        As I quickly get ready for the 11:30 train, I notice the signature in the corner of the note. It says "Rylan" No it couldn't be. I shake the thought from my head and grab my jacket and my knife. (Just in case) I look at the clock and notice it is 11:21. I quickly jog out of my apartment and run to the tracks just in time for the 11:30 train. I pump my legs into a run, quickly grab the handle of the train car, and swing myself into the train car. I slouch down against some freight and wait for my stop. 

         As soon as I see Erudite lights, I get up and prepare myself for the jump. I jog then run until I get to the edge of the car entance and leap off of the edge. I land on my feet, but have to jog a few steps before I skid to a stop. I glance at my surroundings and notice Erudite headuarters immediately. Then the wind picks up around me. I pull my jacket closer into my body. After what seems forever, I glance towards my watch, and see that it is 11:58. I shake my head. It's going to be a long 2 minutes. When midnight rolls around, I hear footsteps. I look up and see Erudite blue clothes, and specticals. I reach for my knife, but then I hear their voice. "I come alone, so you do not need to pull that knife from your back pocket." I slowly take my hand out of my back pocket intrigued. "Now that I can see that you trust me, the names Rylan, and I wanted to talk to you about your presence and my presence." I pop my eyebrow up. "Okay Rylan, my name is Krissky, and what about our presence?" I ask. "I already know your name... but something has been thrown around in Erudite, that I do not like. In order for me to tell you about it, I need to tell you about us." He says standing with his arms crossed on his chest. "Okay stalker much.... and what about us?" I say questionly. He chuckles. "You still have your charm sis." Rylan says shaking his head. It takes a few minutes for my head to comprehend what he just said, then I exploded. "What do you mean sis? I don't have a brother. Especially one from Erudite." I spit harshly. "Well, father didn't tell you. I am Rylan Eaton in Dauntless, but in Erudite, I am Rylan Parker. I am the same age as you, but mother sent us off to different places. You were Dauntless with dad, and I was to Erudite. I found out about you and me because I had to search your name up in Erudite headquarters. I found you, dad, mom, and then I found my name. I didn't think that it was me at first, but then I put a lot of research into it and found out that I am your big brother by 3 minutes." Everything he says just sounds like gibberish. I couldn't prosess everything all at once. "I..I....I have a brother?" I ask more to myself than to him, but he answers anyway. "Yes and here I am. I also have to warn you about whats happening." He says a little to quickly, like i'm a ticking bomb. "What do you mean?" I ask slowly, so I could understand what I was saying. "Erudite knows that you are divergent Krissky. They believe that you are the most powerful divergent ever. They are trying to look for you so they can do tests to prevent divergence all together since you are the most powerful." I put my head in my hands. "What do you mean I am the most powerful divergent?" I ask. "You have the power of all 5 factions Krissky. You have the Bravery of a Dauntless. You have the selflessness of an Abnegation. You have the intelligiance of an Erudite. You have the honesty of a Candor. Finally, you have the kindness of an Amity. You have all of that in you." He says while pointing at me and coming closer. In the moonlight I can see his features. He has mom's piercing blue eyes where I have dad's dark blue eyes. He has mom's blonde hair, where I have dad's dark hair. He shares all mom's characteristics, where I share all dad's characteristics. "So what Alex said is true." I whisper to myself hoping that my brother didn't hear. "What? who is this Alex?" He asks more screams. "Alex is one of my Initiates. I have to get going..." I say. "Well just a reminder I am always watching, and if you need my help, signal by doing something an Erudite would do." He says and hugs me before saying "I have missed my little sis." and with that, he leaves just like he came, from no where. 

        It's a quick ride home. I'm happy it is, because I couldn't stay on that train anymore. I felt like the walls were closing in on me. I ran all the way to my apartment, and once I walk inside, I jumped right on my bed and fell asleep with the thought of what all just happened. 

        *Next Morning*

                I wake and start getting ready for todays training. When I step into the shower, everything that happened lastnight, flooded into my head. I shake it from my head and turn off the water. I get ready and head down towards the training room. I grab the schedule to make sure what was happening today wasn't happening, but with my luck, Fighting eachother is what we are doing today. My worst nightmare. As soon as I put the schedule down, everyone starts rushing in. I look at my initiates, making sure everyone is here. Everyone is, but him. I push the thought into the back of my mind and say "I hope everyone got a good night sleep, because today we are fighting eachother." I turn to face the board that already had names written on it. "Alex vs Chris, Riley vs Parker, Tyler vs Aaron, Lexi vs Cleo, Vanessa vs Ava, and Kyra, you are in luck because today you don't get to fight anyone." I say each name like it's a threat. "Unless of course, Alex doesn't show up, then you would have to fight Chris." I say, standing with my arms across my chest. All of a sudden Alex comes rushing in. "Sorry i'm late." He says, rubbing the back of his neck. "No problem, just catch up. You will be fighting Chris today." I say with the straightest face. "Now, get to the arenas with your fighting partner, and let the match begin!" I scream. Everyone rushes to their stations and starts fighting. I walk up and down the fighting arenas and watch everyone fight at least twice before someone surrenders or cannot fight anymore. I stop at one particular. Lexi and Cleo's. Both of them are very good fighters, and won't give up until Lexi slams her fist into Cleo's face. Cleo falls to the floor with blood gushing down her face. "Why do we even have to do this?" She asks staring at me. I bend next to her and say "Because Cleo I push you until you break, just to see how hard I have to press. Plus you have to learn how to defend yourself, and the only way to do that is to learn from others. You want to know pain? You haven't even seen it yet. This is the easiest part, so I suggest that you get used to the pain and deal with it." I stand up and take her hand, helping her up from the ground. I realize everyone stopped fighting. "Did I tell you to stop?" I ask staring at the others. Some have bruises and some have blood gushing from their face's. I shake my head "I take that back, training is over." With that I storm out of the room before anyone see's the blood running from my nose. I rush to the nearest bathroom and look at myself in the mirror. The red liquid runs down my lips. When ever I am way to stressed, my nose starts to bleed but it hasn't bled this much in a long time. I grabbed a paper towel and wipped the blood from my nose and quickly checked myself in the mirror, before throwing the papertowel away in the trash can. I took a deep breath before walking out the door and making my way towards the cafeteria. I was hungry. I hadn't eaten all day. I walked into the cafeteria to see Ashley running up to me. "Oh my gosh 5! Where have you been?" She asks. "I'm fine, I just had a little nose bleed, and no, before you ask, I didn't get punched in the face or hurt in any way." I say as we walk over to my table."Oh okay. I was worrying about my little trainer!" She says and winks while messing with my hair. I give her a death stare and she just laughs. I sit down next to her and grab a piece of cake from the center of the table. "5, the only thing you eat is cake! Eat something else..." Ashley says playfully. I smirk at her and say "Well, who couldn't eat our cake? So, I might as well get it before it is gone." I look at her and pick up my fork and stick it in my cake. Then, I shove it in my mouth. She laughs and takes the plate away from me. My eyes go wide and I slap her hand playfully. She puts the cake back infront of me and puts her hands up like she surrenders. I continue shoving the cake in my mouth before I get an overwhelming sinsation through out my body. My vision goes blury, before I faint.
