A/N: Whassup fam?! You are at the entrance of Chapter 10. I'm not going to say anything about the small number of reviews I'm getting, so I'm just going to continue this story either way. A couple of thank-you's and shout outs to those who have recently followed or favorited me or my story and to the following:

Basically Dauntless High would be about Tris and the gang in modern day high school, but I decided to turn it up a notch, adding action/suspense. Cue the story!

Ch.10

Previously on Dauntless High:

Jeanine wants to play, then so will I. Never in her life would she imagine her science students deceiving her. I chuckle quietly.

Goodbye Jeanine Matthews, Hello Mission Impossible.

Tris POV:

So here was the plan. Jeanine was going to be giving us the whole period to recreate a serum. It was a competition, you and a partner would compete against other groups. Four and I would partner up, and the others with their significant boyfriend/girlfriend.

Each group would remake a complex serum from a college textbook(courtesy of Caleb, who was fooled with the excuse of "wanting to study advance material"). Four and I would do a Bloodroot Serum- a serum that was as powerful as poison, Chris and Will would do Baruffio's Brain Elixir- which increases the taker's brain power.

Uriah and Marlene would do an Erumpent Serum- a highly explosive potion when it touches or touched by an outside source, and Zeke and Shauna would do Felix Felicis- a serum for liquid luck. (A/N: Sense the Harry Potter references?)

During class, I managed to slip the instructions for the Bloodroot Serum into my textbook. Jeanine finished explaining the requirements of the competition, and off we were.

Four got the ingredients, and I started to mix them together. Every once in a while, I couldn't help but notice that Jeanine's eyes were always watching me. Watching the ingredients start to blend with her radar-like eyes, scanning. Just a couple minutes before the period ended, our potions were successfully finished.

Jeanine went around inspecting and testing the serums. As she got to ours, her eyes lit up with desire. She tested the Bloodroot Serum on a rat, which died in a matter of minutes. Jeanine's mouth twisted to an evil, wanting smile.

"Very good, Ms. Prior, the Bloodroot Serum is very hard to make," Jeanine praises, slowly mixing the serum. "And you too, Mr. Four, I am amazed by your talents, which you must have acquired from you father, of course."

Four cringed at the comparison to his father. I caught his eye, nodding slowly. Slowly, Jeanine was walking into our trap. She continued to inspect the serums, especially drooling over the Felix Felicis, Zeke and Shauna made. Her eyes danced with conspiracy and want.

The bell rang. The students didn't bother to budge, anxious to find out who the winners of the competition were. Jeanine spread her arms out, her arms gesturing Four and I.

"Ms. Prior and ," Jeanine beamed evilly. The students groaned in disappointment, as they filed out of the room.

The gang and I were about to about to leave when Jeanine called Four's name. Before attending to the call, Four turned toward me, making eye contact. His eyes to seemed be nervous yet determined. I nodded, gesturing he should go. He sighs quietly, leaving the rest of us to leave.

I give him one last look before we leave. I wonder if Jeanine was going to propose that Four join the Erudites. I mean she did comment on his trait acquired by his father. There is a possibility that my plan to go into full throttle after today. Who knows?

Four POV:

As Tris and the gang leave, I retreat to Jeanine. I wonder what she wants. I was completely shocked about Jeanine creating a serum in our school. I recall the many nights Marcus would scream out me to go to bed, as he retreated to the basement. I would notice weird smells throughout the night.

I also had a hunch about Marcus' drinking habits. He never used to drink when my mom was alive. After she died, we moved and Marcus got a new job. And that's when he started to drink. Terribly. The basement was full of empty beer cans and wine bottles. After my mother died, I have a feeling that was when Marcus started working for Jeanine. I snap out of my thoughts, and return my attention to Jeanine.

"Ah… ,"Jeanine says. "You have been the top of our class-,"

"So has Tris," I interrupt.

"-and I want to recommend a certain program of mine," Jeanine says, irritated. "It, of course, is only for my best students."

I knew it. Its coming. Tris was right. The certain program. Only for my best students. She was asking me to join the Erudites. My blood boils. She wants me to join them, the traitors, the same conspiracy my fath-Marcus joined.

Keep calm, Tobias. Do it for Tris. I put on a fake smile.

"I would love to," I say through my gritted teeth. "What is this program, if I may ask?"

"The Erudites," Jeanine smiles sweetly. Bingo. Right on the dot.

"What do we do in this program?" I ask.

"Oh..the usual, make serums," Jeanine replies, want dancing in her eyes. "Only these serums are harder to make and are used for government purposes, only."

Haha..very funny Jeanine. Everyone knows, according to the article that Tris found, says that you hate the the government. You a lie.

"Oooh..sounds interesting," I say, obviously faking the enthusiasm. "When do I start?"

"Next week." Jeanine grins. I can see that look of a kid getting a new toy, in her eyes. She thinks her plan is working.

Jeanine dismisses me, and I leave to the cafeteria, laughing silently.

Tris POV:

I hated him for going. Its almost been 20 minutes into lunch and he still isn't here. I tap my fingernails on the lunch table, anxious. Zeke notices my behavior.

"Tris, relax..everything is going according to plan," Zeke says, reassuring me.

But I'm still anxious. I hope Jeanine isn't brain washing Four. Don't be stupid Tris! My brain scolds me. Of course Four can take care of himself.

I wear away time by working on my homework, one hand in my hair, the other holding my pencil. After what seems like a very long time, someone sets their books next to me. Four. He doesn't look too happy.

"What happened?" I ask. Four takes a deep breath.

"She asked me to join the Erudites," Four replies. "And I said yes."

"Wait to go Tris!" Christina praises. "Your plan is in full speed!"

Four and I stare into each others eyes for a long time. It really happened, she wanted him to join. He said yes. Once we all get in, we'll be unstoppable. I smile.

Four smiles back, grinning, his eyes seeming brighter.

"Hello?!" Uriah yells, with a piece of cake in his mouth. "I said STOP the PDA!"

Marlene whacks him with her binder. "It isn't PDA!" she retorts. Snapping out my daze, we all laugh.

~TIME SKIP~

When I get home from school, a new notification on my phone appears. A new email. I open it, curious. Its from Jeanine. About the Erudites, and asking me to join.

I throw my hands in the air, excited. YES! YES! YES! C'mon Jeanine! Only a couple steps closer into our trap. I call the gang, my head dizzying with excitement.

It turns out that they got an email too. Only we start after Christmas, and Four starts next week. It doesn't matter. We have the gang in and we have our inside man in. What could go wrong? This is perfect!

Project DTE is officially in action. Bye-bye Marcus, Bye-bye Erudites and Bye-bye Jeanine.

A/N: Woah! That was like a hose splashing water at your face. So Tris' plan worked (so far). Four actually pushed Marcus to the side and claimed the spot of the Erudites. Watch out for a conflict with Peter, Drew and Al! Hint, hint.

Um…what else? Oh! Anyone else crazy about the Stars Wars movie coming out? Super pumped!
