Divergent- Conflict

Tris and her big Dauntless friend, Al have a relationship. Except it's one way. And it's really awkward. Al has a crush on Tris, and he tells her. But she doesn't have a crush on him. In fact, there's more that Al tells her. He tells her how he wants to protect people, and how his parents wanted him to join Dauntless. Al is from Candor, which are the people who strive to be honest. So it is normal with Al to share all of his heart with others, because he is very honest. But he can also tell when people are bluffing. So can Tris's other Candor friend, Christina. So when Tris and her Candor friends are talking about their aptitude tests, she tries to lie about her results, but remember? Candor can tell.

Four reveals the rankings for the first round. And Tris scores 6 out of 9. Average. She listened to her mother. Peter comes in 2nd, and Molly (an enemy of Tris) scored 5th. Later that night, the #1 ranked initiate (Edward) gets stabbed in the eye, which ruins his ability to fight. And coincidentally, Peter and his little friend Drew, aren't around. Hmmmm. Sabotoge? Tris later learns that Edward and his girlfriend Myra both dropped out. They're factionless now. That means that Peter is #1. Oh joy.
