Hey readers just a heads up I might not post for the next few days. Sorry I'm on vacation. I will try to post as soon as I can! Also (spoiler alert) I will not kill Tobias or Tris. Other people are questionable (no they aren't) anyway enjoy chapter 13!


Tobias

I watched the man take Tris outside the restaurant. I struggled agaisnt my captors to get to her, but no matter how much I fought against them it wasn't enough. "You won't get away this," I shout as Nita turns to leave. For a moment she stops in her tracks. Probably wondering how to respond. After a minute of dead silence she turns to face me. Her eyes burn into mine. "Oh Four I already have," Nita smirks at me with venom in her voice. I growl at her, "if you so much as put a scratch on her I will kill you!"

Nita laughs, "that's sweet Four, but you and I both know that I get what I want." I struggle more trying to reach Nita so I can strangle her, but I can't break free. "Knock him out we don't need him following us," Nita ordered. I lurch forward using all the strength I have left in me and finally break free from their hold. When I am inch from Nita the two men hold me down.I start fighting them. Throwing punches and a kick here and there.

I know my fight is with Nita, but I need to take these two down. Trying to fight is pointless since I know they can take me down. I should run and try to catch up with Tris, but I'm stuck. Everything happens in a blur and I'm not sure what I'm doing. I punched the smaller one in the face and now he is unconscious. The bigger one punches me hard in the face and I hear a cracking sound. Next thing I know all the lights go out and I'm surrounded by darkness.


"Tobias wake up," I hear someone say. I start to open my eyes, but the light is to much to take in at once. Shutting my eyes again I moan as the pain begins to settle. My jaw hurts along with my... well pretty much every other part of my body. "Tobias please wake up," I hear the person say again. It's a female and I'm trying to recognize who they are. "Who-" I try to get the words out, but the pulsing in my head is too painful. "It's me, Christina," and my eyes snap open. "Chris, what are you doing here? Where's Tris," I ask panicked.

Christina says something, but I have no idea what it was. I can't process what's happening around me. Not when I don't know what's going on or if Tris okay. I take a steady breath and father my surroundings. I'm not in the restaurant anymore I'm in the parking lot. Wait no I'm on the side of a road. "Christina what's happening what's going on, where are we"

I asked as she helps me sit up. "Well we are out by the city limits. Once they found out that Tris got away they were going to use you as bait. Thankfully Zeke and Marlene happened to be patrolling the area and saved you. That was when they called me. I drove over with Tris and now Zeke and Marlene are with her," Christina explains.

I nod not because I understand, but that I want her to go on. She doesn't. I feel something wet and warm drip down the side of my face. "You got pretty banged up," Christina says, "I mean God Tobias come on your ether than this." I can't help but laugh. "Yeah well next time I'll be ready, where are the others now," I ask as Christina pulls out a towel.

She hands me some water and says, "they're at Zekes house right now, but are leaving soon, Nita has sent a hunt out for Tris." I curse under my breath as Christina bandages me up. Never would have pegged her for the doctor type. Christina helps me stand up then the undeniable question comes into play.

"Christina where is Nita now," I ask. Not just because I want to hunt her down, but we need to make sure she stays off of Tris' trail. "They went far past the border, but I'm sure they'll be back," Christina says as she helps me into the jeep. My calf is pulsing with pain. For good reason to, I had no idea they shot me. "I have to get you to the hospital," Christina says worriedly, but I shake my head. "No I need to get Tris," I say hoarsely.

"No Tobias no, Tris is fine you are not," Christina says sternly, "I'm taking you to the hospital and I will call Tris so you can talk to her alright." Arguing with her is pointless, but I can't just go to hospital without confirmation for Tris' safety. My silence doesn't help me in any way, but I can't find the words. Christina has a phone, it flips. Originally the people said we would have touch screens. The radiation was too dangerous so now we all have flip phones. I don't have one, but people with phones have a flip.

She dials different numbers. After a few moments Christina says, "Zeke it's Christina... Yes everything's fine, but Tobias is hurt and I'm taking him to the hospitka... No he isn't dying. Who asked that? Was that Tris?... Go figure anyway he wants to talk her." Christina hands me the phone and I put it up to my ear. All the fear inside me is replaced with relief at the sound of her voice. "Tobias are you okay," she asks worried and I smile.

"I'm fine Tris I love you and are you okay," I say with a smile plastered on my face. I hear her sigh, "I love you too and I'm fine, I was so worried and I'm sorry I didn't go back." This time I laugh, "are you kidding, when you didn't come back I was so worried they took you away, until Christina said you got away. I was sip happy you didn't turn back or else they would have gotten you."

Tris breathed a laugh, "okay Tobias please get that wound fixed and I love you more than anything in the world." "I love you Tris please stay safe," I say half happy and half worried. "Always," she says and I'm sure she's smirking at me at Zekes place. "Of course," I reply and she hangs up the phone. I guess we won't play that game of who hangs up first. I laugh inwardly, but my vision begins to blur.
