Chapter 3
We return to the dorms later that night, stuffed from a huge welcoming banquet. We as transfers sat at one table, apparently there were dauntless born initiates but theyre doing something different so we're not training together at all. Thats a bit annoying because i would like to know who we're up against. I grab a bunk, sharing with Jace. He seems pretty nice, in fact they all do. Some are a bit rude but mostly their good. I go to the closet to where they supply clothes for us and find black trackpants and a loose singlet top. I quickly take my old shirt off and replace it with the singlet top.
"Oh stiff, showing some skin!" Annabeth taunts to my back.
"Whatever Annie." I yell back. Out of no where a fists collects my jaw from underneath. I stare at it shocked as it dawns on me that Annabeth punched me. I turn around and lunge for Annabeth, pinning her to the ground.
"What the hell was that for!"
"Do not call me Annie."
Somehow she flips us over so shes leaning over me. She reaches to slap my cheek again but i regain control of her hands and shove her off me by pushing her shoulder. I quickly stand up as she rolls onto her feet ready for a fight. She lunges at me but I just dodge the pathetic attempt and step to the side before grabbing her around the waist and pulling her into a headlock.
"Do not pick fights you cant finish. Annie."
As i go to let go i feel an elbow connect with my stomach. I let go, groaning and clutching my stomach. "Save it for the ring, Jackson." she retorts, walking away to get into bed. I walk back over to my bunk and pull the blankets back angrily, jumping under the covers and pulling them over my chest. Jace leans down from above, "Ohh tough luck man, we all know im going to win her over."
I laugh and hit him in the head with my pillow. "You wish goldilocks." I can feel his laughter vibrating through the bed as i roll over and fall into a dreamless sleep.

Jace POV
I wake up to Eric yelling at us to get ready and go have breakfast. I groggily climb out of bed trying to shake the sleep out of my eyes and pull a black hoodie over my bear chest. I find a pair of black jeans and chuck them on, running a hand through my hair. I turn back to put my trackies on my bed only to find Percy still sound asleep on the bottom bunk. I poke him softly."Dude wake up."
"Now."
"We have to go."
I continue poking him. "They have pancakes."
I see an eye slowly poking open at that. "Well i guess we cant leave them waiting." I grin as he jumps out of bed and get changed at lightning speed, all of a sudden ready to go to breakfast. I look at him with an arched eyebrow.
"Do you remember how to get there?"
He turns to me, seriously and says "They have pancakes, we should be able to smell it out." I laugh before realising that he was serious; he puts his head in the air and begins to smell out the 'pancakes'. i hope they really do have pancakes.
We begin walking down a random hallway just as I hear running footsteps and turn to find Stanley running towards us. He catches up and we walk to the pit laughing along the way. After we finally make it to the pit we find Eric sitting at out initiate table talking us through the day. He glares at us as we sit down with plates full of pancakes.
"Initiates, i was just saying that lateness isnt tolerated and if it is made into a habit, the chasm hasnt had people hung from its railing in quite a while, so i suggest you watch yourself." I hastily nod and turn to gulp down more pancakes.
"As i was saying, training starts today. Today you will learn basic fighting skills with 4 & 6. They will be your trainers from now on. Listen to them and they will hopefully provide guidence for you." He gestured to a guy sitting a few tables away whispering to a small blond girl. They notice him staring and walk over to our table. "Im 4, and this is 6." He says, motioning to the chick beside him. "Training room in 10 minutes or Factionless. Go."
