Chapter 4
Tris POV
Today is my first day back to training. It has been a week and a half. Tobias doesn't know I'm coming. I help myself but go back to work. I can't It has been kind of boring not working. Tyler has been a really calm baby, but he has the unique personality. It is mostly made-up of Tobias's character with my stubbornness. I sure hope I am doing this parenting thing right. As I walk in the training room late with Ty is his carrier, I hear the first fights going on. Some type of old rap music from the 2010s is playing the background. Curse words are flying out their mouth by the seconds. Yep, I think to myself, Tobias and I are not the best parents.
The dauntless borns have one fighting ring and the transfers have the other one. Tobias is too busy concentrating on a tall boy punching the other boy unconscious to notice me walk in. I pull up a chair behind Tobias and sit down. Right then Ty starts whimpering so I pick him up and cradle him in arms. Good thing the music is loud or else Tobias would have notice me come in. The initiates don't know I've had a baby. They don't even know that Tobias and I are dating. We have to be very secretive about it.
After the fight is over, two boys named Andrew and Michael pull the unconscious being out of the ring. I no longer feel any sympathy for the transfers or bad fights. Too many blood battles happen around Dauntless for me to care about a single fight. I see on the chalk board that Elli and Tanya are up next. Before Tobias announces it, I state it myself. Tobias looks shocked and mad that I am hear. The initiates' reactions to Ty in my arms is priceless. Most of them look petrified while others look at Ty with bright eyes and smiles.
With a serious face and an annoyed voice I repeat, "I said, Elli and Tanya, you're up for the ring." Those with smiles slowly form a somewhat normal expressions. While Elli and Tanya get settled, I faintly hear one of the boy whisper to another girl that I'm just pissed because of my hormones. I get up quickly and hand Tobias the baby without question. I walk up to the boy and look him straight in the eye. "I'll let you in on a little secret. This attitude right now, yeah my hormone attitude, well, this is my normal personality," I say. As I slowly walk away, I hear the boy yell out, "Who would wanna knock you up with that attitude? You probably paid them."
I hear Tobias snicker in the corner and even hear Ty let out a sound. I turn back around and punch the boy in the face. "For your information, I am a married woman with a loving family, while in your case, you will end up with the factionless or on fence duty you jerk," I say to him. Rules are that I'm not allowed to cuss out another initiate. The boy look frightened and stunned by the fatal blow to his head. He will probably have a headache for the next week.
I walk back and grab Ty. At that moment, Chris pops her head through the door. "Quickly Tris! Come! You have called out for a meeting." "Bye Four," I say quickly and put Tyler in his carrier. I follow Chris through the compound and to the government offices. I am greeted by Eric. What a pleasant sight.
"Please sit down you two," Eric says while gesturing to two chairs. I sit down carefully in the chair. Same with Christina. Eric says, "As you guys may know, last year Erudite tried kill many Divergents and nearly destroyed Abnegation. Well, know we are faced with another problem of the same sort. Candor believes that some people in this compound are hiding some secrets. Dauntless and Candor have never had any conflicts prior to this whatsoever. So tomorrow some Candor leaders are here to test everyone with the truth serum privately. I am told they will be asking simple questions."
"Why the hell do we need to do that?!" Christina screams. Eric says, "Calm down sweet cheeks! I am not done…" He is cut off by Chris. "EW… don't call me that…just…EW!" "Whatever, just listen," Eric says, "This will become a yearly routine. Same for the other factions, including Candor themselves. This will help make sure there are no other war attempts. There is just one small problem. The initiates have to be tested. Tris and Christina. I need your help tomorrow getting the initiates ready for this test."
Ok, I think to myself. This should be a piece of Dauntless cake. What could go wrong?
A/N: I will try to get the next chapter up this week. I promise longer chapters like this one and even longer. This is where more internal conflicts come in. Again, please review, favorite and follow this story. Comment what you think will happen next chapter and your ideas. Until next time, goodbye my fellow initiates!
