Chapter Nine

I know I forgot to ask questions last chapter, but if you could predict what will happen in this chapter down below, before you read, that would be awesome! Thank-you guys for reading this story, I know there are a lot of stories out there, but the fact you chose to read mine means a lot! I know I say that every time, but I don't care!

Please read the author's note at the end of this chapter, it is important, thanks!

Tris P.O.V.

It's been 24 hours since they scanned my brain. There is no difference in my brain, and I believe that is making them frustrated. I think they want my brain to grow weak, or have faults in it. Maybe they are frustrated that they can't find a simulation that I can't withstand. 

I like to believe that Tobias will come for me, but part of me thinks he won't. How would he even be able to find me? Maybe he can't, maybe I will be stuck here for the rest of my life. 

I try not to think that way, I try to have hope. But all hope leaves when the door opens and soldiers walk in to retrieve me. I'm too weak though, I can't stand. They've put me under new simulations that hurt several times more than the old ones. It hurts me physically, of course, but it also hurts me mentally. It's changed the way I think, the way I act.

"Get up." One of the soldiers says. I don't move, I refuse to. They can't make me get up on my own. If they want me to go somewhere that I don't want to go, they can drag me there. I won't make it easy though.

"Get up now, or we will drag you." He says, more forcefully though. I still don't budge. Both of them walk over and grab both of my arms, just above the elbow. I thrash, and move around as much as I can. I am tired of doing as they ask me, I refuse to do it. "Are you going to make this hard on yourself."

"Yes." I spit at him. I can see the moment of shock, the moment they both pause to think about what I said. I take that moment to try to break free, even though it won't do any good. Their grips tighten as I try to do so, and it sends a prick pain through my entire body. I shriek. One of them puts a hand over my mouth, but I bite it. I've only bitten someone a couple of times, but this is different, I bite as hard as I can. 

I can feel blood running down the side of my face, blood from the man's hand. I don't feel any guilt, though I feel like I should. I know my mother would be ashamed, but I don't care anymore. The man's screams pierce my ear, but I only bite harder. 

The second man that's there pulls me away from the man I bit. He's now on the floor, cradling his hand like it's a baby. A baby... 

They took Allaya, they took the only part of Tobias that I have left. She was the only thing that I looked forward to when I woke up, the only thing that kept me going. Now she's gone, because of them. They will pay, they deserve to die, they are filthy creatures with no hearts.

I fling my free arm around and hit the guy, that's hold onto my other arm, with my elbow. He releases my arm and stumbles back. I see the line of red coming down his face, blood. I rush forward and lift my foot up, kicking him in the middle of the stomach. He wasn't expecting it, and was too busy caring for his 'wound' to see it coming. The blow causes him to lean forward, so I walk up to him and knee him in the face. He falls to the floor, and doesn't come back up.

I don't feel any guilt, and that scares me. 

I rush out of the door, into the empty hallway. It seems that nobody heard the fight. The walls are sound-proof. I need to find an exit, a way to get out of here, a way to be free.

I push open a door, and stop in my tracks. The sight of the room is horrifying. 


Okay, I know I left you at a cliff-hanger, but I have a plan for how to write this. The next chapter is going back to Tobias' point of view, so you will have to hang tight for a little while. 

I was wondering if anybody would want me to do a writing contest? People could private message me or comment to tell me about their book, and I would read it. If you guys want me to do the contest, can you tell me what prizes would be good? Of course, they would have to be Wattpad related.

Question time!

1.) What do you think is in the room that Tris entered?

2.) Do you think Tobias and Matthew will find any helpful information in the control room?

3.) Do you think Tris will be found, or find a way to escape? Why?
