I get up to the sound of my alarm clock screaming at me to get up. Today was my first day as initiate trainer! I throw myself into the shower and rush to get ready, throwing on a plain black t-shirt and skinny jeans. When I got to the cafeteria, I saw Christina with Will. And.. Four?
Just, great. Great. Great. As if it wasn't bad enough. Not only had I gotten a crush on my trainer during initiation, but when it came time to choose our jobs, i chose to see him everyday! What torture. It doesn't really matter though, I am pretty sure him and Lauren have a thing.
I sit down next to Will, and he stares at me. "What the hell took you so long, sleeping beauty?" I feel heat rushing to my cheeks so I just shake my head. "I don't know.. I woke up on time. Long shower?"
He just smiles, "muffin?" I smile back and take it. I nibble at the top, seeing Christina staring at me. She hates the way I eat them, but it's perfectly good either way. I feel someone tap my shoulder, and I turn around to see Four. When did he get up? I sure have been zoning out a lot lately. "Yeah?" I ask him. He just waves his hand, and i follow him, waving goodbye to Christina and Will.
He takes me to the training room. "We need to talk about initiation," he says. I just nod, so he continues, "don't play favorites. Don't tell them your previous faction, real name. Don't show emotion, call them out. Show them who is in charge. They will not take you seriously otherwise." He tells me. "Do you understand?" I just smile and nod. I thought I saw the slightest evidence of a smile on his face, but I let it slide, unsure.
We make our way to the net. "So," Four says, turning to me. "Who do you think first jumper will be?" I think for a second, there's no way to know, but I take a wild guess anyways. "I think... Erudite." He raises an eyebrow, and has only a faint laugh, "my bet is on Amity."
I hear the train, and know they are close. Max's voice only proves my suspicions. I hear a scream, and a moment later a small girl grabs Four's arm, and I see she's wearing white. Candor. We both lost. "Name?" He asks. "Belle," she responds. "FIRST JUMPER - BELLE!" He yells. She jumps down, and he turns to look at me, "I guess we both lost," and turns back around as the rest of the initiates jump down.
I take notes on each initiate that comes down.
