Candor or Dauntless (Fourtris Style!)

Fear Landscapes...Fun. (Not) {Part 3/3}

AN: Hi everyone, so due to the amount of comments and personal messages I have received from you guys (thanks!), I will be finishing this story with this chapter. Don't worry, there'll be a lot of action! The sequel's first chapter will be posted within a week, and I'll post an announcement on this story- so just keep checking on this story for the sequel's start! Thanks so much, and do read the author's note at the bottom for full recognition of everyone who has commented. I can't recognize everyone who has voted, because that would be over 400 names, but if you commented, your names will be down there! Thanks again, and I hope you enjoy this story's conclusion!

Tris POV
Max leaves to calculate the scores, and to prepare the slide that'll go up for the ranks. Tobias catches me from behind, and we hug each other. I'm glad training is over. I hope all of them make it! We have a surprise for the people who don't make it though...I hope it'll make them happy...Tobias kisses my forehead and says, "You get this little crinkle in your forehead when you are thinking and worrying at the same time. Did you know that?" I smirk and slap his shoulder.

"Come on, we have to get ready for the rank reveals! Let's go home and get dressed, we are leaders after all, so we should probably be formal."

He sighs, mutters something about looking like a penguin, and follows me out.

Ananya POV
Ohhhhh, I really hope I made it. I'm pacing back and forth in a new black and red skater dress with heels and curled hair when Pete comes up behind me and picks me up and sits me in a chair. I cock my eyebrow at him, challenging him. He raises his hands up high and says, "Please don't kill me. You were making me dizzy. Just calm down..."

I interrupt, "Of course, because making a faction with a high rank or getting an awful job isn't a scary part of my life and I totally shouldn't be nervous even though I probably screwed up everything from the physical mmph!"

I automatically relax as Pete cuts off my ramble with a kiss...yeah this is pretty relaxing. We surface and I say, "Can we just do that until our rankings come up?" He grins, and Brianne yells from somewhere behind me, "Hey break it up lovebirds!"

Brianne has great timing, doesn't she? Ughhhh.....

Brianne POV
I interrupt them, but I have a feeling Ananya will be after me for this. Assuming we both make it of course. I feel Ryker pick me up and sit me in a chair next to Ananya. He and Pete smirk, and they say together, "We will keep you calm until we leave for the rankings"

I raise my hand, "Can we not say the word 'leave'?"

Ananya smirks and says, "Well, we'll know in 10 minutes, won't we?"

Oh my dear God and everything that's good on this earth...we only have 10 minutes.

Ananya pulls me aside and says, "What were your fears? Tell me yours and I'll tell you mine." I tick them off on my fingers, "Being raped, being judged, living alone without love, heights, killing someone, watching my family die, and not fitting in"

Ananya squeals and screams, "You only had 7 too! Mine were not knowing the future, being humiliated, being out of control, being alone, killing an innocent person, losing my family, and being a disappointment to everyone and failing"

We forget the boys are still in the room, and as we turn to face them, we have to laugh. Pete looks completely ridiculous with his jaw dropped and his hands in his hair! And Ryker staggered backwards and sat down in a chair, looking blank. Ananya and I smirk at each other, walk over to our boyfriends and kiss them, knocking them out of their stupor. They say together, "7 FEARS?!" We nod, and walk out of the room, dragging them along. It's time for our rankings after all...

Tris POV
It's time for the scores, and I see the hopeful faces of all the trainees in the audience. I grab Four's hand, we nod at each other and I step up to the microphone, and start, "It's been another successful year training all of you initiates! It's been an honor for both Four and I. Only the best have a job in the compound, so be proud of you have. I'm very proud of all the initiates this year, and the way you exemplify Dauntless's belief: belief in ordinary acts of bravery. I saw that, and know that even though you might not have the best job, you are truly brave."

Someone from the audience screams, "Just tell us the scores already!" I look and see that it's Ananya- poor girl, she looks like she'll have a breakdown if I don't say it right now! Four chuckles and steps up to the microphone.

"Here are the rankings for this year's Dauntless initiates. Your rank and picture will flash on the screen and then join this list."

The Ranks:
1. Ananya and Brianne
2. Ryker
3. Pete
4. Jake
5. Austin
6. Wyatt
6. Brittany/Caylee
7. Aspen
8. Zander
9. Kesha
10. Raul/ Shay
11. Beckett
12. Carmela
13. Zuri
14. Kayden
15. Isaiah
16.Kira
17. Annalise
18. Ally

I hear two high squeals from the direction of Brianne and Ananya...they deserve the top rank....only 7 fears, just like me. And both their boys get to stay close to them...just like mine. I hear Tobias grab the mic one more time, and call for everyone's attention, what's he doing?

He says, "I wanted all of Dauntless to see what I'm going to do next, because this is the scariest thing I've ever had to do."

He turns to me and holds my small hands in his, and says, "Tris, your brought meaning back into my life. I was going to leave Dauntless before you came. You brought down my walls, and my world came crashing down the moment I met you. No matter what you think, you are the most beautiful person ever to me, and my life without you would be hell. I would rather jump in the Pit than let you out of my life. And so, scared for my life, I'd like to ask you a question, and it's yes or no, ok?" My eyes have misted up...

OH. MY. GOD. He is...he is...he's getting down on one knee...

"Tris, my fierce Six, will you marry me?" He looks just a little bit scared, as if I'd say no. All of Dauntless is holding their breath.

The tears spill, I nod, sobbing uncontrollably, and I fling myself at him, kissing him until I can't breathe. I hear cheers coming from Christina, Ananya, Brianne, Ryker, Pete, Will, Uriah, Zeke, and all of my other friends here. He opens the ring box and I gasp. It's a diamond surrounded by grey and blue precious stones in a bar setting. It's absolutely gorgeous! I hold my hand out for him to slip it on, but before he does, he shows me the inscription on the inside: "You are my sunshine". I break into renewed sobs, and hug him tightly. He says, "Now I'll always be able to look into your eyes, and you'll be able to see mine."

This is...without a doubt...the best initiation year and group ever. I like the sound of Mrs. Tobias Eaton...

AN: I hope you liked the ending! I've been gearing towards it for a while, if any of you caught the references earlier in other chapters. Like I said, I'll have the sequel up soon, so look forward to it! Thank you and here is the list of people who have commented on this story!
