Friends and Factions

Meet The Girls

Chapter 1

10pm, Saturday

Claire POV

I sit on the cold metal bench of the training room with hot sweat dripping down my face. My water bottle sits in front of me but my trainers voice is the back of my head telling me to feel the ache and pain of fighting when ever possible. I push myself off the bench and grab a fan of knives, I throw one after the other all of them landing in the center of the target. I then grab a gun a shoot bullet after bullet each one making a hole threw the center of the target. As I'm about to go over to the strength section the loud door creeks open reveling my Dad smiling at me.

"Claire we didn't see you for dinner how long have you been in here."

"Sense 11:00am,why?"

"It's now 10:00pm you have done enough come on your mom and I need to go somewhere tonight so we can't worry about you being late for curfew"

"But.............."

" No Claire it's time to go"

So with that I grab my gym bag a little annoyed and followed my dad out the door. Yes your probity thinking what the heck is this girl doing. Well to answer it simply I'm a child prodigy. I got this record when I was 12 years old but I still need to work for it! But ya I'm a 14 year old Dauntless prodigy following in the footsteps of my parents, my siblings have a lot of records set here but I beat there prodigy corse so I'm the highest prodigy in dauntless, minus my parents.

My Dad leads me through the crowd of people, which isn't really a problem considering they all move out of the way when they see him. I don't know if you guessed it yet but, that's right my Dad is the head leader of Dauntless; Tobias Eaton. After this war that happened my Dad, my Mom and my godmother Tori became the new leaders. The old leaders were killed so I never met them. So it's kind of a blessing and a curse to have your parents be the Dauntless leaders, I used to be treated different because people used to think I was only a prodigy because of my parents but they also get to help me with becoming a prodigy.

We live in a apartment building farthest from the compound. They are the nicest houses in the Dauntless compound. There are 4 floors, one for each family that lives in it. We live at the top floor so I entered the elevator and rode to the top floor. No one was home yet so I trudged over to my room. I have a big room with a attached bathroom and walk in closet. My walls are black and my floor is dark wood. I have a queen bed that has is covered in purple blankets, my desk is purple and my shelves lined with trophies. Although my favorite part is the wall covered in pictures of my friends. I get ready for bed and fall asleep instantly.

Chapter 2

10pm Saturday (Same Day)

Maddy POV

I'm jolted awake by my sister smacking me in the shoulder. I sit up and feel my back crack over and over. the hard plastic of the chair feels stiff and familiar. I look around at the black and white tiles and scales on podiums and remember what happened. I fell asleep again in the middle of the stupid weekly debates that Candor faction leaders requirer we go to. Now if you haven't guessed I'm a Candor, and I hate it. My biggest strength is intelligence yet here I am listening to old people debate about the food we eat in a black and white debate chamber.

I silently slip under my chair then start crawling to the exit doors. As soon as I get out I start running to the compound doors. Once I reach the doors I shove them open and keep running until I reach the center of the city, that's where slip into an abandon building and go up to the top floor, there I have a hidden notebook and pencil. I start to write and loose track of time as the window shows the sky going from day to night.
