Jake does his usual routine wake up and ever gets up and dressed in whatever they wish to wear, and heads out to the pit and waits for Jake to direct them to where they will be doing the second part of initiation.
Oceana is wearing a new black dress that ends just above the knees as well as a pair of high tops. Her hair is in pigtails, her new pink streaks in them.
Jake has everyone sit and calls them up in what appears to be a random order. Carlo is the third one up.

When Jake calls up Carlo, he heads over. "Fear simulation, right?" He asks Jake.
((OOC: Sorry for the short posts recently. Can you be Jake?)) |

"Something similar to that," Jake says as he prepares the vaccine. "I'm going to inject you with this, which will cause you to see only one of your fears. We'll be timing it. Your fear simulation will be later." Jake injects the simulation serum into him and backs up to the computer to watch as Carlo goes into his fear.

Carlo was injected with the serum and began to see his fear;
There was a desert all around him. The sand was hot on his bare feet. He began to walk forwards. Then, he sees it, one of his fears. It's a scorpion. It's coming towards him and he begins to back up, until he trips. He can't get up and is now covered in the scorpions. He wants to scream, but he doesn't. It's just in your head. He reminds himself. Being Divergent must have been what made him realize this. He could control the simulation! He relaxed, and fell down through the sand and out of the simulation.
Waking up, he looks at Jake. "How long was I in there?" He asks him. |

"Just a few minutes. You were a lot faster than everyone else. How'd you do it?" He is pressing buttons here and there, rewatching it to make sure something else didn't wake him so early.

"I'm not sure. I just did it. I let myself sink in to the sand. The scorpions just went away. I guess- I just was able to control my fear?" Carlo says. He wasn't sure how he did it, and he realized that neither did Jake. Carlo's heart was beating fast out of both fear and excitement. Fear because he thought that if his Divergence had something to do with this, they'd figure him out. Excitement because he did well, which meant he was at the top of the list at the moment. |

"You're free to go," he opens the door and calls for Oceana. (OOC: can you be Jake?)

"Oceana. You're next." says Jake. He wonders how quickly this one will go. Carlo had gone all too fast and Jake couldn't understand why. "Today you'll be facing one of your fears, once I inject this into your neck, alright? Good luck." he continues. He injects the needle in to the back of Oceana's neck. |

Oceana is walking around the factionless section of the city with an older woman somewhere in her late twenties. Oceana is younger, and smiling and laughing, wearing old tattered clothes from each faction.
"Oceana, slow down!" The woman laughed, chasing after the laughing little girl.
Oceana runs up towards a Dauntless, no older than sixteen. Based on this clothes, he just failed the initial portion of initiation. Oceana smiled at him sweetly in that way little kids do with there innocence.
The man looked angry, furious at the fact he just failed. He pulled a gun out and pointed it at someone behind her.
"Oceana, run!" The woman yelled, a second before she crumpled to the ground, a hole going through her chest, dead before she even hit the ground.
Oceana sprinted away, tears streaming down her face. A gun went off again, ending the fear before it hit her.

"That was interesting. Well, you'll be coming back tomorrow to face another fear. Your time was about 14 minutes. Not as long as some take, but longer than others. You're dismissed." Says Jake. The door is opened for Oceana to leave. |

Oceana leaves and heads back to the dorm. She gets on her bed and hugs her knees close to her body, crying and shaking.

"Are you alright?" Asks Carlo, coming over and sitting at the foot of Oceana's bed. Her fear must have been pretty bad to make her shake like that. He was genuinely concerned, where as he didn't think any of the other initiates would have been. Oceana and Carlo are the only ones in the initiates rooms at the moment. |

"My-my mom got shot. S-she didn't stand a chance against him!" She ended up crying into his chest, shaking really bad. "And-and then. Then he shot me."

Carlo begins to run his fingers through Oceana's hair. "You'll be alright. It's over now. Come here." He says, wrapping his arms around her in a comforting hug. A tear slips down his face as well. He's sad for Oceana. He knows how hard it is to lose a family member. He'd lost his brother before. Not only was Carlo trying to comfort Oceana, but he was trying to comfort himself as well, knowing what might come in his fears tomorrow. |

After a few minutes like that, Oceana calmed down enough that she was no longer shaking or crying. "Thanks, Carlo. For being there for me." She hugs him and gets up and leaves to go and walk around for a bit.
