{Time lapse to Tris's choosing ceremony}
"Tris Pedrad" Marcus Eaton calls out. Right now we are at the choosing ceremony. I am pretty sure I'm going to choose Dauntless, but I'm divergent and I got abnegation and erudite to. Im positive I don't want to leave my family and that's a fact.

I get up, and Uriah squeezes my hand for reassurance, and smiles. I take my time getting to the bowls because I don't want to trip.
I hold the tip of the knife in my hand and drag it across my palm. I only feel a sting for a little bit. I let my blood puddle up in my hand. I hesitate and put my hand in between the abnegation and dauntless bowl. my hand jerks a little towards the abnegation bowl. My blood begins to drip, but I swing my hand above the dauntless bowl and I hear the sizzle. the satisfactory of the sizzle. I take a deep breath and calmly return to my seat.

"Uriah Pedrad" Marcus calls mext, this time I squeeze Uraihs hand. He just turns around and winks at me. He jogs up to the bowls and cuts his hand and like forces the blood out into the bowl. Again another satisfactory sound of the sizzle.

Uriah comes back to his seat and I smile at him and whisper,
"I knew you would do it" and give him a side hug, and he happily replies,
"Sis, you are everything dauntless, I knew you wouldn't leave us." I just smile and zone out until the last name is called.

{ON THE TRAIN}
Lynn and I are on the train laughing at something. Lynn and Marlene stayed, which i was so happy for. I just walk through the train looking at my competition, when I see a candor girl, a candor boy and a erudite boy talking with eachother.

"Hey guys I'm tris" I say to them.

"HI MY NAME IS CHRISTINA, and I transferred from candor, and I like to speak my mind, and I love shopping and I'm a big girly girl, we should totally be bestfri--" I stop Christina by putting my hand on top of her mouth so she will stop talking. Man can she talk.

"Slow down Christina, you can't hog all the air" I tell her, and remove my hand.

"Sorry about that, my friends think I have a problem controlling my talking." She says.

"Hi I'm Will" the erudite boy says holding out his hand for me to shake. I shake it and look at the candor boy.

"Al" is all he says. Mello I see.

"Nice to meet you guys, welcome to Dauntless" I say and walk back to my brother.

"It's time to jump." I hear someone say. So I take my place at the edge of the car and prepare myself, just when I'm about to jump, I look over and see Christina nervous about jumping.

"Hey you nervous?" I shout over the wind

"Yeah"

"Well it's now or never, let's jump together, on the count of three...1...2...3!!!" I say and grab her hand and jump on the roof top. I roll, into a soft landing, when Christina just falls in laughter.
