I entered the large room, around me there were five sections of benches, at the bottom in the middle there were five bowls with different contents.
"Take a seat quickly," I am the last one to arrive, "My name is Marcus, I am one of the officials of the city." I move from the doorway and quickly sit down next to Four. I see his hand in Tris' who is on the other side of him. I feel like I have been punched in the stomach.
"You are here today to choose which faction you will be in. Well… without further ado let's begin." Marcus said, "Will Schuester, please choose."
Mr Schue gets up and approaches the bowl, he takes a small knife from Marcus and slices into his hand, he then squeezes his blood into the Dauntless bowl which contains coals. Brittany, Puck, Santana, Mercedes, Kurt, Finn and Quinn choose Amity, Dauntless, Candor, Candor, Erudite, Amity and Dauntless respectively. Then it's my turn. I walk down the steps, my heart pounding like a drum. I reach for the knife in Marcus' hand. I slice through my hand like paper and put the knife down. I look in all the bowls; glass, water, soil, stones, coals. I sigh before holding my hand over the Dauntless coals, I've been brave enough to get this far and I guess I will need to continue with my fearlessness.
Everything passes in a blur; walking out of the building, waiting for the train, jumping on the moving train, getting to the building, jumping off onto the roof. Someone grabbing my arm as I land in a heap on the roof of the Dauntless compound wakes me up from the blur. I look up to see Four looking down at me; from this angle he looks so handsome. He pulls me to my feet and at the same time as bringing me round to my senses he takes them away. Just like when I first met Finn.
"Right," Says a voice, "Only four initiates! What has this world come to? Anyway, my name is Eric and I'm a Dauntless leader, the next step of Dauntless initiation is to enter the compound."
"Enter the compound. How hard can it be to enter a building?" Puck says.
"You can go first then," Eric stares at Puck blankly, the piercings in his eyebrow shining in the afternoon light. He pushes Puck forward towards a wall. Puck climbs on to it and looks down before he can move a muscle Eric pushes him.
"Who's next?" he grins at Quinn, "How about you gorgeous?" He puts an arm around Quinn and walks her toward the wall, "So, are you single?" Quinn pulls herself on to the wall and jumps before she gets anymore hassle from Eric. Tris, Four and Mr Schue follow her before he turns around.
"You," He looks at me, "Jump." I walk to the wall and stand on it. Looking down I can see a large hole several stories down, it makes me shiver just looking at it.
"Sometime today would be nice!"
I close my eyes and take a step forward; I can feel the wind rushing upwards against me, pushing my hair everywhere. I feel safe when I hit a net at the bottom finally opening my eyes to see Four reaching for me to pull me to solid ground. He smiles as he grabs my arm to steady me. Oh my gosh! I hope he didn't feel me quiver then.
"You okay?" He asks with a look of concern. He gets more and more handsome every time I see him.
"Handsome... I mean hot… fine!" I stumble over my words. He grins. Then follows an awkward silence.
"Four?" asks Tris, making the both of us jump, "What's going on here?" We had been staring into each other's eyes for way too long.
"Nothing. Nothing at all," Four replies, then walks away; before Tris follows him she gives me a hard, cold look.
"Initiates, follow me!" Tris calls, she sounds kind of angry.
