Sorry everybody for not updating! I just realized I haven't updated in 45 days! A real apologies to everyone! I decided that to explain this, I really have to give away some personal information. So ket me start explaining. I am a sixteen year old girl from the state of North Dakota, USA. I am a young author, and I have written three books, one already published, and the other two are getting published in December 2014 and August 2016 respectively. The reason why I haven't been updating is because I am in University. I mean, I have just entered Uni. Yeah, go ahead and think I am lying, but I am not. I went for some IQ test, and it has proven that my intelligence is top 1% in the nation. (Like Erudite, but whatever)

In University, I have taken up 3 courses. One of them, Creative Writing. So you should know that I am actually writing three chapters in advance, so right now I am actually finishing chapter 17, but I will not disclose what happens there. I wrote Chapter 17 just today, using the new techniques I learnt from my course. Chapters 14-16 will still showcase my previous writing skills, which are not as good as it after I went for the course.

Now enough of my long writer's note. Anyway thanks for 6000 views! Now here's the chapter.

TOBIAS' POV

(Time Laspe: After Initiation)

What on Earth have I done? Why have I told Tris and her family that my mother, Evelyn, is alive?! But I guess it is for the best. After all, I want her to come back into the comfort of a faction, and I do know Marcus has six younger brothers, four of which are not married.

In Abnegation, if a male member of the faction has been removed or has left for an apparent reason or has died, and his wife is still alive, they will first look at that man's siblings. If that man's siblings are in the same faction, and they have not married, then that wife must marry the man, unless they really show a certain resentment for each other. Out of Marcus' four unmarried brothers, two are Abnegation. Evelyn should marry the elder one, Glynn.

I walk towards the results. I am very honoured to work with Tris, a Divergent with an aptitude for Erudite, as she can calculate results very well. All the people (who know) push the tedious work to her. (Except for Caleb, because he is smarter than her).

Renella? Fourth in the entire cohort of Dauntless initiates? Impossible! Even when I was an initiate, I ranked only eleventh in the entire cohort, and Eric was only fifth! I look at the people eliminated. Seven Dauntless borns, Seven Transfers. Fair enough.

Then I see Tris go to the announcement system of the Dauntless.

"Initiates of this year!" her voice booms from the speakers. "Meet at the place where you see your results everyday!"

All fifty-seven initiates, Dauntless born or Transfer, come to the place where they are supposed to meet. I weave to the front.

"Announcing the Top Five, in order of rank!" shouts Tris. "Jennie, Patrick, Donald, Renella, Justin!"

She smiles, then looks at me. I know from that twinkle in her eye that she's impressed that the Abnegation born can score so high during the first round.

"Announcing those that are now factionless, in order of rank!" shouts Tris. "Constance, Darren, Mickey, Richard, Bryan, Matthew, James, Mila, Edward, Elwira, Linda, Eric, Gloria and Frank!"

Just then, I see Eric march in. Since last year when Tris became a Dauntless leader, she implemented that the five factions finish their first round of initiation at the same time, except for Abnegation, as Abnegation only has one round, and Abnegation initiation does not make anybody factionless, but the Abnegation leader Marcus must be present.

The initiates follow Tris and I onto a bus. In 30 minutes, we reach Erudite, the host for this year's ceremony. Jeanine, Max, Jack, Johanna and Marcus stand in front.

"Those who know where they belong are those who own the future!" Jeanine shouts. The four other faction leaders repeat after her in unison, then the faction members repeat too.

"And only those who are the best shall inherit future too!" Jeanine says, leading to the process of repeating words repeat again.

"Now after the first round of initiation, there are those who are clearly not the best, and clearly will not own the future, and they shall choose their way of leaving the faction system! Let us begin this ceremony!" says Jeanine.

"From Abnegation?" Jeanine inquires Marcus. I know she only says this because she has to. After all, there may be Abnegation dropouts.

"Nobody," my father replies. His eyes catch my eyes. I look away.

"From Amity?" Jeanine inquires Johanna. "1 member," Johanna replies, walking onto stage, and passing Jeanine a piece of paper.

"Amity born Aceline from Amity! Factionless because of refusing to help harvest stuff!"

A female Amity member walks onto the stage. She looks terrified. "Aceline born of Amity who chose Amity, tell me your choice. Death, Factionless, or Amity maidservant for life?" Jeanine asks. The young girl pauses. I don't think she has thought of it yet.

"Factionless," Aceline finally says. A Dauntless guard takes her by the hand. Will. Will will drop her off at the factionless sector and see which of the factionless groups want to take her in. This time, Tris' curiosity got the better of her and she told Will to tell her each group that each factionless chooses. He agreed.

"From Candor?" Jeanine asks Jack. "3 members," says Jack, then passes Jeanine a paper.

"Erudite Born Candor Transfer Elizabeth Markson! Factionless because of lying!"

A female Candor girl comes towards Jeanine. "What's your choice?" Jeanine asks. "Death."

Jeanine nods to Eric. Eric has been hired as the official killer for factionless initiates who chose death. I close my eyes. When I reopen my eyes, Elizabeth is dead. Horrible.

"Dauntless born Candor Transfer Christiana Geera! Factionless because of lying!"

Christiana chooses to be a Candor maidservant for the rest of her life. Better than death.

"Erudite born Candor Transfer Doyle Camiz! Factionless because of lying!"

Doyle chooses death. No not again!

TRIS' POV

I get that Tobias has the same feeling as me. Not death. No, not death. Eric shields a mencaing glance on his face as his sword lashes down on the boy's neck. That is so horrible.

Next will be Dauntless. Max waits below the stage, at the steps. "From Dauntless?" says Jeanine. "14 members," says Max, and passes Jeanine the paper.

"Dauntless Born Dauntless Remainer Frank Kirshner!" Jeanine doesn't say the reason. I guess everybody knows. That boy chooses to be a Dauntless maidservant for life. "Dauntless Born Dauntless Remainer Gloria Dozier!" Gloria chooses to be factionless. Will takes her by the hand. "Dauntless Born Dauntless Renamer Eric Toland!" I look at Eric, the Dauntless leader, not the initiate. He looks angered. What a jerk.

Eric the initiate chooses to be a Dauntless maidservant. "Dauntless Born Dauntless Remainer Linda Garde!" Linda chooses to be factionless. Will leads her to the other initiates who chose to be factionless. "Candor Born Dauntless Transfer Elwira Stebbens!" Elwira chooses death. Eric kills her without sympathy. What a jerk.

I feel horrible after the ceremony, like literally wanting to vomit. Who doesn't after seeing so many deaths. Perhaps Eric. But Eric is heartless. And I'm not.

Tomorrow is the second stage of initiation. The day we'll find who's Divergent and who's not.

Don't memorize the rankings! Too troublesome! Unless you really want to... I would really appreciate if you could actually understand that I could not update for 45 days, I was too focused on the 3 courses that I am attending, and my Instagram account.

Now I won't leave my contacts, read the previous chapters to find out more. That is all, and bye! Working to finish Chapter 18 so I can post chapter 15 now!
