Chapter 36

Four POV

I get back to the Dauntless compound and go to see dad. I walk into his office and I am shocked to see that Jeanine and Caleb Prior are sitting in there.

"Four," dad says. "Come in I don't think you've been introduced to Jeanine." I shake her hand. "And this is Caleb Prior; he is being trained by Jeanine as part of his initiation." I shake Caleb's hand.

"You must be excited to be trained by Jeanine as part of your initiation Caleb?" I say. I find this highly suspicious. Why would Jeanine be training an initiate? She must have better things to do than this. Then I think of Tris, does Jeanine know she is divergent? Is she using Caleb against his own sister?

"Yes I have been fortunate to have Jeanine take an interest in my initiation," Caleb tells us.

"Four, Jeanine would like to show Caleb how our fear simulations work," dad says.

"Really?"

"Yes I would Four. We are always trying to develop our serums. I thought this would be an excellent way to show Caleb how Dauntless run their simulations," Jeanine says.

"Would you like me to put Caleb into a simulation?" I ask. I sure as hell don't want to have them watch any of my initiates go through theirs or mine for that matter.

"I don't think that would be necessary. Maybe one of your initiates would be willing to take us through theirs. Caleb's' sister is a Dauntless initiate I believe. Maybe she could take us through hers," Jeanine says.

"I am not sure she would want her brother seeing any of her fears," I say defensively. "Plus we have just completed fear simulations. I don't believe making Tris go through a simulation unnecessarily is a benefit to anyone."

"Well maybe we should ask her," Jeanine says. I can see that she is not going to take no for an answer. I look at dad and I can see that he is just as concerned as I am. We are both wondering what she is up too.

"I think we can have you look at a copy of a previous simulation that she has been through," dad says.

"That will suffice," Jeanine says.

"I will go and get you a copy," I say.

-.-

I don't like it dad," I say. Jeanine and Caleb have just left. "She is up to something and now she has involved her brother. What the hell is going on?"

"I don't know. We need to tell Tris what has happened. She deserves to know what is going on," dad says.

"We don't even know what is going on. And I may not have given them Tris' fear simulation," I say.

"Whose fear simulation did you give them?" he asks.

"Peters'." Dad starts laughing. "Well won't they be pissed when they see what is on the disc," he says.

"How did it go with Marcus?" He asks.

"He is at Candor. He wouldn't listen when I gave him the option to let it go. I told Jack to keep everything quiet for now. I told him we would deal with Marcus after initiation was finished. He can rot in their holding cells for a couple of weeks. Andrew Prior knows what is going on, he is going to keep Abnegation going and keep people from finding out where Marcus is for the time being," I say.
