"Welcome to Chicago!" announces Zeke as the gates of the fence open.

At first I only see trees just then I see buildings. I've never seen anything like this before. In Manhattan almost all buildings were white and no sign of damage, but this was different. Here, the buildings were slightly damaged, but in a beautiful way.

The weird part is I'm comfortable in this place, not uncomfortable in the way Sam is. I spot a ferris wheel. I stare at it in awe, but soon it turns into horror. This isn't any ferris wheel. This is the ferris wheel, from my dream.

"Four!Help me"
"Hang on Tris! I'm coming!"


I whip my head towards Sam. "Did you say something Sam?"

"Like what?"

"Four." I mumble.

Sam shakes his head while Zeke flinches and Christina turns towards me.

"Does Four sound familiar?" she asks.

"No." I lie, it does sound familiar.

"Your lying."

I turn my head back to the window to avoid the statement.

"We're here." announces Zeke after a while.

"Do you want to enter the compound through the back door or Dauntless style." Shauna asks as she turns towards me.

"Through the back door!! " I've never seen Sam so nervous. Christina rolls her eyes in disgust and Shauna stares at me like Sam never said a thing. I think for a while and answer.

"Dauntless style."

Shauna grins widely, "Follow me then."

We get off the car and walk until we reach something that looks like rain tracks.

"When the train arrives you'll run, grab the handle and pull yourself inside." Instructs Zeke.

"The train will stop right?" asks Sam

"No." he replies flatly.

Sam gulps and curses. I've never seen him curse before as we weren't allowed to do so. Just then I hear a horn, I turn my head and see the train.

We start running. Zeke is the first to grab the handle, then Shauna, then Christina. I run faster. I feel like my lungs are on fire, just like in my vision. I finally grab the handle and pull myself into the car.

"Well that wasn't so bad." I hear Sam behind me. I smile to myself and sit beside Christina on the floor. I glance towards her face and see her grinning evilly at Sam. "Get ready." she voices.

"For what." Sam interrogates.

With out answering his question she jumps off the train and lands on a roof. I don't waste a second. I brace myself and jump. The moment I my feet leave the train I for the first time feel. . .alive.

I land on the roof with my heart racing, but not with fear. I hear laughter. I glance towards Christina and see her laughing her heads out pointing towards Sam who's glaring at her with a red face.

"Okay, we're not in dauntless yet just one more step."

Sam looks clearly annoyed. Zeke continues.

"And in order to get inside you need to jump."

"In order to enter Dauntless you need to jump
but the question is: Who's going to jump
first?" announces a man wearing black with
multiple piercings on his face. "Is there water at
the bottom or something?" voices a boy wearing
blue. "That you'll find out. . .or not. So who's
jumping first?" "Me" I volunteer. Everyone
stares at me in shock and make way for me.
I walk towards the edge and glance
downwards. I'm good seven stories high.
I see a massive hole and below it I see
nothing but darkness. I gulp. "Today
initiate." snaps the man. I inhale slowly and
jump.

"So who's gonna jump first?"

With out thinking I say, "Me." all heads turn towards me. Sam looks at me like I'm crazy and Christina smiles like she knew this was going to happen.

I volunteered because I wanted to prove them and my visions wrong. Wrong about me being Tris. Wrong about me knowing this place. Wrong about everything feeling right to me.

I walk towards the edge thinking just one thing:

There's no hole. Nothing like my vision.
There's no hole. Nothing like my vision.

There's no hole. Nothing like my vision.
There's no hole. Nothing like my vision.

I'm horrified by what I see. A massive hole. Just like the one in my vision. But how is it possible? I inhale slowly and jump. Adrenaline rushes through my body. My heart rate increases as energy rushes through me. I feel alive.

I feel my body collide into something. A net. There was net. I stated laughing uncontrollably. I haven't laughed in a while. Just then I feel a pair of muscular arms pull me across the net and help me down.

I look up and see him. He has ocean blue eyes, just like the boy in my dreams. He had a hard jawline and a hooked nose. I hear a body impact the net. The man with blue eyes does not help the person down, instead he does something that surprises me the most. He kisses me.

His lips are soft and warm and perfectly melt into mine. I'm to shocked to act. I don't even kiss back. He wraps an arm around my waist pressing my body against his. I feel a pair of hands forcefully pulling our bodies apart. Sam.

"What the Hell?!?! " he yells. He's about to leap on the man when suddenly Zeke stops him and pulls him away.

"Tris." the man says with pure love in his voice. He laces his fingers to mine. I jerk his hand away and run after Sam.
