaton, you are under arrest for attacking Dauntless and for the rape and murder of Malia Anderson," she announced as she cuffs him. "Why I never," he says innocently, but we both no better. "Tobias, help me out here, son. You know I didn't do any of that," he pleads. I look at him coldly, trying to prove to myself that I'm not afraid of him any more. Mr. Prior screams something at Tris, but we both ignore him and lead Marcus to the waiting cop car. We stuff him inside, and the car drives away, but not before Tris recites his rights to him. "Alright," Tris says soon after the car is gone,"I have to call Jack Kang and tell him that Marcus has been arrested and that I want to set a date for him to be interrogated under the truth serum, but knowing Mr. Kang, he'll allow me to do the interrogation today because he would want the trial for a faction leader to be done and out of the way as soon as possible because of all the negative attention it will attract, so why don't we head back to Candor and I'll call him on the way there." "Sounds like a plan to me Tris!" "Alright then, lets go."
