Divergent-Dauntless

After the choosing ceremony, Beatrice jumps on a train to get to the Dauntless headquarters. She barely makes it on, and another person actually helps her on. She then has to jump from a train onto the roof of a building, and some don't make the jump.  One girl refuses to jump, saying that she would rather be factionless than be dead, and becomes factionless. All Beatrice gets are some scraps, but one girl attempts the jump but falls and dies.Once they are on the roof of the building, a Dauntless leader, Max, says that they must jump into a hole into a building. Of the many tests so far, this is the most trying. Many questions are asked, but none are answered.

Beatrice is the first to jump, and instead of hitting the ground, she falls into a net (of course or else this would be a very short book) and meets a boy named Four on the bottom. He is a very important person in Dauntless, and congratulates her for being brave enough to be the first one to jump. Also, at the bottom when they ask Beatrice what her name is, she realizes that she has the opportunity to change her name, and she does. Her new name is Tris. 

The Dauntless headquarters is underground, and it is called "The Pit". It's a big, well, pit. At the bottom there is a chasm with rushing water which is a good reminder that being too brave can easily get you killed. At the bunkroom where the new transfers are staying, a man named Eric which is a rival of Four explains how Dauntless initiation works: it's a big competition, and only the top-ranked people get in. Yay?
