Chapter 3
I cannot believe how many views I've gotten for this story! Thank you guys so much for reading, I really appreciate all of my followers!
Please review or PM me if you think I should do a chapter or two from Tris or another initiates point of view. Or let me know if you like my initiates or not :)
"Tori?" I ask.
My voice is louder than I expected, and all of the initiates turn to me.
"Tori? Like Tori the tattoo artist?" Six asks. "How do you even know her?"
"I met her at the Choosing Ceremony" I reply, and she nods thoughtfully.
"Maybe. I heard that she was a transfer, but she told everyone she was Dauntless-born and just didn't have any family here" she says, and shrugs. "But there are other Victoria's in this faction. Anyway, let's keep moving."
Six leads us around Dauntless, from the cafeteria to the tattoo parlor to the fear landscape room. In each place, we slowly get to know each other.
There are eight transfers, including me. Besides Annie, there's another girl who's also from Erudite, who introduces herself as Maggie. She has brown hair and hazel eyes, and she's about average height and weight-at least from what I can see.
Then there's a boy and girl from Amity. They seem like they know each other very well-guess they would, being from the same faction. And maybe they're more personal in Amity, but they seem very close.
Suddenly, I realize that what I am looking at is a relationship. The concept of being with somebody like that is so foreign to me, because I never interacted with anyone outside of my home.
Their names are Nick and Addy. Nick is always making Addy laugh, with his sarcastic, mischievous attitude. He's lanky, and taller than her by a few inches-although she is pretty tall-but neither of them seem to mind. He looks like a troublemaker, but in reality he is very nerdy, with his laughing green eyes behind glasses, and his constant sarcastic remarks about, well, everything.
Addy, on the other hand, is the perfect match for him. Tall and pale, she has hazel eyes and a shy smile surrounded by extremely curly chocolate-brown hair. She's quieter most of the time, letting Nick do the talking. But her laugh is something special, and it always seems to resonate around the room, no matter how loud it is. She's like a ray of sunshine, and Nick is always with her. They don't kiss or anything, but they mess around and joke with each other a lot.
Then there's Ian, a big muscular boy from Candor. Like Nick, his personality is much different than his looks suggest. He's very shy and quiet, and if he wasn't so big, I wouldn't have even known he was there. He has very short blond hair and blue-gray eyes, and hasn't said anything to us other than his name-very unusual for a Candor.
Hayden is the typical bully from Candor. His buzz-cut black hair and ice-blue eyes are enough for me to stay well away. Not to mention he is super tall and extremely muscular.
Callie is the last one to introduce herself. Her darker skin, deep brown eyes, and black wavy hair make her seem like she could melt into the shadows. She seems mysterious, her eyes seeming to penetrate me and reveal all of my secrets to the world. I know I'm exaggerating, but she just seems...different. And I'm more than a little scared of her.
Not because of her dark, quiet persona...but because I didn't see her until she was the last one to introduce herself. We didn't have another place to go to, since we were already at the dormitory, so she just said her name after Hayden did.
When I saw her, I stiffened in shock. She was wearing a loose gray long-sleeved shirt and dark silver leggings. Abnegation colors.
But how…?
She walked to the front of the group and smiled.
"Hello. I'm Callie" she said. "from Abnegation." She waved and rejoined the group. As she did, she brushed past me and murmured, "Long time no see, Eaton."
I barely hear her, staring at her in shock and amazement. Because I know, unlike the other initiates, that she's lying.
I have never seen her before in Abnegation. Ever.
Ahhhh! Another cliffy! Sorry 'bout that folks, but I just really wanted to end on that. Callie is obviously going to be the most important OC in this story, so I will focus on her a lot.
And if you are reading this story for the FourTris, I promise you that it will come soon! It may not be the first relationship that Tobias is in, but I promise that it will be the second and last!
This is my first long-term project, with more developing of characters, and more complex plot(s), so I will most likely have 10-20 chapters (hopefully each as long as the first chapter). I will try to update every few days, but I can't promise anything!
