Chapter 20

  "You manipulated the simulation; you’re Divergent.  I’ll delete the footage,  but                                  unless you want to wind up dead at the bottom of the chasm, you’ll figure out how to hide it during the simulations!"
                                                                  -Four 

This chapter was kind of difficult for me. But not impossible. It starts right away. It started talking about another simulation that Tris had to be in. Then it started to describe it, and trust me, this one was the worst. The simulation was that she was trapped in this room, and water started rising, and then she started drowning. Scratch everything I said before. This would be THE worst. When you are getting pecked by crows, you have no time to think about what is going on. When you are drowning, you have all this time to think about what is going to happen to you, and during all this time, you can't breath.


Tris doesn't think like this, though. All she can think about is how to get out. She starts searching for a way out, and she starts kicking the glass. She kicks and kicks and all of a sudden, she puts a crack in the glass. She keeps kicking and finally, the glass breaks. Water starts gushing out, and she is safe. Then she is awake in the chair again. She expects Four to be happy. This is a completely normal expectation right? Orrrrr not. Because here comes Four, with a completely different, mind-blowing reaction. 

This quote really sums up the rest of the chapter. He knows she is divergent. How? Why? For answers, she goes to Tori at the tattoo shop. Tori talks to her for a little while, and she keeps trying to help her understand. Then, like everyone else, Tori tells her that she can't tell ANYONE that she is Divergent. Or she will DIE. Tris doesn't believe her. But I do. I hope she doesn't do anything stupid.
