Carolyn's POV
I was walking down a hall in Dauntless. That's when I see them, Tori, Zeke, and my dad. My mother is nowhere! I don't have an uncleother that Zeke, and he was taken. So, my mother had a brother. I remember her saying
he died in the uprising. I yell,"Dad! Tori! Uncle Zeke!"
They turn, my dad walks stiffly, his eyes glassy. That's when I run. I run into the control room, I remember my mother said that there was a secret room in here, for emergencies. I type in the code, 27391, and close the door right away. I
pull up a chair and look at the reports of the uprising. I see a report on Tris, Four, and a woman named Ellie. I start flipping through the deaths. I pull out all of the transfers that died, then I get all of the Erudite that died.
There is only one, Eric Coulter.
I scream! I am so frustrated, I can't find anything on Eric! I can't find anything on this Ellie girl. That's when I decide to look up Carolyn,I was named after my mother's sister, she was killed by a factionless. I see three reports,
all from Erudite. I see one that says,
Carolyn Matthews
Mother: Jeannine Matthews
Sister: Ellen Matthews, now Dauntless
Brother: Eric Matthews, now Dauntless
Cause of Death: Multiple bullet wounds
Age: Ten
Was killed by a factionless man, believed Divergent, while collecting information on the Eaton case.
The man was later executed, by Jeanine Matthews, for murder, and his Divergence
I scan over it, who was this Ellen Matthews chick? It doesn't make sense! I type in, Ellen Matthews, the screen flashes and says, File Deleted.
So, whoever she was, she wanted to disappear. I check the other reports, all killed by factionless, all had a brother who transferred to Dauntless. Only one had a sister who transferred to Dauntless. I scan all of the reports, when I
search, Pedrad.
I see a file labeled, Carolyn
Carolyn Pedrad
Mother: Three
Father: Uriah
Brother: Theodore
Believed to be Divergent.
Me? I'm not Divergent! Fuck this! I search Three. Nothing! I go back to the reports on the uprising. I click it and it says,
The Murder of Jeanine Matthews
Ellie, Tris, and Four, had come to Erudite to get a simulation Transmitter deactivated, Ellie's mother had put it inside of her, when Jeanine had told her to kill Tris. The simulation began, she was being controlled, partly by Jeanine, partly by Max and Eric. Caleb Prior didn't have enough time before she shot him, he shot her leg and warned Tris, before Ellie pulled the trigger of her own gun, a bullet lodging itself in Caleb Prior's head. Four was able to deactivate the simulation, ready for a confrontation with Jeanine herself, during this Uriah Pedrad led the uprising at the Dauntless compound. Supposedly, Four put his gun to Jeanine's head before she spun on him, Ellie hiding in the background, and told Tris to drop her gun. She did and was dragged away. She asked Four where her daughter was, Ellen had disappeared on the day of the choosing ceremony. She had picked Dauntless. Ellie pulled out her gun. Jeanine turned and aimed hers at Ellie, she shot and at the same time, Ellie let her bullet go into Jeanine's head. Sadly Jeanine's bullet hit a fatal place, her last words were,"I'm Ellen Matthews."
Report written by: Dauntless leader, Four
No! No, no, no! That can't be it! There has to be more! I put my head onto the desk and see it scratched there, foursets of numbers, 51212514, 5121295, 1312020852319and 3. I write it down and say,"This must be
important!"
After hours of scanning the number I sigh! Then I see a file in the trash that says,"Numbers=letters."
I start with the first one
51212514
Eababead
Elabead
Ellead
Ellen!
Ellen, so the girl must have something to do with it!
5121295
Eababie
Elabie
Ellie, so, what her name was when she transferred?
1312020852319
Matthews! So this has to do with, the girl that killed Jeanine?
3
C?
I'm missing something! It can't be C! It has to be more! I reread the report and see, in a small corner I see -1
-1?
Dauntless leader Four, -1, Three!
3 is simply Three!
My mother is Ellen Matthews, Ellie Matthews, and Three Pedrad! Of course, Caleb Prior gave my mother her leg! He didn't shoot it with a gun! He shot it with electricity, and Jeanine must have tested the sims out on her children! So,
now I know, Eric Coulter was the one who enslaved my parents. Eric is the one who needs to die.
Tris's POV
Ellie was dragging me away, Tobias hadn't returned. I knew Ellie killed him, I knew it was really Eric, I knew she was injured by the tears in her shirt, the blood stains, but none of that stopped me from slapping and scratching her scars, and new
wounds. She never winced, when I had her blood all over my hands, I knew I had to stop, I will go to my death with dignity. She threw me to the guards, and stood by Eric. He said,"The program is wonderful, isn't it? As soon
as I deactivate she'll be in so much pain, pain that you caused her. Then she'll cause you pain."
I scream, I rip myself away from the guards and up to Ellie, I grab her hand and says,"Ellie, snap out of it! Please! I know you, this isn't you!"
The guards drag me away, as Eric says,"Ellie go in front of our guest here."
Her movements stiff she walks towards me. She stands in my face, suddenly she falls to the ground, a moment later she shrieks, I say,"Ellie! Ellie, what happened!"
Eric says,"You happened, Beatrice Prior, you caused her all that pain."
I say,"I'm so sorry Ellie, I was sad, out of my mind, Tobias,"
She says,"I deserved it Tris."
Eric says,"Guards, bring Ellie up here, and get Beatrice on the table."
They drag Ellie up to a metal chair, with leather restraints, Eric straps her in, as he goes down he squeezes her breast. He whispers something to her, and he yells,"Get the serum ready!"
I was strapped to the table when a guard takes out a purple serum, he injects it into my neck, Ellie smiles, her final mission was complete, the heart monitor stops and the world goes black.
