Chapter 3

Tris POV

I walk into the training room early. I set up the knives on the table, and adjust the targets. A few minutes later the initiates begin to file in, Four leading. I spy Melody in the back of the line. Instead of following everyone else, she sits down. I march over to her and say, "Today is knife throwing, so what are you doing?"

"I'm injured," she replies with a smirk.

"Are you right handed, or left handed?"

"Right," she replies.

"And what arm did the bullet hit?"

"Left," she groans, obviously knowing where I'm going with this.

"If I recall, it only takes one hand to throw a knife. So get up," I say.

She moans as she pull herself up and follows me to the center of the room, where Tobias is already explaining todays activity. When he is done, everybody grabs a knife and starts to throw. When it was time for lunch, I finally got my chance to go to the cafeteria. I grabbed some food and sat down next to Christina, who was munching on her french fries hungrily.

"How you doing?" she asks, in between bites of her french fries.

"Good."

After lunch, Tobias and I walk back to the training rooms. We re-arrange the knives for the initiates, and just when I'm done, I feel strong arms grab me by my waist and hoist me over his shoulders. "Tobias," I groan. He flings me on top of his shoulders, and I sit there for a moment before the initiates come in. Tobias walks to the center- with me still on his shoulders- and begins to talk.

"For the first hour, you will continue to throw knives," I hear groans from the crowd, but Tobias just ignores them and continues on, "For the rest of class after that, we will be working on how to perform a push-up."

Tobias and I watch the initiates throw the knives, evaluating each initiate carefully. When it's time to work on push-ups, Eric walks in.

"Today I will help you with your push-ups," he starts, "Four, please demonstrate."

Four rolls his eyes as he starts to do push-ups.

"Now," Eric starts, pointing a crooked finger at me, "Sit on his back."

"What?"

"Yes, you!"

I walk over to Four and sit on his back.

"Notice his form, even with her on his back. You may stop now," says Eric.

A/N: Sorry this is REALLY short, I know. I just needed to upload something for my friend before time runs out. (I'm in class)
