"Congratulations, new members of Dauntless."

"Dauntless! Dauntless! Dauntless! Everyone cheers

"All right, everybody, line up." A leader says

"What's going on?" I ask

"All right. Listen up!" Eric yells "Before you leave tonight, I want you all in four lines. Everyone gets a tracking device. Don't ask questions. It's just a precaution." Eric says

"Do you see Four?" I ask Christina

"No" she says

"What's going on?" Will says

"Oh, my god" I say to myself.

"Congratulations. You should be the first in line but... I'll make it easy for you" Eric says to me he nods his head. Suddenly I feel a really bad pain in my neck they injected me with it.

"Hurts like a bitch, huh? Now you're really one of us" he says and walks off I rub my neck and walk around looking for four but I couldn't find him so I went to bed. Some time in the morning I was woken up by everyone. They were all getting up and getting dressed. I got up looking around.

"Hey, what's..." I then realize what's going on. I get to and follow what Christina was doing putting my clothes and boots on and then following them. I needed to blend in so I had to do everything they did the exact same. I followed in line and watched ahead at what they did. They stopped, grabbed a gun and ammo, and then continued walking. So I did the same thing and acted like I was under the simulation. I saw Eric and Max talking in the distance.

"They can see and hear us. They just don't process it the same way. Commands come in through the transmitter." Max says

I saw another Divergent guy walk through the line he was confused. "What's going on?" He asks the other initiates but they don't understand him they're under the simulation. "What are we doing?" He asks

"Divergent" Max says

"Hey! Everything's fine. There's nothing to worry about" Eric says and hold out a gun and shoots I'm right in the head. The body collapse to the floor with a thud.

"Hurry up! Move!" Max yells. We get on the train and wait patiently. I see Four in the distance and make my way up to him. I stand beside him and look up at him seeing how straight his face was. I then look straight ahead and sigh holding the gun close to my body. I suddenly feel his fingers wrap around my hand and gasp. He's Divergent he's aware of what's going on. We get off the train at the Abnegation compound and walk in a line through the place.

"We need to find Olivia" I mutter to him

"Where's her house?" He asks we continue to walk until I find her house and go inside.

"Olivia?" I call out looking through the house but I couldn't find her anywhere.

"Where would she have gone?" He asks

"I don't know" I say we leave her house and her back in the line continuing to walk and blend in when Eric stops Four.

"The legendary Four...A mindless drone. You were first in your class. Now you're...Nothing" he says he goes to walk away but stops turning back to him.

"What? Think he might be..." Max began

"There's on way to find out" Eric holds a gun up to his head. "Say goodbye asshole" Eric says
