Chapter 13

When everyone is safely on solid ground Tobias fills them in on the whole Four thing.

“So we call you Four?” Peeta asks.

Tobias nods.

“That’s not a name, it’s a number.” Katniss points out.

“Well, Katniss isn’t a name, it’s a plant.” I say defensive on Tobias’s behalf.

She scowls, but stays silent. Uriah runs in, armed with a gun but he lowers it when he sees us.

“Four! Tris!” He says, lifting me up. I grin and hug him.

“I heard noises but it was just you lot.” He smiles “Hey! Christina! Over here! It’s Four and Tris!”

Christina sprints and launches herself at me. “TRIS!” She screams

I topple back and she looks at my face, which must be contorted with pain, as she steps back.

“Oh God! Did I hurt you?” She asks anxiously

“No, it’s my ankle.” I groan and she shakes her head sympathetically.

Uriah and Christina spot Katniss, Gale, Peeta and Delly pretty much simultaneously.

“Who are they?” Uriah asks.

We introduce everyone and Uriah looks at Delly, who’s limping slightly. I barely noticed.

“Hey, are you OK?” He asks her

“My knee, I banged it on the train door.” She mumbles head down. I think she’s she among new people, because she’s blushing. Or maybe it’s just the adrenaline of the past hour. Uriah bends down and takes a look at her bleeding knee.

“That’s not good, is it?” He says and stands up straight. “I’m sure Christina will take you and Tris to First Aid. Meanwhile, Four had better explain all of this.”
