The last fight just finished and it was Christina against Will. Christina lost and now I have to fight her as well. If I lose I will get kicked out. If she loses she will get kicked out. The thought makes me sick to my stomach and I feel like crying. I take a deep breath and get ready for my first fight against Raven. I'm not too scared for this fight because Raven is a very weak component. Before I fight, I need to talk to Eric.

"Are you seriously going to make me fight my friend to find a spot in Dauntless?" I whispered to Eric. He rolled his eyes and scoffed.

"Please. We are not arguing about this. Fight her or just get kicked out. Your choice." he said cooly.

"Thanks for your support." I mutter sarcastically. Eric suddenly gets stiff and grabs my arm tightly.

"Watch it, initiate." he quietly growled. I tug my arm away from his grip and march towards the mat. The anger inside me is bubbling and I know I am going to burst at any minute. Raven slowly steps on the mat and I hear Eric say, "Start." I circle around her and make the first move. A fake punch to the stomach then kick her legs from under her. While she's on the ground I put my legs around hers and punch her one time, then two, then three until I feel someone pick me up.

"What the fuck was that Stiff?" shouts Edward. I shake off myself and take a deep breath.

"Oh my god, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to…" I apologize. Raven is completely unconscious and bloody.

What have I done, I think to myself. I look over to Eric and see a smug look on his face. I clench my jaw and grit my teeth. I make it a point to look at him in his eyes and then storm out of the room. I hear footsteps following me and I quickly turn the corner, not wanting to talk to anybody. Frankly, I'm embarrassed about my anger outburst and that Eric has that power over me. The footsteps get closer and I sigh loudly and turn around.

"What do you want?" I ask annoyed as I make my way to Four's eyes.

"Just wanted to check on you and see what that whole thing back there was about." he asks, kind of timidly.

"Just forget about it. We might as well just end this thing as well since I'm gonna be factionless soon." I blurt out accidently. I don't take it back though. I just go with it.

"Hey, don't say that. You'll beat your components. From what I can see, it'll be easy." he reassures me. I don't need to hear this right now.

"Just leave me alone Four, please. I'm sick of this right now and just need some alone time." I declare, looking at the floor.

"Okay, talk later then?" he asks with hope visible in his voice.

"No. I'm sorry but I can't do this right now." I say gesturing my hand to him and me. He nods slowly, getting what I mean. I feel a pang in my heart, but I know it's the right thing.

"I'm sorry I gotta go," I mutter, then I run down the hall. I don't know where I'm going until I recognize the apartments. Eric's. I knock on the door that I remember he brought me to. He answers and looks at me expectantly.

"I want to fight you instead." I decisively say to him. He raises his eyebrows and I see a grin grow on his face. Then he starts laughing harder than I've ever heard him laughing. I let out a frustrated sigh.

"Eric I'm serious. I'm not fighting Christina."

"Shut up, Stiff. Do you have a death wish."

"Possibly. If I fight you and you win then I will just leave. If I win, then Christina stays and I only have to fight you." I say.

"This is not up for debate. N.O." he answers and closes the door, but I put my hand on it before me can.

"Please just hear me out. What are you, scared?" I tease. This makes him start to laugh again.

"Yeah, petrified. Whatever. It's your loss." he says and closes the door. I smile a little and walk back to the fighting room. I drink water and start to warm up. I need to win this. I have to. While warming up I hear a clattering in the corner and I squint to try to see through the darkness and I start to make out the face: Marcus. He has an evil grin on his face.

"Hi Beatrice. We need to talk about you and your results." he announces, the evil grin growing wider. My heart sinks as I look down and see a gun in his hand.
