Tris' POV
I walk into the training room, half regretting that I decided to come down. I sit down on the table as the initiates walk in. "Hurry up initiates" I shout from across the room. I get them set up on the knife throwing again. I watch as Norman lets everyone one of his knives slip and they drop short of the target. "What the hell was that?" I shout. They all stop, ever Tobias looks a little shocked at my anger.
"It just...slipped" Norman says.
"I know what it did, but why are they all slipping like that?" I shout getting louder "Get your act together or get out!" I scream. Then I hear him, Thomas. Of all people, Thomas.
"What is wrong with you today Six, you seem pretty hormonal" I turn round to see Thomas smirking looking cocky.
"I would stop now if I were you." Tobias comments. But he doesn't.
"Is Six on her period or something?" Thomas smirks. Tobias' fists clench, I can see the anger inside him.
"How very dare you!" he says before I can comment "Why the hell would you ask her that." He shouts.
"Four, calm down." I stand up and walk over to Thomas. I lead in close to his face "So what if I am? Is there an issue with that? I was fine this morning until you lot came in here this morning acting like you couldn't be bother" I say with a calmer voice. "Everyone take a break, if you come back in and show a lack of effort you will instantly be made factionless, do I make myself clear?" I say raising my voice.
"Yes" everyone says and they leave the room.
"What was that Tris?" Tobias says unlocking his locker and pulling out my bag.
"I don't know, I just lost it." I say. I take the bag from him and walk into the toilets. I sort myself out and walk back out of the bathroom. Tobias is stood with his foot up on the wall. "Everything okay?" he asks. I nod my head even though I can tell its not. I just don't think this is right but I don't know why. I don't tell him that of course. The initiates come back into the room and I sit down on a table and keep my mouth shut.
Tobias' POV
"Tomorrow you will be allowed the day off as the day after you will be starting the second phase of initiation. As you know we do not cut people from Dauntless unless we have to as part of the new rules. The second stage of initiation is overcoming you emotional fears. You will be placed under a serum and you will then face one fear a day. The simulation will stop either when you fight off the fear or you slow your heart rate enough so that the simulation stops on its own." I look around the crowd of initiates "You will now be paired up and you will go round trying to build your skill in different activities. Hazel and Milton go to the knife throwing to start with, Joannah and Marvin go to the punch bags, Mark and Thomas guns and Nickie and Norman fight square." I set them up on their skill building and then I walk over to Tris.
"How you feeling?" I ask. She looks me in the eye and says "honestly, I haven't been feeling right all day." I knew that really but I wanted to hear it from her. "Why not?" I ask. "I-I-I don't want to say here, later." She says.
When the initiates have gone round their skill building several times I send them off on free time. I walk over to Tris and I help her up and we go to our apartment. "Now, Tris. Tell me whats wrong." I say.
