OMG! 99 views!😱😱! Can we get to 100?

Tris POV

I'm not too nervous, there are only five other people here who are trying out for the job. The Dauntless leasers will accept three. One will go with Tobias and the other two for the Dauntless born. Obviously I will be the one to work with Four if I get in.

All I have to do now is pass this one test; just correct some younger kid's combat skills. We only have 10 min before they go into he fighting ring. Then, the top three kid's instructors will get the job.

"Tris, you have Jack," shouts Eric from across the room.

A small thin boy waves and walks toward me. He's about my hight. I hope that he will still be strong, taking into account his willowy body structure. He's probably around the age of 9 or 10. He has long brown hair that comes down just past his ears, and bright hazel eyes. I'm sure he's going to be some Dauntless prodigy when he's older.

"Hi!" I say bending down a little and putting my hands on my knees so that we are about the same hight. "My name is Tris, I will be working with you today to improve your combat skills. Do you know how this works?"

He shakes his head but doesn't lose eye contact. He's definitely not a shy kid. I hope he won't be trouble.

"Ok, so I'm going to watch you throw a few punches and then I will help you improve by giving you some pointers." I explain, "By the end of the day, if you are one of the top three kids in this room after you fight, then I will get my job to train initiates. Sounds ok?"

"Yep. My mom says I'm a natural fighter, so I hope I can help you get your job!" He says it with a wide grin on his face. I'm really starting to like this kid. He seems so nice.

Jack immediately walks towards the punching bag. And starts attacking like there's no tomorrow. He's good- really good. But he's not light in his feet, and his knees are locked. My eyes move a little higher, his core muscles are tight, perfect. He hold his shoulder a little too high up, like he's tense. But other than that, he seems perfect.

"Jack come over here." I say.

He jogs a few steps toward me, panting already. "Yeah?" he asks.

I point out some stuff like he's knees, shoulders, and that he should stand on the balls of his feet instead of his heels.

Once he goes back to the punching bag, he nails almost everything.

"Wow! He's really good!" I think to myself, "I have a really good chance of winning this." I look down to check my watch, we have five minutes left.

I look around the room, there's five other kids going wild at the punching bags. They are all tall and wide, broad shoulders. I hope Jack's figure will give him an advantage instead of a disadvantage. Some have even started kicking, I haven't seen Jack kick yet, I should.

"Jack!" Give a kick!" I command him, but not to harsh, just firm enough that he'll listen.

He lifts his right leg and rotates his hips to so a side kick. He hits the punching bag,

And falls.
