AN: So I rewatched Divergent this past weekend and I've been rewatching Naruto/Naruto Shippuden recently and my brain for some reason thought it would be interesting if the characters from Naruto were put into a universe similar to that of the Divergent series. By similar I mean if we ignore Insurgent and Allegiant and all of the characters from the Divergent series and just focus on the society that Divergent was built around, I think it would be pretty cool XD Don't get me wrong, I still want the original plot idea from the first book, just altered a ton. I'm also probably going to alter a couple of facts about some of the characters (just ages really) so don't kill me please.

Honestly, I haven't written a Naruto fanfiction in about four years since that was around when I stopped watching it and back then my writing skills were complete and utter crap. So basically, if this sucks, just tell me so I can improve. Also, if I leave out a character that you really enjoy that's relatively major in the Naruto series, just let me know and I'll see what I can do.

Also, if I put someone in a faction that you don't think they should be in, sorry, sucks, that's what my brain thought would be appropriate to their personality at the time.

By the way, despite some of the ships I support, I've decided that I'm going to let reviewers decide which couples will take place in this story. Whichever ship you think would be interesting for this story, I will write it. Even if they are in separate factions, I will find a way, just for you guys!

Ok! Now that I've just about written half a novel with just the freakin author note, let's get to the story!

Chapter 1- The Beginning of a New Life

I've never felt so nervous in my entire life. They just called back another ten names for the aptitude test and now I don't even have Sakura to keep me distracted now that she's been called back with the last group. I wish I could know her result. I'd follow her to whichever faction she chooses. Even if it's Erudite, I don't care. Okay, maybe I do care a little. I don't really want to be factionless after all. People already hate me, the last thing I need to do is give them a good reason to. The only people that don't treat me like I'm worthless are the stiffs, but it's not like they're really accepted by everyone either.

I was born in Amity, the faction that inspires peace and harmony, but I think everyone knows I don't belong there. I've caused trouble for them since I was little. They pretty much already see me as a member of Dauntless. I do too, honestly. I just don't know what the results will say.

"From Amity we'll be taking Naruto Uzumaki and Shikamaru Nara."

This is it. This is the moment. I stand and make my way towards the exit, meeting up with Shikamaru along the way, who only gives me a passing glace before dragging his feet into the hallway that leads to the aptitude testing rooms. "Well Naruto, good luck." I'm honestly shocked he even spoke to me, but looking back, Shikamaru's always been a relaxed kind of guy. I still remember the time that we were nine and he tried to hide among the fruit trees in order get out of work. It took Ino all of 20 minutes to find him.

I enter the room 3 where one of the many Abnigation volunteers waits for me. He smiles widely at me, before giving me a thumbs-up. "Excellent! Another youthful member of our society ready to embark on the road to his future! Please, take a seat. We will get started as soon as possible!" Yeah, this guy is a basket case. I don't really know how or why he got into Abnegation, because he is incredibly loud and his personality seems like it would attract anyone's attention. And what was with that goofy haircut? I thought all Abnegation members had to keep their hair as short as possible. This guy literally looks like he put a bowl on his head and tried to cut around it.

"Are you sure you're in Abnegation?" It's obvious from the clothes he's wearing, but seriously, what the hell?

"Of course I'm in Abnegation! I chose my faction just like you will choose yours!" I'm thrown another blinding grin before he motions to the chair. "Now, take a seat and we'll begin."

I almost forgot why I was here. My nerves rush back in full force and I almost think I'll be sick. Shakily, I sit down and the strange man hands me a vial of strange blue liquid.

"What's this?"

"It's for the test, no need to worry. Bottom's up!"

I hesitate. "What's your name?" I typically ask random questions when I get nervous.

"Guy. Might Guy!"

I return his blinding smile with a nervous grin of my own and drink the liquid until it's gone.

…

When I open my eyes I'm in a strange place. A blank plane that stretches on forever, lost in a sea of white. I turn in circles, finding nothing until I turn a final time and catch my reflection. It stares back at me, a blank expression in those eyes. "Choose."

I take notice of the tables on either side of me. One holds a slab of meat, the other a dagger. I look at them both carefully before deciding that if worse comes to worse, I need to defend myself. Once the handle is in my hand I notice that there is a dog and it looks pretty pissed. I realize now that I probably should have chosen the meat, because I don't know that I really have the heart to kill a dog. If it wasn't growling at me I think it'd be pretty cute.

The second the dog starts running I know I'm going to have to attack it. But that doesn't mean I need to kill it. When it gets close enough I slam the end of the handle into the dogs nose. It gives a loud whine, back off for a second, and then turns to growl at me with even more ferocity. Well that did nothing. I try again, this time kicking at the dog. It tries to bite me, but I manage to hit its nose again and the pain distracts it for a little while. My brain is scrambling for ways to keep myself or the dog from dying, but really I feel like I just made the situation worse.

"Bad dog!" Because that's going to do sooo much. Good thinking Naruto. No really, you're so smart. We should just make you the head of Erudite and you can be the prime example of what all young, intelligent kinds should be.

However, surprisingly, the dog has decided to back off. My small show of dominance seems to have at least somewhat convinced it that I'm not going down without a fight, and it's a fight that it probably won't win. I let out a breath of relief. Well at least that's over.

"Help! Please! Someone please help me!"

Perfect.

I turn in the direction of the voice and seem a woman, she's obviously from Abnegation and she's hanging from the branch of tall tree and looks like she's about to plummet about 30 feet down. How the hell did she even get up there? Whatever, that doesn't matter right now.

"Hold on! I'm coming! Don't let go, alright?" I shout, already starting the climb up the tree. It doesn't take that long. I've had a lot of practice the farms.

The woman doesn't respond, she just tries to readjust he grip on the tree to get a better hold. She's slipping, but I'm almost there. She's so close!

One hand slips, then the other and right before she falls to her death, I grab hold of her forearm and hold her there. She looks up at me with terrified eyes.

"Not you." She breathes.

"What?" Ugh, this is getting really confusing.

"Let go! Don't touch me! Not you!" She begins squirming and I have to fight to keep my hold as I wrap my legs tighter around the branch I'm on.

"What are you talking about?!"

"You're nothing but a nuisance!"

My grip on her arm tightens but as a result, the grip on the branch loosens. A nuisance. That's what I've always been, huh? A nuisance? Well, just you wait lady! I'll join Dauntless and I'll protect everyone in this stupid place and then you'll have to respect me because I keep you people safe! I'll keep everyone safe and everyone will stop hating me!

With my resolve, my grip tightens and I pull the woman up to the branch, making sure she can maneuver enough to sit down. She's still trying to get away from me, but I ignore her and start leading her back down the tree. I get her there, despite her resistance, and make sure she is safely on the ground.

"You're welcome." I mutter.

She doesn't offer any kind of response. I wasn't really expecting one anyway. I turn to leave, feeling slightly irritated, but at the same time pleased with myself.

After taking three steps, I fall right through the earth.

…

My eyes snap open and once again I'm sitting in a chair in the aptitude room. I look at the Abnegation man, Guy. His smile is gone and has been replaced by a grim line of pursed lips as he stares into my eyes.

"What was my result?"

He looks at the screen next to my chair, then back at me. "What do you want it to be?"

"Huh?"

"Listen to me." He whispers, suddenly close. I try to move away, but there's nowhere to go when I'm lying in this chair. "Your results were inconclusive. Do you know what this means? You can't tell anyone. Not friends, family, no one can know. Your results were Dauntless and Abnegation. I'll have to put one in manually so they don't come after you. Now which one do you want?"

I stare back at him for a moment, confused. "How did I get two results? How were they inconclusive?"

"Dauntless or Abnegation?" He insists, a seriousness taking over him that frightens me more that I could have imagined. "You're at higher risk in Dauntless, but if you that's what you want I'm not going to stop you."

"Dauntless." I breathe, trying to ignore his warnings. "I want to be in Dauntless."

Guy looks at me again, giving me a sad yet proud smile. "Dauntless it is!" He chuckles, suddenly looking just as energetic as when I first walked into the room. "Now, go home. Tell everyone that the serum made you sick. Don't forget, don't tell anyone about your results. About what you are."

"What I am?" I ask as he pulls me over to a back door.

"A Divergent." And with that, he pushes me out of the room and I'm left standing outside, wondering how on earth my life just went from bad to unbelievable.

AN: Blah! I don't like this beginning at all. I tried to change up the test from the original story at least a little bit so it wouldn't get too boring but I feel like I failed epically XD This chapter is pretty short, I realize that. Next one I'll try and improve! I don't typically have a ton of time for writing, but I'll try to update as soon as possible.

Please leave a review and tell me what you think! Let me know what you think I need to improve and what ships you desire and I will take everything into careful consideration and try to pull off something at least halfway decent with the next chapter.

Thank you for reading and hopefully I will see you next chapter!
