Eric stood at the Choosing Ceremony with the rest of the Dauntless faction. His cold eyes watched as the ceremony took place. As hopeful initiates cut their palms to drop it into one of the five bowls. Sizzling coals for Dauntless. Pale gray stones for Abnegation. Soil for Amity. Glass for Candor. Water for Erudite.

He watches as initiates choose to either stay with their faction of birth or transfer out to another faction. Another year, another name called. He watched as an Amity was called and almost rolled his eyes.

"Dauntless!"

Jeanine Matthews, the faction leader for Erudite called out. His cold eyes widened in shock. No way. The Amity actually transfered to his faction? Amity borns never made it into Dauntless, at least not in his tenure anyway.

As the last few names are called the Dauntless run out of the building to catch a moving train. After all why wait for it to stop when they could just jump on and off as it moved the tracks? All too soon he stands on a rooftop. The initiate entrance into the Dauntless compound. He waits.

Many initiates make it. Some don't clear the jump off the train and get killed from the fall. He looks over the initiates that made it so far. Which would be the first jumper?
