The Past (Chapter 2)

Recap~

" Bring her to the room" Marcus commanded one of the government councilors and they execute it without complains. " Natalie... I know this is hard for you but you need to know that this is for the faction's sake. I know it's hard to make this decision but I will give you the choice of inserting the serum on her last day or not" Marcus said with a poker face.

"I'll do it" Natalie replied coldly. " It's what I have to do as a mother."

End of Recap~

Nataile's (Tris's mum) P.O.V

It's been 30 minutes since I said I would insert the death serum into Tris's system and Marcus is preparing the room for me to do so. The death serum would kill anyone, genetically pure and/or damaged. Andrew (Tris's dad) and I had planned the worst-case scenarios for the situation we're in and as we suspected, they are going to kill Tris with the serum. The plan that I have with Andrew is me inserting paralytic serum after I secretly swap it and David will come in to bring Tris to live outside the fence while Andrew will say he disposed Tris already. Now the only thing to do is act it out properly without stuffing up and waiting.

"Natalie, it's time," Marcus said with a pitiful expression spread across his face and I know he is acting. Marcus is an abusive and emotionless man who takes out his anger at his family, but apart from that he is an alright leader for the factions.

I nodded and followed him to the room where I saw Tris secured down on a cold hard metal table with the death serum next to her. I'm too focus to notice anything else but Tris, my beautiful daughter suffering on that table, but out of the corners of my eyes I can tell Marcus is slowly striding out to the room. Once he is totally out of the room, I quickly lock the door, sent a text to both Andrew and David to tell them it's clear and last but not least released Tris from the chains.

" Tris, I need you to listen carefully." I paused for her replied and she nodded.

" Right now one of your dad and my friend is going to bring you out of the fence for you to live and stay alive." I said desperately, hoping she understands.

"Ok, but what about you and dad? And I'm so sorry mum I know I shouldn't have done that, I know I shouldn't have killed that factionless person, I know but I don't know what came over me and I just did it. I'm so sorry, please don't hate me," Tris blurted out all in one breath.

"Honey, Honey, calm down... I know you didn't do it on purpose it wasn't your fault. It was because of the experiment the school did on you and all your other friends. It is an experiment for the new serum the government council had created. You had no control of your own actions so don't blame everything on yourself. And remember, no matter what happen your dad and I will always love you. And Tris, you shall go outside the fence without us, there will be people to help you, people you can trust. Live a new life and meet new people but also be cautious. Promise me Tris that you will try and live a happy life, make efforts and don't regret." I responded steadily, trying not to let my voice show the misery in me.

" I-I-I will try mum, I promise I will try but I don't know if I can... after all this I-I don't know anymore... and mum, I love you guys too." Tris replied in a whisper.

Tears started swelling in my eyes and I know I have to insert the serum or else it's too late. So I nodded and gave her the best smile I can do now and insert her with the serum.

" Be brave Tris, Be brave," I murmured right before she collapsed.

Andrew and David than knocked on the door I had locked before. The moment I open the door is the time I started breaking apart because I know I will never see Tris again after a long period of time or even never. I utter thanks to David and saw his figure gradually fade away with Tris. Andrew embraced me and we both comfort each other as we face the fact that one of our kids is dead and the other is leaving us.

" Be brave," I murmured again, " be brave".
