Chapter Thirty Nine - The One Where It Ends

"The shot doesn't come."

Tobias somehow breaks out of the simulation. Never underestimate the power of the divergent, folks! The two lovebirds share an embrace and Tobias starts sobbing because he feels bad about everything that has happened. He claims that he was able to shake the simulation because he could hear Tris' voice. How dreamy? They kiss and stuff for a minute.

They notice a monitor and see that Peter, Caleb, and Marcus are surrounded by soldiers. Tris begs Tobias to end the simulation. He does so just in time and the three are saved.

The Dauntless all snap out of the simulation and realize the destruction that they have caused. Everyone is placing blame on each other. This is getting out of control.

Tobias and Tris grab the hard drive with the simulation on it. They meet up with Peter, Caleb, and Marcus. When Marcus and Tobias end up in the same space, it gets awkward fast. Tris threatens Tobias with the gun, but no shots are fired. I guess you'll have to read book 2 to see what happens between father and son.

The group rides the train and are headed to the Amity HQ. I feel like Amity has been the forgotten faction in all of this. Amity was covered very little in this book. Possibly book 2 will be focused more on this faction.

One thing is for sure: life as Tris knows it is completely different now.

"I have no home, no path, and no certainty. I am no longer Tris, the selfless, or Tris, the brave. I suppose that now, I must become more than either."
