Chapter 23

"I understand why you’re worried, Peter.  The events of last night certainly proved that        you are a miserable coward...So now we all know, that you are afraid of a short, skinny girl from Abnegation."

                                                                         -Four

This chapter to me was all about protection. And instead of going into a lot of detail about what it was about, I want to talk a little about that. But I promise I'll include examples from the chapter. The definition of protection is- Preservation from injury or harm. However, protection can be applied to anywhere in life. Four protects her because he's in L-O-V-E, Will and Christina protect her because they are her best friends, and Al protected her in the beginning because he was her friend, but now he is just a scared little boy.

The minute that Will and Christina found out what happened to Tris, and that Al was a part of it, they were immediately protective of her! When Four took the initiates to see part three of initiation, they helped her get there because she could barely walk. And I just thought it was hilarious when Four told Drew to "pick up the pace" even when he was really hurting, and absolutely no one was helping him. 

Four explained part three of initiation, and told everyone that they would be going through fear landscapes. Fear landscapes are exactly like the simulations in the chair, but you are actually going through them. Physically. Not mentally.

This quote was hilarious to me because it shows that Four can stand up for Tris. Plus it makes Peter look like a complete idiot and that makes me giggle.
