Woah I'm actually uploading a day after, I SAID IT FIRST! Aaaaaanyways we're back to our candor-dauntless friend!
Melly's POV
To be honest, if I was asked who I have become closest to of all people, I would say Steffi but watching her almost kill Avery, it frightened me to death. Is this the real Steffi? As Nasti and I carry her to the hospital wing we are panicking, is this what my new friend is always like? Did she just show her true colours?
I'm stopped thinking when Nasti screams "She just bit me! Fetch the nurse now! I'll hold her down!" I can barely remember the way but then I realize that its the second left past the chasm. I don't think, I just run. When I pass the chasm I forget to stop myself and I barge into the door. The door opens slowly and the nurse inside looks surprised rather than angry. "Help! I'm an initiate and so is my friend! She's going crazy and I don't know what to do!" The nurse doesn't say a word, instead she turns around and walks away, I expect the door to slam in my face but it doesn't, instead she comes back with a needle.
We begin to make our way back and I almost stop dead when I hear another scream, it's not Nasti this time, it's Steffi. We stop dead in our tracks as the scene unfolds. John holds Nasti back and she struggles to break free of his grip, beside her Luke is kicking Steffi in the ribs as she cries out. "Gaurds!" the nurse screams. It's not even seconds before I send a powerful punch to Luke's jaw and he falls to the ground. Beside me, Nasti breaks free of John's grip and she punches him in the face. Finally four dauntless men appear, one flings me back effortlessly and the other picks Steffi up and I watch silent tears fall from her face, the other guard grabs Nasti and the guard holding me screams "Stop!" suddenly I realize it's Amar. "These three girls haven't done anything wrong! Its the two boys we're after!" I watch one gaurd let go of Steffi and she falls to the ground, the other pushes Nasti out of the way to grab John and I free myself from Amar's grip. Amar grabs John's arm and they make their way over to the nurse who leads them down the hall.
The last guard stays with us and tries to question us but we ignore him as I try to console Steffi and Nasti rubs a red mark on her arm. After twenty minutes Amar returns with a shaken Elin. Nasti stares at her with fear. Elin just displays a half grin and nods to her to say 'well done'. Eventually, Amar speaks up "There was still a day left of stage one, but I think I can confirm that this type of initiation was a fail so we cancel the fights for tomorrow, after our game of capture the flag we will rank you, but we may rank you before this, it's still undecided, I think everyone's actions in this assault will play a part in rankings too."
I drown out his next few words, will my mother come and see me tomorrow? Will my brother? Do they still love me? Steffi exchanges a few words with Amar, I think she apologizes for her actions and Amar nods, saying a few words that I don't catch. "By the way Elin, I want to see you and Nasti tonight, it is very important". Finally, he allows us to leave.
