Author's Note: Hey guys, Rachel here! Now this chapter is super, super, super long! I could have made two chapters from this but them the story wouldn't flow as well, so I decided to make a giant chapter, with about 2,000 words (:WOW:) So anyways here it is!

A flash of light appears in front of our eyes. The woman from the projection is on the screen again, but this time – she is wearing all black clothing, and standing in front of the pit. Edith Prior, my possible relative, was a Dauntless.

I see Edith, with her back turned away from the camera – she is holding a pistol in her hand, armed and ready.

"Is the camera on Liz?" "Yeah Edith, get going! We don't have much time until they find us." Edith turns around to face the camera.

"I am Edith Prior, an ex-Dauntless Leader. This video determines the fate of humanity." She sighs,

"The Erudite and Dauntless plan to kill all of the Divergent – they wish to keep things the same, to keep the gates closed."

I can hear several shots in the background, and Edith readies her gun. "When the Divergent population is abundant, do not leave the gates, I repeat DO NOT leave the gates. It will lead to the death of you all."

"I am sharing this information, because the Erudite have thought ahead – Typical." She snickers, "They have placed traps, bombs, hired mercenaries, and made the path difficult to locate Washington D.C." Washington D.C? What?!

"If the entire population leaves the gates, they will die, I have no doubt. Only the Divergent will survive. So here is my advice to you." She fires her pistol; I hear a loud scream, and a thump. I hear Liz over the camera, "Hurry Edith, there are more coming."

"The divergent need to stay and run the head of the government, but all of the factions need to have representation. It is the only way to maintain peace." She fires again, thump.

"At the same time, some of the Divergent need to make their way to Washington D.C, the people there will assist you in evacuating Chicago. You are the cure; they will do anything to help you."

She ducks behind a rock and reloads her gun, I can hear the footsteps of people approaching – she looks into camera one last time. "You will find all of the information you need to know in apartment 23B."

"This information is important; it is something I am willing to die for. Liz are you sure this video will be in safe hands?!" "Yes, it's impossible for someone to access this video just by finding the camera."

Edith turns to the camera, her look is not fearful, but it is sad. "Jacob, I love you. I might be gone, but we will be reunited again. I promise." Bang! Edith cries out in pain, and clutches her right arm; blood is seeping out of it. Who is Jacob? Is he related to me too?

I hear footsteps approach Edith and Liz, Bang! The camera drops onto the ground, and blood sprays onto the lenses, the blood of Liz. "NO!" I hear Edith scream.

I look away, I can't watch this anymore.

The camera is still running. Please stop running. Please stop. Please. "You traitor," a deep voice says. "No Kyle, I'm not a traitor, I'm trying to save humanity." Kyle laughs, "Looks like you've failed then Edith."

I can see a small smile creep across Edith's face.

I hear a bullet click into the chamber of a gun, "Get on your knees." Edith stoops down onto the rock surface, now on her knees. Kyle presses the gun to her head. "Be brave, Edith."

The screen goes black,

And all we hear is a bang.

-Page Break-

My hands are shaking.

When we walk out of the room, I have to lean on to Tobias for support.

"Follow us," Tori's voice is unsteady, but she is able to keep her fear from showing. Years of practice I suppose.

Harrison and Tori take a right around a corner, and walk into a room with a large metal door. When I walk into the room, I see Evelyn and Edward sitting around a large table.

"Come sit," Evelyn glares at me when I walk into the room. "What is she doing here Tori?" Tori sighs, "Tris one of the new Dauntless Leaders, along with Zeke here." Tori motion's toward Zeke and Evelyn slowly nods.

"Alright Tori, so why was this meeting called, so late at night?" Evelyn frowns - but Edward just sits attentive, when I look over at him, he smiles at me.

"New information was discovered about the 'Cure' Evelyn. Opening the gates will end up killing us all, the Erudite have placed traps, and hired people to kill us if we travel outside the city."

Evelyn sneers, "So I suppose you want all of the Factionless, the ones who don't matter; to take the dangerous journey? No wonder you didn't have an aptitude for Abnegation Tori." She starts laughing.

Tori scowl's at Evelyn, "You didn't let me finish." Evelyn stops laughing and sits straight up in her chair. "I want to come to a compromise on what we do."

Evelyn begins to nod slowly, "Alright, what do you suppose we do Tori?"

"We should go back to the way things were, our city cannot descend into chaos because of this war." Evelyn laughs again,

"Well Tori, let me tell you something. Everyone deserves representation in the government. I'm not going to take any more of this crap from Faction leaders like you." Tori's face gets very red, I can tell she is about to explode.

Tori gets up so fast, he chair falls backward. She walks over to Evelyn and gets right in her face,

"That monster Jeannine." She says so quietly. "She killed my brother; she hunted me and all of the divergent." Her voice begins to get louder, "THAT monster, caused hundreds of Dauntless and Abnegation to die." Tori's voice get quieter, "That monster is dead, and I want to make sure we do all we can to prevent another one of them."

Tori and Evelyn walk over to the other end of the room, they were talking for a few minutes – but then Tori and Evelyn began to shout. So I decided to step outside, I need to be alone after tonight.

-Page Break-

Outside of the room is very quiet to my surprise, because I was expecting to still hear Tori's shouting. I sit down against the wall and lean my head back a little too hard I guess, ow. I need to stop doing that.

Edith wants a government with all faction representation, and the divergent running the head of the government. Evelyn would most likely refuse that idea; she wants to make sure there are no factions.

What if the Factionless were reassigned to a new faction? Leaders could be selected and be responsible for training divergent, we could have two from each faction. So the divergent will come out of initiation well rounded, and can choose which faction to live in.

Maybe the factions can also have representation in the government, but we should have two Divergent leaders – they would be able to look from every faction's perspective, and make a choice that is best for the city.

Next year, the Divergent initiates could choose whether to stay and work in their faction, or join the team of Divergent who will make the path to Washington D.C…

"Hey Tris," I look up to see Tobias and I smile, "Hey Tobias,"

Tobias sits down next to me, he bangs his head against the wall too, and I start laughing, "What's so funny Tris?" I grin, "I did the same thing too!" Tobias smiles, and laces his hand with mine.

"I couldn't stand hearing Tori scream, so I left right behind you. It seems like my mom and Tori will never come to a decision, so I guess you needed to come out here to have some time to yourself."

I look at Tobias, "Actually, I haven't been out here for the past five minutes keeping to myself." Tobias squeezes my hand, and I squeeze back. "I have a few ideas about what to do, and I think they might work."

Tobias leans and kisses me on the top of my head, my forehead, and then my mouth. I become desperate and I wrap my arm around his neck, accidentally messing up his hair in the process.

The door swings open again. Can't we ever get some privacy? I swear to god I am putting a padlock on our door once we get back to the compound.

I look up to see Zeke; he has a sly smile on his face. He yells back into the room, "Tori! They're doing it again!" In an exaggerated voice he says "Eww!"

Tobias whispers in my ear, "Come on Tris," he gets on his feet and offers a hand to help me up. "Let's go change tell them your idea."

We walk hand in hand into the room together to change the world.

-Page Break-

Evelyn sighs, "Your idea Tris, might work." I suppress a smile that began to crawl across my face.

"I just have one question, how do you plan to recruit the Divergent who have already chosen their factions?" I already thought of this answer, "We can give them to option to go to Divergent Training, or they can stay in their factions."

Tobias wraps his arms around me and plants a kiss on my head. "How will you choose who will train the Divergent?"

I look up at him, "Two leaders from each faction will be responsible for one of the five parts of their training," "Maybe we can train the Divergent and the initiates next year Tris," I smile, "I hope so," I turn around and kiss him.

Zeke runs up to us and wedges us apart, "NO PDA!" I partly understand why he did that, Harrison and Tori are rolling their eyes, and Evelyn is shooting me a death glare. I also understand Zeke wanted to be funny, because of the look on his face.

I wait for Zeke to walk away, I pick up a heavy book and hurl it in between his legs, and it hit right on target. Zeke grabs the area where his zipper is and groans, Tobias give me the 'that must've hurt' expression. I say to Zeke, "Eww! Stop grabbing yourself, you look like Michael Jackson!"

Everyone in the room turns around and looks at Zeke, and he begins to blush. "Hey Tris, go get me an icepack!" I turn around and shoot a look at him, he smiles back. I pick up another book, "Alright I'll go get it myself!"

Tori stands up and looks around the room, "I suggest you go back to your rooms and pack, we will be leaving for the Dauntless Compound at 8:30 this morning.

"At the compound we will finalize the Government plans, Tris, Tobias, and Zeke – I am putting you all in charge for finding the instructions in apartment 23B, you can get help from your friends if you need it." We all nod in approval.

We all begin to filter out of the room, when I walk out someone catches my arm and pulls me to the side, its Edward. "Yeah, Edward?"

He looks me into the eyes, and sighs. "I want to thank you, for what you did at the compound – you know when I got stabbed in the eye…"

"For what Edward?" I frown in confusion, "You were always really nice to me, and when I got stabbed, you were there by my side, you helped me."

I smile, "I needed to help you, and you were in pain, I couldn't stand back and watch. I hope you understand that."

He returns the smile, "Tris, I just wanted to say – You're brave, and I'm glad you were there for me."

He gives me a hug, "Thanks Edward, I'm dating Tobias – I hope you know." I blush, I can't believe he just hugged me, he must have known I'm dating Tobias. I turn around and walk back to the room.

When I'm at the door Zeke walks by and smiles, "Tomorrow night party at my place Tris!"
