Tobias- I crept in the control room. Peter was watching a video oblivious to the world around him. It was of two boys wresting with a small girl, I soon recognised the girl as Tris and the two boys as Peter and Eric. It was then Peter's phone went off, bringing him back to reality, I read the text over his shoulder- of course it was from Eric.
"A slow and painful death it is, can't wait to see Four's reaction" my heart jolted as I realised Tris was still alive. Peter chuckled and I set the bullet in place and watched him spin around in the chair, his eyes widening at the gun aimed at his forehead.
"Where is she?"
He smirked but the fear in his eyes was easy to read, he knew I wasn't going to let him off easy.
"Interesting theory-" he began but I didn't let him finish. I lowered the gun and shot him in the penis.
"Cut to the fucking point Peter" he doubled over in agony screaming like a bitch. I didn't find this funny; every second that went by was a second closer to Tris' death.
"YOU BASTARD" tears were streaming down his face but still I didn't react, I just merely moved the gun back to his head.
"Feel lucky it weren't your head Peter" I spat the words at him "just let me know where she is before your luck runs out". I didn't plan on letting him live, once the location was out of his mouth a bullet was going through his forehead. He looked at me pure, pure hatred filled his eyes.
"Eric has her at the Chasm, his waiting till everyone clears out of the pit for Max's announcement in the cafeteria before going to the chasm-" that was all I needed to hear, I pulled the trigger and watched as Peter's head jerked backwards, his arms fell limp to his sides.
I ran toward the pit. I allowed the relief to wash through me. My Tris was still alive and now was my time to save her, to show I am worthy of her. I crept along in the shadows; the pit was empty apart from two figures near the chasm. Tris' body looked frail, it was easy to see one of her legs was broken from the awkward angle it stuck out, her head drooped forwards as Eric placed her over the rail whispering something unintelligible into her ear. Now was the time to act.
"Eric" he turned around startled
"Four" he breathed
"Be brave" I merely uttered the words before shooting him in the chest. Eric fell forwards and I sprinted towards Tris, one seconds delay and she would of dropped to her death. I wrapped my arms around her body, she was still in a dangerous position and the only way to save her was to face my fear of heights. I breathed in. I am dauntless, fears do not exist here. I held Tris' waist tightly, slowly edging her around so she was facing me.
"Tris I want you to listen to me, put your arms around my neck and hold on as tight as you can" her arms rose feebly and fastened loosely around my neck. I bent slowly and eased her good leg in my grip, trying to put no pressure on her broken one. I lifted her and as lightly as I could, I brought her back over the rail. She groaned in agony. Only once she was back over the rail did I start breathing again.
I carried Tris to the infirmary and placed her gently on the bed, doctors saw to her immediately and nurses ushered me out. I sat in a chair in the waiting room, resting my head against the wall. After today three things had been made clear to me.
3. I would never get myself in a state where I was not capable of keeping Tris safe.
2. Tris was able to help me overcome one of my biggest fears, even without her realising.
1. I couldn't live without Tris.
A/N I've come to the conclusion I'm bloody awful at writing long chapters. I'm sorry but I have uploaded like 3 times today if that makes up for it. I know this story line is confusing so if you have questions just ask in your review and I'll answer them in the next authors note.
P.S- never have been much of a 'directioner' but whenever I hear 'they don't know about us' I cant help but think of Tris&Tobias, so cute.
And guys once Monday starts my updates probably wont be as often, Science GCSE which I have no hope for, wish me luck
