Tris's POV
I rush to the infirmary after taking Mia to see Max. God I hate that girl. Marlene greats me with a sad smile. She takes me to the room where Tobias was being kept while she helped me tend to the knife cut in my arm. She then let me see Tobias who was sleeping due to blood loss. I start to cry into her shoulder.
"Why did it have to happen to him?" I sobbed. I was a wreck. Tobias didn't deserve this.
"Calm down Tris. He should wake up within the next twenty four hours." She said trying to cheer me up. I turn around as I hear movement coming from the hospital bed.
"Where am I?" He asked with a scratchy voice. His cut was stitched up and covered in bandaging. I rush over to him.
"Tobias, t-thank god!" I said sobbing happy tears this time. "Your in the infirmary. Mia tried to kill you." He looks up with me, a sad look in his eye.
"Shame. She was a promising initiate." He said
"Max wants us to testify against her this week." I tell him. "I told him it was dependent on whether or not you were in a better condition." He nods.

Tobias's POV
"Max wants us to testify against her this week." Tris tells me. "I told him it was dependent on whether or not you were in a better condition." I nod.
"I'll do it." I tell her. "Mean time, I need outa here." I tell Marlene.
"Yes, yes." She said handing me the paper work.

-Three days later-
Tris's POV
Tobias and I had Zeke and Uriah train the initiates for the past few days so we could heal and prepare for the testimony today. Currently we lie on the couch sharing a piece of cake.
"Are you ready?" Tobias asked.
"I-I don't know." I say shaking my head. "I think so, but it will be hard."
He checks his watch. "Shit!" I look down at his watch too. "We have to go. The trial is in thirty minutes." I scramble up from the couch. I slip on my shoes and head out the door with Tobias right behind me. We make it barely ten minutes before the trial started. I walk down as my name is called. Max hands me the needle with truth serum in it. I inject it in the proper spot.
"What is your name?" He questions me.
"Tris." I tell him, "Beatrice Prior. Daughter of Andrew and Natalie Prior, sister of Caleb Prior." I say loud and proud.
"Okay Beatrice, what is your side of the story?" Max asked.
"Well, Tobias was cleaning up after training the Initiates, whilst I went to get us some lunch. I suppose Mia came in after I left, because when I came back, what I saw was infuriating." I tell him.
"What did you see?" Max asked.
"Well, I had dropped the food because I saw Mia digging a knife into Tobias's neck." I say, holding back tears. "I ripped Mia off and knocked her uncontious. She managed to lodge the knife in my arm, but I called Zeke and Uriah to help me bring Tobias to the infirmary, where he then woke up three hours later. I had brought Mia to see you, and before we entered, she knew about my past, who I am, and wanted to kill me for suspecting I was Divergent, as well as Tobias." I gulp.
"Thank you Tris. You may go back to your seat." He tells me, then calls Tobias up.
Tobias reveals how Mia did the same thing about distracting him with his past. Then attempting murder. Tears sting my eyes. I leave the room with Tobias for the rest of e trial, unable to bear it all.
Sorry for e short chapter! It's like almost one in the morning, so I finished it up quickly! Again, apologies for the length and cliffhanger!
