Chapter 21!

I'm so sorry for the delay in my usual daily chapter, I won't be able to update daily anymore,

as June will be a month full of tests. I won't turn the blue shoulder though, I will be updating regularly!

Thanks to all of the support, it makes me really happy.

Also thanks for the PMs and one review! I've written all names down and I'm picking names soon :)

Iris

'Damn it, Eric,' I growled as I pried my nails into the flesh of his arm. The Erudite men had blindfolded us so they had to lead us through the hallways. Eric was, unfortunately, leading me and deliberately bumping me into walls as we walked.

'Keep walking, stiff,' he said amused, pushing me into another wall because of my nail action. His tone wasn't happily amused, or mischievously amused. He was angrily amused, because he hated my guts; but it was right back at him.

I knew that Jenna and Tim were walking somewhere close to me, but I'd never felt more distance between us. I felt responsible for the fact that we'd been kidnapped to Erudite, because if Tobias and I hadn't been so naughty, I wouldn't have become pregnant, I could've just practiced my fear landscape, could've taken the test, would've succeeded: no problems... Right?

No, this wasn't my fault. It was Jace's fault. Eric told me all about Jace's betrayal during our car ride, and frankly, I was so angry that I wanted Jace to become factionless. I'd never felt such a rage before: I was frenzy with rage.

He could've asked our help on teaching him how to fight. Instead, he told Eric about us, causing Tim, Jenna and me to be tested and possibly even to be killed in Erudite. Three murders, but hey, at least he would be safe and sound at Dauntless right?

Wrong.

Amar, Zeke, Rick and Tobias would never let him live there after what he'd done, no way, and he should've known that.

I sighed, anger wasn't getting me anywhere. I had to be strong and think of a plan to escape.

During the ride, we'd passed Amity, I was quite sure of that because I picked up on a smell of growing vegetables. Well, not like I'd ever smelt that before, but it reminded me of the produce being brought to Abnegation for our salads, and Amity was the only faction to grow vegetables.

Finally, after walking through a lot of hallways, Eric stopped me and I heard him opening a door. 'Get in there, stiff. This is where you'll be staying,' he spat and threw me inside the room. I tripped over my feet, frantically trying to catch myself so I wouldn't fall onto my stomach. I fell onto my knees and hands, and immediately ripped off my blindfold.

Eric stood in the door opening, smiling emotionless. 'Let me tell you something, Stiff,' he said, leaning against the wall. 'You won't be coming out of Erudite alive, and neither will your friends, your baby nor Tobias once he gets here. So enjoy yourself while it lasts,' he said, and walked away, closing the door behind him.

I clenched my fists and ran up to the door. 'YOU SICK BASTARD!' I screamed and slammed the door. 'JENNA? TIM!' I called, hoping for them be be somewhere close. I didn't have to wait long for a response, as the door was opened again and Tim and Jenna were thrown into the same room.

The men left us, after locking the door and I quickly went to help my friends. 'Guys,' I said while ripping off their blindfolds. 'Who did this to us?' Jenna questioned angrily. 'I nailed my test, just the way Amar and I practiced!' I sighed. 'It was Jace, he told Eric about everything we talked about yesterday evening.

'WHAT?!' She yelled and looked like she wanted to kill Jace. 'I can't believe he did that! Did Dax have anything to do with it?' I looked at Tim who hook his head. 'Eric only named Jace, I think that Dax had no idea...' He said.

Jenna shook her head, 'so far for friends. You know, Zeke, Rick and Tobias had reached my car by the time it almost drove off- Tobias broke the driver's window by kicking it, and they all yelled, so I called back how we were being taken to Erudite. Zeke called back that they would save us. I have no idea how they knew about us being taken away, but they know, so they'll do anything to save us.'

I swallowed thickly, they would probably be freaking out... I thought of Tobias' loving eyes when we could finally come clear about our relationship and our baby, and then his loved one was kidnapped. I shook my head, 'we have to think of a way to get out,' I said.

Suddenly, my heart started beating rapidly and my breath hitched. I remembered I was wearing two guns, both tied to my knees. It wasn't even visible to the human eye, as I was wearing a loose sweatpants as I'd been pretending to be sick. If we were able to think of a plan, I could use those too!

I was about to tell Jenna and Tim when the door opened and Erudites leader Jeanine walked in.

Her blond hair reached her shoulders, and her eyes... She could've been pretty if her eyes showed any emotions, but for now she looked more like a human robot. She was holding a notebook and her posture was straight. 'You almost had me fooled,' she said, walking into the room. A few men followed her- bodyguards. She wasn't stupid, we were now Dauntless raised, we could take her out with a few strikes.

'The both of you handled your test pretty well, I would've walked away and come back for you, Iris. But Eric told me that it was a phony. You weren't sick, and the two of you practiced enough to fool me,' she said, and walked even closer to us.

'But knowing that all three of you are Divergent, testing you makes up for it. And having pregnant Divergent, impregnated by another Divergent, there is no way that this baby won't be one too. I'm truly excited to test you, we're starting to run tests this afternoon,' she said, nodding, and walking away. She'd stared at me the entire time, making me put a hand on my belly.

Threatening me, okay. Threatening my baby and Tobias, I would kill her.

The men grabbed our arms, handcuffing us so we couldn't try anything. My heart skipped a beat, because I didn't exactly know what those tests entailed, but I did know that no one had ever come out alive. I just wished that the three of us would be the first ones.

Tobias

'This is not really happening,' Dax said, as we told him about what had happened. He sunk down into his chair, having a hard time believing the betrayal of his best friend. He'd told me once that Jace and he had been inseparable since kindergarten, so he didn't want to believe us at first, but when we saw Jace being shipped off into an Erudite car, he started screaming at his former best friend, how he could've done that to us.

Jace's face looked guilty, he knew that he was wrong, but he couldn't even face us anymore. At first I just wanted to hit him- punch everything I could for taking away my girlfriend and my two best friends... Not to forget my baby, but the thing was, he was weak, and I couldn't waste my time on him.

I wasn't surprised Erudite came for him though, he'd proven them loyalty, even though he came from Dauntless. We would've kicked him out, maybe Damon would decide on something even worse, but for now, he was gone and so were our loved ones.

'It is, and we have to find a way to get them back,' Zeke said firmly, looking at me. I nodded, we'd talked about this during the walk back. 'Layla will map out the hallways in Erudite, so we can make up a plan,' I added.

'And how are we able to trust her again?' Amar asked, his fists clenched. Layla held up a little bottle. 'Truth serum. You can use it on me, I will tell you all you need to know. Damon can also call Candor's leader Jack if you still don't trust me.'

Rick nodded, 'fine with me, are we going to use it now? Then we know before we tart talking about anything.' Shauna nodded and went to get a chair from Amar's living room. We were sitting in his kitchen, as he was the only one with an apartment. Shauna put the chair down in front of the table, and Layla took a seat.

Amar went to get a serum gun, it was quite like the one he'd used to inject us with the fear landscape serum. He injected her with the serum, causing her to look painfully. We waited a few minutes and saw her eyes become blurry and gray, then started asking her questions.

'What is your real name?' He asked. 'My real name is Layla Alissa Meeker. I used a different surname to fit into Erudite better. I used the name Layla Ann Martin, so people wouldn't know I actually came from Candor,' she answered.

'We did you decide to tell us about Jace's betrayal?' Dax asked. 'Because Eric told me that he would be taking your friends to Erudite to have them tested on their Divergence, and I wanted you to know about it so you could save them,' she explained.

'Why do you want to help us?' Zeke asked. 'Because I want to befriend you for real, I loathe Eric, and I want you all to know that I'm actually not that bad to be around,' she answered.

Suddenly I felt slightly bad for her, being pried away from her parents in Candor only to befriend some douche and spy for Jack, then when she finds people she likes, she thinks they'll never like her because she works with the enemy.

At least I knew that when I became "Tobias" again, I had my friends to come back to, but she wished she had us to come back to too... And she would, because everyone was very thankful for her helping us like this.

'Why did you transfer to Erudite during your final year?' Shauna questioned. 'Because I wasn't fit for Candor, I wasn't honest enough and I could get away with a lie- making me perfect for the transfer. I went to Erudite to befriend Eric so I could learn about Jeanine's plans and tell them to Jack. Same thing Four did, really,' she said.

I nodded at the rest and asked the final question we all had in mind. 'What happens to our friends after they're being tested?' I asked. She swallowed thickly and her eyes cleared up again, meaning the truth serum had lost its power.

She looked at me.

'They die.'
