Tris POV:
"Hello?" I say very sleepily and raspy into the phone. It's seven in the morning here in Los Angeles, and in five hours I'm supposed to be giving away my true identity to the world on national television.
"Tris?" asks the familiar voice, I haven't been called that name in five years.
"Yes?" I ask very carefully, and curiously. Who would call me that name still? I think to myself.
"Omg, Omg, Omg, it really is you, your brother wasn't lying, you really are alive." She says really excitedly, screaming into the phone. At this point, I know exactly who it is.
"Christina! I have missed you so much! How did you get my number? How did you know that I was alive?"
"Well, you see, your brother gave it to me. He told all of us the story about how the bureau faked your death, and then put you into a program call Witsec, where they give you a new identity? Anyway, he told me to give you a call and catch you up on everything that's happened while you were away. We are all so excited for you to come back, for your dance competition this Saturday, and for the reunion of course. "
"Wait, how did you know that I was coming back? How did you know that I was coming back for a dance competition? And how did you know that I danced?"
"Like I said, Caleb told us everything, he even mentioned that the president was holding a press conference for you today? He said that apparently, the government thought it was time everyone in Chicago and at the Bureau knew what happened to you."
"Yeah, I'm super nervous. But, let's not talk about me. Tell me what's been happening there." Christina had filled me in on everything. Shauna was now out of her wheelchair and was able to do everything like she was before the accident. She and Zeke are now engaged, it turns out that Marlene wasn't dead either, she was just being held captive at Erudite headquarters until the war ended, Uriah woke up from his coma three weeks after I 'died,' he and Marlene have been together ever since. My brother is engaged to Cara, which I think is amazing considering she was like an older sister to me, and nobody thought that he would ever have a girlfriend, let alone get engaged! Evelyn and Marcus are back together and married, I guess Marcus had gone to therapy and got help for abusing Evelyn and Tobias all those years ago. Tobias, apparently he moved to New York about three years ago, and nobody has really heard from him since. It's almost time for the press conference to begin, and I am currently standing backstage, in my mission suite, with my other two older brothers Riker, and Chase, they had been taken out of Chicago when they were young, which is why I never knew them before five years ago. They lived with our uncle Ryan in L.A. while I stayed and lived in Chicago with my parents and Caleb. All three of us are trained spies working for the government. I asked my brothers to attend this with me because I'm their little sister, and this is a very big deal for me. The president is announcing everything and giving his introductory. Then I hear him say,
"Without further ado, please welcome someone very important to this country and to Chicago, special agent Winter Davenport," here goes nothing, I think to myself.
