"How are you so good at this?" Peter asks cleaning himself off.

"I've been practicing." I say fixing half my hair into a pony tail.

"Initiates." A tall Dauntless calls from a ledge. He has these gorgeous blue eyes and the most artistic maze tattoo on his forearms.

We all crowd around blue eyes. I hear people whispering about what's over the ledge. Apparently blue eyes heard them because he said, "I don't know."

"Then let's find out." I say pushing through the crowd. Blue eyes stares at me, most likely because I was Abnegation.

I step up on the ledge, and I jump. While I fall, the air surrounds me, embracing me into a hug.

My body lands on something that feels like a net. "First Jumper, Welcome to Dauntless." A voice that sounds all to familiar, Tobias. I feel the net pull down to one side. My anger boiling inside me. I start to roll to the side of the net that is at an angle. "Evelyn!?!" Tobias says with shock in his voice.

"It's Evie." I say with all my anger being professed in those two words.

"Why are you here, I thought you wanted to transfer to Erudite?" Tobias asks with concern in his eyes.

"Marcus told me that's where you transfered to, and I didn't want to see you. That's why I'm here and not in Erudite." I spat at him.

He looks at the blonde girl that has been standing next to us. "Lauren, take her to the Infirmary and have her checked out."

"Yes, Four." She says nodding her head and leading me to the Infirmary. I don't talk to her, I stay silent with a grimace on my face. 'He's here this isn't fair, I hate him, he left me with Marcus. For doing that I cannot forgive him.' I think to myself.

Lauren takes a turn, into what must be the infirmary. "Anne" she calls out, and a girl in her early 20's comes into view. "Four wants her to be checked." She says pointing to me.

"Okay, dear, come sit." Anne says patting on an empty bed. "Use these to cover yourself up." She hands me a hospital gown and turns around. I quickly undress and use the gown to cover myself.

"I'm covered." I mumble.

"Okay then let's have a look at..." She trails off when she sees the scars on my arms and legs. "What are those from?" She says pick up my arms and looking them over.

"Scars."

"I know but from what." She clarifies.

"My father." I mumble.

She turns to Lauren and says, "Get Max and Eric." Lauren nods and heads to get them. Anne turns back to me and asks, "Do you have more, if so show me?" I nod and lift my shirt, revealing a large scar that wraps from my belly button to my spinal cord. "How did you get this?"

"My father used a fire axe, starting from my belly button to my spine. He left me there on the floor, so I grabbed my sewing kit and gave my self stitches." Gesturing to the stitch scars.
