Hey guys, this is my first Divergent fan fiction so please tell me what you think.

This is if the uprising hasn't happened "Yet" so a new set of transfers come to Dauntless.

I can't help it. I always fiddle with my hair when I'm nervous, it's one of my many, many flaws. I readjust my blue bow, waiting for my name to be called out.

"Abby Bradley" I look up to see an Amity girl slowly walks up to centre stage.

I'm next, soon I'll have to stand up on the stage and decide what path I'll take. Thoughts run through my mind.

"Athena, your what we call Divergent,"

"You can't tell anyone, I'll delete the footage and say you got Erudite."

I bite my lip. Why is being Divergent so bad and why was Tori so uptight about the whole thing.

"Athena Matthews" I take a deep breath and stand up. I have to think logically I can't pick the wrong one.

Candor the honest, I always see them around school just blurting out how they feel.

Amity the peaceful, there the more popular faction since all they do is smile and have fun.

Abnegation the selfless, I don't really notice them I couldn't even tell someone what they do.

Erudite the intelligent, my faction at the moment we always think logically and strive on educating ourselves.

Then there's Dauntless the brave, they always laugh too loud, get into fights for fun and all that stupid stuff.

I take the knife from the table. There's five bowls, one for each faction. I take a deep breath and draw the knife across my palm.

It stings at first. I end up scrunching my face up. Everyone's looking at me, my parents, sister, friends all of them are steering at me trying to get into my head. I've had it with Erudite I can't live up to my sister.

I can hear loud cheers and light sobs. My mother's crying. I look over to the Dauntless side. My new faction I've made my decision. I'm not honest, far from it really, there's no way I'm selfless, my tempers to short for Amity and why should I live in my sister's shadow. It's the logical choice. I chew on my lower lip as I walk over to the other Dauntless transfers.

I can't concentrate on the rest of the ceremony. Between my heart racing and Dad glaring holes in my head I just end up steering at my shoes for the rest of it. I snap out of my daydream when everyone around me stands up. I straighten my bow before following them to the bottom of the stairs when everyone starts sprinting.

"URG really!" I roll my eyes and jogs up.

I'm in the middle of the group by the time we reach what looks like train tracks. I almost forgot, I had a theory that this would happen but i really hoped we wouldn't have to.

"This is highly illogical" I don't know who I'm speaking to and I didn't expect an answer but I got one.

"Just keep running Erudite" I turn to see a tall brunette running beside me.

"I was...planning to Candor" I couldn't help but smile and nether could the girl. She smiles and sprints ahead of me jumping into the open carriage. I know I have to but it's a moving train! I sprint up to the carriage and jump in. I land on my shoulder.

"A-Are you okay?" I look up to see an Amity girl next to me.

"Yeah I'm fine" I try to smile.

"Meh, she'll be fine" it's the Candor girl. They both help me up and lead me to a wall.

"Um" I know I have to say something, anything as long as it's not random facts. "I'm Athena" I look at booth girls and pull out my bow, allowing my copper hair hang to the middle of my back.

"Abby" The Amity smiles, her name rings a bell but I can't figure out why,

"Emily" we all end up laughing. I don't know why, we just do until everyone around us stands up.

"What are they doing?" I see a blonde girl standing next to us looking like a mixture of fear and excitement.

"Well first my names Athena, and if I'm correct we'll have to jump" I wrap my ribbon around my wrist.

"Meg and what really are they crazy" the excitement drains from her face as the fear takes over. That's when I notice her clothing, plan and gray she must be Abnegation.

I can feel a hand wrap around mine.

"Let's jump together" Abby bites her lip. We all nod and get ready.

"THREE" why am I doing this?

"TWO" I close my eyes.

"ONE" why am I enjoying this?

"JUMP" we all run up and jump.

The felling was amazing, well it was till my face skid across the ground. I gritted my teeth and cupped the right side of my face.

"Everyone okay?" Meg looks around, she has a small graze on her leg but nothing too bad.

"Yeah" Emily and Abby say together.

"Yeah I'm good kind of" I mumble the last part hoping no one heard.

"Everyone my names Max" we all snap out of our shock to look at a tall man standing to close to the ledge for my taste.

"I'm one of the leaders in Dauntless" I can't help but roll my eyes. I've dealt with allot of faction leaders back at home- my old home.

I end up in a daydream about my family. Will dad stay silent tonight while mum tries to snap him out of his anger, his embarrassment?

"You want us to jump?!" I start to pay attention again.

"Yep" Max has a smug smirk on his face.

"is there water at the bottom or something?" someone else blurts out.

"Who knows" the smirk only grows "anyone want to find out?"

I don't know why, I can't even remember moving up till I was right on the ledge"

"Ooooh Erudite's going to jump isn't that rather illogical?" I turn to see a tall, skinny Candor girl laughing and snickering. I bite my lip thinking of a good comeback.

"I guess that's why I moved then" I don't wait for an answer I just let my body fall forward.

I force myself to open my eyes while I fall. My chest tightness I've been falling for what fells like forever. I fell something catch me. A net thank god.

"We have our first jumper!" I look around to see a blonde Dauntless women smiling.

"Make the announcement Four" I can't keep track of who's speaking.

"First jumper" The man looks at me.

"OH, Athena" I end up stumbling on my words.

"ATHENA" he smiles and the crowd cheers and laughs.

The man I think his name was Four and the blonde Dauntless help me down before going back to making the announcements. I watch as Emily gracefully jumps down, but the other on the other hand are screaming and waving their arms and legs. They looked like they got pushed but I'm not sure if anyone would do that.

I sit with my hopefully new found friends as we listen to the Dauntless talking, screaming and laughing. Maybe, just maybe ill become one of them.
