"Four! Look. It's their flag."

"Tris, that was really good thinking. A good strategy. And that's one of the points of this game. To help you develop plans, strategies," Four replies. That made him sound just like my instructor, not my... whatever he is, or we are.

"Thanks," I say with a blush.

"We better go."

"Okay," I reply, and I have another girl thought: Really Tris? Okay? Is that the best you can come up with? You're not Hazel and Gus. Come on Tris! Four flashes a quick smile then starts stepping down. It's silent the rest of the time we're going down, but I'm still thinking about him. What if this doesn't mean anything. I mean, he's my instructor. Wouldn't that be weird? Wouldn't people accuse him of favoritism if they found out that we're... whatever we are? I really don't know. But I hope we can be something.

Eventually we're all the way down. We jog back to the Carousel where everyone is waiting (impatiently) for us. People are mumbling things like:

"Come on we have a game to win?Where are they?"

"They need to hurry up! Gosh, what are they even doing?" When they see us coming, they burst out with questions.

"What took you so long?!"

"What were you doing?"

"Do you care about winning the game or what?" Four looks annoyed.

"Guys, quiet. While you were over here arguing, wasting time, Tris climbed up a Ferris Wheel and found where the other teams flag is," Four says sharply. They all look to me.

"Now, since you guys don't seem to have a plan and Tris already proved that she has good ideas, what should we do Tris?" Four asks.

"Okay. Their flag is at the top of that-" I say pointing to where the flag is located.

"-Building. So two groups. Defense and offense," I finish. We divide into our groups and those of us on offense start running. Chris and Uriah are on that team with me, and Four is coming with us. We have our guns ready at our sides. I can now hear Eric's team creeping along.

"On three we shoot,"Four tells us. He waits a moment then,

"One, two, three!" We shoot and Eric's team comes into view. There's an explosion of pink, green, orange, and blue. But Four is shielding me, and he knows what he's doing for himself too, so neither of us gets hit. We start running to a place where we'll be hidden. Suddenly, Eric is in front of us.

And he has his gun ready.
