(A/N Hope you enjoy a lot of credit for this chapter goes to the partner I was paired with for this chapter @AnnabethMellark)
I find it..weird how two totally different..people can become friends, even..if they weren't that way to begin with.
Let me..introduce..myself first. My name is Lilly Pandora James...but I go by Pandora..I am a little shy..ok..I am pretty....shy. Until I get to know..you better than I am pretty upbeat, hyper and active. I am brave..when..I..need to be but I tend to avoid arguments and fights as much as possible... Besides that..I am trustworthy and a good friend..if you treat me with respect/the way you would want to be treated.
I am Candor born but I transferred to Amity. The peacefulness and happy feel of it all is calming and reassuring to me. But I never thought I would get mixed up with anyone in Dauntless...nothing against them..but we are pretty opposite. We enjoy peace and don't do violence. They fight and are more confrontational and more on the violent risk taker side of things. So how did I get mixed up with the hot-headed Jenna?
I will tell you, but before I get into that, why don't I tell you more about Jenna. She is smart and kinda introverted. Quick to anger but is easy to reason with once she calms down. She loves to help other especially for what is right. And lastly even though she is in Dauntless she likes to think logically before she acts on impulse.
Now that you have gotten to know us.
Here is how polar opposites became the best of friends.
....
It was a hot, lazy Saturday sometime in July. It was unbearably hot. I had asked my Amity friends if they wanted to go for a swim but they all said no. I shrugged went to put on my bathing suit grabbed some stuff and headed toward the main pool. My parents were on the committee for building it, anyone else not on the committee or part of those families on the committee were really told about it.
When I got there no one else was there, it was peaceful but still pretty hot. I laid out my towel and then heard footsteps so I turned to see who it was and mentally groaned when I saw that it was a girl from Dauntless. Nothing against the Dauntless but like I said complete opposites.
I paid her no mind, as put my stuff down. I went into the pool and mentally thanked those who made it a big pool. I began swimming, I am really good at swimming even though I don't swim that often.
Suddenly out of the corner of my vision I saw splashing and the dauntless girl was sinking. I swam over and pulled her out of the water. She was already unconscious so I took her to the hospital.
I heard a gasp and rushed to the girl's bedside.
"Oh, my goodness! Are you alright? Wait, no, sorry, I'm getting ahead of myself. My name's Pandora. Perhaps you remember me. I was the Amity girl at the pool," I said quickly.
She look a bit out of it as I spoke so I continued.
"No? Nothing? Well, basically, you were swimming, and so was I. For some reason, you suddenly stopped and started flailing around, before sinking. I swam out to you, and dragged you out of the pool. By that time, you were unconscious, and I feared you had water in your lungs, so I made sure you were rushed to the hospital. You've been here a couple of hours, but all is well."
