Life is full of games

Chapter Six

I wake up to Four's voice. "I want everyone in the pit. 2 minutes."

While everyone starts leaving, I lay back down. Does he really think we are going to be ready in 2 minutes, I don't think so. I rub my eyes, but keep them shut.

"Sis? Are you coming?" Genevieve says, I sleepily get out of bed and take off my pyjamas.

"Yeah, go." I say with my eyes closed. I put on my clothes and go to the bathroom to wash my face. When I go back into the room. The room is empty. "Cool. Late for my first training."

I rush to the pit. I one: break Four's sentence two: get all eyes on me. I try to blend in the crowd not trying to get attention.

"So there are two stages of training-" Four says. But eric stops him.

"Initiate, you're late. You know what that means?" Eric asks me, my hands shake. "Come."

"Eric-" Four tried to speak but eric interrupts him.

"No. Everyone follow me" Eric says and starts walking but stops again.

"What the hell is this? This is not primary school. You can't punish her because she's late. What do you have in mind? Let her stand in the corner on one leg or are you going to call her parents?" Genevieve says, to clarify i'm not standing alone. I watch Four as he is trying to tell me with his mouth to stay calm and not to panic. But I can't, Eric is going to kill me, how am I supposed to stay calm?

"Go stand in the corner on one leg now." Genevieve does what he says. "Stand there untill I say it's enough. And if you give up. I will shoot your leg and if I shoot your leg. You will be factionless."

My eyes widen and my whole body starts to shake. Eric walks over to me and takes my arm very painfully. He drags me with him, Followed by the rest.

Genevieve

I watch as Eric walks away, holding Tris her arm tight. The group follows Eric and I turn to Four.

"Genevieve, it's time come with me." He says and he walks after them. He stops at his place. "Now."

I follow behind him and we reach the end of the group quickly. I push myself through the crowd and walk inches away from Eric and Tris. Suddenly he stops and pushes Tris off the chasm, but he manages to hold her hand letting her dangle over the edge of the bridge. My heart stops, I hear some whispers from the initiates behind me. I can't do anything, if I help her Eric will kill me. She has to make it, come on Tris you can do it.

"Grab the rail." Eric says and he let go of her hand. Tris groans out of pain, her hands change from normal to white. "You got three options, hang there and i'll forget what you've done. Fall and die or give up. But if you give up, you're out."

Tris groans, her eyes pause at a place behind me. When I turn my head to see what she's looking at, I see Four walking away. Eric finally walks away and Christina and me walk over to Beatrice to help her up.

Eric is a dick.
