《Stubborn Stiff Tobias' Sister -Completed》1st jumper
Advertisement
My back collided with a net which bounced me up once. "I knew it," I said breathlessly. I looked up to see the hand out in front of me was Tobias'. "First jumper Charlotte" he called out. I took his hand and he helped me off the net. He looked older and stronger than when I last saw him. "I missed you" I said, hugging him. He was taken by surprise but let me hug him. The next jumper was Tris and after her was Christina and so on and so forth. Everybody jumped eventually and we were led away from the net by Lauren and Four. We walked down a narrow hallway and stopped abruptly so Lauren could split the dauntless born and the transfers. “Most of the time I work in the control room, but for the next few weeks, I
am your instructor,” Tobias says. “My name is Four.” “Four? Like the number?” I ask
“Yes,” Four says. “Is there a problem?”
“No.” I reply to him. When did he change his name?
“Good. We’re about to go into the Pit, which you will someday learn to love. It—”
Me and Christina start cracking up. “The Pit? Clever name.” I say to which Christina and Beatrice start laughing about. Four walks up to us and leans his face close to mine. He stares at me for a while. “What’s your name?” he asks quietly to Christina. "Erm Christina" she squeaks out.
“Well, Christina, if I wanted to put up with Candor smart-mouths, I would have joined their
faction,” he hisses. He looks at me. “The first lesson you will learn from me is to keep your mouths shut. Got that?” I nod.
Four starts toward the shadow at the end of the tunnel. The crowd of us moves on in silence, clearly uptight about what four had just said.

“What a jerk,” Christina says quietly “I guess he doesn’t like to be laughed at" Beatrice or Tris now says. We continue walking until Four pushes open double doors. "The pit" he says. We walk in. "Oh I get it", Christina is fast to say. Uneven rocky walls are stories above our heads. There Are places for food, clothing, supplies, and leisure activities. There's a glass roof which provides sunlight. "If you follow me I'll show you the chasm" Four says. He waves his hands making a tattoo on his collar bone visible. We approach the chasm and as we get closer the water seems to move faster. “The chasm reminds us that there is a fine line between bravery and idiocy!” Four shouts. “A daredevil jump, off this ledge will end your life. It has happened before and it will happen again. You’ve been warned.” he finishes
“This is incredible,” Christina says. We all move away from the railing and Tris replies. “Incredible is the word". Four leads us across the pit to a dark tunnel. A dining room full of dauntless who are clashing silverware together. When we walk in, the other dauntless stand applauding us and stamping their feet they're Is shouting and hollers as well. Christina wears the biggest grin as me and Tris begin smiling most likely looking like idiots. I finally got out of that wretched house.
We look for empty seats. Christina and Tris discover a mostly empty table at the side of the room. Of course those two are too afraid to sit next to four so I end up sitting between Tris and him. The center of the table holds food I make a face not recognizing any of it and me and Tris find each other doing the same thing. Circular meat on top of a round bread slice with another price of bread on top of the meat. Tris grabs one as do I but we are both do unsure of what it is we look stupid. Four nudges me with his elbow.

“It’s beef,” he says. “Put this on it.” He passes me a small bowl full of red sauce. “You’ve never had a hamburger before?” asks Christina, her eyes wide. "No Tris hasn't either" I say. Christina with a moment of shock looks at both of us. "Is that what it's called?" I say laughing. “Stiffs eat plain food,” Four says, nodding at Christina. “Why?” she asks, confused. I shrug. “Extravagance is considered self-indulgent and unnecessary.” Tris says. She smirks. “No wonder you left.” I giggle at that comment. “Yeah,” Tris says, rolling her eyes. “It was just because of the food.” I said sarcastically joining Tris.

A Beginner's Guide to Napping, Sunbathing, and Slaughtering Your Prey
Fang is a simple cat. Fang likes napping in the sun. Fang does not like being called Chairman Meow. Fang likes his belly being scratched for precisely 17.329 seconds. Fang does not like being punted between dimensions. Fang likes hunting and killing defenseless wildlife. Fang does not like mysterious blue boxes that appear out of thin air. Fang is having a Very Bad Day. A few things to note: Fang is a cat soul in a cat body, and that's not going to change any time soon. No cat girl evolution or possessed puppet or any of that. The slice of life tag is there for a reason. There is no epic tale here, only a cat doing cat things in a (hopefully) interesting setting. The game elements are pretty light, mostly there for flavor, so don't expect a huge amount of crunch. Nature is cruel, and cats are crueler than most.
