I woke up and stared at the ugly roof . Just a plain slab of concrete. I lived in an orphanage in abnigation where everything was plain as not to draw attention to your self, but attention was what i craved so much. Abnigation is the faction trusted with running government as they served others eating plain food wearing long grey clothes. You cant even have a mirror unless you are having your monthly hair cut. I rutenly broke that rule. I had growen my hair out lately so that when i choose at the choosing ceremony then i could cut it in the way i would wish to. Abnigation was good but i needed more.i cared about helping people and cared about people even if they didnt return it. To day is the day i will go through my aptitude test that will give me my basis of my choice at the choosing ceremony but i was free to choose no mater my result. "MAGNUSSSS! Its the day!" Catarina burst in followed by a still half asleep ragnor. Even if they wouldn't admit it there was chemistry between them. Cat and rag are my best friends and all share the same dream of getting out of here as i do. She came and jumped on my bed and ragnor lounged at my door. I beamed at her she sat down. "Mag. Rag. Are you nervous?" She askdd with a worried face. She obviously is. "I dont want to leave my dad but i talked to him and he understands he said im just like my mom and the worst thing he could do for me is hold me back" ragnor said with a sigh. "Im not" i said smiling "i dont have anything here anyway. Except you guys but your coming with me so im algud." I said still beaming. I turned to cat she answered "i talked to my brother he said that he chose this and that didnt mean i had to but i didnt tell my parents." A sad look came over her eyes. Her relationship with her parents wasnt the best hense wanting to get the hell outta here. Sje turned to ragnor and he gave her reassuring head nod and a small smile. The other factions are
amity : a bunch of hippies that grow all the food, sing, dance and stuff like that. But they stand for peace. I have no intention of joining them.
Eriodite : the brainy ones who value knowledge and use science or literature to prove thier point. I didnt want to join them as they had a grudge against abnigation but i wasnt dumb so was all ways a possibility.
Candor : they value honesty and are brutally honest even when you wish they weren't. I was an open person and wasnt a fraid of speakimg my mind but it certainly wasnt my life style.
Duantless : the protectors our police and wall gaurders not to mention crazy and free. They value bravery. Thats where i want to be and what i will pick. All three of us will. " your hairs crazy long when are you going to cut it" asked a disgusted cat. "When we get to our new home and im aloud a half decent hair do." We all laughed and then i shooed them away to give me time to shower and change i came out and ate. Then we headed for the bus. We got on and within 5 minutes i was expected to give up my seat. With a sigh i stood up for a candor who took it without so much as a thank you. " your welcome" I muttered. I stepped of the bus third to last practically skipping down the old dim hallways and into the main hall. rows of different clothes in certain colours according to their faction.
Abnegation:grey
Amity ; orange and yellow
Erudite : blue
Candor: white
Dauntless : black maroon red. Tho some liked to wear bright clothing.
Hey so this is a divergent cross over. I thought it was a cool idea so here you go.
The three of us joined onto the back of the abnegation line. We couldn't go to a tesr administrator of our own district so we would most likely end up with a dauntless. After a two hours wait ..,filled with casual convosation and cats' constant annoying foot taping, i finally stepped in to one of the small rooms. The walls were completely mirrors i looked over at my administrator, she was fiddling with the chair that i would be sitting in soon for my test. I turned back to the mirrors admiring myself. Long hair didnt look to bad. "Lemme guess your not going to pick abnegation tomorrow?" "How ever did you know?" I said with mock horror, the woman laughed but only for a short while. "Hi im tory i will be administering your test to day. When you take your seat i will hook you up with these" she held some sticky pad things with wires coming out the back. "Then i will inject you with a syrem that will give your mind some choices. You will be faced with a few tasks and depending on howYou accomplish them will be your score." She finished and beaconed me to come sit as i did she stuck thise weird things to my temples and picked up a large injector filled with brown liquid. She pressed the neddle in my neck, although it hurt really bad i forced my self to keep a straight face and a shut mouth. "Good luck" she wispered in my ear but i was almost to far gone to hear it. When my eyes fluttered open im in the school cafeteria and next to me are to baskets. In one a hunk of cheese, in the other a large knife. A voice comes from over my shoulder "choose" it says i spin around but no one is there. "Why?" "Choose before its to late" i couldnt choose not when i didnt know what was coming. I was staring at the baskets when they disappeared and a snarl came from across the room. A large dog lowers it self creeping forward. It lips peel away reaveling two rows of vicious teeth. I dont know what to do but there was a niggling feeling at the back of my mind telling me to lay down. With no other alternative i layed down and waitdd for it to attack me. I closed my eyes when i heard it bark and it surge forward at me clamping my eyes closed i awaited the pain. I felt a warm wet thing slid up my face startled i opened my eyes and it was sitting in front of me panting. Lieing down was a sign of submission to a dog .i pet it then stand up "puppy!" A small boy yells and runs forward. I try to warn him but its to late. The dog turns and snarls and snaps. It learches to its feet and runs for the boy who screams. Without thinking i sprint after the dog. I jump on it tacling it to the ground. The boy and dog disappear and i am back in the testing room. I open the door and walk into the hallway which slowly morphs into a bus with all the seats taken up. I stand next to a man in the isle and clutch a pole . The man is holding a newspaper. He whips his head around to me " do you know him?" He points to the article. .."Murderer uncovered" at the top of the page. The photograph looks familiar and i feel like i know him. I look back at the man "Do you!?" "I recognize him but i dont know how." "You can save me then!" He grabs my wrist. "Dont touch me i growl" he starts yanking me down the aisle " i said dont touch me i dont know you and if you dont let me go you will regret it." He keeps tugging so i right hook him he stumbles back then vanishes. I fall over for an unknown reason and wake up in the testing room. Tory looks at me with worry on her face. "Ill be back" she says sternly before leaving the room. When she comes back in she pulls of the pads from my temples and hurrys me out of the chair. "What was my result" she looks at me with sympathy then drags me to the back door. "It was inconclusive." "What does that mean?" I was getting very worried. "It means you got more than one result i shut off the power for a second so you wont be discovered and then manually logged you" "what were my results?" "Duantless candor eriudite and abnegation, the worst in years. You seem to have already worked out who you are and where your going keep to that even tho your divergent" i was shaking. What did this all mean. My heart was thumping so hard i could hear it. "What did you log me as?" The only question that came to mind "dauntless" she looked at me with worry and pain then opened the door and shoved me out before saying "you cznt trust anyone with this information."the shuting the door. I stood there stunned not remebering how to walk before i realised that i still got duantless. The future i had planned was still possible just a little harder. I walked out and home or rather my own prison. I came into my room to see cat and ragnor on my bed talkimg with the same dreamy look in both their eyes. When the door clicked behind me they finally broke out of their daze and looked at me. "Your alive you took longer than the rest of us." "Yea sorry something malfunctioned at it had to be logged manually." I plopped down on my bed. "Sooo what did u get?" I asked and they both started beaming. "Dauntless.!" The both blurted out at theSame time. Seeing then happy made me happy and i beamed aswell before saying "well that makes three of us." Me and cat screamed like girls and ragnor laughed his deep rough laugh. They had to go home for dinner but i told them to come back when their parents were asleep. We stayed up really late trying to guess what the best and worst parts of dauntless would be. We made up situations and imagined solutions it was early morning by the time they left to go to their last sleep with thier families. I laid in bed. In the morning i would thank the orphanage workers because although i wanted to leave as soon as possible they had looked after me and showen me the kindness that you could never forget. When i had a tantrum they would calm me and they suffered through all my teenage years. They also taught me that my feelings and who i am are best out in the open and not to bottle them up. I thought over the things they did for me and slowly drifted off. I woke up to the siren signaling the choosing ceremony is today. I groaned. My late night was taking a toll. I got ready. This was the last day i would ever wear these bland clothes. That thought woke me up. I ran into the main hall and rounded up every single orphanage workers. I thanked them sincerely and they shied away from the attention but i kept going then thanked and hugged each one individually before i was shooed out the door. Hurried to tag along ragnor and his dad. Caterina would have to go with her family as they didnt encourage her to leave and werent the most understanding towards her friends. When i caught up to rag we started marching with the rest of the teens and their parents. We walked into the choosing building and took our seats. Robert lightwood, the leader of abnegation who has a son and a daughterand his wife myarse, his daughter choosing to day and his son two years ago i remembered he deffected into a different faction i never payed close attention to anyone so i didnt remeber him. All i knew about his daughter was she was far to beautiful to be abnegation. Robert stood and started the ceremony. After about 20 kids were called ,to cut their hand and drop their blood into the different faction bowls, i was called i walked down the steps confidently already knowing my choice. I grabbed the freshly sterilised knife and slice my palm. I spun round the squeezed my palm till one crimson drop of blood sizzled on the burning coals that symbolised dauntless. Cheers erupted from the dauntless side of the room. I was the first to defect to them. I jogged over to the side where the dauntless stood and was almost tackled by the embraces. They hopped up to give me thier seats and i started laughing. They are so energetic and happy it made me feel the same. I waited till ragnor was called he sliced his palm without a second thought and squeezed his blood on the embers and then almost sprinted over to me i cheered and so did the rest of my faction. He sat next to me and a quiet attractive blond came and sat on the kid next to me. " hey, i have a feeling youll fit in fine, you seem a little crazy, being the first defect in all. Good luck" i laughed and replied " you dont know the half of it." we laughed all three of us, he smiled and got up. "Catarina" a loud voice called ragnor nudgged me just incase i wasnt listening. She stepped up wearily. Then turned to her family mouthed sorry and cut her palm, squeezing it over the dauntless bowl. This time ragnor started the cheering. Hooting and laughing. Making her blush and cough a laugh. After it was finished dauntless was the first to rush out. We ran down the steps and started running after the train i was near the front and i hauled myself into the second carriage. And started helping defects in starting with rag and cat. Them a tan smoth hand grapped mine. It belonged to none other than isabelle lightwood. She smiled and pulled herself in and said "thanks" before going and sitting next to cat and striking a conversation with her. I helped in two more a girl with the most brillant shade of orange hair and a nerdy but handsome boy. Both erudite who went and sat next to isabelle and joining the conversation. The boy and girl knew each other but isabelle didnt know anyone. I sat down a joined in we introduced ourselves. And talked till we heard hoots from the front carriage. I jumped up to see what was happening and saw a familiar face. The blond boy. "hey !' i screamed out of the carriage he turned to me. "Whats happening?" " you have to jump onto the roof of that building." i nodded and mouthed thanks then turned and yelled "we have to jump onto the roof of that building" the seemed a little shocked but stood up. The building was approaching. " together?" isabelle asked turning her head to the orange girl, clary, and cat. They nodded and held hands. I nodded to the nerdy one, simon, and ragnor to be encouraging then jumped. I hit the gravel hard and to avoid breaking my ankles i rolled and stood up. I felt a hand on my shoulder "impressive" i turned and saw the blond one "jace" he said holding out his hand " magnus i said shaking others landed and jaces head turned and he whistled slightly. "Who is she?" he asked me. "Thats clary" he turned and walked to her. I was mauled by izzy and cat " that was awesome" they screamed jumping up and down. I laughed and we walked up to where the dauntless born were standing. I turned searching for ragnor he was chatting with simon. " initiates" a man called from the gutter of the massive building i was standing on. " im eric if you dont know me. There are two entrances to dauntless and this is the one you will be using" he said with an evil grin and pointed over the edge. " who wants to go first" there was a lot of murmuring "i ll go" i said pushing my way through the crowd. Eric looked me up and down then smiled " very well" he stepped down. I hopped up on the gutter in a swift movement and looked over the edge. It was a long fall but it didnt scare me. There would be a net or something. I looked at jace he was smiling. Izzy was scared for me, i winked to eric before jumping of the edge. I hurtled to wards the ground through the dark hole in the concret of the path and landed with a huff on a net that i bounced around on for a few seconds, then the net was yanked to the side i rolled in that direction. A pair of pale strong arms pulled me down by my arms. He looked me up and down and smirked when he saw grey clothing. "What you get pushed?" "no" i said . "whats your name?" my eyes had finally adjuscted and i saw the beautiful man before me. He was tall, almost as tall as me, lean but ripped and had the most gorgeous blue eyes, his hair was a off black colour. He was beautiful. Damn. "magnus" i said he smiled then turned and yelled " first jumper magnus" before pushing me off the wooden box that was at least 1.5 meters tall. He laughed at the confusion and shock in my eyes at his sudden movement. I landed on anet of arms who cheered for me. I looked up at that man smiling, i couldnt get enough of him, and he returned it before the shriek of jace pierced the silence. When All the initiates got to the bottom we were split up into dauntless born and other. Dauntless born was lead of. " im alec ill be your instructor for you training, eric may join us occasionally but i will be your main. Follow me and ill show you around." his eyes had settled on me by the end of the sentence. I looked up and he seemed embarrassed and looked away scanning the rest of the faces before shock crossed his face. He turned and headed down a dark hallway. "Damn, hes hot" cat nudged me and wiggled her eyebrows suggestively. I rolled my eyes. But in all truth he really was.
I promise there will be more malec next time. If you enjoyed it so far leave me a review with honest feedback. This one was really long so the next ones will be shorter.
