Broken down.

We quickly arrived at Candor, and I started to twitch.
"Baby, calm down. This will all be over soon." Eric said, holding me. I smiled up at him, and he held me tighter, careful of my back.
"Okay, honey." I said, and he smiled down at me.
"Guys, come on." Uncle Max said, and Toby helped me out. Toby had an emotionless face, as well as Uncle Max and Eric. Toby, though, had his arm over my shoulder. We walked into the leader of Candor, Jack Kang's, office.
"Hello, Max, Eric, Four. What do I owe this pleasure for, and who's this?" Jack Kang said, with a smile. I looked at Toby, and he nodded at me to speak.
"I'm Tris Eaton-Prior. If you remember from yesterday, my name was Beatrice Eaton-Prior." I said, and Jack's eyes popped out.
"Of course, Tris. I'm Jack Kang, just call me Jack. Is everything okay?" Jack asked, and Toby nodded again.
"Not really, Jack. We're here because Four and I are siblings. Four? Can I say your real name?" I asked, and he sighed, then nodded.
"Jack, Four is Tobias Eaton. He is my brother by birth. If you recall, I was adopted by Andrew Prior. The reason we're here is because we were both abused as kids. Actually until we transferred. By Marcus, Andrew, and my adoptive brother, Caleb. I-I was also raped." I said, and Jack gasped.
"Oh my god! It's not that I don't believe you two but do you have any proof?" Jack asked, and I nodded.
"I'll show you. Also, you'll see fresh scabs, they snuck into Dauntless and whipped me with their belts." I said, as I turned around.
Toby did too, and we both nodded at each other. He carefully helped undo my bra, and I pulled it off. We both nodded at each other, and then we both lost our shirts. Toby had a tattoo, but you could still easily see the scars. It just wasn't painfully obvious, like mine.
"Oh my god." Jack whispered, and I felt a rush of anger. I knew that once I turned around, I'd see pity.
"You guys can put your tops back on." Jack said, and Toby helped with my bra again. We turned around, and I had a look that even scared Toby. It was a look that he never saw before.
"You guys do realize that you'd have to go in front of a ton of people?" Jack asked, and I nodded.
"Can we do it today? After this all, I need to take care of my one week of training and then start on leadership training." I said, and Jack nodded. He picked up his phone, and he gave us a look.
"Be glad that though I am Candor, I can lie a bit." Jack said, with a smile.
"Hello Marcus, is Andrew with you as well? I know that even you guys get to have a few days to cope with losing your children." Jack said, and then he nodded, with a glare.
"Thank you for informing me, Marcus. Can both you and Andrew come to Candor, quickly?" Jack asked, then nodded again.
"Thank you, Marcus. Please hurry." Jack said, then he hung up. He then called Erudite, to get Caleb. It was almost the same conversation, except that it was because there was something he needed to talk to Caleb about. He finally hung up, with a smirk.
"Their on their way, I promise. I need you to go to the Merciless Mart and tell them that I sent you." Jack said, and he shooed us away. We ran to the Mart, so that we could be done soon. +
"Jack Kang sent us." I sneered, feeling pissed off. About five minutes later, we heard a ton of people fill in. We then heard yells, belonging to Caleb, Andrew and Marcus. They were shown in front of everyone, in handcuffs.
"Marcus Eaton, Andrew Prior, and Caleb Prior are being tried for abuse of minors, and rape of a minor. Marcus, Andrew, and Caleb's rape is also being considered incest because of who it was done to. We're going to start with our first witnesses, who are going together. Tris Eaton-Prior and Four, please come here." Jack said, and he led us to the seats. We were both injected, and Jack came up.
"Please state your names for everyone." Jack said, giving us a look of pity. We both glared, and he looked sorry.
"My name is Beatrice Grace Eaton-Prior, but in Dauntless I am known as Tris." I said, and then Toby was up.
"My name is Tobias David Eaton, but most know me as Four." Toby said, and Jack then asked the one question we were afraid of, what happened. I started first.
"Before I was adopted, I kept hearing Marcus hit my mother, Evelyn. Tobias and I would be locked in a closet for the night or longer, often without food and without being able to use the bathroom. Evelyn then gave me to the Priors, without knowing that my adoptive mother, Natalie, was being abused too. Andrew forced Natalie to overdose, and he then turned to me to be abused. Evelyn ran to Erudite, where she was accepted. From there, Tobias and I were both abused together. Our abusers were Marcus, Andrew, and even Caleb. After Tobias left, my abuse got worse. Two days ago, before I had my Aptitude test, they raped me." I said, and I heard gasps. Toby told his version of the story, neither of us saying that we were hit with a belt.
"Can you specify how?" Jack asked, and I nodded.
"We were whipped with belts, or we were punched. Our backs are lined with scars. Just yesterday Marcus and Andrew came and hit me again, but they hit Tobias in front of another Dauntless leader, Eric James Coulter." I said with a smirk. Toby agreed, and then we had our final question.
"What is your biggest regret?" Jack asked, and Toby started.
"My biggest regret is not saving my sister before she started being abused. I should've saved her when I came to Dauntless." Toby said, and I rubbed his back. A few people smiled at us, seeing how good our sibling relationship was.
"My biggest regret is not standing up for Tobias and I. I should've done it in the first place, then maybe we would've been fine." I said, looking at the ground. Toby wrapped his arm around my shoulders, and I smiled at him.
"Thank you for your Candor. You may go sit in the crowd or with Eric or Max." Jack said, and we nodded. We walked over, and I sat with a sigh.
"Toby, it's okay that you didn't save me. You were scared." I said, and Toby hugged me.
"It's okay as well, Bea. If you did stand up to them, you would've been hit more." Toby said, and Eric hugged us. Then Uncle Max joined in , and I laughed.
"Family hug." I joked, and they laughed. We were so loud, we somehow forgot that we were in public.
"Wait, then I need to do this." Eric said, and he slipped out of the hug. He sat back, and I gave him a look. Toby and Uncle Max shared a look, then sat up.
"Eric James Coulter, get the fuck back in this hug. You're part of this family." Uncle Max and Toby said, and Eric teared up.
"Really?" He asked, shocked.
"Of course you are, Eric. You've been a brother to me, a son to Uncle Max. Your part of this family, Eric." Toby said, and Eric started to cry. He flew into the hug, and people gasped and laughed. Some gasped because Eric apparently never cried, and people laughed because he quickly found himself a new family.
"T-Thank you g-guys." Eric said, and we all held him tighter.
"Your welcome, brother." Toby said, and Eric let out a sob. Then Uncle Max called Eric his son, then asked if being called nephew was any better. Eric was a mess then, but none of us cared.
"We all love you, Eric." I said, and there were tears from all of us. Then the boys remembered that they were in public, after someone made a rude comment.
"I guess that slut turned them all to mush. They're such cowards." Someone said, and all of the guys let out a growl because I was called a slut. I looked to find who it was, and I gasped when I saw that it was a stupid Candor Dependent. I stormed over to her, and I smirked.
"Bitch, be careful who you call a slut. Though that's not a first. My main issue, bitch, is that you called my boys cowards." I said, and I knew that I looked deadly.
"Bitch, go fuck yourself. And only sluts fuck not only their brothers, but both of their daddy's. That, and if their your boys, then they have to be fucking cowards. I'm shocked your brother actually knows what it's like to not be coddled." She said, and I attacked. No one, and I mean no one insults my family like that. I felt myself getting lifted up, and I heard Eric's voice in my ear.
"Baby, calm down. She's gotta go to the Erudite hospital. Calm down." Eric whispered, and I kept struggling. I then heard Toby in my ear.
"Bea, calm down. It's okay. I promise. She's got a bad chance of surviving this. Thank you for defending me, that's what I really needed." Toby said, and I took a deep breath.
"Thank you, boys. I was about to blow up even more. Is she in that bad of a condition?" I asked, and they turned me around. I felt a sick sense of pride and joy at seeing her in a bloody mess.
"Tris? Are you alright? Seeing as how you just sent a 15 year old to the hospital, are you calm? You've protected your brother and your other two boys from Christina for sure." Jack said, and I took a deep breath.
"I'm okay, Jack. Sorry that I've sent her to the hospital. She just took it too far." I said, and Jack laughed.
"It's okay. Now, can we continue this trial, that you two called?" Jack asked, and I nodded. We all took our seats, and I saw Caleb up first. He was injected, and I could see some fear in him. Good.
"Please state your name." Jack said, rudely.
"Caleb Prior." He said, and he asked normal questions to make sure that the serum was doing its job. Then, it was the time that I felt fear.
"Did you participate in the abuse and rape of either Tris Eaton-Prior, or Four Eaton, or both?" Jack asked, and I saw Caleb fighting the serum. Jack warned it hurt if you refused it, and Caleb tensed, then hung his head.
"Yes, I helped abuse Four and Beatrice, and the rape of Beatrice." Caleb said, and there were gasps as they all realized that it was true as hell. Then he asked his last question, the regret question.
"My biggest regret is not killing Four and Beatrice when I had the chance." Caleb said, with a laugh. I felt a tear fall, and I felt all three boys hug me. Then it was Marcus and Andrew, with the same damn answers, except for the names. Finally, all three were brought up in front. Jack then called for all of us Dauntless to go up, and the boys kept a hold on me.
"Marcus Eaton, Caleb Prior, Andrew Prior, you three are charged with battery of two minors, and the rape of a minor, and the rape is incest. Your punishment is death, by Dauntless leaders." Jack said, and Eric interrupted him.
"Jack, it will also be helped by Tris." Eric said, and I smiled. I then realized something horrible, I might be the cause of my brother, and my two father's deaths. And I felt joy. Oh shit, what's wrong with me? I couldn't dwell on that thought, since Jack cleared out all of the people, and then gave us guns.
"Harrison's staying there for an emergency session when we get back, Tris." Uncle Max said, and I nodded. We all lined up, and it was Marcus first.
"Any last words, bastard?" I sneered, and Marcus grinned.
"See you in hell, bitch. At least we got to fuck you, bitch." Marcus said, and we all aimed our guns. We shot, and I saw smoke coming from my gun.
"Fuck. I killed him! I feel great! Shit, something's wrong with me!" I yelled, and Toby rubbed my back. They then brought out Andrew and I knew I was pissed off at the grin.
"Any last words, asshole?" I asked, and he smirked.
"Fuck you, slut. At least you get to live with the fact that you fucked your bubby and your daddy's." Andrew said, and we all shot again. This time, the smoke was from Uncle Max's gun. Then, it was Caleb.
"Any last words? Actually, let me say something first. You bastard! You were supposed to protect me, like Toby at least tried to! Fuck you!" I yelled, pissed.
"So you want a round two?" Caleb sneered, and I shot. He fell forwards, and I gasped. Uncle Max hurried us into the car, so he could rush us to Dauntless. All of the time though, I was in shock. I just killed two people. In cold blood.
"Eric, get her to Harrison's, quick! That's an order, soldier!" Uncle Max yelled, and Eric picked me up. He ran me, as I stayed still. Harrison quickly opened the door, and I was rushed in.
"Tris? Tris? Are you okay?" Harrison and Eric were asking, and I finally shook my head.
"No, I'm not really. I just killed two people, and I enjoyed it." I said, in a monotone voice.
"Tris, that's alright. You deserve to enjoy it. They raped and abused you, you get to enjoy that their dead." Harrison said, and his words sunk in. I smiled then, and I nodded.
"Thank you, Harrison. That was a big help. Now, let's get to training, I want to be done soon." I said, and everyone laughed. Eric helped me up, and I hugged Harrison bye. We then went to the simulations room, and Eric was talking to Toby who was with Uncle Max.
How was that? Hope you guys liked it. By the way, I don't own Divergent or Kelly Clarkson. Please review. Love you guys.
