Emily Matthews

I slept for barely two hours. I was just thinking about tomorrow. What will I do? Heck! I didn't even know who the hell I am? Because of my Erudite habits I make a whole plan.

I have 5 factions- Erudite, Abnegation, Candor, Dauntless and Amity. Whatever I choose I just know that Candor is out since in the last stage of initiation you have to give out all of your secrets while being under the truth serum- that would certainly get my secret of Divergence out. Many people usually decide to be in their first faction so that their family could protect them, but in my case I couldn't wait to get out of here, cauz as soon as my aunt finds out. I know I'll be dead the next day. Literally. She is a like a divergent eating monster. I would never admit but once I sneaked in her lab to check what she was working on. MY ERUDITE CURIOUSITY TOOK OVER.OK! She was working on some serum. Whatever I could make out from her notes (she has a really bad handwriting) it was immune to Divergent which would make them easier to track. I could go Abnegation but I consider myself a very selfish person and don't hate myself for that. I wouldn't survive for more than a week. Dauntless sounded too dangerous, I would definitely get kicked out or die before completing the initiation Divergent is a person who belongs to too many factions. I felt that I don't belong in any of them. I felt worse than a factionless.

---------------Time break-----------------

The motion of the lift to the twentieth floor of the hub made my insides turn upside down. Just as the floor increased my blood pressure followed. My aunt waved back to me and smiled as if she already knew that I'll be going back to the apartment with her. I stood in the line they were alphabetically arranged behind me was an Abnegation girl and in front of me was Candor girl. How do they look so relieved? Oh yeah! Cauz they know what to choose. The door close and there's a moment of quiet as the council of representative, Max from Dauntless moves to the podium, and starts his so-called speech.

The first boy chose Amity the next girl chose Candor. They were doing reverse order. All was going fine until the council representative of Abnegation, Marcus's son chose Dauntless. That led to high and loud gasps and infinite mutters. I think that he was the only Abnegation transferred to Dauntless. What was his name? Tony? Taylor? That sounds wrong. After a few minutes Max called my name. I went up and accepted the knife from him. He gave me a small smile; I looked back at my aunt for a millisecond. Slowly I dragged the knife on my lower bottom of my palm; I winced a little. The drop of blood was about to pour on the ground, I panicked and dropped it in the first bowl. My blood sizzled on the coals. I could hear my aunt's mouth opened from there. I dreamt of being something I could never be. Brave.

A/N 

Now I know you would be mumbling like why do all important people have to go to Dauntless but bear with me. okay? I do not own Divergent.

ADIOS!
