Uriah scowls at all of the initates, and clears his throat. "Um yeah so next the intelectual stuff comes... along with eliminations... yay." Everyone looks about to puke. jake tightens his grip on dahlia's hand, and her eyes shine with tears. we make eye contact, me masking my fear, acting confident for her benifit. I direct my attention to Uriah. Four walks in the room, and unmasks the leaderboard. I go from the bottom to the top... It takes forever but i see my name finally... At the very top. what? I look at uriah, and he flashes me a thumbs up. Uriah clears his throat, and shouts, "OKAY! SETTLE DOWN!" we all look at him, with wide eyes. "Please, if you will, people are getting booted now." We all stand in a line, because he directs us to. "First to last with your numbers please." hE walks to the back of the line. The points at a girl at the back. "goodbye." he says. then points at a boy, and girl in front of them. "Goodbye." then he stops, and i see the conflict: Dahlia is next. No. No. Please dont, Uriah." I make eye contact with him. he walks away, not eliminating her. "okay. Now we will all join with dauntless born, and go through our fear landscape. What you need to femember: To get out of the landscape: Try to calm down... you need to slow your heart pace... The serum locates the part of your brain that detects fear." We are left to our own devices till the dauntless get here, so I immediately run to Cam, and Dahlia. dahlia looks completely HORRIFIED, and is shaking in her boots. "Dahlia, you okay?" i ask, resting a hand on her shoulder. she takes a shaky breath, and nods. Cam and I exchange easy glances, and she flips har hair over her shoulder. She came in second- she doesn't have to worry- except for the fear landscape. i saw her face when he announced it- she looked like she was gonna puke- no lie.the dauntless born all stride in, buff, and clothed in black. "Now all dauntless born... And faction transfers will all be part of one leader board. I look at him like: Are you serious? He just shrugs and smirks. "Follow me, children!" We all trail behind him in a long line down a corridor. "First up- Sky. yup, follow me...' And I enter a dark room, and am led to a chair. Here we go.
