TRIGGER WARNING!

The start of this chapter has a Trigger Warning, I will place where the warning ends so those that do not want to read it will be able to skip and be caught up in the next chapter.

People getting shot repeatedly with something similar to rubber bullets and Sadistic elements. Please read with caution.

A summary of the events will be placed at the start of the next chapter.

Summary of previous events

During the previous chapter Tris wanted to get some extra practice with guns, she soon found that even being Divergent she still required a trainer to hire the guns out for her. Just her luck Eric turns up and hires a gun out for her along with some Lampoon rounds (Special non-lethal rounds made by Erudite to help the Dauntless with training initiates, they leave only bruises.) Eric and Tris proceed to the training hall and Eric makes her disassemble and reassemble her gun repetitively until he is happy with her speed.

After that he helps her with target practice - using a heavier and louder gun than she is use to - quickly he notices that she flinches everytime the gun goes off so she then becomes the target herself (remember these are non lethal rounds) until she is no longer flinching from the sounds.

By this time the rest of the initiates are on their way, so Eric decides to do an impromptu training session where he teaches the initiates about loyalty and following orders. He makes them stand and watch as Eric tells Peter to shoot next to Tris, threatening him that he will take her place if he shoots her.

Tris didn't flinch as the shot rang in her ears and it hit the target way off to her left. The smell of gunpowder filled her nose. The asshole had used a real bullet, making her grit her teeth.

"Good, who's next?" He seemed to ponder, then he yelled, "Christina!"

Tris could hear the arrogance in his voice as well as the sharp intake of Christina's breath.

"Now initiate." He commanded impatiently.

She heard Christina's steps quicken as she walked up to Eric.

"Now my dear, this time I want you….. to shoot her."

"I, I can't." She stammered.

"Are you defying a direct order from your leader?" Eric feigned shock.

She must have shaken her head.

"Shoot her!" Eric yelled.

Tris heard the bang of the gun, heard the bullet hit the target to her right, but felt nothing and smelled nothing. He'd replaced it with Lampoon rounds again.

Tris smiled at Christina "It's okay Chris." She reassured her.

"If it makes you feel any better you can shoot her in the shoulder, but if you miss again I will not only shoot her but I will also shoot you." Eric growled, voice low.

Tris heard nothing but Christina chanting "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Over and over again.

"NOW!" Eric yelled.

She heard the gunfire again and felt the pain rip through her shoulder, rocking her body to the side as she fell. It's only a dull ache and there's no smell of gunpowder or that metallic smell that came from blood, letting Tris know it was only a Lampoon round.

She heard Christina scream and what sounded like her dropping to her knees.

Tris would have tried to sit up and reassure her but lying on the cool floor felt nice on her aching body.

"Get up, initiate." Eric growled.

"I shot her, I shot her, Oh god Tris I'm so sorry."

"They aren't lethal rounds, she's fine." Eric said arrogantly. "Aren't you Tris."

Tris didn't move a muscle, not that she could even if she wanted to, her whole body was just one large mass of pain.

"Tris?" Eric called out again, this time with a little panic in his voice.

If she hadn't just spent the morning with him she might not have noticed the slight change.

She heard a rush of steps and someone's hand on her shoulder turning her over.

Tris groaned in pain.

Eric removed the handcuffs and the moment her hands were free she punched him as hard as she could, sending him colliding with the floor. "That Fucking Hurt." She yelled, ripping off the blindfold.

"Me-ow the Stiff has claws." Peter mocked.

Tris turned her attention to him, shooting him a glare and he just continued to smirk.

"Shut up Peter." Uriah said from the other side of the crowd.

Peter just rolled his eyes.

Tris looked down at Eric who was still on the floor, staring at nothing looking stunned. She tapped his foot with hers and offered him her hand.

Eric took it and snapped out of his daze the moment he was up. "Dauntless born, get out of here. Transfers get over there and start target practice." He snarled. "And you," He pointed at Tris, "Get out of here and rest."

You don't need to tell Tris twice. She stopped in front of Christina, her face was stained with tears. Tris smiled and reassured her by giving her a quick hug. "It's okay, they weren't live rounds." She told her before leaving.

End of this chapters Trigger Warning!

The hot water ran over Tris' aching body, every muscle slowly relaxing into the warmth. She stayed under the water till her skin was red from the heat before turning it off and drying herself. She opted for a lightweight tank top, a pair of shorts and Four's jacket. It's a bit more revealing than what she would normally like but she didn't really want anything constricting on her bruised body at the moment.

Nodding at herself in the mirror Tris left for the mess hall. She hadn't eaten since her early morning snack because some asshole made her skip breakfast.

Entering the mess hall she found it mostly empty, bar a few late stragglers here and there. Breakfast was already wrapped up but the snack bar was always open. Tris made her way over there and grabbed a muffin and made myself a coffee before taking a seat at one of the tables. She wouldn't admit it out loud but she had become addicted to the amazing taste of coffee.

"Good morning Tris, how are you adjusting to Dauntless life?" Came Max's cheerful voice as he approached her taking a seat at the table with her.

"Fine thank you." Tris replied.

"And your training, how's that going?"

"Good."

"Good, good. How are you coming along with your firearms? Isn't that where you're meant to be at the moment?"

"Better now that Eric helped me out with some gun training this morning." Tris didn't mention the 'target practice' but she knew he could see the bruises that covered her body.

"Good to hear." Max beamed. "While I've got you, I would like to make good on one of my offers from the ceremony and get you a personal trainer."

"I really don't think….." Tris started.

"Nonsense," Max cut her off, "Now, this is an access card." He placed a purple swipe card on the table. "It will grant you access to a private special members gym and I will personally schedule you a personal trainer." Tris tried to reject his offer but he cut her off again with a hand wave.

Tris inwardly grumbled, fine, if he wouldn't let her reject it, she would at least use it to her advantage. Turning a smile towards Max she placed her hand on the card. "I'll take your offer, as long as my condition is met."

Max eyed her before nodding.

"My friends can come with me."

He thought about it for a moment, his eyes never leaving hers as if he was trying to make her back down and just take the card, but after the morning she'd had she was not in the mood to back down.

Max took a deep breath and let it out, "Fine, but they can only go when you go and no one else can come."

"Done." Tris grinned, taking the card and placing it in Four's jacket.

Max nodded at her and got up to leave. "Did Four show you the members gym on your tour?"

Tris nodded.

"Good, should you require anything else to help with your training, don't hesitate to ask."

"Thank you."

Max left just as Will, Al and Christina made it over to the table.

"What was that about?" Christina asked.

Tris smirked at them, "How would you like to come to the members only gym with me later?" She said holding up the purple swipe card.

Well, what did we all think?
