Authors Note – Hey everyone, firstly, if you've clicked on this story thank you so much!

This story will be Divergent written in Tobias' POV from the moment him and Tris meet to the end of the novel. Once I'm finished this I'll also be writing Insurgent in his POV. I'll be labelling this chapter as 1 and continue like that but before I start the actual chapter I will be writing which one it is in the book.

Please read and review and happy reading! :)

Disclaimer: I do not own the Divergent trilogy; full credit goes to Veronica Roth.


Chapter in Book: 6

Waiting for the first jumper fills the cavern with anticipation. You can hear the mutters coming from all angles speculating which faction the first jumper will come from. Dauntless-born or transfer? Last year it was an Erudite transfer. Some nosey kid called Derrick.

"Hopefully it'll be a dauntless-born this year, haven't had one in a while," Lauren says from my left.

The faint sound of footsteps overhead echo through the cavern, followed by voices. Silence washes over everyone like a wave. There's a catcall and then the first jumper is plummeting towards the net.

The frail looking silhouette is dressed in an all too familiar grey.

Abnegation.

The first jumper was from Abnegation?

She hits the net and the impact forces her to fold in on herself and knocks the wind out of her. She looks as if she's no older than 12.

I reach out my hand and her tiny fingers wrap around mine. I can't help but be startled by the size difference. Her fingers look as thin as pencils in comparison to mine, which look like sausages. She mumbles a thank you as she stands and her eyes float up to meet mine for a fraction of a second. She has an unusual face that would look strange on a bigger girl. Her eyes are a little too big and her nose a little too long, but her petite frame and veil of blonde hair somehow make the combination striking on her. She looks away.

"Can't believe it, a Stiff the first to jump? Unheard of", Lauren states matter-of-factly. There's a distant edge of disbelief and superiority in her voice. I don't like it.

"There's a reason why she left them Lauren", I say trying to take the attention away from Lauren. She's acting like an Abnegation doesn't deserve the honour of being first jumper. Does she forget I used to be one? "What's your name?"

"Um", she starts, uncertain. She looks conflicted like she's making an important decision that's unknown to those around her.

"Think about it, you don't get to pick again," I inform the girl, suddenly curious about her.

"Tris," she says determinedly, confident with her answer.

"Tris," I repeat back, our gazes on each other again. The corner of my mouth raises a little.

"Tris," Lauren says slowly. The edge in her voice is now gone. I'm glad. She seems approving now although I'm not sure why. How does your opinion of someone change that quickly? Whatever the reason, I'm glad Laurens laid off and accepted Tris. "Make the announcement, Four."

"First jumper – Tris!" I exclaim to the Dauntless that occupy the shadows. My announcement prompts them to emerge, followed by whoops and shouts. At this, Tris' eyes light up and I feel a smile tug at the corners of my lips.

Another girl lands, this one a Candor transfer. Tris smiles at the Candor girl while Lauren helps her out of the net. Before thinking it through, I touch Tris' back, momentarily forgetting my former faction's stance on idle touches. But it's too late for me to pull my hand back now and she's not moving away from it, so I keep it there and look to her wide-eyed face. "Welcome to Dauntless," I say.
