Insurgent Character Analysis

Tris and Four need to stop the Erudite and Dauntless leaders from going to war against Abnegation the government faction. When both of them wake up one night they realize they are the only ones awake. Everybody else is in a simulation controlled by the evil faction leaders. To save their old faction they pretend to be in the simulation too. Until they are caught and Four is being put into a simulation especially for divergent people. Tris gets saved by her mom and meets her old friends and family again. With her family and Four’s abusive father, Tris goes back to the dauntless headquarters to stop the war simulation and save Four. In my next book Insurgent, Tris, Four, her brother and the other Abnegation survivors flee to the Amity. There
Why did Four’s mom pretend to be dead? Well first, Marcus her husband didn’t only abuse Four but he also abused her. Marcus as an Abnegation leader, acts very kind and calm on the outside but is very cruel behind closed doors. He made sure Four was to scared to tell anybody. We don’t really get a lot of information about that but I think he abused her in the same way or even worse. Leaving was the right thing to do. But she had to fake her demise so it wouldn’t reflect bad on Marcus or Abnegation because she still cared for him. But Four is very angry with her because ‘’She left me with him.’’ (Four, 12) Why did the Abnegation need to leave the Amity quarters? The Amite had given them specific rules to follow, be nice, no conflicts and work. But because Tris’ dauntless enemy Peter is there with them, there are always some tensions in the air. When Tris finds Peter snooping around in her room and stealing the hard drive with information about her parents’ death/ she gets very angry and the two of them start to fight. So they broke a rule. As a ‘’treatment’’ Tris gets injected with a serum that makes you peaceful but they accidently overdosed her. Four gets angry and they plan to leave in a few days anyways but then the Erudite came and they had to flee anyways. All of this really shows that there is a lot more going on than everybody thinks there
