Hey! Okay, so again, this is my second story as a writer on Fanfiction, so be nice!

So this story, as the title clearly states, is a retelling of Divergent, in Rose's POV. :D
Read and review, please! Criticism is totally accepted, it's a part of every writer's work. :D

Disclaimer: The plot belongs entirely to Veronica Roth, and the characters belong solely to Richelle Mead.
Technically, almost nothing belongs to me. :(

Divergent: Rose's Story

Introduction

Montana 2075.
A brand new world.

This world is known by the name 'The Society'.

The Society is made up of five factions, each one standing for a virtue of humanity.

First, Abnegation.
Abnegation values the virtue of Selflessness, and believes in forgetting oneself for the sake of others.
The citizens belonging to Abnegation usually dress in drab gray robes, have a schedule and a limit for everything. Food, work, exercise, everything is regulated and supervised. Females cannot do anything that emphasizes their beauty.
Self-indulgence is the worst crime a citizen can commit.
Other than murder, maybe.
This faction is led by a governmental council.

Second, Amity.
Amity values the virtue of Peace, and believes in kindness and forgiveness.
The citizens belonging to Amity usually dress in cheerful red and yellow clothes, and are the crop-growers, counselors, and artists of the Society.
War is the worst crime possible for Amity citizens.
And yes, war leads to murder.
This faction has a spokesperson to lead it. Usually the citizens assemble and make a joint decision.

Third, Candor.
Candor values the virtue of Honesty, and believes in openness and trustworthiness.
The citizens belonging to Candor believe that truth is either black or white, so they dress in those colors. They value honesty so much so that they feel insulting someone is better than lying to them. They work in law related jobs.
Dishonesty and deception are the worst crimes possible.
Candor, like Amity, have a single representative or spokesperson.

Fourth, Dauntless.
Dauntless values the virtue of Courage, and believes in bravery and fearlessness.
The citizens belonging to Dauntless can be compared to druggies, or rebellious teenagers in today's world.
Yes, I'm talking black clothes, tattoos, piercings and doing reckless things like jumping off of buildings and moving vehicles.
The members choose to become Faction-less or die, once they reach a certain age. Their job is to be security for the Society.
Cowardice is the worst crime possible.
Murder is actually encouraged.
They have a few leaders within them who answer to the Council.

Lastly, Erudite.
Erudite values the virtue of Knowledge, and believes in intelligence, curiosity and astuteness.
The citizens belonging to Erudite wear blue clothing, due to belief that it provides a calming effect, and all of them wear glasses to feel smarter. They are the faction with the most important jobs. Doctors, teachers, librarians, officials to safeguard records, all come from Erudite.
Ignorance is the worst crime possible.
They have a single leader who is a representative in the Council.

Then there are the Factionless, who are described as being in a condition worse than the homeless, and suffer a lot more.
They are given bits of food every now and then by Abnegation.
They have the worst jobs, as truck drivers, garbage cleaners and factory workers.
The Factionless make up most of the population of The Society.

This world, this different new world, no matter how much more advanced, will always be worse.
The little things that are appreciated in life are missing here, and no one ever truly feels like they belong.
My name is Rose Hathaway, and I'm Abnegation.

But I hate my life, I hate my faction, I hate the Society.
Hey, who said life is easy?

Okay, I totally wasn't satisfied with Abnegation, so I took it down and put this up.
Maybe now, the story will make better sense! :)
R&R, please!
