And we're back, sorry about it taking bare long it's that awkward chapter where there's not much happening. Sorry.
Chapter 13
Apparently while me and Uriah were trying to play hero. The actual adults, and UN insane people were making a civilized plan to keep everyone safe with out people dying. An Erudite didn't really listen to Erics commands very well and instead of heading towards the second floor she went straight to the top to warn the loyal dauntless that wouldn't do something stupid about what was going on. From there they left the building and recongrigate in the lobby to come up with a plan of how to get rid of the dauntless traitors. The traitors weren't expecting them to be there, so apparently according to Tobias after that it was cake. And we should all thank Cara, Wills older sister for not being killed. Which I dearly noted. Then I obviously had to deal with Tobias ranting about how I'm too reckless and need to stop making stupid decisions and instead keep myself safe. Which to be honest I now have memorized. Before I could go back to the dorm room to have a nap. I feel Tobias's arms wrap around me during the night, letting me know he's still there and we're still safe.
The next day I spend my time digging flat disks from peoples skin. Which isn't exactly my idea of fun, but it definitely kept the day moving. Until the time comes when there are non left and I try to help a group of Candor and dauntless clean up what was left of the lobby. Only I don't notice them. I notice the two dauntless traitors outside the doors. A woman with graying streaks through her hair and a boy with skin the same tan skin as Uriah. Zeke and Tori. Toris leg lies limp beside her, staining everything it touches a rich crimson. The dauntless soldiers move forward as one, Their guns all aiming at them.
"Idiots" I say. "How many times do I have to tell you a barrel to the face is not a freaking greeting." But no one listens to me. Obviously.
"Are you armed." One man yells.
Zeke puts a hand up the other keeping Tori upright. "Please. She needs medical attention."
"Why would we give a dauntless traitor medical attention?" The blonde soldier asks.
I roll my eyes at him as I take my gun from my waist band. And with one fatal swoop swing it against his head, rendering him unconscious.
The remaining dauntless soldiers deciding I'm the bigger threat than an injured woman. Turn their guns to me.
"If you're going to act as cruel as dauntless traitors I'm going to treat you guys like one." I state through gritted teeth. "Now either I try to fight you all or you can let these loyal dauntless through."
They give each other troubled glances until eventually lowering their weapons.
"Where should we take them?" One asks.
"Helena." Zeke pipes up. "Dauntless nurse."
The men nod and sweep Tori up, heading to the elevator.
"Nice job stiff." Zeke winks causing me to huff at him.
"Nice to see you too Zeke." I say. "Care to explain this mess."
"The traitor Dauntless found out we were collecting information from them." He says. "Got a bit messy."
"That's a nice story." A soldier yawns. "Care to say that under truth serum?"
"Alright." He says dramatically folding his wrists in the air. "Lock me away, and throw away the key. " He grins. "But I want Tris as my lawyer."
I feel myself smile with him. "As long as I can use my usual methods." I joke.
Zeke looks to the floor where the dauntless soldier still lies there, unconscious. "Absolutely."
He looks behind my shoulder and is running almost instantly, Uriah meets him half way.
"Heard you were a dirty traitor." Uriah smiles.
"Yeah whatever." Zeke launches at him throwing the two of them into an all mighty bear hug.
…
"I can't believe you didn't tell us. " Lynn says.
We sit in the gathering place after Zekes almighty trial which was hysterical. To celebrate his freedom and his lack of being a filthy being of treachery.
"I feel like you guys don't understand the term spy." Zeke moans. "It's usually done in secret."
"Hey!" Will says. "Take it as a complement, people missed you here." He has his arm latched onto Christina, looking so happy.
"Yeah." Shrugged Zeke. "But helping Erudite defectors out was kinda more important, no offense guys."
"How'd you get the job anyway?" Lynn asks. "You're not exactly special."
"Special needs maybe." Uriah laughs, making Zeke wack him on the back of his head.
"I was kinda smack dab in the middle of a bunch of dauntless traitors. So you know I rolled with it. No clue about Tori."
I chose not to mention my thoughts on that, it was Toris story to tell. Not mine.
"Anyway, did you guys hear the news?" Chris asks.
"News?" Cara asks, apparently the new addition to our little gang.
"The head stiff is here. You know Marcus Eaton." Lynn states looking at her nails. The group give each other awkward glances, avoiding my eyes. Except for Zeke who after being away from mine and Tobias's little revelation says. "Oh that's cool so Tris can spend time with another stiff for a change, it should be good for her. You know get rid of a few violent tendencies"
The whole groups eyes widen in horror and I watch as Uriah goes to elbow Zeke. I can't deal with this awkward atmosphere. So before he can I let out a loud laugh.
"Excuse me, pretty sure my violent tendencies helped you out earlier. Thank you very much."
"Pretty sure your violent tendencies almost got me killed." Uriah snorts.
The group burst out in laughs as Tobias enters the room, He drapes an arm around me as he sits down giving me a quick peck.
Zekes eyes widen at the action. "Wait. Lets step back for a second shall we." He says. "Is Four actually getting some?"
I feel my grin broaden as I give him a wink and Tobias's cheeks begin to blush.
"Well I'll be damned." Zeke mutters, in awe. "And all this time I thought Tris and Uriah were getting it on." He snorts, causing Uriah to blush and Tobias to grip me even harder.
"Anyway..." Tobias says. "Kang is going to meet with a representative of Jeanine at seven in the morning."
The group as one smiles and there's only one sentence we are all thinking. "Time to go snooping."
