Tobias POV

I look over at Zeke...why isn't he doing anything? If they find out she's divergent again she's going to be kicked out. I look over at her. She seems out of words. I take a deep breath...I have to do this. I stand up.

"If she says something she will spill my personal information too is that really how you treat a dauntless leader?" I ask Uriah. He looks around and sighs.

"Alright...Terry you can't use that against her, anything but getting personal" he says. Lauren exhales an angry breath next to me. I take a seat and look at Tris. The tension fades away and she looks calm now.

"Okay, well...I honestly feel like we can't trust her" Terry states.

"We need feedback you can't necessarily give personal comments" Zeke says. Terry sighs.

"Some of our crew took the time to go into Tris bedroom...we looked into her laptop a-"

"You what?!" Tris yells. I look over at her. She's standing up now. Both hands on the stand. She needs to calm herself.

"Tris...you talk only when we ask" Zeke says. She scowls and lays back in her chair.

"We found unanimous emails coming her way...we can't trace who exactly it is but if we hand it over to Fernando he might be able to hack into there" unanimous emails?

"Can I see them" Uriah and Zeke both say at the same time. I look over at Tris. She's sitting straighter. What did she do? I feel kind of off for a second. She seems afraid to reveal whats on there. I trusted her...

Zeke and Uriah study the papers. Uriah leans into the microphone but Zeke snatches it away.

"Are you an idiot?!" He yells at Terry. What? "If it clearly states not to tell anyone why would you..." he slams the table. The whole jury remains silent. What do they say?

"The emails are threats heading towards Tris...if she tells anyone people she loves in dauntless will get hurt" Uriah says.

Zeke leans into the microphone "Tris will stay here in dauntless under our protection...anyone against that is free to leave" He walks out the doors.

I motion over to Tris. She stands there staring at the ground.

"You okay?"

"Yeah..." I stand in front of her to where we're only inches apart. I just want to close this space between us...not yet though.

"Dauntless don't care who you are alright" I say trying to comfort her "who's threatening you?"

"I don't know...I feel like it may be the erudite or drew but I'm not sure" I nod.

"I just need you to stay here in dauntless...if you want to go out just let us know" she nods. I don't want to leave her just yet but Zeke wanted me to go talk to him. "I'll see around" I say. I walk off.

Tris POV

I head towards Fernando's office laptop in hand. I need to know if it's drew or not. I walk into his office and place my laptop on the counter next to another computer.

"You're ready aren't you" he says. I take a seat next to him as he lifts up the laptop. He opens it and immediately enters my password.

"How do you-"
