"Shut the door" he says as we walk into the simulation room. I shut the door behind me and walk over. "You're gonna practice" he says

"In my fear landscape?" I ask

"No. In mine. We go in together" he says

"Have you ever done this before? I ask

"No, I haven't" he says

"You sure you want to?" I ask

"Why wouldn't I?" He says looking at me and setting everything up.

"I don't know. You haven't told me anything about yourself and now you're just gonna let me inside of your head?" I say

"Are you afraid of that?" He asks

"You're not?" I ask he looks at me for a moment and then responds.

"No" he says getting the needles ready. He injects me with it and then himself and then sets up the wires on my temples and his own and then sits in the seat. I open my eyes and see we're high up on a platform.

"Fear of heights. I'm not surprised" I say

"It's not real" he says

"No. We could just jump" I say standing up

"Divergent would jump. Dauntless would get to that building. If you want  to pass, if you want to avoid discovery. You have to do everything the way a Dauntless would do it. You have to find some tool, some method to survive" I began crawling over to the building Four followed behind me and went inside the building closing the door behind us. Four suddenly groans as the room began to become smaller.

"Fear of confinement" I say "you're not the only one struggling with this one" I say breathing heavily.

"You have to find a way of stopping it. What would a Dauntless do?" He says to me I look around and find some screws on the ground and pick them up sticking them in between the moving wall.

"Good" he says grunting "take your time. I'm just enjoying myself in this shrinking box"

"I'm panicking too okay" I say as the walls stop moving. We're cuddled up into each other when we open our eyes we're no longer in the small room but a larger one. Four stands up and walks over to a table.

"As a Dauntless soldier, you have to follow orders you don't always agree with." Four says picking up the gun and aiming it at the girl in the chair.

"Who is she?" I ask

"She's an innocent. I have to kill her" he says "but I can never do it. Unless I look away" Four turns away and pulls the trigger killing the girl. He then backs away and we are now in Abnegation.

"Why are we in Abnegation?" I ask

"Your last fear is your worst fear. It lives in the deepest part of your mind." He says then it clicks

"Marcus had a son. What was his name?" I ask

"Tobias" Marcus's voice says as he walks into the room.

"Tobias..."
"Tobias.." his voice echoes throughout the room. Multiple Marcus's surround us.

"I'm just trying to help you to be better" Marcus takes off his belt and is about to hit him.

"No!" I yell and step in front of him and block the belt. I hit him causing all the other ones to fall. We both wake up and take off the wires I run a hand through my hair and sigh standing up. Four leaves the room I take a minute to breath and take in what happened. I then walk out and find him outside leaning against the railing. I walk over and lean on the railing beside him.
