Chapter 16-19


Chapter 16
At the start of chapter 16 Tris starts to talk to Al and he basically spills his guts about how he has a crush on her. He gets frustrated because she doesn’t feel the same and it gets strange.  He talks about his family and how they wanted him to join dauntless.
Later they start talking about the test they had to take and of course Tris lies but her other friends from Candor can tell she is lying. Four comes in and tells them all the rankings and Tris is 6 out of 9 which she seems to be ok with. Peter and Molly are mad at their rankings.
After a little bit the number #1 ranked guy Edward gets stabbed in the eye which of course ruins everything for him. Causing him and his girlfriend to dropout making them fractionless.

Chapter 17
The team of Dauntless gets on a train and on the starts talking to a girl Shauna and Zeke who are also dauntless. They start zip lining and have a great time. When she gets home Al and Christina wonder where she has been and what she has been doing.

Chapter 18
So in chapter 18 the Dauntless have to do the second stage of initiation. It is a mental aptitude test. They do a simulation that makes you face your biggest fears. It is a private test with just Four and Tris. The next part uses a simulation serum and a transmitter is injected into her.  Her first hallucination she is in an empty field and is attacked by crows. Apparently you get to end your hallucination when you get your fear under control.
Four and Tris discuss fear and realize that the crows are just a symbol of something she is actually afraid of. Then they discuss Dauntless and how it used to be about courage, but now the leaders are more into cruelty. I guess this is why Eric is in charge of the new initiates, even though Four was ranked above him when they first started.

Chapter 19
Chapter 19 basically just talked about Molly and how she gets revenge on Tris for beating her by telling lies to a reporter that her parents abused her. Will prevents Tris from fighting her and they go get a tattoo instead. On the way home they run into drunk Dauntlless along with Four. He tells Tris she looks good. (I so hope they get together!)
