"Now that the lazy ones are awake why don't we continue the game?" Zeke smirks as he gives me a 'I'm gonna do something horrible' look.

"Why not?" I smirk back with a 'try me' look.

We all sit in a circle and look at Uriah to start the game, he was going to anyways. He looks around the room for his victim.

"Four," he begins, "Candor or dauntless?"

"Dauntless" He quickly replies.

"Fine." He starts. "I dare you to take peace serum."

Four looks around and then up, he grabs the tube out of Uriah's hand and takes it like a shot. Oh no.

"We should go catch butterflies!" Four exclaims.

"NO FOUR! And Uriah what have you done to my best friend, my true love." Zeke fake crys.

Four pouts and crosses his arms but then uncrosses them and smiles while pointing out "pretty" things in the room. Uriah punches his brother in the arm and rolls over laughing.

"Well it's Four's turn but he's to rainbow and sunshine right now." I say.

"Don't worry it will only last like 10 minutes, I gave him weak stuff." Uriah says while laughing at Four being so happy.

Four heads down the hallway and up the stairs, I follow him. When he stops and turns around I wrap my arms around his neck. He looks at me, lost.

"I know you aren't yourself right now but I love you." I say while smiling.

"You're pretty just like butterflies and rainbows." He says.

Why does peace serum have such a huge effect on dauntless? I wonder.

"Oh gosh you're going to kill Uriah." I tell him.

"Violence is bad!" He screams. I hear everyone laugh downstairs.

"Let's go outside to look at flowers and rainbows and sunshine." I say so he doesn't say anything stupid to the group but Uriah stops us on our way out.

"Four, we have a few questions for you." He gestures for us to sit.

"Don't call me Four call me To-" I slap my hand over his mouth and he yells a mufflled ow.

"Sorry I didn't catch that." Uriah says smirking. Then Zeke helps out.

"Okay well....Uriah that's enough, Four go outside and be in the sunshine. Okay?" Zeke says.

"Okay." Four replies. (No pun intended)
