Tris POV: 

I wake up and have a terrible headache. My body is tied to the chair. 
Marcus, Dennis, and Jeanine walk in. 
"What are you doing with me?" I ask them. 
"This time you are not getting away so easily." Jeanine says.
They turn on the large screen in the room and Tobias's is on it. 
"Tris!" He yells. 
"Tobias!" 
"You better find her soon." Marcus says and stabs my thigh. 
"Ah!" I shout. 
"Tris! No let her go. Please. I'll do anything." 
"No Tobias-- Ah--"
"No Tris I will find you." 
Marcus stabs my other leg and Dennis punches me. 
I feel the blood run down the side of my mouth. 
Marcus, Jeanine, and Dennis laugh menacingly and they end the video call.

Tobias POV: 

The group sit in the couch waiting for me to say something. 
"They have Tris." I say. 
"Who?" Zeke asks. 
"Marcus, Jeanine, and Dennis. We have to find her soon or she will die!" 
"Alright. We will find her. We have to." Uriah says. 
"Okay. Will, Tobias, and I will hack the computer and see where that call came from. Uriah, Lynn, Shauna, and Zeke will get weapons. Peter will get into Jeanine's lab and find some serum." Christina says. 
"Wow, Chris. Way to take authority." Peter says. 
"Are we gonna stand here talking or are we gonna get Tris back!? Everybody! Move! Move! Move!" 
Everyone rushes to where they need to be.

Tris POV: 

Marcus walks in with a smile. 
"Marcus, what do you guys want from me?" I ask him. 
"Your life." He says close to my face. 
He cuts my arm, leaving a nasty gash. 
I yelp.

Tobias POV: 

"I can't crack this code!" Will exclaims. 
I walk over to him to look at the code. I scan the computer. 
The computer shows: 000C64358052M124364T2437587H7375978A173726464E4868798S648.  
"It's not a code. It's an anagram. If we remove all the numbers and switch around the letters, we have, The Chasm." I say. 
"The Chasm. The railing, with the water and jagged rocks at the bottom. That must be where they are keeping Tris!" Christina says. 
"Well we better get there. Where are they with the weapons and the serum!?" I yell. 
As if on cue, Zeke, Peter, Lynn, Shauna, Uriah walk in. 
"Let's go. We found Tris." I say.
