A/N I'm so sorry it took so long but I had to organize all the characters, make plans, and such. Also I had summer band and the I accidentally deleted my character sheet. But I finally got it done. This chapter mainly just introduces the initiates.
Disclaimer Veronica Roth owns divergent, C.S. Lewis owns Cor, Corrin, And Arivas, Annie Zoey and Lily are all real people so I can't own them, and the rest of the initiates belong to my wonderful readers. Even though I can kill them and make them date who I want to.
Tris POV
It was the first day of initiation, and Tobias and I had a lot to do. At six thirty I went to my office to make sure everything was ready for my assistant Jirel who was running my office while I was training initiates. After I had finished I went to help Tobias set up the training room.
"Hello love," Tobias said handing me a muffin.
"What do you think of this year's bunch?" I asked taking a bite of my muffin.
"I think we have a pretty good group this year. It doesn't look like we have any Peter or Erics."
"We did lose a lot already though."
"That's the problem with large groups it's a lot harder for everyone to get on and off the train. Especially the transfers," he said opening the door that held the guns.
"We do have the largest amount of abnigation and amity transfers than ever before. That has got to mean we have a good group," I said finishing my muffin and grabbed a stack of targets.
About thirty minutes later we finished up and the initiates started to trickle in. Once we had everyone Tobias started to pass out guns.
"Today you will be learning to shoot a gun. It is loaded with real bullets I hope you are awake because I would hate for some one to get hurt," Tobias said handing the gun to the last initiate.
We then taught them how to load and unload the guns, and how to take the safety off how to cock it etc.
"Now watch six as she shoots it," Tobias gestured to me. I took my gun and stood about twenty yards away from a target. I spread my feet turned the safety off, cocked it, took aim, and fired. Bullseye. I fired round after round hitting the bullseye every time until the magazine was empty.
"All right I hope you've been paying attention you don't get to go to lunch until you have hit a bullseye," Tobias said walking over to a table where we were able to watch the initiates and clean the rest of the guns at the same time. After they had all shot a couple of rounds and were starting to get comfortable with the gun I looked at the list I made so I could start assessing them.
Annie (amity) seemed pretty nice, but was constantly moving like a spring that had been held down for sixteen years and was suddenly loosened. Also for an amity transfer she was doing pretty well with a gun, or better then I had when I first started shooting.
Lily (candor) seemed to be getting along well with Annie. She was rather short. Shorter than I had been with medium length dark brown hair. It looked like she would be good with a gun if she didn't recoil from the kick.
Jesse (candor) was doing pretty average with the gun. He was 6'2 with medium length medium brown hair that's messy. Lean and somewhat muscular, looked like he would do well in fighting.
Caden (erudite) was really tall, with very long legs, so he was probably very fast. Small eyes and very thick lips. He looks kind of nerdy, which is expected of an erudite transfer. Between shots he was shouting out statistics very fast and very loudly.
Margaret (abnigation) or Maggie as she wanted to be called. She had brown hair and eyes. She seemed strong, but it was pretty obvious she doubted herself by the way she was shooting. If she had a bit more self confidence she would make a wonderful dauntless.
Emma (abnigation) was best friends with Maggie, which really makes sense them both being from abnigation. She had long brown hair and deep blue eyes, short with little muscle, like me when I was an initiate. She looked like sweet girl who would be a nice friend. She also seemed to doubt herself.
James (amity) was doing average with a gun. He has blonde hair and green eyes, tall and has small muscles. He also kept sneaking glances at Emma.
Adrianna (erudite) or Anna as she asked to be called. She had long black hair down to her waist, and sky blue eyes. She is tall, a bit lanky. She was doing good with a gun, and I added her to the mental list of people who would be good in paintball.
Arivas (Candor) had long curly black hair chocolate brown eyes and dusty skin. She had great aim, and seemed determined to do her best.
I looked over the whole group. Yes we had a great bunch this year.
Uriah POV
I loved initiation. It probably would have been more fun to be in charge of the transfers, but Tris beat me to it. Oh well. I was brought out of my thoughts by a noisy bunch of teenagers entering the training room.
"Okay let's get started," Lauren said, "give me ten laps around the compound."
"Ugh. Running? Do we get cake?" One of the initiates, Zoey asked.
"Not exactly, but you won't get lunch until your work out is done," I said in my instructor voice. They all groaned then started running. As I watched them run I started assessing them, and putting names with faces.
Zoey had medium length brown hair with red highlights. She was stocky and tall, and wore lots of necklaces. She was going to be a handful.
Alexandra or Alex as she wished to be called, was about 5'4 with dark brown hair and purple bangs, light brown eyes and olive skin. She not ugly but she not stunningly beautiful. She's in the middle; pretty, but not a plastic-no-flaws sort of pretty. I thought she would probably end up in the top five at the end of stage one, but not do so well in stage two. She also seemed really mean and sarcastic.
Aly was short with medium length brown hair and brown eyes tan skin. She didn't seem strong but didn't seem weak. From the way she seemed to joke around with the others while jogging it looked like she had the wit of an erudite, she also looked friendly and playful.
Christopher has light blonde hair and brights blue eyes. He looked Calm and collected, but yet a ladies man. He seemed to be working his charm on Aly by telling all of the facts of how gorgeous she is and how beatifiul she is on the inside.
Cor had blonde shaggy hair and bright blue eyes. He seemed like he would do well in the first stage, and probably acted before he thought.
Corrin was Cor's twin brother. I think Corrin was older but I'm not sure. They looked exactly the same, but had completely opposite personalities. Corrin looked like he would do better in the second stage then his brother.
Liz was about 5'5 with brown hair and natural highlights, and grey eyes. She was quiet and focused on doing the best she could. Either she really wanted lunch or she wanted to surpass everyone by a long shot.
I wasn't sure about the transfers, but I knew that Lauren and I had a good group of kids.
A/N well I hope you liked it. I'm talking suggestions for candor and dauntless so if you have any let me know. Any ideas or complaints tell me. Does any one have questions, comments, snide remarks?
