Chapter 20
"Stage one consists of physical training," I say in my instructor mode. "Test your bodies to the breaking point. You will handle guns, throw knifes, and learn a few kicks and punches."
First I demonstrates how to handle a gun. I eyes the bullseye, took a deep breath, and fired.
I then signaled for them to do it.
Evana copied my stance and mimed what I did. She hit the ring closest to the bullseye. My eyebrows shot up, I was inpressed. Some dauntless born couldn't even do that good during initiation.
My eyes then adverted towards Tony who obviously wasn't paying attention to my demonstration. Just as she struggled Eric came up to her and fixed her position. She glanced at me and smirked before 'accidentally' rubbing up against him.
This of corse made my blood boil as a wave of sadness flossed over me. I turned to look at Four who was staring at Eric in anger. When he glanced at me I shook my head, meaning to just leave it.
After Tony had gotten slightly better we worked with throwing knifes. Four and I each took one and stood in front of our own targets. Four first threw his knife, which successfully landed on the Bulls eye.
I focused all my attention on the target. I blocked out every emotion that u was feeling at the moment. I blocked out Evana, Tony, Four...Eric. Taking a deep breath, I positioned me feet and threw the knife with ease. Hit dead center.
"Anyone can do that," Tony scoffed. I rolled my eyes. "Then you try," I tell her while handing her the knife, trying with all my will not to stab her with it.
She snatched the knife from my hand and strut towards the target.
She attempted to mirror my stance and positioned the knife.
Tony threw to hard, resulting at the knife to wiz past the targets, towards the widow which shattered in millions of pieces. I stiffened my laughter unlike Four and Evana.
"Well," I say as I turn to Eric for the first time since last nights events. "This leader," I say while motioning to myself. "Is not paying for that damage."
He smirked. I glanced away from him and to Tony who looked infuriated.
"This was rigged!" She shouts while getting up in my face. She was very slim and tall making her tower in my mere 5'6 height.
I raised an eyebrow at the lunatic in front of me.
"How?" I questioned.
"Obviously you put something on the knife which you so happen to hand to me," she says while looking over at Eric for help. He only looked away, finding a sudden interest in the door. Ha, beat that girly, I smirked and mentally hi-fived myself.
Tony sighs in frustration before a bell suddenly rang. I looked at Four confused. Since when was there a bell in the training room, I mentally ask.
"Lunch Time," he announces.
As fast as I possibly could I sprinted out of the room towards Noor's apartment. I knocked on the door and patiently waited. Today Evana was going to tell us something about Eric and Tony. The hidden piece of the puzzle.
The door suddenly opened to reveal Evana. I looked at her shock.
"How did you make it here so fast?" I asked cautiously. She smirked, I almost cringed at how much she looked like Eric when she did that.
"Short cut," she states. I nodded, letting the subject drift away.
I entered the apartment and plopped down on the couch next to Noor. We waited for what Evana was going to tell us as patiently as we could.
She then started...
Surprisingly, Teddy and Evana were friends. At first she was cautious because having a friend older than you was very uncommon in Erudite, but that apparently changed to the point where Evana considered Teddy as her own sister.
Now ...the reason why Tony called Eric 'her boyfriend'
During Eric's time in Erudite, he had a few...flings. It's just that this fling thought she was given a diamond ring.
In a way it was an obsession. Everyday Tony would come around their house to visit Eric to his annoyance. She basically used her sister and Evana to get close to Eric. And I'm guessing that Teddy has a tiny crush on him too.
That was...until one day,
"Possibly a week before Eric transferred Tony told Eric that she's possibly pregnant with Eric's child," Evana says.
Noor and I's jaws literally dropped to the ground.
Well sh¡t...
"But, she not...is she?" I asked slowly, trying to process what had just happened. Evana shook her head and have me a reassuring smile.
"As much sh¡z my brother has put you through, I can see that you still care for him. Also, the so called fling happened two years ago. But you never know. Tony is a very clever girl. She's also very manipulative." Evana says.
I nodded and looked down at my converse. I was immensely lost for words. Heartbroken at last nights events. Is there a thing as mentally tired? It is now...
Suddenly my pager started to beep. I slipped it out from my pocket and looked at the blinking screen.
1 video message from:
Zeekee ^_^
I tapped on the picture and squinted down at the footage.
My heart plummeted into my stomach.
The shaky video was of two initiates. One I could tell was a transfer while the other had bright purple hair.
The initiate with the purple hair was Sam.
I glanced at the attached message.
Come to the chasm, NOW!!
I looked up at the two girl who looked at me warily.
"We got to move. Now"
_________________________________________________________
"No, no, no, no, no," I muttered as the three of us ran towards the chasm. Members and initiates started to run back and forth like chickens with their heads cut off.
My heart palpitates as I searched the crowd for any familiar faces.
Once again my pager beeped.
Max: Meet us at the chasm
Stormy: I'm already here
Max: look up
My head shot up to meet a pair of grey eyes that would make me weak to my knees. I kept my face void of emotion as I glanced at Max who was beside Eric.
"I'll be back," I told Noor and Evana. Noor sent a glare at Eric before leading Evana away.
I glanced behind the two leaders in front of me, dauntless men where pulling the rope that was falling into the chasm.
A sudden lump formed in my throat.
Someone jumped, or fell in.
"Who fell?" I asked while staring at the body bag that was being prepared.
"An initiate," Eric says bluntly. I rolled my eyes.
"I know that," I spat, starting to get irritated. "did they identify who jumped?" I ask while pushing all my emotions towards the back of my body. As much as Eric had hurt me in the past 24 hours, I couldn't care less.
But you do, a voice told me in the back of my mind.
All I wanted to know was whether or not my baby brother was safe or not.
Max shook his head in response to my question. Suddenly a low voice was heard behind me.
"Wanna go somewhere where we can take your mind off of things, Eric?" Tony asked.
I couldn't bare to look at them and gazed towards the chasm almost making me want to jump because of her words.
"Can't you see I'm busy?!" Eric spat harshly at her.
Her face immediately went from confident to fearful. The lab rat then scurried off towards her rat-like lair.
We continued to wait for the body to be lifted. A mess of blonde hair suddenly caught my eyes as the owner scurried off. As fast as I could I sprinted off towards the person.
As I rounded the corner of the hallway I heard a sniff.
What the heck?
I peaked the corner to see Tris sitting against the wall with her head in her hands. I walked up to her and crouched down to her height.
"Tris," I say softly. Her head snaps up, her expression showed that she had gotten startled.
"What's wrong?" I asked her.
"It's all my fault," she muttered over and over while shaking her head.
"Tris." I called sternly, forcing her to look at me. I whipped the tears away from her face.
"It's all my fault. If I had just forgiven Al, then he wouldn't of jumped," she explained as her voice cracked at the end. I engulfed her into a hug and soothed her until sobs subdued.
"Thanks Three," she says. I was confused at first until I realized that the transfers only new me as 'three'
"I heard what happened yesterday," she says after a comfortable silence. I looked at her confused, signaling her to elaborate.
"Eric is a jerk. He should at least explain, he dosent deserve you." Tris told me while looking down when she mentioned the last part. She must of thought it was rude to say such things. I cracked a small smile at her and led her back to the Chasm where a crowd was now formed. I told Tris to go with her friends, she nodded and thanked me before leaving.
"STORMY!" A voice shouted. I turned around to be face to face with a heavily panting Luke.
"What's happened?" I asked concerned.
"It's Sam."
That's all I needed to hear. I sprinted towards the hospital along side Luke.
I just hope Sam is ok...
______________________________________
Suddenly I felt as though someone slapped me, and then took the pain away leaving an uncomfortable feeling.
My eyes furthered before becoming fully aware of my surroundings.
Memories from the past hour flooded through my mind.
Sam
Hospital
Chasm
Dead transfer
I groaned before slamming my head into my hands that were propped onto my knees. As I shuffled my feet there was a small crib liking sound. I looked down to see a two small pieces of paper.
I read the first one...
Tomorrow
F.H
22:00 a.m
I scoffed when I saw '22:00 a.m' it wasn't even a time. Basically it meant tomorrow at the faction headquarters at 8:00 am.
I then read the second one...
