Chapter Text
{Petal's POV}
I woke up to find the bed empty and the shower turning off, "Eric's up then" I thought to myself as the door to the bathroom opened,
"Hey, Babe." Eric says, stepping out of the bathroom, grabbing pieces of clothing as he walked towards her,
"Hey, you're up early!" I responded looking at the clock on the wall behind him, this causes him to laugh,
"You've forgotten already... The new kids are starting today. Four and I are going to meet them at the drop." I smile at the man in front of me,
"Have fun! Don't forget to scare them with the chasm!" He laughs and leans down to kiss my lips.
{Eric's POV}
I kiss her before standing up. Putting my shirt on I walk out of the front door and think about my own initiation...
... We jump off of the train walking over to a giant hole, a man stood in front of us scanning the crowd,
"Hello, I'm Max, one of the Dauntless leaders, the only way into Dauntless is behind me, who wants to go first?" He asks. A beautiful girl in Abnegation attire steps forward,
"I'll go!" she said timidly. I hear laughter behind me,
"Oh a Stiff, I think you're going to be factionless first." they say, as she steps onto the ledge turning to face the crowd,
"And I think you should stop talking about yourself." she answers back - a smirk on her face - before she falls backwards.
Knife Throwing ~ I was good at it, but the Stiff was better, she always hit the target. Every time she put herself into the correct stance pulled her arm back and then threw it forwards hitting the centre.
Fighting ~ I hope I'm not against Stiff, I don't want to hurt her in the slightest, though I probably wouldn't be able to, she has won every fight shes had. I was snapped out of my thoughts by the cocky Candor walking past me with the Stiff following closely behind, once they were in the middle of the ring Max shouts out,
"You know the rules, GO!" the Candor goes first, lunging forward but Stiff dodges it and looks at his unguarded jaw, he notices and moves to guard it, leaving his stomach unguarded, she swings around and using all of her power kicks him in the stomach; he falls to the floor as she straddles him, proceeding to continuously punch him in the face until he falls unconscious. She stands up slowly, looking at Max with an innocent face which he just smirks at and says,
"Take him to the infirmary." she picks the unconscious Candor up without a struggle and walks out of the room...
I'm knocked out of my thoughts by crashing into something, I look up off the floor to see Four. He smirks at me,
"You ok Eric? Thinking about Petal?" he taunts, I chuckle at his teasing
"I'm fine mate just thinking about initiation, we better get to the net before Max has our heads." We walk to the net in silence, wondering what the cats dragged in this year.
