-Everett's POV-

I followed Althea, Camden and Rebel down to the pit with Conrad, after target practice was done, they had told us they were getting tattoos with some transfer kids and said we could tag along. I've wanted a tattoo ever since I can remember. Althea, Camden, Rebel and I used to spend most of our time there, watching members getting inked up. We had befriended Tori, Bud and eventually Six after her intiation. We neared the chasm rail, I saw the group of transfers we were suppose to be meeting. As we got closer, I saw the blonde Amity girl who had schooled Valentina in the cafeteria earlier on. I liked her already.

"Hey, was training?" Althea asked

"It was awesome," said the dark skinned Candor girl "I was the first one to make the knife stick!" Everyone laughed. Conrad and I stood awkwardly. We didn't know theese people.

"Oh," Said Rebel, as if she had forgotten we were here too. "Guys, this is Conrad and Everett, they're going to get tattos with us, Conrad and Everett, this is Johanna, Piper-Leigh, Jem and I'm sure you already know who Elodie is" Elodie flashed toothy grin at us. We shook hands with everyone as Rebel said their name, I couldn't help noticing Cobrad tripping over himself to shake Piper-Leigh's hand. He definatley liked her, even though he would deny it when I asked. I shook hands with her friend, Johanna and as we made eye contact, I couldn't stop staring into them. They were dark brown- almost black, but they shone too, like stars. They were beautiful. She raised an eyebrow, and I realised I had been staring to long. I drew my hand back like she burnt. and coughed awkwardly. I knew I was blushing.

"Shall we go?" Conrad asked, we nodded and surged toward the tattoo shop. Inside, was Tori and Six, I suppose it was Bud's day to work. Tori looked up from the magazine she ws reading.

"Hey kids, what can I do for you?" She asked.

"Can we look at the tattoo books?" Piper-Leigh asked. Tori nodded and got down the leather bound books from a shelf. I flipped through them, I wanted something that made me looked tough. I was nearly at the end of the book when I found the perfect tattoo. I pointed it out to Six.

"This is one please" I said. Six smiled.

"That's a good one, its a rune from an ancient people who inhabitited the world called Shaddowhunters, they're long extinct though. That particular mark means fearless." She said, setting up the ink machine. I liked this rune. It was intricate, yet simple. I hade the tatto on my forearm. Johanna went next, getting another ancient rune, only her's meant fortitude. She got hers on her forearm too. Eventually, we were all done. Piper-Leigh got a snake, coiling around her wrist; he said its because she's scared of snakes, bt if she has one that is wrapped around her wrist, she'll learn to get over it. Conrad got the Dauntless seal on his shoulder, Althea got it on her ankle. Rebel got all five faction signs going up her leg, Camden got a tiger, her favourite animal, on her shoulder blade, Jem got a dragon, because "Dragons are cool" and Elodie got another rune, this one meant courage in combat. At that, I wondered if she planned to get into another fist fight with Valentina soon. we thanked Six for the tats and left.

"Hey, boys, we're going to take the girls for a Dauntless-style makeover, we'll see you at dinner" We waved them off as they went in the direction of the clothes shop. I wondered what they'll do to them. I guess I'll find out.

-Althea's POV-

This was going to be fun! I really want to dye someone's hair, God I love doing that. We assembled outside the entrance of the clothing store.

"Okay, so how should we do this?" Rebel asked.

"Why don't we have one person each to style?" Camden suggested, we all liked that so we agreed on it.

"Who gets who?" I asked, we thought a moment.

"Eenie Menie Minie Mo?" Rebel shrugged. I nodded, in the end, Camden got Elodie, Rebel got Piper-Leigh and I got Johanna. Brilliant, she was probably my favourite out of the three, not like I would say that to them. We broke off into our little teams. I guided Johanna over to the jeans and combat boots.

"So what kind of stuff do you like wearing?" I asked. Johanna looked around, considering her choices.

"I like high waisted jeans, combat boots, leather jackets and I suppose some dresses might be nice" She said. I smiled. Perfect. We have the same taste.

"Of course, lets get to shopping!" I said, starting to move arounf the shop.

"Oh, Althea, could you dye my hair after this, maybe? I'm really bored of my natural colour" she said nervously.

"Of course" I said, this was going to be fun.

-Conrad's POV-

I stood at the chasm rail for the second time today, Jem sat on in while Everett and I just leaned on it. The girls told us to meet them here before dinner, I could smell the hamburgers cooking and they weren't here yet. I was getting agitated like I always did when I was hungry. After a few more minutes waiting, I finally saw Althea's bright red barnet shining through a sea of black clad Dauntless. The three of them stood in front of us, I had a feeling they were concealing the others for a big reveal. I was right, because Althea cleared her throat and said

"Ladies and gentlemen, please put your hands together for the newly styled, Elodie, Piper-Leigh and Johanna!" They stepped apart and jaw hit the flaw. Piper-Leigh looked breath-taking. Her dark brown hair had been curled and it rested on her shoulders and highlited with hot pink. She was wearing skinny jeans that showed the curves of her legs, knee high biker boots and a tight button up blouse. I looked to Everett to see if he was seeing what I was seeing. I smirked to see he was checking Johanna out too.

-Everett's POV-

I couldn't believe my eyes. Before, I thought Johanna's eyes were pretty, but now, I realised, all of her was beautiful. Her hair was dyed the deep, dark purple of a plum, she had cut even choppier than it had orginally been, it really suited her. She was wearing a tight black tunic over skinny jeans and a pair of patent combat boots. Her eyes were lined with black, making them look glassy. When I finally managed to tear my eyes away from her, I noticed all three of them were made up like that. They all looked amazing. I decided that Althea, Camden and Rebel were witches that were gifted with beauty spells. Speaking of, Camden looked impatient.

"Well?" She asked.

"Wow" I breathed. Not exactly an answer to be proud of, but I was finding it hard to concentrate. At least Jem and Conrad agreed with me seeing as "Wow" was their only response too. The girls just laughed.

"C'mon dummies, lets eat" Chuckled Johanna, was she looking at me when she said that? I don't know, she was too busy linking arms with the others so I didn't get a good look. I really hope we both get in after intiation, that is when I will make my move.

-Jem's POV-

The guys and I followed the girls in a trance, while they had had been shopping, we had been playing basketball, and talking about what they would look post-makeover. None of us thought they'd look that good. I wish Rueben was here to see Elodie's transformation, he would've thought it really cool, but as of late, he had bee hanging around with the other intiates, the Erudite transfers Alex and Sophie and the Candor boy Corey. For some reason, Valentina was friendly with them, even though they were lowly transfers, probably because the Dauntless-Born boy she was sweet on, Dustin, was their friend. She mainly just spoke to her quiet friend Imara though. Thinking about Rueben made me think about Josh. I felt guilty, I hadn't given him a moments thought since the choosing. I was so upset that he choose to stay in Amity- we all were. I guess leaving the nest for some people is just to hard.

-Tobias's POV-

I sat with Tris, Christina and the others in the mess hall. I was reading the Erudite journal that was published weekly. I sighed. They were still attacking the Abnegation, this had been going to for two years now. When was it going to stop? I can't show Tris this. She may be Dauntless now, but no one insults her old faction and gets away with it. Knowing that the whole city was slowly getting turning on them would kill her. I saw the group of intiates that Christina's sister, what's her name? hung around with enter with her, including the blonde one that beat up one of my intiates. Not that I minded, I didn't particularly like that one. The way she stared at me creeped me out. Apparently Christina saw them too, because her face lit up and she waved her arm in the air and shouted.

"Joeeey! Come play with your big sister! And bring your friends" I smiled at Christina's eagerness to spend time with her family. You could tell that they had been close back in Candor and that she missed that bond. As Joey and her friends sat down she muttured through gritted teeth

"Have you ever heard of the concept of subtlety?" We all snorted, Christina just rolled her eyes.

"Johanna, darling, why be subtle when you're born to stand out!" She said theatrically.

"You see what I have to live with?" Will joked.

"At least you didn't have to put up with from birth" Johanna shot back. The whole table erupted into laughter. When we finally settled down, I turned to Elodie.

"So, you're the kid who beat up one of my intiates?" I said in my best instructor voice. She turned white and nodded meekly. I just shrugged.

"I don't like that one anyway, make sure you hit her harder next time, okay?" She looked confused. But nodded anyway. I supressed a smile. There was a moment of silence until Christina started tearing into her sister about her makeover, with Tris and Marlene joining her. I decided no one would mind if I zoned out for a while. So I did. When I finally came back round, Tris was snapping her fingers in front of my face and laughing. Everyone had long since left. She grabbed my wrist and brushed her thumb over my 4+6 tattoo.

"Come one, Tobias" She giggled "We've got fight lessons to plan!"
