It’s still strange not to see you in blue, I say.It’s time to let all that go, I think, she answers. Even if I could go back, I wouldn’t want to, at this point.You don’t miss the factions?I do, actually. She glances at me. Enough time has passed between Will’s death and now that I no longer see him when I look at her, I just see Cara. I have known her far longer than I knew him. She has just a touch of his good-naturedness, enough to make me feel like I can tease her without offending her. I thrived in Erudite. So many people devoted to discovery and innovation--it was lovely. But now that I know how large the world is…well. I suppose I have grown too large for my faction, as a consequence. She frowns. I’m sorry, was that arrogant?Who cares?Some people do. It’s nice to know you aren’t one of them.I notice, because I can’t help it, that some of the people we pass on the way to the meeting give me nasty looks, or a wide berth. I have been hated and avoided before, as the son of Evelyn Johnson, factionless tyrant, but it bothers me more now. Now I know that I have done something to make myself worthy of that hatred; I have betrayed them all.Cara says, Ignore them. They don’t know what it is to make a difficult decision.You wouldn’t have done it, I bet.That is only because I have been taught to be cautious when I don’t know all the information, and you have been taught that risks can produce great rewards.

Matthew tugs it open and takes a bite out of the apple he’s holding. We follow him into the room where I found out I was not Divergent.Tris is there, standing beside Christina, who looks at me like I am something rotten that needs to be discarded. And in the corner by the door is Caleb, his face stained with bruises. I am about to ask what happened to him when I realize that Tris’s knuckles are also discolored, and that she very intentionally isn’t looking at him.Or at me.I think that’s everyone, Matthew says. Okay…so…um. Tris, I suck at this.You do, actually, she says with a grin. I feel a flare of jealousy. She clears her throat. So, we know that these people are responsible for the attack on Abnegation, and that they can’t be trusted to safeguard our city any longer. We know that we want to do something about it, and that the previous attempt to do something was… Her eyes drift to mine, and her stare carves me into a smaller man. Ill-advised, she finishes. We can do better. ― Veronica Roth, Allegiant
