All I own is the brain that created the plot none of the characters are mine
Tris's POV
"What?!" I scream as Christina hits me repetitively with her silky pink pillow. "It's time to get up Tris!" Christina says. I stare at her blankly, she lets out an exasperated sigh, "What am I going to do with you Tris? Our big trek, remember." I still don't get it. Christina rolls her eyes, "Remember I said that for your twenty-first birthday we were going to somewhere exotic and new and I landed us a trip to Antarctica?" She says. "Oh yeah only because you won a trip from that stupid game show, Are You Make-up, and you forced me to go with you?" I reply. "Yeah I remember." "Well, while you were sleeping I booked us a trek out in the Tundra!" she squeals. (I did a report on the tundra) "Oh yeah, Yippee!" I say with fake enthusiasm. Christina doesn't seem to notice. "Well then, off you go! Get ready and take a shower!" she says while pinching her nose. "Fine." I mumble and trudge off to the bathroom. "Make sure to scrub really good, don't want to be smelly if we see any guys!" This sets me off, I glare at her she knows how much I tell her that I'm fine without a boyfriend. I quickly shower and get dressed. I pick out a faded Beatles T-shirt, (I4 the Beatles!) some black snow pants, a heavy duty jacket, and some brown boots strapped to some snowshoes. Christina gasps "You're wearing that!" she looks at me like I just dressed myself in some fish guts. "Yes Christina, I am wearing that." I reply. "Well no friend of mind will be caught wearing some Eskimo skins." "Oh yeah like I choose to be seen with some shiny glitter monster." I say as eye her up and down; she's wearing a hot pink sparkly jacket with some skintight metallic black pants, and brown boots laced with pink and purple stripped laces. "Christina!" I gasp, "You're not even protected! Do you not remember the safety guide? It said you have to wear heavy duty, specially made clothes and your not even wearing snowshoes!" I nearly scream at her. "Fine, I'll dress us both fashionably and safely to your standers." She says. I end up keeping my T-shirt, at least she'll give me that, a coral colored heavy duty coat, heavy duty, metallic, black pants, some brown leather boots strapped to coral snow shoes. While Christina ends up just changing her pants to ones like mine and strapping on some hot pink snowshoes.
We head out to the front of our hotel and wait for the bus. The bus comes and the ratty old doors open up revealing a grumpy man he has greasy black hair and a million piercings, he looks about two years older than me. "You getting on or not?" he asks me with irritation. "Oh, oh, yes" I say hurriedly not wanting to miss the bus. I plop down in a seat next to a window that has Uriah was here carved below it. A gush of wind startles me and I realize it was the door closing. While I was reading the words about a thousand more people got on. "Hey you there? Earth to Trisss." Christina says as she waves her hand in front of my face. "Oh yeah sorry" I reply.
After about a half an hour later we get off the bus and are greeted by an older man with dark hair wearing the same clothes as us, minus all the glitter and glam. "My name's Max and I'm going to be your Tour guide." The man booms, a second later the bus driver snorts. "Quiet Eric!" Max shouts since the wind and snow around us is very loud. "In the event that you get lost wave this flag." He shows us a flag.

"Where do we get one?" snorts a light-haired boy who is surrounded by a girl and a boy. "In this backpack, which I will pass out later." Max replies, "Can I have your name?" He asks the boy "Peter, don't you forget it." The boy snorts. "As I was saying, you could also shoot this flare gun or blow this whistle." Max shows us a whistle and an orange gun, "There are only ten flares use them wisely." he says, "There is some food, water, matches, sleeping bags, cups, and small tents also stored in your backpack to use if you get lost if not you should be fine!" Max says. "Well that's about it, ERIC! Pass out the bags and walking sticks." Max commands. Eric stumbles out of his seat and reaches for some bags. "Yes sir!" Eric comes out and starts passing out florescent orange backpacks then puts the bag on the floor and says, "Come and get em'!" Christina is the first to push her way through the crowd while trampling a few people and digs through the bag. She jumps up with two walking sticks raised in the air, one coral, and one hot pink. "Got em'!" she shouts and hands the coral one to me. I have no idea who makes walking sticks in these colors. Everyone else slowly makes their way to the bag and picks out a walking stick. I thought we had the crazy colored sticks but I stand corrected. I see people pulling out rainbow sticks, Electric green sticks, gold, silver, and neon yellow, you name it. "Are … you… READY!" Max asks, everyone shouts in reply. "Well let's go!"
