I zoned out a little, I was waiting for Peter or Colton to jump and occupy my boredom. Sadly, Tobias aka now known as four   has to leave to pick up the other initiats.

" Ahhh"

Peter fell on the net and begin blinking rapidly. He looked like a lost puppy, I couldn't help but chuckle.

Four finally dragged him off the net by his ankle.

" Name?" Tobi asked in a bored tone. Some things never change.

"Peter"

" Welcome to dauntless... FIFTH JUMPER .. PETER!"

I moved to the side to give some space to sit. He launched himself at the poor bench and sighted.

" Took you long enough" I told him teasingly.
" Yeah well not all of us have guts like you" he genuinely said, a wave of pride swelled over me.

" Mhm.. by the way the terminator didn't look pleased with what you said and- " I cut him before he could finish.

" The what now?"

" You know that big scary dude that told us to jumb let's just call him " terminator" from now on" he waved his hand in the air and them make a gun sound which caused him to from the bench. Poor floor.

"Well I could careless of what he thinks" I offered my arm and helped him up. He literally crushed my arms. That guy got muscles.

" Well just take care of what you do around him he doesn't look like someone you want to mess with" he said with a shrug.

" Okay. But if he annoyed me he will have to face me" I said smirking.

" You do know that he is a leader and could get you kicked out right?"
"Meh, I wanna see him try" I shrugged my shoulder showing that I don't care.

I have tolerated too much pain and threats by my parents to be scared of the so called " terminator" or whatever his name is. I came here to show everyone who I am and to prove my parents wrong.

Colton finally jumped. I think he had to wait for all the transfers so he could jump. He was the first dauntless born to jump.

I watched him bounce a few times on the net before four finally pulled him off.

He made his way towards me with a grin splattered in his face.

"Well that was unexpected" Colton sat on the other side of the bench besides me.

Me and Peter nodded in agreement.

"You know Colton, for a second I thought they were trying to get rid of us and makes it look like an accident " I jokingly told him while putting my hand on his left shoulder.

" Ahh..hehe yeah, you're probably right... Ahh and by the way it's just Cole now" he said the last part excitedly.

" Mmm.. good choice man" Peter told him." Yeah it's pretty cool coole" I chuckled," you see what I did here I said cool and coole as your new name" I kept giggling like a six years old would.

"Yeah yeah we get it prettyyy funny  unfortunately I forgot to laugh" Cole said in an annoyed tone.

The three of us stared at each other before we broke into laughing.

I looked over the net and saw that guy that I talked back to bouncing on the net, four offered his arm,but he jumped and passed him like he didn't see him, interesting.

" Ohh you better lay low, Eric looked pretty pissed after you talked back to him.. believe me, you don't want to get on his bad side" Cole was glancing at Eric with so much hate like they were archenemies, a chill ran down my spine that was the second time someone warn me about him.

I caught him staring at me with an unemotional expression. Peter was right, he does look like one of those robot terminators you find in movies.

I raised my eyebrow to tell him "what", he still didn't say a word,so I rolled my eyes and joined the rest in the big circle they made around four.

" My name is Four, I am one of your instructors  me and Eric will be training the transfers, the dauntless born will go with lauren" four titled his head to woman standing beside him.

" Now there's three stages of training. Stage 1 is physical we push your body to your breaking point, stage 2 you'll learn how to shoot a gun and use knives and 3 is emotional..." Eric said while taking small steps, marching army style, he stopped at a chart with all our names beside a grey empty circle.

" You see this chart, your life depends on it here in dauntless, you'll be trained separately from the dauntless born, but you'll be ranked together-"

"Why are we ranked?" An erudite transfer cut Eric midsentance.

"well the ranks tell you which job you get and it also determine who get cut-" again before Eric could finish his sentence a candor transfer asked,

"What happens to the people who get cut?"

" Well there is no going back to your family,so you'll be factionless " Eric said with a wicked smile as he saw everyone goes pal, well everyone except me and Peter.

" Why weren't we told this?" A candor girl asked angerly.

" Why? Would you have chosen differently ? Out of fear? Well if  that is the case then your place isn't here, we don't tolerate coweredness in dauntless " Eric said his voice getting louder with every word.

Everyone start muttering about how this isn't fair and some even begin calling Eric colorful names, me on the other hand stayed silent and watch everyone. observing who is going to be my competition.
" if you are really one of us then you shouldn't be afraid to fall,
You chose us now we get to choose you" Eric said in the most authoritative voice I have ever heard.

" if you are really one of us then you shouldn't be afraid to fall,You chose us now we get to choose you" Eric said in the most authoritative voice I have ever heard

The place fell into silence, but four finally broke it.

" Come on let's get you to your tour"

Everyone start moving, but my eyes where fixed on the ranking chart, I won't be factionless, I won't fail, I wanna be the first.

I am going to be the first.
