<Tris's POV>

Four and I lead the transfers to their room. I watch as Monique looks around her, gazing at every flaw in this room. Four tells them to meet at the pit at 7:00am tomorrow. Then we both leave.

"I need to talk to you," he mumbles once we leave the room. I nod and he takes my hand and pulls me up the staircase that leads to the roof.

"What are we doing up here?" I ask in obvious confusion. He points out towards some Erudite near the Dauntless compound.

"There, they have been sending guns in since yesterday." Worry rushes through me. Since when have the Erudite supplied us?

"Are they supplying us?" He shakes his head.

"I want you to stay in my apartment from now on, I don't trust the Erudite handling guns near us," Tobias tells me. I nod and he takes my hand and brings us back to his place.

/------/------/------/------/

After we have eaten lunch an dinner with our friends I am extremely tired. Four practically carries me back to our apartment. Once we are inside his cool apartment, he takes of his t-shirt and jeans and changes into just sweatpants. I go in the bathroom and change into my pajamas and throw my hair in a messy ball on the top of my head. When I walk out Tobias's eyes are closed already and he is tucked tightly in the sheets. I quietly walk over to the bed side and lie I front of him.

Slowly Tobias wraps his strong arms around me. In his arms I am safe and warm as I take in his scent of metal and sweets. It's honestly the smell that puts me to sleep.

/------//-----///----////---/

I wake up to a Tobias shaking my shoulder slightly. "Time for the first day of training." I smile for I am finally doing what I can to help Dauntless. I jump up and get ready. Four just watches me smiling.

"What?" I ask.

"I like watching you when your happy," he replies simply.

"No time for lovey dovey stuff lets go!" I yell like a giddy child. We rush out of the door and into the pit. I put on a blank face because the initiates start to show up.

"Alright listen up, you are all trained separately from the dauntless born. There are several stages of training, physical, then mental. Follow us to the training room," I yell forcefully. Finally I feel in charge. Four and I have agreed to hide our relationship from the initiates, just in case. My only problem with this is that Ange girl is going to try to get with Four.

"Alright ten minutes of training then, our first fights begin. Go!" Eric yells. I glare at him.

"What the hell, that isn't enough time to learn!" I shout at him once the initiates walk away.

"Well they have to learn to learn fast," he replies, not even looking at me like I'm some sort of disease. I walk away and go to observe. Monique isn't strong enough, I can already tell. Unfortunately Ange does have a lot of strength. I ignore Ange though and walk to Monique.

I watch her throw punches at the bag. "What do you need?" She asks nervously.

"Nothing just watching."

"Look I know I can't make it, I'm abnegation there's no way I'll make it." I look at her with pity. She doesn't believe.

"Well I think you'll do fine, I would know." I walk away after that comment because I saw Eric glaring at me. I go and stand next to Tobias again.

After the ten minutes are up Eric decides who will fight first.

"Ange and Monique." I stand there in disbelief. He knows I like Monique. He wants her to hurt. My blood boils. I would've punched him in the face if Four didn't take my hand. I breathe in as the two girls start to circle each other.

Monique throws the first punch, but it just skims Ange's shoulder. I cringe at what comes next. Ange throws Monique to the ground. Once the punching starts it doesn't stop. I try so hard not to join in the fight and rip Ange to pieces. I cringe and can't help but look away.

I hear Monique scream and that's what puts me over the edge. I turn back around and yell,"That's enough!" Four looks at me and shakes his head. Eric glares at me and smirks. Ange doesn't stop throwing the punches.

I know I shouldn't, I know I could loose my job as a trainer, but I can't stand to watch it anymore. When I see Monique I see me when I was weak and it breaks my heart. I run into the fighting mats and throw Ange off of Monique.

"Tris!" I hear Four yell, but he sounds miles away. I go into defense mode and grab Monique and hold her with one arm. She is unconscious, Tobias comes up behind me and I hand Monique to him right before Ange can throw a punch. I smack her across the face and she stumbles back. I walk off the mats.

"Back to training initiates!" I shout. With that, I walk out of the room to find Tobias.

A/N wow...

Alright well in the next chapter some stuff is going to happen between Four and Tris.

Not to mention... The erudite with the guns...
