Chapter Thirty Six - The One With The Family Reunion

Get over it, Tris. There are more important things right now
There are two soldiers who follow Tris after she leaves her mom. She kills the first one, but the second isn't so easy. She knows the second one. It's Will. Well... kind of. It is "sleepwalker Will". He is about to shoot at Tris, but Tris places a bullet right into his skull. Tris immediately loses her cool. Real brave of you, Tris! You know what would be even braver? GETTING OUT OF THERE ALIVE! THEY ARE AFTER YOU! STOP WASTING TIME!

After she gets over killing Will, she makes it to the building where her family is and does the knock pattern. I was expecting her father to answer, but it is Caleb who opens the door. He is back in his Abnegation gray. After researching the simulation serum and finding out about the war on Abnegation, he left Erudite and became factionless. Now that takes bravery. He could have easily lived his life, but he threw it all away because he knew what side he needed to help. Good on you, Caleb!

The two men help remove the bullet from Tris' arm. Tris tells them about her mother's death. Her father takes it pretty hard, but doesn't let it be known. Tris also explains how Erudite is now in control of all of the Dauntless and how they need to get them to regain consciousness to the real world.

"Eric called Al's death brave, and he was wrong. My mother's death was brave."

Marcus, Tobias' father, is also in the building. He comes up with a plan to destroy the computers that are controlling the simulations on the sleepwalkers. If the computers can be destroyed, the war will be over.
