It's lunch.Me and Tobias huger in line.Im not really hungry and want to go off and just walk on my own.I'm just so distracted with the whole what's over the wall thing.

We find our usual table."Party at me house tomorrow!"Uriah shouts as a welcome.

"Nice to see you to,"I say,nodding.

"Whose com'n?"he places his chin on his fist and looks at us with his puppy eyes.

"Me!"Christina cries,nudging Will,who nods.

"Yeah!"say Mar and Lynn.

"Sure,"says Shauna.

"I live there so....."Zeke smirks.

"Tris?"Tobias looks at me with wide eyes.

"I don't know,I'm not really in a partying mood,"I take a bite of my hamburger.

"Look,I know that the deaths are bothering you-"Tobias starts but I roll my eyes and cut in.

"No,it's not that,well,that too,but don't any of you want to know what's outside that frickn wall!"I shout.

Everyone stares at me.

"When did my Trissy-poo start to use those kinds of words?Uriah asks,sounding offense.

"Since our last council meeting,"Tobias answers him and I glare at him.

"Hey,Tris,I know your imagination must be working overtime right now,but there's nothing out there!"Christina tries to take "sense" into me.

I bite my lip and get up.I still have half an hour lunch,so I can go and talk to the one person who will believe me.

"I have to go,see you guys later,"

"But you barely-"Tobias starts,but I'm already off to the tattoo parlor.

"It does add up Tris,"Tori says,taking a bite of her sandwich.

"Well,no one bothers to here out my logic,so,yeh,"I sigh.

"So do you agree with me?"I ask,tilting my head,not hiding that I'm desperate for a yes.

"I think,I mean,it makes sense,but,Tris,you know nothing's out there,"Tori frowns,"sorry."

I look down and get up."That's okay,thanks,see you later Tori,"

"Bye,"she waves.

+++

I'm on our bed,laying onTobias' chest,waiting for my friends to come over so I can explain my idea about all this.

"Your heart's rhythm is soothing,"I mumble.

He laughs,causes my head to bounce.I lift it of and look at him.

"What?"he asks.

"Do you wanna go to the party Friday?"I ask.

"Yeh,it'd be fun,you know,a break from our busy schedules."

"Okay,I guess we can go!"I smile.

He goes to respond,but is interrupted by the doorbell.

"I'll get it,"

+++

"So,the deaths have a pattern,"I look at everyone,making sure they are paying attention.

"On Thursdays and Saturdays,that's when they are killed.They occur near to wall,always,the bodies are found there."

"And?"Uriah says,"Come on,we all know that Erudite is still the prime suspect,they spared half of the frickn traitors,including your idiot brother Caleb,no hard feelings,I love you Trissy,but,Erudite are capable of this,they've done it before!"

I glare at him and sigh."I agree with my brother Tris,"Zeke chimes in.

I look to Tobias.Why doesn't anyone ever listen to me?!

"Okay,but aren't any of you curious,huh,no ones ever been out there!"I death stare them all.  

"I guess,but these deaths-"Mar starts.

"Are more important,yes,I know,but the other side of the wall has something to do with it and if no one will help me I'll find out on my own!"I get up from the couch in Uriah and Zeke's apartment and leave.
