one of the readers gave me a great idea that will go along with the story. Thanks so much!
Tris POV
Ah, shit. Tobias is here to kill Caleb and I'm not supposed to be here.
"Uh, awkward." Peter sang-song.
"You're not supposed to be here." Tobias's eyes narrowed.
"Well, fuck, Tobias! I couldn't just let you kill him."
"You're not going to kill me?" Caleb was like a dog.
"Well, of course not. You're my brother."
"Even after I poisoned you?"
"You what?" Tobias glared at Caleb.
Caleb smiled and two guards came out of no where. Are they Dauntless? The guards started beating up Tobias and I screamed. Tears were streaming down my face as he laid there unconscious as they beat him up. I tried to not cough up some blood because that's what it felt like.
"Tobias!" I screamed and sobbed.
Uriah and Zeke held me back. I screamed at Caleb. He just stood there watching like it was all a show.
"Caleb, let's fight. Me and you. No guards or help. Whoever dies, dies."
"Tris!" Christina gasped.
"Deal."
Caleb took me onto a roof and punched me. I fought back. Punch, kick, kick, punch. It was going well. Everyone was sitting on the side lines waiting for one of us to slip up. There was a seventy-five percent chance that I was going to slip up. It had started to rain and I'm already so sick. Tobias had regained consciousness and was watching me struggle. Caleb punched me in the stomach and I had a coughing fit. My friends, and even Peter, tried to run and help me, but more guards blocked their way. The roof started to over flow with water and Caleb was thrown off the side.
"Caleb!" I screamed and ran to help him.
He looked really scared and unready to die. "But you said whoever dies,dies."
"You're my brother Caleb! I could never let you die." I tried to pull him up, but the water was sliding me forward.
I was hanging off the side, still holding on to Caleb, when my friends broke through the guard barrier. They caught my leg before Caleb and I fell totally off.
"I got you, Tris. I got you." Tobias had grabbed my waist and started pulling me up.
When Caleb and I were safely back on the roof, I ran into Tobias's arms.
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry." I repeated and sobbed.
For the first time, Tobias coddled me. He held me close and told me that everything was going to be fine. I hadn't expected him to coddle me.
"B-beatrice, I didn't know that I meant so much to you."
"You're my brother. How many times do I have to explain that?" I sniffled.
"I'm sorry that you're going to die."
"I'm going to die?"
"Yeah, the poison that I put in the blood was supposed to kill all of the Divergents."
"Well, shit, Caleb. I saved your life numerous times and this is how I'm repaid?"
He glared at me and tried to bitch slap me, but Tobias caught his hand and flipped him over his shoulder. Zeke and Uriah handcuffed him and we stared to go back to the Dauntless compound. Everyone else jumped into a train car in front of us and Tobias helped me into a train car behind them.
"You shouldn't have come." Tobias said after we got comfortable on one of the sides of the train car.
"Really, Four?"
"Really, Beatrice." He tried to keep a straight face.
"Touche." I laughed and we kissed.
I'm so glad that I stopped throwing up. My mouth probably doesn't taste that bad anymore.
"Tris." Tobias pulled away.
"What?" I asked.
"I love you."
"I love you too, but it's not over with Caleb."
"Not over." he repeated.
"He would never just freely kill me. Jeanine did something to him. I know she did."
"She couldn't have done anything. She didn't even know she was going to die."
"How do we know?"
"We- oh, true."
"We're going to have to question him when we get back."
"Tris, I want you to be there."
"What? You honestly don't want me there." My eyes widened.
"I need you with me."
I nod and brace myself for the jump. Tobias and I jump out of the moving car and hit the ground hard. He helps me up and I brush myself off. We go back into the compound and head to the interrogation room. Caleb is already tied to a chair waiting for us.
"Let's do this." I whisper to Tobias and he nods.
I walk in, cross my arms over my chest, and narrow my eyes at him. There is something different about his eyes. Instead of his natural green eyes, they're a bit silver. That's quite odd. His skin has a greenish tint to it too. What the hell is going on? His eyes find mine and narrow. There is something totally wrong here.
"Caleb, we have some questions for you." I say.
"Not from you I hope." He spat at me.
I smile sweetly at him. "Of course from me."
"Then hurry up. I'm going to throw up with you in my presence."
I wanted to smack him, but I knew something was wrong. Tobias looked at me and must have seen some evil glint in my eyes because he chuckled.
