Akira took the knife from me and I quickly shoved the cloth in my mouth, I didn’t think my lip would handle being chomped on again. I winced as she dug around in my shoulder and was grateful that she was skilled with the knife. She thanked me for helping to which I simply nodded, she was Dauntless, of course I helped her.

“We should wait till nightfall to leave here, we’ll be harder to spot. Maybe we can find some more Dauntless that aren’t allied with the Erudite before then, lead them back here and wait.” I suggested. I grabbed my gun and checked to make sure everything was in working order before flipping the safety on and letting myself out of the house, I needed to find more Dauntless. I needed to know that more of my Dauntless had survived than just the idiot puppets of the Erudite. I wondered if my parents knew about the attack…if they knew that I was going to be turned into a mindless slave of an Erudite program. The thought pissed me off, I knew I was going to have to find them, get answers but for now…I needed to find my true family.
