Just a couple of notes. This was a weird idea that came to me recently because I felt like we didn't get to see Tris really get more into her new faction. Maybe she wasn't supposed to but I would have loved to have seen her do that. There is are places here that you will have to go back to the book to get the whole scene but hopefully you'll figure it out.

Divergent

(If the tracking serum was not ready yet pushing the off the war for a bit.)

(there are bits in here that are taken from the book or that you will have to go back to the book to read)

Starting at the end of Tris' fear landscape.

The door opens and I turn to see Max, Eric, Tobias, and a few people I don't know walk into the room in a line, then stand in a small crowd in front of me. Tobias frowns at me with what looks like worry.

"Congratulations, Tris," Eric says with an awful smile. "You have successfully completed your final evaluation."

I try to smile but it doesn't work because I can't shake the memory of the gun barrel against my forehead.

"Thanks," I mumble

"Don't thank me yet," Eric says to me menacingly, "We have some questions for you and Four."

Eric grabs my arm and drags me out of the fear landscape room to another room down the hall. I look back to see Four walking in the opposite direction following Max. What did I do wrong? I think to myself and I start to go over every fear to figure out what I could have possibly done that would give me away.

Eric throws me in the empty room and starts to circle me like predator to prey. "So I thought Four rejected you? That's why you ran away isn't it? Went to Erudite to see your brother wasn't it? You kissed him and he rejected you and you freaked out and ran away with your tail between your legs like a coward?" He speaks quietly and calmly but that only makes this situation more dangerous, "You see I have been watching you two and you've been spending a lot of time together. And from what we saw in that fear landscape your relationship seems to have moved a lot further than a kiss."

Oh, that's what this was about? I was feeling more confident now. "It didn't go beyond a kiss. That I initiated and he rejected." I am not going to give him any more information than he needs. Hopefully, Tobias was giving the same story.

"Really?" he stopped and stared with an evil smile, and my stomach sank a little bit. He leans in and says "That was a pretty detailed landscape. Detailed enough that I have a feeling you two have become pretty close. Which would explain why you became the worst to the best practically overnight the same way Four did. He gave you an unfair advantage."

I stand there for a second trying to figure out how to play this. Play weak now and it will show I don't deserve to be here. Play it too tough and I am being insubordinate. I get an idea and chuckle as I walk to a wall and lean against it. Relaxing my body to show I'm not worried, "That's where you're going with this?"

I laugh harder in a self deprecating way, "Yeah, I kissed him and he pushed me away. I've had time to think about it and I know he had every reason to reject me even if it's a blow to my ego. Nobody likes rejection especially if you've never taken the chance before. Abnegation don't exactly go around showing affection that way," I say very sarcastically, "I played my cards and I lost, and I have to deal with that." I look away and take a deep breath and sigh then turn back to him, "That doesn't mean, however, that I don't still think he's hot, because he is. But if you were watching my fear landscape you could probably see that I would have no idea what to do even if he did want me. And that is what the fear was about. So, yeah, I'm still a little obsessed with him but hopefully I will get over it soon because it's way more of a distraction than I need it to be."

I could see his former Erudite brain clicking, "Hmmm, I didn't think stiffs could be that honest?"

I know I just handed him a lot of ammunition but if it got me out of trouble for now it would at least be a way to buy me some time.

I grit my teeth, "I'm not a stiff anymore and I don't want Four getting into trouble because I have a crush that he doesn't reciprocate. That wasn't his fault. That's completely on me."

Eric nodded but was still studying me, "Fine, but I will be watching you two. You're free to go."

I nod my head to show that I've heard him and I push away from the wall with a roll of my eyes. I have to show that I'm not worried even though I am. Attitude is everything in Dauntless and looking scared doesn't help you. I open the door and start to walk down the hallway toward the Pire lobby. I see Tobias exit a room and head in my direction gritting his teeth. He has a thunderous expression and he starts to make a move towards me instead of turning towards the lobby. I shake my head minutely and look up at the cameras on the wall. But he comes towards me anyway and points at me angrily, "I am NOT going to let YOU ruin my life. Whatever your problem is get over it." I know it's an act because I know Tobias but right now he is Four and he is scary.

I stare him down because I know I'm being watched and any weakness will not help me now. "I'm sorry but I don't control what shows up in my fear landscape. Trust me if I could I would."

"Just find someone else to screw with, leave me out of it," he stated angrily as he stomped off. The words hurt even if I knew he didn't mean them. They brought tears to my eyes and I cross my arms to hold myself together. I look away and see Eric standing there laughing at me. I straighten my shoulders and walk off through the crowd of onlookers. Nothing like being the main attraction.

I walk around the compound for a long time before finding myself at the train tracks waiting for a train to come by so I can hop on. I just need to get out for awhile and breathe. And I'll be back before supper so as long as I stay on the train I should be fine.

Pulling myself in the car I realize I'm not alone. Four is already sitting against one of the walls. I go and sit down beside him. "Well this is awkward," I say and he nods throwing an arm over my shoulders. I am reassured that he really didn't mean what he said earlier. "I'm sorry I got you in trouble."

He hugged me closer, "I'm sorry I had to yell at you like that. I would rather have done this." And he pulls me in closer for a kiss.

I smile a little as I pull away, "What did you say to them?"

He shrugged, "I had plausible deniability. I honestly have no idea why I was in your fear landscape. Why was I there anyway? Why are you afraid of me?"

(Goes into the scene that was in his apartment but on the train where she discusses her fear of sex and she shows him her tattoo. He doesn't take his shirt off but lifts it up in back to show her his.)

Tobias adds before we go our separate ways, "You know I'll have to act pissed off at you for awhile. We have to play the part."

I nod, "Yeah I know, and I'm going to have to spend more time with my friends." Then I grin mischievously, "I may have to actually flirt with other guys."

He groans, "I know that would be best but I don't want to see that."

"Well maybe we'll work out something soon. There are no rules about us getting together afterward."

"We'll have to do it in a way that doesn't cause suspicion."

(Soon it was time to go to dinner and going into the dining hall is the same but without them walking there together. They separate immediately after jumping off the train. Also this added dialog. )

Christina asked, "So what was that little scene with you and Four? Everybody's been talking about it."

I close my eyes and sigh, "He was in my fear landscape."

Christina laughed, "Well why would that be abnormal? He's a scary guy. Other than I would think Eric would be there before Four."

I have to remind myself that she doesn't know why Four was there, "Yeah, well, it was completely blown out of proportion." I say picking at a roll and stuffing my face so I wouldn't have to talk anymore.

After the rankings are announced I look around and see Four leaning by the door with his arms crossed. He returns my stare with no expression at first then a slight upturn of the corners of his mouth, there's my Tobias. He grits his teeth and puts the Four mask back on walking out the door.
