I started at the choosing ceremony because I thought you get a good insight of Caleb at the beginning of divergent so I would start from where he truly becomes him.
Chapter 1: Caleb's Choice
The bright lights beamed down from the ceiling as soon as I entered the room, the amount of people was uncanny. As I went to sit down next to Beatrice I couldn't help feeling like I had deceived her I'm sure she thinks that I'm going to choose abnegation. A feeling of guilt stabbed my head as the names were being called out. Some who I knew, some who I didn't, then my name. As I walked up to the bowls I could feel my heart beating in my chest as the room went deathly silent what if they can here it i thought. As I stood in front of my choices I finally made up my mind looked up one last time at my parents, who stared back at me with hopeful eyes that I would stay with them. Then walked over to in front of the blue bowl and cut and as my blood dripped into that bowl there was no going back.
I was now Erudite.
As I walked down to join my new faction I could feel my father's piercing eyes on the back of my head, now all I could hope for was that Beatrice chose abnegation. I could easily see over the heads in front of me all I could notice was how short this faction was there was only a couple of people taller than me. Then she was called, Beatrice Prior. I could sense how nervous she was, we have always had this connection were we could tell what the other was feeling even from far away. I crossed my fingers behind my back as she turned between what looked to be abnegation and dauntless. NO! I thought she can't choose dauntless she could die! Then she looked up at me with a look that I knew meant I had lost her forever, she then turned around and I watched as her blood dripped into the already red bowl which said DAUNTLESS 'the brave' on the front. Dauntless of course started shouting and screaming congratulations, as they do. I on the other hand just watched her as she walked confidently towards her new faction.
When we started leaving it was a strange feeling being one of the first as I have been abnegation for so many years and have always left last. I tried to be strong and look intelligent as erudite are renowned for their intelligence, but I probably just looked like a try hard fool as I walked out of the room with a pit of despair in my stomach. I will probably never see my family again. We boarded the train with the other erudite's and tried to look for a familiar face but I had no luck. So I just looked out the window wondering what the headquarters looked like, when out of the blue a voice said 'hi, I'm Sara, Caleb right?'
'Yeah' I replied 'so which faction did you transfer from?'
'Dauntless' and as the word escaped from her lips a spine tingling sense of fear coursed through me, she knows what my sisters going to go through I thought.
End of Chap one so what do you think should I carry on? Favourite and review plz!
