OKAY I PROMISED. SEE? :D
Haha i told you! Sorry for the delay, but I've just been really busy and i've had a lot of stuff going on, last few weeks i haven't been really happy and then everything i write comes out crap so hope you like this since it's not my best work but i promised you that i would update this weekend so :)
it's short i know :(
A few days go by with the initiates and I have noticed Hope is getting friends with the Dauntless born. Though in training she often stays apart of the other transfers. I can't really blame her, they are all pretty mean. Only Priscilla will talk to her sometimes but she keeps het distance since she doesn't want to get picked on by the others.
She will only have to deal with them a few more days, then the fear landscapes begin and they are all mixed. Today they will be fighting each other. They have been practicing on the punching bags and we Tobias and I are pairing them up now.
There are six transfers this year, so it's easy pairing. Once we are done the initiates come in and see the mats in the middle of the room.
"Okay listen up!" Tobias shouts.
"You will be fighting each other today. Since there's only six of you, everyone will go twice today, unless you can't fight anymore." I add and Tobias nods.
"Lucas will be fighting Jace." I try to hide my smile. We did that on purpose, Jace showed he can really throw a few good punches and Lucas just sucks so we wanted to wipe that arrogant smile off his face.
"Hope will fight Priscilla." I say, since they are similar in body type so they both make an equal chance.
"And that leaves Chloe with Greg." Tobias points his head to the mats.
"Lucas and Jace, go ahead." They walk up and get into position. After a few minutes, Lucas is down with probably a broken nose.
"Told you, you need to work on blocking you face. Go see Will and come back after lunch." I wave him off and nod approving to Jace.
Just when Hope walks up to the center I whisper. "Go low." And pat her on the shoulder. She looks confused for a second but then she understands. They start of and both throw a few good punches in but Priscilla is not as flexible as Hope, so when she goes in for a kick, Hope jumps down, leaps under Priscilla's leg and knocks her over. She jams her knee in Priscilla's stomach and she coughs up a little blood.
"That's it, thank you. Priscilla, please go after Lucas." Tobias nods and I smile at Hope, she smiles bright and wipes her red hair out of her face.
Last to go before lunch are Chloe and Greg. They last the longest but Chloe wipes Greg down with ease and kicks his side when he tries to get up. They don't really get badly injured so we go to lunch. Lucas is already there but Priscilla is just coming in. She doesn't look to good.
After lunch Will tells me Priscilla shouldn't be fighting anymore today and I nod. While we get back to the training room I take Tobias apart.
"I think we should let Hope fight Lucas. It would damage his ego and she can totally take him." I say and glance over at the six of them. Hope stands a few feet apart from the rest, as usual. Tobias nods and I walk over to them.
"Priscilla can't fight today so we will shift the rest of you. Greg, you also won't fight anymore. Don't worry, you did very well before lunch." I say and Tobias stands next to me, resting his long, narrow fingers on my hip.
"Chloe will fight Jace first, then Hope will take on Lucas." There is laughter from the group and I broaden my shoulders, walking up to Lucas. Even though I'm small, he looks stunned.
"What's so funny Lucas? Afraid you'll lose to a girl?" I ask in a dangerous instructor voice, placing my hands on my hips so I look even broader. Tobias gets behind me and now Lucas scuffles back. I laugh at him.
"Look Four, he's afraid of you." Tobias laughs with me.
"You should show him he should be more afraid of you, but we want to keep him in one piece, don't we?" I nod and grin evilly.
"Now, Chloe, Jace, will you?" they walk up and Jace knocks out Chloe pretty fast but he's much bigger that Chloe so we send her to the infirmary.
"Well? What are you waiting for pansycake?" I shout at Lucas when I see Hope is already on the mats. She wants to get this over with. I can't blame her, but she shouldn't be afraid.
"Okay go!" I say and step a little closer, Hope needs my support here. Lucas throws in a desperate punch but she easily avoids him. She goes in for a kick but Lucas grabs her leg and pulls her down. Her eyes shift to me and my hands make a rolling-over sing. She nods and when his leg comes down to her stomach she turns around and instead of jumping up she grabs his leg instead, pulling him to the ground too.
Now she jumps up and just stars beating the crap out of him. Tobias and I look at each other, both knowing we should take them apart but we don't. We let her get a few good punches and kicks in before Tobias shouts.
"Okay that's it! Hope, leave him in one piece, you'll have plenty of opportunities to kick his butt again." He grins a little and I pat Hope on the back.
"Good job. You are all dismissed for today." I say and look back on Lucas, still laying on the ground, moaning and cursing.
