The Broken Divergent Eric Coulter x Reader

A Little Bit Of Rebellion

Y/n's Pov

     I let out a breath and pull the trigger and hit the shoulder of the shooting dummy and swear under my breath. I either keep missing or hit limbs. The others keep getting body or headshots. I feel someone's hand touch my hip, I turn around and throw a punch at whoever did it, only for my hand to be caught mid-punch. I look at the person and see it, Eric.

     "I'm trying to help Stiff take it easy," he says placing both of his hands on my hips and turning me back around to the target. "Okay now get in your position." He tells me, I lift up my gun and get in my stance. "Now focus on the target in front of you." He takes one of his hands off my hip and places it on the gun and moves to the left a little. "Now take a deep breath and shoot." He tells me, I take a deep breath in and pull the trigger, it was a headshot, dead in the middle of the target. I smile and keep pulling the trigger over and over again, as Eric steps away. I kept shooting until I heard a click meaning it needed to be reloaded. I hit all over the dummies head and I smile at myself proud.

     "Hey, Eric!" I yell, we was walking towards another kid, he turns around and looks at me.                 "Thanks," I say, he nods and then helps another kid struggling.

     After shooting for an hour or so it was time for lunch so we all headed inside to the cafeteria. I grab some food and sit next to Christina, Tris, and Will.

     "How was training for you guys with Eric?" Christina asks me and Will causing him to shrug.

     "It was fine, helped me get my aim down during shooting," I say taking a bite of my pizza.

    "Four was fine too, helped Tris the most out of us all though," Christina teased elbowing Tris causing her to giggle.

   "Shooting was tricky okay," she claims, causing us all to laugh. Four sat at the end of the table again, staring at me. I ignore him and continue eating and chatting with my friends. After dinner was done I walked with my friends into our sleeping quarters. We exchanged goodnights and went to bed.

    I woke up to Tris shoving me off my bed.

     "Hey, why did you do thattttt!" I whine still in my sleepy state causing all my friends to laugh.

      "It's time to get up sleepy head." Will teases helping me up from the ground.

     "Well, you could have woken me up like a normal human being," I say as I start to get dressed.

      "We will be at breakfast," Tris yells as her, Will, and Christina left for the cafeteria. I groan and slip on a black t-shirt and put on my combat boots and head to the cafeteria myself.

      I just grab a blueberry bagel and sit down next to Christina and take a bite. I zoned out ignoring them since they were talking about Cander. I finish my bagel and rest my head on my hand and just stare at the wall to my right. I snap out of it as someone waves a hand in front of me.

     "Earth to Y/n, you there?" Will asks raising an eyebrow.

     "Sorry just tired," I yawn

     "Here some coffee to help you wake up, we got a big day," Tris adds handing me a cup of coffee. I thank her and sip the nice warm liquid.

     After breakfast ended we all gathered at the pit waiting for Eric or Four to show up. Eric came walking in holding a mug of what looked to be coffee, Four walking in right behind him.

     "Alright, today we are going to be learning how to use throwing knives!" Eric says. "Let's move!" He waves a hand towards the blue dummies to the front of us, throwing knives set on a table next to the dummies. We all jogged over to the table and started to throw. After a few minutes of throwing a boy misses the target completely and it goes falling to the ground with a loud clink. I watched him mumble under his breath and grabs another knife.

     "Go get it," Eric instructs him nodding to the knife he just threw.

     "What right now, why they are throwing and everything?" The boy asks.

     "What are you scared?" Eric mocked.

     "Yeah I'm scared of a rouge knife hitting me," the boy tells Eric.

     "Everyone Stop!" Eric yells making the whole room go silent. So silent you could probably hear a pin drop. Everyone turns and looks at the boy and Eric in confusion.

     "Go stand in front of the target, Four here will throw knives at you, you flinch and your cut," Eric says with a poker face. The boy's face showed pure fear, right as he was about to do so I cut in.

     "That proves nothing anyone could do that," I say taking a step forward. Now everyone's eyes switch to look at me. Eric just scoffs.

     "Well then Stiff, take his place, same rules apply to you." He smirks.

     "Fine," I give him a daring look and walk over to one of the dummies and stand in front of it. Four grabs a knife off of the table next to him, I could see his hand shaking a little bit. He makes eye contact with me, worry showed in his eyes. He throws the knife it hits right next to my right arm. I didn't even blink from it. Eric's smirk falters a bit as he nods at Four to keep on throwing. He grabs two more knives, He throws one of them it hitting right above my head.

     "Oh Four you can do better than that," Eric taunts, Four nods and throws another one it landing right next to my left leg.

     "Hey I think she needs a little cut," Eric says smiling at Four.

     "Just a little of the top maybe?" Four says causing Eric to nod. Four grabs another knife this time throwing it, making landed right next to my neck, so close it cut the skin on my next open. Still, I didn't flinch.

     "We train soldiers, not rebels Stiff, that's enough for today, have the rest of the day off," Eric says, a few people started to leave except for my friends, I walk over to them, Triss looks at my neck worriedly.

     "I think there is a first aid in the sleeping quarters' let's go fix ya up," Christina says, grabbing my hand and dragging me off towards to quarters.
