Chapter 16.

"Hello everybody." Zeke says and everyone goes quiet. "Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to Zeke's truth or dare game. Does everyone know how to play it?" We all nod at our gracious host "Good, now then. Who will do the honour of going first?"
"ME ME ME ME ME!" Shouts Uriah.
"Looks like Shauna wants to go first."
"Uriah, truth or dare?"
"Dare I am not a pansycake."
"I dare you to go and find Freda and tell her to come and join us." That can't be too bad but all of the blood rushes out from Uriah's face and he shoots up and gets rid of his shirt
"THERE IS NO WAY ON THE PLANET THAT I AM GOING TO GET THAT… THAT… THAT THING!" he shouts.
"Uriah? What is going on?"
"Uhhh… Well this afternoon when you and Four were gone, she uh… she…" He mumbles the next few words. "Tried to kiss me…" I look astonished. Freda is the ugliest girl ever. She is very fat, wears overly tight and short shorts and skimpy tops. Tobias looks at me and then we both start laughing. "Marlene, truth or dare?"
"Dare because unlike you, I am not a pansycake!"
"Ok let me go and get the props you will need. Come with me." Me and Tobias look at each other confused and then when Marlene comes back out wearing a crop top and booty shorts with a magic wand, a doughnut, a hamburger and a slice of dauntless cake. "Off you go Mar Mar. Tris, Christina and I will go and watch you do your dare and we will film it for you." We set off
"Uri, what was the dare?"
"Well, the dare is to run around the pit and tempt people into doing the konga then lead them to the ambassadors office, burst in and provoke the ambassadors into coming with the konga line."
"Ok so why the crop top and booty shorts?"
"That was the bit I was getting to. The way she has to provoke the ambassadors is by stripping sexily into only her underwear. The dauntless cake will help with the rest of the people in dauntless." I just shake my head and laugh. We get to the cafeteria and me, Chris and Uriah have decided to be part of the konga line so we are attached to Mar at the start. Then we must have about 200 people on our line and with Mar's camera streaming live to the people still in Zeke's place we are all set to go to the ambassadors office. And that we do. When we get there I shove open the door and shove Marlene in and I have to follow her. She strips into her underwear and offers some dauntless cake to the ambassadors and we go on with the konga and we leg it. Marlene is beetroot red with embarrassment and Christina is laughing her butt of like me and Uriah. Fortunately I am wearing my dr. martens so when I notice that Marlene has some followers I simply stop where I am and fall on the floor. I see the two men following her stop above me and offer me a hand each to get up, I thank them and then I do an impressive jump and kick them both. They both fall on the floor and we run even faster than before. When we get back to Zeke's Marlene is fully dressed again, I am very proud of myself, Uriah and Christina look at me in a very shocked manor and everyone else in the room looks at me with impressed expressions on their faces. I sit down next to Natalie and we stay there as Marlene says "Tris, truth or dare?" and I think 'oh god.'
"Dare please."
"Okay. Come with me." When we are alone she goes into Zeke's room and gets a small box which I then open and I scream. Marlene quickly hides it because Tobias, Christina, Natalie, Becca, Bella, Peter (Initiation), Peter and Shauna come running.
"WHAT WAS THAT?!"
"Oh, nothing…" I say glaring slightly at Christina who gets the message.
"It was probably just Mar telling her the dare she has to do." I silently thank her and she smiles. "Let's go back to the room." They all follow her but Nat goes last, I think she has sussed us out.
"Right so Tris. I dare you to find something in here for everyone. A little present for us all." I nod and she says "But you have to tie a bow with one of these for all of the ones for the boys. Got it?"
"Yes. I think. You may need to help me with the bows though." She nods in agreement. I hear her going out of the room to tell everyone else what is going to happen. I hear cheers from the room. I find a coconut bra in the bedroom which I put on with a little apron so that I am a proper little waitress. For Tobias I find the keys to Zeke's car and some unflattering photos of Zeke, Uriah, Lynn, Shauna and Marlene and unfortunately the whole of the gang, for Natalie I find an iPod, for Christina I find a pair of 8 inch heels in silver, for Will I find massive rubiks cube, for Uriah, Marlene, Shauna and Lynn I find a teddy bear and for Lauren, both Peters and Bella I find particularly unflattering photos of Zeke and Uriah. Zeke, a pie. I go out and give the girls their presents.
"Lynn, Shauna and Marlene, I give you a teddy bear each! Bella, Lauren and Becca, I give you some very unflattering pictures of Zeke, and Uriah. Natalie, I give you an I give you a pair of 8 inch heels. Speaking of which, Zeke. Why have you got a coconut bra, apron and a pair of 8 inch heels?"
"Emergencies… truth or dare parties ok!" then I go back into the kitchen with Marlene at my heels andwe go and finish the boys presents.
"This is Four's, Zeke's, Will's, Peter's, Peter's and Uriah's. done?"
"Yes." Marlene puts on a coconut bra and apron and we go out.
"Zeke, I give you a pie. Will, I give you a rubiks cube. Peter from initiation, I give you another pie." I splat it in his face "Peter from Abnegation, I give you pictures of Zeke and Uriah. Uriah, I give you a teddy bear. And Four, I give you some pictures of all of us, I also give thee a car!" Four snatches the car keys and asks the obvious question.
"Tris. why did you tie a bow with… with… with this?" He says gesturing to the bow.
"Marlene, you can answer that."
"Four, mate. GIVE ME BACK MY CAR YOU MORON!" Four takes a heavy punch to the nose and relinquishes his grip on the keys and Zeke grabs them. "Thank you. Who's go is it now?"
"Mine. Four, truth or dare?"
"Truth."
"What was the nastiest joke you have ever played on someone?"
"Well, I kind of stripped a kid and stuck him in the girls bathroom." We all start laughing except for Uriah.
"HEY THEY THOUGHT I WAS ADORABLE. But when he says he stripped me he means it literally. I was in the bathroom completely naked. I was fourteen and they were all like fifteen and sixteen. Wait… Four, that was you man?"
"yeah… sorry mate. Uriah truth or dare?"
"Dare."
"I dare you to go and find-" he takes his shirt off because he knows what is coming.
"I WILL NOT DO ANYTHING WITH THAT THING! DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?!" and he takes his jeans off.
"yes." Four says
"Right, lynn truth or dare?"
"Truth."
"Alright you little pansycake which of the leaders would you want to date?"
"Four. Sorry Tris but your man is so hot!" She earns a death glare from Four and he pulls me in to him and kisses the top of my head. "Moving on, Shauna, truth or dare?"
"Dare please."
"go into the pit and kiss the first person that you know, either male or female." She nods and Natalie, me and Lynn follow her the first person she sees is… Harry, one of the Amity transfers. "You have to do it Shauna." Says Natalie "Harry is the first person that you have seen that you know. He was in my class at school. I know he is older than me but I was the cleverest in my year and they knew what would happen if they left me there so they put me into the lowest group in the year above. I understood it all and I helped him out. Then they came hunting for people to help in the years below. They picked me and Harry. He was terrified and I just said let me do the talking and that is what happened. That's how I know him. I think that is what they were hunting for. Go on, he wont bite. I promise." Shauna just looks shocked at Natalie's confession and then goes to Harry and kisses him and then invites him to join the game. He accepts the invitation. "Hey Harry." Says Natalie and they hug.
"How come you're here Nat?"
"Well, my mom and dad just died and my sister is Becca so we are living here. I was at the choosing ceremony, I couldn't believe it when you transferred to Dauntless. Why did you transfer?"
"I don't know really but I think it was because I believe that it is right to protect people rather than just sit back, relax and let everyone else do everything for you, like it was in Amity." He gives Natalie a hug and then asks the obvious questions. "I have two questions. One, where are we going? And two, why did Shauna just kiss me?"
"We're going to play truth or dare with Uriah's brother, Zeke. And truth or dare."
"Okay." We get back to Zeke's apartment and we sit back down. I suspect that there is something more than friendship between Harry and Natalie.
"Alright Harry, you know how to play truth or dare right?" He nods in response and we carry on going. "Turth or dare Natalie?"
"Uhhhhhhh, dare please."
"I dare you to go to the pit and run sround screaming mutant spider." She nods and me and Harry follow her. Whilst she does her dare I talk to Harry.
"Harry."
"Yeah."
"Do you have a crush on Natalie?"
"Pfft no." He says unconvincingly. I look at him pointedly "Alright alright, I do."
"Ok, that makes my job in this game a whole lot easier. Do you want me to try and get you two together by the end of it?" He nods. "Ok, I will try my best. Let's go back to Zeke's." We go back laughing our butts off after that dare.
"Harry, truth or dare?" Says Natalie.
"Truth."
"Who do you have a crush on?" His shirt goes flying off.
"Zeke, truth or dare?"
"Dare."
"I dare you to go into the pit and find an initiate and use a crazy pickup line."
"Ok." He, Isaac, Bella, Harry, Becca and Natalie go off. Whilst I tell the rest of the group what is going on.
"Listen up. Harry has got a crush on Natalie and I promised that I would try and get them together by the end of the game. Will you help me?" They all nod. "It can't be anything to big to start with because people will notice people being her siblings. Becca mainly." At this they burst in and Zeke is bright red.
"Uriah truth or dare?" He says quickly.
"Dare."
"I dare you to go and tell Freda that I don't have a crush on her!" We all start laughing our butts off at that but he goes off in only his boxers to tell Freda that and he comes running back and screams "BLOCK THE DOOR THE THING IS COMING!" we all go to our action stations and then we get bins, sheets and anything we can find and shove it in front of the door. "Moving swiftly onwards, Natalie, truth or dare?"
"Dare."
"I dare you to sit on Harry's lap for the rest of the game." She goes and sits on Harry's lap. "Four is it?" He nods "Truth or dare?"
"Truth."
"Why do I recognise you?"
"I was a faction transfer from 3 years ago. I was Abnegation before I was dauntless. What tipped you off?"
"Eyes. Only an Abnegation has eyes like that. They are very similar to mine, Tris's, Beccas, Bella's and Peter's if you look closely." He looks closely and says.
"I see what you mean. Harry, truth or dare?"
"Dare."
"I dare you to kiss Natalie on the cheek." Harry looks at me and I look him in the eyes and slightly move my head down and up. He kisses her on the cheek. "Tris truth or dare?"
"Truth."
"What rank were you during initiation?"
"1st. Becca, truth or dare?"
"Truth."
"What is the most unabnegation thing you have ever done in Abnegation?"
"Well, I kissed a dauntless boy but I think that Natalie and possibly you already know about that. That was probably the most unabnegation thing I have ever done." She just shrugs it off without even a hint of reservation. "Four, truth or dare?"
"Truth."
"Most awkward experience."
"Not a chance." He takes off his top and me sitting next to him I could feel his muscles. "Oh and I think that we need to end this now but we can play again tomorrow. Ok?" There are nods from everyone.

Natalie POV

After everyone has gone me and Harry go down to the is almost completely empty now and we find a secret door that leads us to a little gap in the rocks that we go and sit in. We can see and hear the roaring river below us.
"Natalie."
"Mmmhmm." I say turning to look at him.
"I have to tell you something."
"What?" I say curiously now.
"Well, I think that I might… I think that I might… I think that I might be in love with you." He says and I am just shocked I look at him and he looks at me. Two people, from different factions, brought together by death and transfer. It seems strange to me how now that we are here we could be able to be together. I look at him and he looks at me, and we kiss. I embrace the kiss. He has got no idea how much I have wanted to do this and for how long I have wanted to do this. I run my hands through his hair and then we are just sitting there kissing with only the sounds of the river below us to keep us company but who needs anyone else when you have the one you love right next to you. Then I pull away, he looks a bit sad.
"Harry." He looks up at me "I think I might love you aswell." And we start again. We don't do anything else for a while except sit, kiss and talk.
"Where are you and your siblings staying?"
"Your dorm. Apparently there are three extra beds in there."
"There are. One of which is next to me." He says and we head off back to the dormitory. When we get there I see a wide room with 15 or so beds. I take the bed next to Harry and we fall asleep holding hands. When I wake up the next morning I can barely remember anything about yesterday but then I look over at Harry who is also awake and I smile at him then I remember what happened yesterday evening. "What's the time Harry?"
"Uhhh, 5:00. Why?"
"Just wondering. What time does training start?"
"8:00."
"Shall we continue where we left off yesterday?" He nods and we go to the gap in the rocks where we were yesterday. When we get there it is deserted like it was yesterday. Today we decide to stand and watch the river for a bit then he turns to me and he looks at me and I look back and we kiss. I shut my eyes and just let it happen. He pulls away after a minute and we turn around to find Four and Tris. Damn.
"Looks like this isn't just our special spot." Says Four. I look at Harry and we look at Four and Tris.
"What?"
"Me and Four. We first kissed here." Then Tris looks up at Four and gives him a quick peck on the cheek. It's kind of cute seeing them like that. It feels like all of what is happening with me and Harry has happened to them before us so it doesn't feel quite so weird now.
"Tris, please don't tell anyone. Especially not my siblings. I don't know how open they are to this sort of thing. Even though we all know about what happened between her and that dauntless kid, Ray I think his name is, I don't know what she will say about me and someone older than me. Please don't tell anyone." I say
"I promise not to tell anyone about this. I think that you, Bella and Isaac should come to training today. Just so you can watch everyone train. Sound ok?" says Tris
"Yeah, I would love to. Thanks Tris." I say
"Well, we're gonna go. Bye." Says Tris and her and Four head off.
"Shall we stay here for a bit longer?"
"Mmmkay." We sit and watch the rocks below us and the river crashing into the rocks. It is beautiful. I turn to him.
"Harry."
"Nat."
"What happens in training?"
"Fighting, shooting, throwing and most physical stuff. We know nothing about stages two and three except that stage two is mental, and stage three is emotional."
"Sounds interesting. Nothing like Abnegation initiation, in Abnegation we would do like 30 days of community service. That really doesn't appeal to me. What about in Amity?"
"We would spend like 30 days being kind, helping out with any jobs, working in the fields. All that stuff. That doesn't really appeal to me. Candor initiation is awful, my best friend, after you, moved to Candor. They have to go under the truth serum in front of the whole faction and they get asked loads of really personal questions. Erudite is just IQ tests and all that stuff and Dauntless is breaking point. For everything."
"I think that I would rather be in Dauntless than any other faction to be completely honest. I like to be free. We should get back to the dormitory." We have one last kiss and then we go back to the dormitory. Tris comes in about 15 minutes after we get back and wakes us all up, me and Harry are already dressed so we go straight to the cafeteria. Harry, me and two of the dauntless borns arereally good friends and we have been since the last year of school, they were in Harry's class and I helped them out a bit as well, in return for some dauntless cake. We sit at the table of four right on the edge of the cafeteria. Harry sits opposite me and next to Will, and I sit next to Ali.
"So, do you have to go to school at the moment Natalie?"
"Not until Christmas. And then I only have to go back to school to do my final exams and then I can just stay here until the choosing ceremony. I finished all of the classes that I could take last year so they decided to say that I no longer have to go to that school anymore. When I told my sister and brother, they were phenomenally pissed with me because Bella and Isaac have to go to school until the choosing ceremony. That means that I only have to go to school for one month out of the year. Which also means that we can do more stuff together because I am living here from now on. My parents went yesterday. They had been ill for some time but I think Becca transferring shocked them so much that it happened. I'm not really that sad. Meet me here at lunch, we can eat and then we can go because I want to show you why I am not that sad that they're gone." They look at me puzzled but they agree. I can't tell anyone else about this. Not even Isaac, Becca or Bella. But I can tell my friends they, after all, have never met my parents and they don't know who they are. I was always the responsible one, becca was always out of the house but she never got punished for it but whenever I was out of the house and I came back anywhere from 1 hour + I was scalded for it. Anyway, when Tris calls for the initiates to go to the training room I stand up and we go. "Why are you coming? I thought you were 15."
"Well, I have to learn the in's and out's of dauntless life so she invited me and my siblings to training to watch what is happening. I am going to be living here from now on." I say smiling.
"Well, if you want, we can help train you at lunch, we can teach you how to fire a gun and how to throw a knife. Sound ok?" Kloe says and I smile and nod. Then we head off to training. Isaac and Bella just stay in the corner of the room no matter how many times Tris tells them to come and join me. They are taking it in turns to teach me how to throw a punch or a kick. I really enjoy it and I take a break when people start fighting. I look at the board and I see that Kloe and Will are fighting each other today. Harry isn't fighting today. Becca is fighting Light, an Amity transfer. Me and Harry stand in the corner of the room watching some of the fights. I can't watch my sisters one though. So me, Harry, Kloe and Will go and do some more practice. When we finally break for lunchi am relieved. Me, Harry, Kloe and Will go and eat and then I remember my promise.
"Do you still want to see why I am not sorry about their deaths?" They all nod and I gesture for them to follow me. We walk out of the room and into the empty transfers dorm. "You have to promise not to tell anyone. Ok." They nod as if it were a question, but it isn't. I lift up my shirt and turn around. For them to see the full extent or it all I have to completely take my shirt off. I hear gasps and then I turn onto my back and show them the front of me. More gasps at that. I put my shirt back on.
"Natalie. Why didn't you tell us abou this?"
"Because… because… because I was scared. Well, do you remember the time when we went to the park, all four of us, and we sat in the woods and I helped you with school work?"
"Yeah, I loved that day."
"Yeah, well my dad found out about it and he locked me in the closet upstairs for hours. When I came out it was just me and him at home and that was the first time." I say. "That is why I am not a wreck today. I hated him for what he did to me."
"So, excluding your siblings, you have no family now. Correct?" I nod "You don't get on very well with your siblings. Correct?" I nod again. "That's that sorted then. We will be your new family. We will be one of the weirdest families I have ever seen but we will be a family. Sound good?" I nod again. "Shall we go and teach these two how to fire a gun and how to throw a knife now, Kloe?" Says Will. And she nods. We head off to the training room. When we get there we see Uriah being cornered by Freda. I am on the verge of laughter when I see what Freda is trying to do. He notices me and through the use of only his eyes, tells me to do something. Kloe, Will and Harry haven't got there yet so I decide to try something out. I notice that there is a table with knives on it. I know that I have a good aim so I pick up a knife and I see what I can do. Inhale, exhale, inhale, throw. When I let the knife fly I think it is going to hit her but it doesn't it just catches the tip of her ear. She notices me when the knife catches her ear and she makes a run for it.
"Natalie. Where did you learn to do that?" Asks Uriah, I am just about to respond when my friends arrive.
"Where did Natalie learn to do what?" Harry asks.
"Well, I sort of threw that knife over there." I say pointing at the knife. "And I'm not quite sure, Uriah. I just can do it. I have always had a good aim but I never realised quite how good." He gets the knife and brings it over to show my friends.
"Who's blood is that?"
"Freda's" Says Uriah without hesitation. "She was trying to do it again. She had me pinned up against that board over thereand when Natalie saw that she picked up this knife and threw it and she must've aimed it just right because it just got the tip of her ear. The quick healing cartilidge. What are you all doing in here anyway?"
"Oh we were just coming to help teach Natalie and Harry how to throw a knife and how to fire a gun. Because Natalie helped you do you think that you could get us some guns and ammo please?" Asks kloe.
"Okay." He says. "Oh and Natalie."
"Yeah."
"Thanks."
"Any time." I say back. Then I turn to my friends.
"Well Natalie. I don't think we really need the knife throwing with you. I have lived here my entire life and even I can't throw a knife that well, let alone on my first try. Can you show us please?" says Will and I nod. I pick up a new knife and start. Inhale, exhale, inhale, throw. It hits the very centre of the target and I look around to see my friends looking at me with amazed facial expressions. "So, no reason for knife throwing given that you hit Freda's ear or your first go and you hit the centre of the target on your second. Let's go for the guns shall we?" Me and Harry nod. "So, shall I just let you have a go to see what you need to do to improve?"
"Mmmhmm." Harry mumbles. I take a gun. I find it very heavy at first but then I get used to the weight. I look at the targets on the wall and I decide to use the same method as I did with the knife. Inhale, exhale, aim and fire. I look at where it went. It went straight through the centre circle. When I turn around I see my friends staring at me, open mouthed. "How did you do that?" Asks Harry.
"I, I don't know. I just did. Is that not normal for a first go?"
"NO! Most people don't hit the target on their first go!"
"I see…"
"We need to get Tris, Four, Uriah and Christina. You are amazing, Natalie." Says Will and Kloe nods still open mouthed.
"Kloe, shut your mouth or you'll catch flies." And she does. Harry runs off to get the instructors and they are back in 5 minutes.

"So, I hear we have a dauntless prodigy in here. Care to show us what you can do Natalie?" says Christina
"Uhhh, ok." I say. I take a knife. Inhale, exhale, inhale and throw. It hits the very centre of the target again. Next I take the gun. Inhale, exhale, aim and shoot. It goes straight through the centre of the target again. I turn around to see everyone in the room. The initiates have joined us. So have my siblings. I feel very shy until I hear a shout coming from the crowd, which then turns into everyone shouting and chanting my name.
"Well, it seems we actually do have a dauntless prodigy in here. And it isn't even an initiate. Howmany times have you done that, kid?" Asks Four.
"Well, including that, twice for the gun," I gesture to the two holes in the targets that I used for the shooting, "And three times for the throwing." I say now gesturing to the holes in the boards and then to Freda.
"Oh yeah. I didn't tell you. Freda here tried to kiss me again and then Natalie came in and threw that knife at her. Freda get yourbutt over here now." Says Uriah and she moves over to the centre of the room. "See this cut on her ear? That was done on a first try at throwing a knife. Go back into the group Freda." She obeys. I can't really help the growing warmth inside of me. The warmth, I realise is pride surging through my body and taking me over. I look over at Isaac, Bella and Becca and they just seem jealous. But of what I wonder. Of the fact that I can shoot a gun or because I can throw a knife. I am actually kind of sad that my own family don't appreciate me. Then again, I shouldn't be that surprised by it because I know that once Becca was at home when our dad would hit me and she came upstairs and saw what was happening and she did nothing. I think that she just erased it from her memory after that but I will never forget the feeling of helplessness that I had and the feeling of being let down. I thought that she would help me. But she didn't. I am surprised when all of the dauntless leaders and all of the ambassadors come into the room.
"I heard something about a new dauntless prodigy in here. Who is it?" Says the leader of dauntless, Max. I think about putting my hand up but I don't. Uriah speaks up. "It is Natalie. She is not an initiate but she is a natural. Today, about 15 minutes ago, she picked up a throwing knife for the first time in her life and she threw it perfectly. Look at Freda's ear. That was her first try of throwing a knife. She also fired a gun perfectly."
"Let us see this prodigy in action." Says Lenny, and ambassador I think.
"Ummm, ok." I pick up a new knife and I see the target. I block out everything else around me and focus. Inhale, exhale, inhale and Throw. I look at the target and yet again it hit the very centre of the target. Then I pick up the gun. Inhale, exhale, inhale and fire. Same technique and it goes through the very centre of the target. I look back at everyone watching. Then I turn to look at the ambassadors and the leaders of dauntless.
"Can I ask you a question, Natalie?"
"Uh, yeah I guess."
"We don't normally do this but in your case you are obviously a very gifted child. Would you like to come into this years group of initiates? As I understand, you are already sixteen. We can administer an aptitude test today to see what you want to do, but we are offering you a chance to be dauntless. What do you say?" Max says. I am just as shocked as anyone else in this room is.
"Yes. I would like to see what the test says first but I think so yes." I say. Max leads me out of the door and my friends follow me out. We walk down the corridor talking and then we reach the tattoo parlour.
"Tori. We need a word." I hear Tori coming down the stairs.
"Yes Max, what do you need?"
"I need a favour."
"Okay, I am officially scared by that request. What sort of favour?"
"Well, we have a dauntless prodigy in this room. She is sixteen and we need to administer an aptitude test. I have the program and everything ready but we need someone who is able to administer it. We need you to administer and aptitude test for Natalie. Can you do that?"
"Yes." Says Tori.

Aptitude test.

"Choose." A voice from behind me says. I turn around and see nothing. "Choose." It says again.
"What will I do with it?" I say referring to the cheese and the knife on the table.
"Choose." She says. I turn around and I refuse to choose. "Have it your way." Suddenly, the knife and the cheese vanish and I see a dog appear. I remember all of the stuff that my biology teacher taught us. I kneel down and hold my hand out and the dog stops growling and sits down in front of me. I then see a girl, dressed all in white she says "PUPPY!" then the dog charges. I do what my first instinct tells me to do. I leap on to the dog to protect the little girl. Then I am on a bus. I see a man and he starts talking to me.
"Do you know this guy?" I look at the picture he is referring to and I have a nagging feeling that I do. Then I realise why.
"No." I lie.
"You're lying. TELL THE TRUTH, GIRL. IF YOU DO, YOU COULD SAVE ME. YOU COULD SAVE ME."
"I believe that. I do know him. He is my dad."
"Thank you for your honesty." I hear. Everyone on the bus says that. Then I will the simulation to end and I resurface. Max, Tori and my friends look at me, shocked. Tori speaks first.
"You are by far the strongest divergent I have ever seen. You have an aptitude for Erudite, Dauntless, Abnegation and Candor. I need to ask a question. When that man told you about the guy in the paper, was it really your dad and why did you say that you believe him?" I can't speak I just nod and then take off my shirt. Tori and Max look at each other, worried. "You know, you can wait till next year to choose your faction." I put my shirt back on.
"I know. But I want to be here now. I choose dauntless." I say.
"Well, that's that." Says Max. "You are now an initiate. Go and get to training. All four of you. Oh and Natalie. You can't tell people about this. The test I mean." Harry then picks me up and I shriek and he runs to the training room.

"Well, tell us. What happened?" Says Ashley
"Well, I am a dauntless initiate." I say and then Harry picks me up and I am sitting on his shoulders and everyone is shouting congratulations. We then start the fights for today. I am paired against Nathan. He is good but not as good as me and this is my first ever fight and he has had training. I haven't! by the end of it I have knocked him out cold. After the fight I don't feel any guilt at all but when I look back at the rest of the initiates, they are all gaping at me.
"How are you so good?" Says Ali
"I'm not that good."
"You are. Nathan won his last fight and you haven't had any training." Says Freddie.
"Well. I don't know." I say "I just. I don't know." Then my friends swoop in and save me.
"Give the girl a break." Says Harry.
"Yeah, just because she is good and is younger than you doesn't mean you should ask her so many questions." Says Kloe. Then the next fight begins. I watch and then I cheer with the rest of the initiates when Harry is victorious. I watch Kloe's and Will's and then I zone out until Tris taps me on the shoulder and asks me for a word.
"Hi Tris. What do you want?"
"I want to know about what happened between you and your siblings, you don't seem to care about them at all." She says. As much as I don't want to answer I nod telling her that I will tell her but not here and not now.
"I will tell you later. Come to the transfers dorm tonight half way through dinner and I will tell you. Kloe, Will and Harry will be there as well. They need to know." I say sadly.
"Okay. Transfers dorm at 7:00." She says and then walks back to Four I turn to my friends and we start talking.

"So." Says Kloe. "Are you excited to be an initiate and a dauntless prodigy a year early?"
"Yeah. Listen, guys. Will you meet me in the transfers dorm at 7:00? I need to tell you something. Tris is going to be there. I just need to own up to some stuff."
"We'll be there Natalie but why are you so edgy?"
"Well, you'll find out if you come tonight. I'm so sorry but I can't tell you here or now." My friends look puzzled but I need them to come. I need to tell them about my sister and what has happened to me in the past. I feel like I need to tell people before I can move on from the past. About half an hour later it is 6:00, YES FINALLY DINNER! Swe walk out into the corridor and go to dinner. Will is carrying me and Harry is carrying Kloe. They race down to the cafeteria and we go and get our food. Will goes and gets as many cakes as he possibly can whilst Kloe goes to get burgers.
"Natalie. What is wrong? You have been acting weird for a few hours now. Please tell me."
"Well… it isn't anything about us I promise it is just my confessions and what I have already told you. And shown you." I say, and I mean it. Most of the time when people say something like that they don't mean it but I do. He seems to accept that.
"Natalie, you don't think that because you told us about your dad and because you've shown us the scars, you promise me that you don't think that we think of you any differently"
"I promise. Can I ask, when are we going to tell the others? About us I mean."
"I don't know. We should tell Kloe and Will today but nobody else. About 5 minutes later the others get back and we start talking.

"I don't like Freda, Freddie or Ali. My prediction is that Freda and Freddie are gone by stage two. And Ali. I don't think so. Nat, what are you doing with your hamburger?"
"My what now?" I say, Confused.
"Hamburger. The thing you have on your plate." Says Jackie.
"Uh, hi Jackie. Do you want something?" I say
"I just want to sit here. Joe and Harmony are dating and we don't exactly get on very well anyway. Besides, going back to you Natalie, how do you not know what a hamburger is?"
"Abnegation eat plain food. No seasoning, no taste and no cake." I say getting gasps from everyone around the table at the mention of the 'no cake'.
"No wonder you left."
"Yeah, it was just because of the food. Please say they let you listen to music in Abnegation."
"No not exactly but I still did. I have always been a major music geek so I snuck in some stuff. What are your favourite bands?"
"I quite like BVB they are my life right now." Says Kloe I give her a high five.
"I kinda like Iggy Azalea. And I hate Nikki Minaj. I can compare them but it is not exactly much of a challenge to see who I like more." Says Jackie.
"WHAT?! COMPARING NIKKI MINAJ AND IGGY AZALEA IS LIKE COMPARING QUEEN TO ONE DIRECTION!" At the mention of one direction I jump up and steal all of the cake. My friends roar with laughter and chase me around the compound until we get to the transfers dorm. I burst in closely followed by my friends and we sit on the beds and we roar with laughter whilst eating cake. About 10 minutes later we have finished the cake and we are still talking about bands.
"I HATE and I mean HATE One direction!" I say getting grins and nods in agreement. Jackie stands up and leaves and that just leaves Kloe, Will, Harry and me. "Now we are just waiting for Tris." I say and sure enough in a minute she bursts in.
"I HEARD SOMETHING ABOUT CAKE!" She shouts as she comes into the room. We decided to be nice and we left her a slice. We hand her the plate and once she has finished I start to talk.

I really hope you like this. I know I haven't updated in ages but it's because I couldn't find anywhere good to stop in this chapter. this chapter alone is around 7000 words long... I got carried away. I hope you liked. Please review.

Bye, My Divergent Demigods. xx
