TRIS POV
Days past. We tried to interact with Courtney, but she was closed off. But, that was to be expected. Shes been thrown into a strange place, with strange people.
It took a while for the faction leaders to decide anything, but then they came to an agreement. They were going to use the truth syrim of her. To find out about her, about her situation, to see if she was a threat.
That afternooon, we had brought her to Candor hearquarters, to be questioned. We travelled up an elevator, and walked through countless corridors untill we got to the interrigation rom. We led her in and told her to lie on the metal table, but as soon as she saw it she tensed.
"What are you going to do to me?" she whispered, fear in her voice.
"Don't worry. Nothing bad. You will be injeceted with a syrum that will influence you to tell the truth." explained a Candor man. "My name is John. I am the Candor leader."
"Hello, I am Jeanine Matthews, and I am the leader of Erudite. The man in black is Max, the leader of Dauntless," a woman wearing blue explained. She was blonde and wore glasses.
Christina, Four moved to the side of the room. I hovered close to Courtney, just incase something happened. John moved closer to her, and injected her in the side of the neck. "It will take affect in sixty seconds."
COURTNEY POV
"What's your full name?"
I felt a heavy weight putting presure on my head, forcing the answer out. "Courtney Dawn Smith"
"How old are you?" the voice said. I couldn't figure out where the voice was coming from, because of the cloudy sensation in my head.
"16," the answer just slipped out.
"What year were you born?"
"1998" I said. I wanted to resist answering but i couldn't. There was a collective gasp.
"Do you remember how you got here? Start from the begining"
Memories rushed to the surface, making me close my eyes. Scared. "I snuck out of the house to meet my boyfriend. It was the only way I could see him. I went to our usual meeting place, and then a van drove up beside me. I started to panic because I thought they found me."
"Who is they?"
I was in such a frienzie at the attack of memories, I didn't hear the question. "But it wasn't them. It was someone else. They grabed me and put something over my head so I couldn't see. I tried to fight them off but I couldn't. They hit me over the head with something, then I passed out. The next time i woke up, I was in a warehouse of some sort, chained to a wall. They would come in wearing masks, then beat me.. They would sometimes just do it with their hands, but most of the time, they enjoyed using knives. Then they put me in a cold box. It was freezing. Then, the next thing I know, it that its dark, and I am running, and you all were chasing me."
The room was filled with silence. They only asked me one more question. "What is your biggest regret?"
I wanted to stop from aswering, but I couldn't. "That I didn't die when i had the chance."
