Chapter 2:
Tobias' PoV:
Tobias had been sitting in the Interrogation room, and just been thinking, when he heard loud noise from the hallway. It was a sound he recognized as quickly as Tris' voice; the sound of fighting. Tobias quickly got up from where he was sitting, and ran out into the hallway. A couple of stair-levels beneath him could he see, that people were fighting. But that was when he recognized them; it was ex-dauntless soldiers. The dauntless people who had chosen to fight with erudite, and betrayed their faction. That could only mean one thing; Eric was there too, and that put both him and Tris in danger, because not every dauntless would recognize them, but Eric certainly would. Tobias got down, and looked at the fallen people downstairs. He quickly noticed that something was off; none of them was bleeding. It seemed like they had all just fallen asleep.
Tobias got up, and started running up the stairs. He knew that a group of Dauntless had gone up to the top, to enjoy the view, and he needed to warn them. He also needed to find Tris. Tris. Oh no, what if they had already captured her? He knew that Eric would not hesitate with shooting her. An ugly, terrifying picture appeared in Tobias mind; Eric, pulling the trigger, and Tris falling over, dead. He quickly pushed the thought out of his head. She was okay. She had to be.
But he still needed to find her. And he couldn't do it without the help of the other dauntless.
When he reached the floor that he knew they were on, he slowed down to catch his breath. He could hear chatter from one of the rooms, and went in. everyone turned their heads to look at him when he came in. Tori, who stood in the front, went up to him. "Four, what's wrong?" he looked at her with a gloomy look in his eyes. "Eric and the other dauntless are here. They are shooting everyone - candor as well as dauntless - with these weird bullets, which make you fall asleep. We have to rescue the ones they have captured." A couple of people let out a gasp, but everyone nodded in agreement. He looked over the crowd, and ended at Tori. "Then we have to get guns. Let's do this." She said, and they all walked out of the room. They went down the stairs as silently as they could, and Tobias was in the front. No one talked, but as they reached the first floor with sleeping people, a few let out a gasp. The dauntless all picked up a gun, and just as they were about to leave, Christina went up to him, and whispered "let me guide the way. I have an idea of where they may have taken the prisoners. Oh, and by the way Four? She is probably okay." She last she said even lower than the first, but he got every word. He nodded. Tobias hoped that too. He wouldn't know what to do, if she wasn't okay. With Christina in the front, they started moving towards wherever she was taking them.
A couple of minutes later, after they had maneuvered through hallways, and hidden in random rooms as ex-dauntless passed by, they reached a room, where Christina made them stop. She looked at Tobias. "if I am right, they have taken them here. It is the best room in the building to hold captives, so it would be the obvious place to keep them." Tobias nodded. "ill check it quickly, and then tell you if they're there." The rest of the crowd nodded. Tobias went around the corner, and quickly popped his head in and out of the room. It was full of both candor and dauntless people, but there was one thing that was off: they were all awake. That was when he realized; it was a test to find all the divergents. An ice cold shiver ran down his spine; Tris. She might be in there. He hurried back to the others, to tell them the news. "there are a lot of people in there, but it is a sim. The bullets that they shoot them with makes people go to sleep. If they aren't divergent. This is a trick by erudite to gather all the divergents, and get rid of them." Tobias could see Christina pale. "on my signal, we go in. got it?" he said to everyone, and they replied with a "got it". Tobias held of 3 fingers, and when he had folded the last one, they ran into the room, and surrounded the group that was already there. The first thing he saw was Eric, pressing a gun against the back of Tris head.
