I added a paragraph to the last chapter. I hope you guys won't be upset that I sped up the time towards initiation. I tried to write the days in between but I got writers block. I have lots of interesting ideas for this years initiates. Please read and review. :)

Chapter 23

Tris POV

The past 10 months have been a bunch of repeats. I wake up kiss Tobias. Go for breakfast. Kiss Tobias. Go to work. Tori has taught me some tattoo designs, but I prefer to organize and clean the place. I get off of work at lunch and go to the training room with Tobias to practice. The most dramatic thing that's happened is Peter throwing glances at me in the pit. Nothing ever happens though. He is in training to become a leader. Just two more days before the initiates come. I hope Peter will leave Tobias and I to the initiates and won't intervene like he usually does.

I've visited Caleb in Erudite. He seems really happy, and my mother said she misses us but is happy we're happy. I told her about Tobias. Well, I told her about Four. Tobias is a part of him that only I can know.

I volunteered to administer the aptitude tests. Tobias said it was a bad idea but I want to save as many divergents as possible. Give them the chance Tori gave me. The only problem is that is they find out I saved a divergent, then I could be the one in trouble.

My thoughts are interrupted as an Amity transfer walks in. It's strange that I didn't get an Abnegation, but I guess there's not too many of them. "Take a seat," I tell him. He's tall. He looks really muscular for someone in Amity. He seems really closed off. His hair is dirty blond and falls over his eyes. He is tanned, kind of like Tobias. Unlike the other Amity, he doesn't talk.

"My name's Six, I'll be administering your aptitude today."

I hand him the blue drink. I notice how he doesn't make eye contact. He stares at the drink.

"Drink it," I tell him as I set up the simulation. He tilts his head back and I see his Adam's apple bob as he drinks the blue syrup.

"What's going to happen?" He asks so quietly I can barely hear him.

"I can't tell you that," I tell him.

"Well what do I do?" He asks unsure of himself. It's hard to believe he's Amity.

"Just be brave," I say before his eyes close and the simulation begins.

He appears in the simulation room. Everything is gone, even the mirrors. He walks around with his hands in his pockets. "Choose!" The voice yells viciously. It's strange in my simulation it didn't get that aggressive. I smile a little at how hard he whips his body around. He narrows his eyes at the cheese and the knife. He stops at the knife and stays frozen. "Choose!" The voice says. This time he doesn't flinch. He just stares at the knife.

I hear growling and he turns around to face a wolf. Why is it a wolf? It shows it's teeth and starts to pounce towards him. He holds the wolf down with his arms. It looks like he's going to strangle it. The wolf crus out and the boy backs away. He seems really scared of hurting it.

The wolf gets up and keeps his head low. They are both scared of each other. The wolf lifts its head and the boy looks over his shoulder to see what it's staring at. A woman. His face says shock. The wolf starts to run towards her and he reacts instantly.

I already know what's going to happen. He's divergent. I reroute the program to the bus. Tori showed me how. She knew why I wanted to administer the tests. I didn't even have to ask her how.

He walks on to the bus and he sees the sacred man. His body freezes more than when he saw the knife. Except the scared man isn't scared anymore. The man has the same features of the boy. "Dean," he says like the name is sour.

The boy, Dean, shoots up in the chair. How is that possible? I didn't close the sim…he has fear in his eyes. "What was the point of that?" He asks tense.

"You shouldn't be able to do that," I say surprised.

"Do what?" He asks looking down at the floor.

"Your results are inconclusive." I pause for a second. "divergent."

"Is this a joke?" He asks.

"I'm going to enter your results as Amity," I tell him. "You can only tell people you got Amity. You can never… ever tell anyone about what just happened in your simulation. Got it?"

"Wait," he says. He wipes his face as if they're tears. "Can you put in Dauntless? I'll just tell people I took the knife."

"You won't be safe there," I tell him.

"It's my only option," he says. I want him to elaborate on that but before I can ask him he walks out of the room. It takes me a second to get back into my 'Six mode'. Sometimes I hate the Abnegation part of me. That part that worries about others well-being more than my own.

When I get into the apartment Tobias is sleeping on the couch. "Tobias," I say as I take off my shoes. He doesn't wake up. "Toby," I say again. I kiss him gently and soon enough he's kissing back. "I found a divergent."

"Which faction?" He asks seriously.

"Amity, but they seem determined to make it to Dauntless," I tell him.

"He won't be safe here," Tobias says.

"I told him that, but he's determined. He'll rank well if he's not caught."

"Look at you, 'Six'" he says trying to brighten the conversation. I didn't even know I was pacing. I laugh sarcastically but afterwards it comes naturally. I lean over and kiss Tobias on the cheek. I go to stand up straight again but Tobias has his fingers wrapped around my belt loops. "Tobias," I say laughing. He pulls me closer to the couch and I flip my leg over him so I'm straddling him to the couch. I kiss him passionately. I want to remember these moments because when the initiates come tomorrow we have to be just Four and Six, not Tobias and Tris.
