《If It Was Caleb--Divergent alternative ending》Tris' P.O.V.
Advertisement
I jump down the hole. Tobias stops talking and walks over to me. He looks at me strangely. I pick up my head and he sees me. His face turns white and I wave slightly. "Tr..Tris?" He asks. I nod and roll towards him. "But you're dead." He stutters. I shake my head. I roll off and give him a hug. All the initiates are watching us. Tears fall off his cheeks and cover my shirt. "I love you Tobias." I whisper in his ear. He pulls his head back and kisses me. Our eyes meet. "It's me." I say and he smiles. We turn around and see the iniates. "What's going on?" He asks. I don't know his name. "My wife has been missing for almost a year and her fake body was found in the chasm." He looks at me and we laugh. "Follow me." I yell and they listen.
We show them around the pit. And then the chasm. "This is the chasm. It shows us that there's a fine line between bravery and idiocy." I see and I see Zeke and Uriah with the Dauntless borns. Their eyes widen and they look at each other. I run up to them. "Tris?" I nod. "In the flesh." I say and they both give me a hug. "I'll explain at lunch. Don't tell Chris" I say and they nod. I run back. "Wait" says Tobias. He pulls out a necklace with my ring on it. "You found it." I say and put it on. We continue the tour until lunch. Tobias walks in with Zeke and Uriah. They sit down for a while and I come running in. Christina jumps up and down. She runs up to me. "I thought you were gone" she says and I shake my head. The whole dining hall looks at us. They see me and cheer. I sit down at the table. "Explanation. Now" Uriah says. "Eric took me hostage and hid me in a weird secret room. He pretty much abused and raped me for a year. He used a fake body so nobody would look for me. I stabbed him with a sheet of metal that I used as a knife." I say and take a deep breath. Tobias'hand turns to a fist. "I'll take you there after dinner." I say. None of them say a word. "Hello?" I say and wave my hand in front of each of their faces. "Are you guys okay?" I ask. "Where's Eric?" Asks Uriah. "I locked him,where he locked me." I say. "Guys Chill" I say and all their fists release except Tobias'. "Why are you so mad?" I ask. "Our friend has been kidnapped,raped,and had her death faked. Why do you think?" Christina says and I smile. I rest my hand over Tobias' fist and it releases. "Should probably get going." I say and stand up. Tobias follows me. "Transfers follow us" he yells and they follow. We walk them to the top of the roof. "Today,we will learn how to shoot a gun." I say. "Would you like to demonstrate Four?" I ask. It feels so weird to call him Four. I can tell that all of them are looking at my scars. He nods. The bullet hits the center of the target. "Begin" I say and they all start to shoot. By the end, everyone has hit the target at least twice.

Now it's time for dinner. We walk to the dining hall. I grab a salad and sit down. The gang sits too. All of the sudden someone is talking over the loudspeaker. "I'm pleased to announce that Tris Eaton has been found." Everyone looks at me. As if on command,a huge cake is brought out. Tobias gasps and looks at me. Someone cuts the cake and dishes it out. Tobias gets 3 pieces and I get one piece. We all smile and laugh the whole time.

Four hundred years after a portion of humanity was ripped from Earth and thrust into a world of magic, monsters, and swords, whatever cruel gods rule the Rings are stirring once more, and with them comes the chaos of progress.

The Oresteia (Modernized)
All three of the great Greek Tragedians have written plays about the bloody chain of murder and revenge within the royal family of Argos. Yet theirs is in fact not a story of tragedy, but rather one of redemption. As they move from darkness to light, from rage to self-governance, from primitive ritual to civilized institution, their spirit of struggle and regeneration becomes an everlasting song of celebration to be heard throughout the ages. Forming a discourse set against the emergence of Athenian democracy out of a period of chaos and destruction, the Orestian plays are compelling stories of the tensions between our obligations to our families and the laws that bind us together as a society. In the beginning, we witness how a king’s decision to sacrifice his daughter and turn the tide of war inflicts lasting damage on his family, culminating in a terrible act of retribution. In the aftermath of regicide, we behold how a son must set out to avenge his father’s death by committing a most egregious sin. In the end, the sinner is tormented by supernatural powers that can never be appeased, but ultimately finds redemption and ends the curse on his house once and for all. Woven through all of this is the story of a friendship so close that it elevates itself to brotherhood - Where the blood of the covenant is shown to be indeed thicker than the water of the womb. In this very brief twelve-chapter modern rendition of the Orestian plays, I have chosen to place my focus mainly on the lives of the characters Orestes and his best friend Pylades. The chapters, each around 2000-2500 words, are split up evenly between them in first-person narrative. I hope that you will come to enjoy reading this heartwarming story, but more importantly, that you see how the conflicts portrayed in the story, whether human or institutional, are still much very relevant to our societies today. Note on Sources: The details of this story is very loosely based on The Oresteia by Aeschylus. And I mean very loosely. Other sources that I referenced for detail and inspiration are Mythology by Edith Hamilton, Electra by Sophocles, and Iphigenia in Tauris by Euripides. You may also find that I have quoted some of these works, and others (such as Shelley's Ozymondaeus), without citations (average of 1-2 such quotes per chapter). I did this because I do not have the ability to describe certain scenes nearly as well as some of those writers. If you read a particularly beautiful piece of prose here, chances are it's probably stolen lol. Also, I wrote this during the summer between my high school senior year and my college freshmen year. It was the summer of 2020, and being quarantined apparently gets my creative side out lol.
