Tonight is the night- Tris's Death Anniversary day. The whole gang meets in a circle in Amar's Apartment. Shauna- of coarse- is still on her wheel chair. At least- thats what I thought. She walks in with a wheelchair-yes, but when the blanket flew off her lap, she had braces going up her legs to her hips, then around her belly. "Caleb and his buddies made them" she smiles. Caleb walks in with Cara and they walk to sit in the center too. I see them wearing a "mask" of grief but, I can tell that they are trying to control a giddy vibe.

We a all here right now to talk, well about Tris.

"Why are you here again?" An annoyed Amar's questions

Really?

"Just Kidding!" he responds to our stares.

"We all know that Tris was a great girl. She sacrificed her life for an entire city." Caleb starts

"We are here today, to make her story." everyone in this room have confused faces.

Caleb takes something from his back pocket. It's a small black cube. He pushes a button on it that goes way into the machine, then when he takes it out, his finger is pricked and blood slowly exits his finger. His finger hovers over another small cube that withdrawals the blood. The cube opens up and Caleb pulls out a large notebook sized metal board.He opens it to a left angle and presses one of the many buttons. "In the old days, before the factions and the purity war, people have created boards such as this, but we developed them to have much more security and portability. This is like the computers used by factions before, except the cords in wires. People from before call them laptops" he says with pride.

Ugh, such an nose.

Even though we left the factions, they will always be like a scar to us. It will never fade away.

"Okay, so we can start from the begin. Dauntless. How does initiation start?"

"It starts right when you get out the building.you have to run with the crowd to the train tracks. You climb the pillar to the train tracks, then jump on the train.After wards, you jump off, onto a roof. And Jump to a net. Tris was the first jumper...." I say

"Okay, what else?"

++++++

By the end of this meeting we laughed, we shouted, we cried.

"Now, me and Cara have to show you something!" Caleb says "Or someone" he mutters.

"But first, we need to present gifts that we made for everyone!" Cara shouts

They give everyone a small white piece of glass.

"What the heck is this this?" Uriah says almost dropping it.

"This, is called an mp6 player. The advanced version of an mp3 player from the 20th century."

He take one out. "These hold music that were before the purity war and other functions such as, walkie-talkie and taking notes."

after an hour of practice using these, we got the hang of this.

I heard Caleb whispering to Cara. "She learned it quicker than these guys"

"That's because her intelligence is higher."

"Do you really think we should show them her?"

"If it will make Four happy" Caleb says

"Okay fellow accquanitances, follow me!" Caleb says in a funny voice. Practically Cara is bouncing up and down.

We walk through their laboratory which was formally where the hub was.

Caleb gives this long speech about helping someone who was- I don't know I wasn't paying attention to the speech. I was thinking of what they were saying earlier- make me happy? Are they trying to Set me up with another girl? They would know I am not interested.

When he finally opens the door, Cara is in there wailing. Sitting on a bed.around the rooms are pictures of Tris and us, and their are dictionaries And paper that scatter the ground.

"Where is she?" Caleb asks

When Cara looks him in the eyes she starts to cry again "I was monitoring her and when my back was turned she was looking at a picture dictionary and when-when I-I looked back at her, s-she aw-was g-gone!" Cara wails

"Who?" we all ask

Caleb looks at us "Tris. Tris is alive."
