Author's note: It is a slow-update. Bear with me.

Eric Coulter. Erudite Transfer. He has finished the Dauntless initiation and came as the 2nd rank. I know about him after my father decides to train him to be a leader. He said the boy has so many potentials. He is so proud of him like he is his own son. That's good to hear that because I have no interest in spending my life fighting and wrestling inside the Pit.

I spend the most of my time inside the intelligent office, ensuring internal security within Dauntless and other faction, managing training and patrol schedule. I try to avoid all the bloody causes. It is not because I am weak, but I prefer not to.

What I like the most about being in the intelligence is a chance to visit other faction. Amity stuns me the most with their green fields, trees and harmonious living. Dauntless likes to make fun of what Amity does, they say they contribute nothing but to harvest crops. But I say Amity is the most important faction after all. They produce staples for all factions, even to the factionless. They are proof that nature sustains our living.

Although, I wouldn't say that out loud to other Dauntless. They may think that I am crazy. Raised and born in Dauntless, I should believe that Dauntless is the best faction so far. We are made of strong men and women who will battle the danger in the front line. We are heroes, and everybody needs a hero.

Margo and I are on duty today to pick up crops from Amity farms. The rumbles of our trucks always come as a shock to the peaceful neighbourhood of Amity. Some farmers are reluctant to come near to us, because of our weapons and armor.

"We come in peace!" I yell at them, like that's helping. They all stand in silence. Then, slowly the farmers walk closers and bring the sack of staples into our trucks. The sacks come in different colors to identify the division of the food. Blue for Erudite, Black for Candor, Grey for Abnegation and Red for Dauntless. Amongst all faction, we receive the most food and staples, simply because we are soldiers. We train hard everyday and we need energy.

The Dauntless start to help the farmer to move the sack into the trucks. A little girl who share height with my chest approaches me with heavy sack on her shoulders. I help her before she is struggling any longer.

"You are drenched." I notice her wet auburn hair and yellow dress. "You are going to catch cold. What were you doing?"

That moment, I probably am the most approachable Dauntless to her. She beams a smile. "I've just finished swimming."

"Where?"

"There. At the lake." She points to a confused aim. But it is the northwest, close to the wall borders between Dauntless and Amity.

"That is a forbidden area. You must never go there." I say with a stern voice, and I mean it. The girl curls her head, feeling frightened, she moves away from me. My chest feels heavy. This is why I do not like Dauntless, people thinks I am mean. But I do what I have to do.

I decide to come home alone with train. Margo insists if I should ride the tank with her and other soldiers. I say, that I would like to do some patrol. I am also curious about the existence of the lake.

"Look, what I've got." She shows me an amber tube of Amity Serum. Her addiction.

"I am not in the mood," I reject gently. Although should say, that getting high all the time is a stupid idea. "I would like to do some patrol."

The truth is, I am looking for the lake and train is the best way to explore all factions.

Five minutes above the train, I find it. The crystal reflection shimmers in front of my eyes, I jump while the train is still on the move and curls myself into a smooth landing. The long grass picks on my back and I find myself standing in front of the lake. I have never seen anything like that before. Nature so naked and the air is calm. I step further, my weapon is still slipped behind my waistband.

I am alone. I take off my jacket and let the skin of my forearm inhale the crisps fresh air. I feel it inside my lungs too. It moves me to take everything off of my body. I am left alone, naked and I jump into the lake. My hair flows into the direction of the water. I move my limbs, it feels awkward at first. In Dauntless, pools are rare, especially a natural one like this. I have never felt the serenity like this. In my faction, I live amongst the yelling and the shouting and the mind-boggling discipline we all have to follow.

There comes the sound of a tiny explosion from behind, I flip my body and I see a bullet spiralling towards me. It does not land and hit any part of my body and face, but it sends me to an alert. So, I jump onto the surface and search for the one who releases the bullet. He does not stand far. Copper short hair, facial piercing and neck tattos. There are several ones covering his muscular arms.

"Susan, what are you doing here?" Eric shouts.

"What are you doing here? Did you realize that you almost shot me?" I climb out of the water, unaware of my body is uncovered but only by the glistening coat of the water. Eric still looks at me, right in the eye, as if his sight is limited to my face.

"It was a warning shot. I did not mean to harm and I have the patrolling authority here. What are you doing here, soldier?" he gives me a threatening look, and I am supposed to feel scared.

"Alright. You have only passed the initiation a week ago. Do not think you can speak to me like that, soldier."

Then comes the dead silence, I am only aware of my nudity. I cover my breasts with my arms and I tuck in my legs to block my private part. Though, I know everything is a waste. I run across the field to get dressed.

"You are one fierce young lady." he says as he approaches me. "Let me take you home."

"Save it, Eric. I better wait for the train."

"Don't flatter yourself, I plan to give my patrol report to your father. Besides, there will be no train."

I tight the last button on my jacket before I leave him. "I'd better walk."

I know that will not be the last time I visit the lake.
