<Four pov>
I am walking towards my room when i see Eric step out his room followed by Ace. I am overwhelmed with anger.
"What the hell are you doing with Ace," i yell at Eric.
Ace steps in before Eric can answer.
"It wasn't him it was me. I had some questions," she says.
I look at her then Eric. I glare at Eric, but something does not feel right.
"Why didn't you ask me," i say.
"It was about something i had to talk with him and Max," she says.
"Did he do something to you," i ask.
Eric looks annoyed by the questions.
"No," she says.
I glare at her and she glares back.
"Fine, but don't let me catch you up here again. You aren't even suppose to be hear," i say, she nods.
I turn to head towards my apartment. Ace and Eric walk away together. I am suspicious. I stop and turn around and start heading to the control room.
I look at the surveillance cameras. It shows she went into his house around 2 and she did not leave till five minutes ago. She was in his house for five hours "talking" about something her, Eric and Max talked about. I should ask Max, he will tell me the truth. I know Max has a meeting till late so it will have to wait.
I start heading back to my apartment. What was Ace asking him. Or was she really asking him anything at all.

<Ace pov>
That was close
I look over to Eric who seems really calm. His hard exterior was back. Cold and rigid. I walk myself back to the dorms cause Eric had to go to a meeting. He did not say bye he just walked away. I am not so surprised. I walk into the dorm to find myself face to face with Loki.
"Hey shuck face," says Loki.
I roll my eyes at him and attempt to walk past him. He grabs my shoulder and turn me around to face him.
"I'm not done talking to you," he says.
"Well i am," i say and walk away towards the bathroom.
I hear his footsteps behind me. I stop right in front of the bathroom cause i notice Greg is back. He has a crutch next to his bed. I feel a pang of guilt in my stomach. Before i can walk towards him someone slams me into the wall. I see stars but I turn around to face an angry Loki. I smirk and punch him in the face. He is out cold, then i walk over to Greg who is staring at me wide eyed.
"Hey Greg, how you feeling," i ask.
"Better," he says.
"Nice hit, he is an ass," says Greg.
I nod in agreement. We talk for a little bit we see Loki get up and walk out. After he leaves we laugh. All the dauntless born initiates were all out drinking except me and Greg. When it hits ten i go back to my bunk and Greg lays down.
"Hey Ace," he says.
"Yeah," i say.
"Teach me how to kick someday,okay?"
"Sure."
I feel a smile crawl on to my lips before i fall asleep.

<Erics pov>
It was an interesting start to the morning. I found Loki sneaking around and scared the mess out of him when i dragged him by the collar to the dorms. Once i got to the dauntless born dorms i notice Ace is already up, cleaning something.
"Initiates head to the mess hall," i yell.
Everyone starts heading out accept Ace. I walk over to her. I see red on her bed.
"What happened," i ask.
She looks flustered.
"Loki, being an ass. He decide to spray paint my bed writing loser," she smirks and laughs.
"Oh okay," i say.
I start walking out and Ace follows behind me. We walk silently to the mess hall, but i feel her grab my arm before we enter.
"Hey can you put me to fight against Loki again so i can show him who is a loser," she says.
I smile.
"Sorry he has to go against someone else. But if you do it without anyone finding out i won't tell," i say with a wink.
She smirks and we walk in. Loki is sitting at a table in the corner by himself. I grab him while Ace goes to sit with Four.
"If i catch you outside the dorms, sneaking around, I am going to beat you to a pulp," i say while i lift him from the table by his collar.
He looks terrified and i smirk.
"This is the leaders table. Go sit some where else," i say.
After he leaves i see Max has already seated.
"What was that," says Max.
"A problem i handled," i say.
"You don't always have to be an ass," says Lydia as she sits.
"Says the ass herself," i say.
She gawks at me.
"Shut it you too," says Max.
He looks a bit ticked, but this is how we start every morning. And Max is always in a bad mood in morning.
"Anything new," Max says looking at me.
"Dauntless born initiate played a prank on another kid," i say.
"Who," says Lydia.
I glare at her.
"That kid i moved and Ace," i say.
Max eyes go wide and he seems even more ticked.
"What did that lizard do," says Max.
"Lizard," questions Lydia.
"Loki, green hair kid. Lip gage," i say rolling my eyes.
"Give him a punishment, something gross for that spoiled ass kid," says Max.
I smile big.
"My pleasure," i say.
Lydia smirks in her corner Joe another leader and Lance join us. We talk about boring leader stuff. After Joe, Lance, and Lydia leaves, me and max talks about punishment for Loki.
"Cleaning showers," i ask questioningly.
"Lets let him go take care of the baby room. Cleaning up baby shit," he says with a smirk.
I nod, but i feel like he might do something stupid in there.
"Cleaning showers and gutting the pigs," i say.
"That sounds pretty good. Why? You against baby idea," he says raising an eyebrow.
"I feel like he might do something stupid," i say.
He nods.
After i am done eating i head out towards the pit. As i am turning the corner stepping into the pit i bump into someone. I glare at the person in front of me. I can barely see her face.
"Sorry," she murmurs.
I notice that the voice is Rina's. I hear footsteps coming around the corner.
"There you are," i hear Ace say.
She hooks her arm into Rina's arm. She tugs her close.
"Will is waiting at the bar for us. We should go," Ace says.
Rina nods. I grab Ace's shoulder before they walk off. She tells Rina to go a head.
"Whats up," she says.
"Do not get to drunk you got training in ten," i say smirking.
She rolls her eyes and smiles up at me and before i know it her lips are on mine. I kiss her back. As we pull a part i hear footsteps coming around the corner. I smile then turn serious again after she starts walking away. I turn to see a few initiates walking my way. When they see me they turn the other direction. I start heading for the training room.

Four is already there setting up knives and guns. I am happy they put fighting before the knife and guns cause we can test how accurate they are after they get beaten up. Four disagreed, but it helps choose the stronger initiates. People start filing into the room slowly. I notice Ace is the last one to pull in after Loki, she looks upset. I wonder if Loki did something to her in the hallway. I will have to ask her later i tell myself in my head.
"Today we will be throwing knives and shooting guns. Lets see how accurate you guys are. Four will show you the stance," i say as i point towards Four.
He walks up to the first target with three knives and starts explaining. I watch from the back and notice Ace is standing near the back. I walk up to her and tap her on the shoulder.
"Anything happen after breakfast," i ask.
"No," she says.
I can hear the anger in her voice somethings not right.
"You sure," i ask.
She nods and walks back to the group. After Four is done showing the stance each initiate is told to grab four knives. They start practicing their stance and throw. Most of them miss the target. Ace surprisingly is hitting the target but not near the middle.
Loki is doing fine. But the person that catches my eye is Rina. She is hitting center of the target. I thought she would not be any where near it. I wonder how that Connor kid would have done.
~~~~~
<Ace pov>
I see Rina sinking her knives in the middle of the target. She is doing really well with knives i wonder how Connor would react to her accuracy. The thought of Connor makes me sad he really was amazing. Most of the time when we were training i would for get that he was gone.
I see Rina cry sometimes and i comfort her. I still have no clue why Connor died. I should ask Four if he saw anything, but i am pretty sure he is pissed at me for being at Eric's apartment.
After an hour everyone starts to hit the target. Im still hitting the outside circles which makes me mad. I keep trying but keep hitting the outer ring. I feel an arm grab my hand before i can throw the next knife.
"Your stance is wrong," says the voice.
It is Eric,i can feel his body heat behind me, and it's driving me insane. He pushes my feet apart more and pulls my arm back and places a hand on my stomach.
He guides my hand in direction it should go and we throw together. This time i hit dead center. I turn around and smile. I see a smirk pull at his lips.
"Did i tell you to stop," he says in a low growl.
I turn around and start throwing again. Eric has his mood swings doesn't he. I laugh to myself.
Once we are done with knives it is time for lunch. I stay behind to help Four clean up, and i also wanted to ask him a question.
"Four," i say.
"Hm," he answers.
"What exactly happened to Connor?"
Four looks up at me then looks around the room as if to check if someone was watching us.
"I don't know," he says.
I know he is lying.
"I know you do," i whisper at him.
"Come to my apartment later," he whispers in my ear before we leave to the mess hall.
