Chapter Seventeen - The One With An Initiation Ritual

Don't look down Tris!

Tris decides to spend time alone because she doesn't want to revisit the memory what happened to Edward. Uriah notices Tris and invites her to come with the Dauntless-borns to go on an adventure. Yay! Tris is making friends!

They leave the Dauntless HQ and end up at the Hancock Building. They take the elevator up to the top of the building, where there is a zipline. Tris instantly becomes nervous. A few people go before her and by the time it is her turn, she is filled with a mixture of fear and anxiousness. When she finally goes, she has a blast.

When the group returns, Tris' friends see her with the Dauntless-borns and become jealous of her popularity.  While Tris was gone, there was an Erudite member asking questions about the Abnegation leaders. Christina stands up for Tris and Abnegation.

When Tris looks back over at the Dauntless-born initiates and realizes how much she wants to live the Dauntless life. After today, she feels like she is finally starting to fit in. It looks like she will use this as her motivation to continue to be successful in her training.

"It's the first time I have been really eager to be one of them. Which means I have to survive the next stage of initiation."
