I don't know what I'm expecting when I get down to the Pit, but it's definitely not this. I do not know who else is coming back, or if this is just a dream within a dream. There had been so many things to happen in the past couple of days. Uriah, Tori, for god sakes, even me. And there is still no explanation. There is no reason, there is no knowing who is behind this. I can't leave this place because I'm under surveillance. I know that they're watching me. Whatever is on David's mind, whatever his plan is, he is going to break me apart. He is going to take everything away from me...more than he's already taken, and there's nothing I can do about it. He's onto me and that's why he sent me back. Punishing me, yes, that's fine, that's something I understand. But I don't know what he's doing with all of the people who have already died. They have already suffered, so what is the point for making them go through this again? Is it just to punish me? Is it to remind me who is really in charge? Because I know who's in charge now...and if I'm good at anything it's disrupting the status quo. But I have to do this quietly and I have to do things my way.

So Tobias and I enter the Pit, and our initiation class is surrounding the sparring mat where I can easily see Uriah fighting with someone. Not like a real fight, but something the group could learn from. Uriah was one of out best fighters from my initiation class. I can't tell from our distance if it's someone from the class or an active member of Dauntless. The closer we get I can tell that it's a female with a shaved head. And my heart stops beating in my chest. My feet are frozen to the floor and I can't move. I can't force myself to move. Tobias attempts to keep walking, but his hand is attached to mine and I yank him back with me. He looks at me and his eyebrows are furrowed in confusion. He's worried, nervous, and I don't blame him, I've been a bit crazy over the past couple of days. But that's not without reason.

"You okay?" he asks me.

I'm staring at the two fighting on the mat and I can't breathe. This doesn't make any sense to me. If they're all coming back...what's the point. What's the meaning to all of this. Why is this happening? Why are they back? I swallow and my grip tightens on Tobias' arm because I feel dizzy now. I feel like I'm going to collapse. My knees are weak because I don't actually understand what's happening. Part of me believes that this is really all just a simulation and I'm still locked up at the Bureau. This could all just be some sick experiment that David is placing on me because I have pure genes. Not only that but the fact that I tried to defy him. Everything that was happening was my fault. Things has snowballed after my decision to choose Dauntless. I feel like I've lost vision, it's blurred, dark, I can't make out faces, I can't make out voices. This is too much.

"Tris?"

I take a few moments to gather my thoughts, take a few breaths. I open my eyes and Tobias is hovering over me, his eyes hooded with worry. I swallow and nod. "I'm fine," I say, offering him a smile. "I'm sorry."

"Don't dot hat," he tells me, pulling me into a hug. "You had me worried."

I breathe in his scent and it calms me like it always has. "I'm sorry," I repeat. I pull away from him and look back toward the mat where the fight has ended and Uriah and Lynn are now walking toward us. I smile at her and throw my arms around her neck. Sure, we weren't that close before she died, but we were close enough that a hug was justified. A short one, though. She chuckles and looks me over when I pull away.

"You look good," she tells me.

I laugh. "Wow thank you," I say. "You too...considering I guess."

"Considering?" Tobias asks.

I look at him and shake my head, in a "not now" sort of way. I hope he understands, but this is definitely not something I want to talk about here. Too many innocent hears. Too many things that could be talked about and overheard. I couldn't take the chance that David would figure it out and do something to cause for trouble for me. He nods and I turn back to Lynn and Uriah.

"I don't know if Tori told you," I say to Uriah. "But we're meeting up tonight. To talk about things. If anyone else pops up...just bring them along."

"You think anyone else will come back?" Lynn sounds eager, excited and I know that she's talking about Marlene.

To be honest, I have no idea how far this is going to go back. how many people are going to start popping up. when it's going to stop. There's just too much to think about. And I can't let myself focus on it right now. Getting this class through their initiation is the most important thing right now. I remember what it felt like a year ago. I felt like I was in danger every day, and sure that was in most part due to Peter and his threats on my life. But this group of transfers...I wasn't going to let anything happen to them. this is supposed to be a better life for them.

I shake my head. "I'm not sure," I tell her. "It's been kind of intense the past couple of days. But we'll talk it out later. You two need to find something to do while we're training. Stay safe, busy. Have fun. You don't get to come back to life everyday."

They both give me a look and I shrug, smiling at them. "You're a nutcase, Tris," Lynn tells me.

"Oh yeah, she definitely knows that," Tobias says, with a grin.

I smack his arm and roll my eyes. "I'll see you guys tonight, okay?" I give another hug to Lynn and Uriah before stepping away and heading toward the group.

"Is she doing okay?" I hear Uriah ask Tobias, so I slow my pace so I can hear what they are saying about me.

I stop close enough away so that I can hear without being obvious that I'm listening. I glance back to see Tobias rubbing the back of his neck and turn just in time to see him stare at me, raising a brow. I turn away and bite my lower lip, pretending I'm paying attention to whatever the initiate is saying to me. Rude, I know, but when it's Tobias talking about me, I kind of have to know what he's saying.

"She's okay," he says. "Confused, but if I were in her shoes I'd be confused too."

At least it's the truth. I'm confused. I don't understand what's going on. But hopefully we can come to at least some type of understanding tonight. I trust Tori and if anyone can figure this out, I'm thinking it's her. I take a breath and look at the Candor transfer in front of me.

"Sorry, one more time," I tell him.

"What are we doing today?" he asks.

I purse my lips in thought and lift my shoulders in a shrug. "I'm thinking we'll work on your shooting. How's that sound?"

He grins. "Sounds great."

"Okay, good. Go wait with the others." I say before turning back around to Tobias.

He glances at me with a smirk. "Eavesdropping, we you?"

I shrug. "Can you blame me?"

He shakes his head. "No, not really."

"That's what I thought." I say, standing on my toes to press my lips to his cheek. "So...gun training sound good for today?"

He thinks about it for a second before nodding. "Sounds perfect."
