Gabe POV
Now, I know this seems like Tris and Four's story, but this is something completely different. If you've ever met Deniah, I'll have you know that she is beyond Tris. Let's start shall we?
The morning sun rises on the horizon as I wake up to this stupid alarm clock. Today new initiates are coming, so I'll have to prepare. I get up sluggishly and get dressed. Once I finish brushing my teeth, I head out the door to the pit, where several new initiates were waiting for their trainers. Two of the initiates were arguing about something, twisting and turning to try to get a hold of each other. Girls. I think any boy knows how they really are. Most of them. I descend into the pit, twirling a knife around my finger. "I'm looking for a few initiates who want to come try climbing the building with the big hole in it. Person with the least wound by the time you get to the top wins. Who's coming?" I called to the crowd. several pushed past me trying to get there first. One of them caught my eye. A boy from Amity was leaning against the wall, not following the rest. I believe his name was something like, uh, Michael Fallow, I believe. I walked over to him and looked in straight in the eyes. "Look, I think you'll need the popularity around here, so you should get going with them." I said with a bit of force in my voice. he got up and started slumping to the door. I didn't quite take this well. "Hey, actually, later I'll take you, just us, ok?" He nodded with a hint of a glare in his eyes.
That night
I stood on the roof breathing in the cool night air, dark chilly breezes sweeping around my feet. Finally, after what seemed like hours, Michael came with his bow slung over his shoulder. "Honestly, I thought you got scared and hid under a bed of something." I said, glaring at him. I checked the zip line behind me once more, then held a knife out to Michael. "You'll need this for where we're going." I said with a smirk as he snatched the knife from my hand. I gestured to the zip line and the sling. "Ladies first." He carefully strapped himself in and began sliding down. "First lesson, how to survive and ambush and hide. Have fun!" I called after him as I sliced the zip line. "YOU"VE GOT TO BE SH*TTING ME-" Michael screamed in anger and panic as he began free falling. he grabbed the remaining rope quickly and swung into a nearby building. He looked down at his rope-burned hands. I attached a grappling hook to a pole and swung down after him and somersaulted in easily. "I assume you're a Dauntless leader or something?" He forced, grimacing in pain. I smiled at this. "No, but one day, I'm going to lead this faction. I'll make it even better." I said looking off into the distance at where the dauntless headquarters should have been. "One day."
