Chapter 2:
Tris' POV:
As the last of the screams are settling, Uriah and Lauren walk up to the net.
"Just in time," Tobias says as they are close enough to hear.
Uriah scoffs. "Please, you guys have probably been here for hours; we saw what you did, Four."
Tobias blushes, and I feel the heat rising in my cheeks.
"Yeah, well, I like to be early…" Tobias says casually.
"Right…" Uriah says.
"Oh shut up," I retort. I hear screams coming from the roof, and quickly turn around to see a girl falling to the net. "Here they come," I whisper.
I reach out to the girl once she falls, and she grabs my hand, thanking me as she scoots over the edge of the net. She is tall, and blond. Already, I can tell she is determined – her eyes tell me everything. I look at her red shirt and yellow jeans, and know she's Amity; that's new.
"What's your name?" Tobias – Four rather – asks the girl.
"Gabriella," she says boldly.
"Make the announcement, Four," I say giddily, remembering my first day.
"First Jumper – Gabriella!" he yells.
All of a sudden, the crowd of Dauntless jumps out, screaming, in greeting to Gabriella's trip here.
The next scream comes trailing down, and I turn around again to address the jumper; the next jumper is also a girl.

I study the transfers, and this is the outcome:
· Chloe: Erudite transfer, smart-mouth, obviously checking out my boyfriend.
· Avery: Erudite transfer, some-what nice than Chloe, but not by much, smart-mouth, also checking out my boyfriend.
· Riley: Erudite transfer, a lot more respectful than Chloe and Avery, more of an observer rather than smarty.
· Gabriella: Amity transfer, very respectful, determined, ferocious.
· Taylor: Candor transfer, a nice girl, maybe too nice. She interacts with Chloe and Avery, but not like them at all.
· Hannah: Candor transfer, not as nice as some, totally checking out Tobias.
· Zoey: Candor transfer, not likeable at all, totally checking out my boyfriend.
· Matthew: Erudite transfer, ignoramus.
· Mason: Amity transfer, very likeable, nice boy.
· Lucas: Erudite transfer, extremely intolerable.
· Logan: Amity transfer, the complete opposite of Mason.
· Ryan: Candor transfer, ridiculously obnoxious.
· Grayson: Candor transfer, opposite of Ryan, thank god.
· Noah: Abnegation transfer, completely Abnegation, except for the fiery determination.
"Alright initiates, this is Uriah, my name is Lauren. We will be taking the Dauntless born. Please follow us," Lauren says. No one seems to be listening, and none of us speak up, except me.
"Initiates, pay attention!" I yell. "Dauntless born with Lauren and Uriah, transfers, you're with Four and I, got it?" that got their attention. I love this job.
