Chapter 29

"Silence In the Court!" A Candor judge calls out. This is it.

Tobias and I walk to the front of the room, and stand by the Plaintiff's podium, made of black and white chiseled marble. Caleb glares daggers at us, and I glare back. I just challenged him.

1 Hour Later- I don't want to go all Judge Judy on You!

"The Jury has reached a verdict, sir!" A man from the jury comes out from a sleek, black, glass door.

Everyone has been on the stand- Tobias, My Dad, My Mom, Fernando, Cara, and other Erudite people, Zeke, and I. It's basically Caleb v.s. The city. I

The whole Jury emerges slowly from the black glass door, and goes back to their seats.

A Juror clears her throat, and says "We find the Defendant Guilty beyond a shadow of a doubt!" Caleb's head flies back, and he has pure rage in his eyes.

I had no idea that crime could do that to a person.

The Judge bangs his small, wooden gavel on the edge of his desk. "Punishment of the Death Penalty- He was set on killing many Divergents- who are just normal people; and we believe in a life for a life!" The Judge says.

"Execution will be held in Erudite, and Convict will be held under maximum security- for the protection of the public!" His officer adds.

I can see my parents fighting the tears; crying is extremely self-indulgent; therefore, they shouldn't be doing it.

Page Break---------------

When we get back to the Dauntless compound, Chris comes running toward me with the biggest grin on her face.

"What?" I ask, looking at her, while she's grinning like an idiot.

"Tris..," she trails off, "I'M GETTING MARRIED!!" She screeches, and hugs Tobias and I. "WillproposedwhilewewereeatingatthedauntlessdinerandIwaslikeOMG!" She quickly says, stopping afterward to take a breath.

"What? Chris, you really need to start using your words right!" I say, since I have no idea in hell of what she just said.

"I said: Will proposed while we were eating at the Dauntless Diner and I was like OMG!!" She repeats, just a little slower.

"Which means: SHOPPING!" She adds. "Noooo! I say, as she drags me away. "T-FOUR, HELP!!" I scream.

He just laughs, and waves at me. "Good Luck, Tris!" He says, before turning on the heel of his old, black combat boot, and walking in the direction of the apartment.
