As Eliza takes us to our room, he tells us a bit about what will be happening in the next few weeks.
"You will be training by yourselves for the next 2 weeks. Then you will be ranked. The top 5 ,or, 4 in your case, will move on to the mental preparedness part of the training. After that, you all will face your fear simulations. The top 10 initiates will move on to become a true dauntless. Questions?" Nobody moved. "Alrighty. I'll let you all get some sleep."
After he left, nobody moved. I think we were all thinking the same thing. Why do we have to hurt eachother in the 1st round of tests when we will all advance to the second round?
At least, that's what I was thinking.
A girl in the opposite corner of the room from me broke the silence.
"Well. This will be fun. You all know me. Right?" The girl said. I shook my head. "Well. You should." She said in a snooty voice.
"My name is Jessica. My dad is Eric. You had better know who that is."
I did know who that is. My dad hated him. Looks like I already have a rival here.
"I'm Lindsay." I told her. When she looked confused I said "Four's daughter." As soon as the words came out she looked smug. Or frightened? Or both?
The other two people exchanged looks as Jessica and I glared at eachother.
"Okay you two. Break it up," a short blonde haired kid in the room said.
"And who exactly are you?" Jessica asked as rudely as she could.
"Dean. Got a problem with it?" Dean replied.
"I totally agree with Dean." Said a brunette boy with green eyes "We all should just get along. It won't be the end of the world you know."
"What do you say Jessica?" I asked the glaring figure on the other side of the room.
"Heavens no! I won't let a bunch of sissies get in the way of me and my rightful place. First. So just... Stay out of my way." She told us while stalking out of the room.
"Is she supposed to-"
"No Lindsay," Dean replied. "But I guess it doesn't matter. Lets all get some sleep. It's been a long day."
"I couldn't agree more," said the brunette boy.
