Chapter 21
After I got off the train, everything was a blur. I vaguely remember talking to Christina, I have no idea what about, and the next few days, I have no idea what I did.
I remember Christina taking me shopping. I think I'm happy that I can't remember what happened, Will said that it was three hours! Do you know what I could have done with the three hours? Honestly, I don't know, I probably would have been in the training room running laps like I do most nights.
The only thing I realise is that I'm sitting in a room. From what I have learned, it's the room where you wait to go into the fear landscapes and hear my name being called out.
"Tris!" Four yelled. I look up with what I can assume to be a look of shock and hand over to the door where he is standing.
As I walk I realise that I'm one of the only people left.
I walk into the room and sit down on the chair without him saying anything. The room is simple, it has a computer, a rolling with a mettle with a syringe with the simulation serum and a chair in the middle of the room that looks like one you would sit in when you go to the dentist.
"Tris?" Four questions.
"Uhh?" I ask back.
"I asked if you were okay, you seemed like you weren't there for a while." Four explains.
"Oh, ya, sorry, just thinking," I say, however, he doesn't seem convinced. "I'm fine Four, don't worry about it."
Even if he doesn't seem convinced, he lets it go.
"This is gonna put you through your worst fears. Well, one of."
"Your worst or the first one it finds?" I ask, I just wanted to know.
"Uhm, usually it's the one that you know. So if you know you fear heights, that's the one it will most likely show." I just nod.
He takes whatever hair I have on my hair and pushes it back. He aligns the needle of the syringe with my neck and pushed the needle in.
I feel no pain when the needle goes in or when the serum enterned my bloodstream.
I don't know if I imagined it but I swear I heard Four say be brave Tris. And then I was out.
All I see is black. I know I'm not afraid of the dark so I keep looking.
I see something, or I think I do. I decide to walk towards the figure in the distance. As I get closer, I see it's my brother jack. I keep walking wanting to know what it is happening.
As I get closer, I see what I fear.
It's not a person, it's what someone might do to another person.
I start to run, it turns into sprinting. I know what's gonna happen and I don't want it to happen.
When I get close enough, I see my father with a belt. I can't even think anymore and sprint even faster.
I see my father pull back his hand and Jack crouch preparing for the hit.
Before I know it, I hear the sound of leather hitting skin.
"Run!" I yell. When I look at his face, there is a mixture of fear, confusion and ease.
I look back to see where he is and I see Hunter, my younger brother.
I see my father pull back and prepare to hit him, I run to cover him and feal the mettle of the belt hit my back.
I tell him to run.
This time when I look back, my see both my brothers and multiple of my father surrounding them.
I run towards them and cover them both again and stay there until the hitting stops.
When I wake up, Four looks so confused. I look over to the computer and see that the code is all over, none of it makes sense.
I look over the computer and see that instead of the light flashing green, it's flashing blue, it's not recording.
I get out of the chair and push Four out of the way. When I get to the computer, I scan it from the beginning and start changing the code.
I remove anything about the faces and put that they were blank, I remove anything that would make the code look like there is anything wrong with it and then submit it.
When I look back at Four, he is still in shock. As much as I want to explain to him what happened, I can't. I hope he didn't understand anything that the code said because if he can, I'm screwed. So I leave and before I do, I look back at the camera and see that the light is green again.
Sorry, I know it's short, next chapter will be out shortly.
Anyone starting school, good luck, I know it sucks but hopefully you have friends in your classes/in school. Anyway, if you want someone to rant to about anything, just PM me, tell me what you want me to do and I have like no life so I will answer quickly.
