We live in a world of dragons and division. Once there was a great war between the dragons. The casualties to both human and dragons were high and our predecessors came up with a way to keep the peace. They made factions: Amity, Erudite, Dauntless, Candor and Abnegation. These factions are where we are split into groups according to our traits/skills. We also look after a specific type of dragon with similar traits to ours and we live in separate faction groups to stop another great war forming.
Amity is the house of the Gronckle (which is chosen by people of kindness and hardworking nature). Erudite is the house of the deadly Nadder (which is chosen by people of smart and logical thinking). Dauntless is the house of the Monstrous Nightmare (chosen by people of fearless and brave disposition). Candor is the house of the Thunderdrum (chosen by honest and orderly people, they will speak the truth even if it hurts). Abnegation, my family's faction, is the house of the Rumblehorn. We honour selflessness and we are the civil servants. We are also the governing faction because we are selfless and non-biased making us suited to the role. The only problem for me is that I don't know where I fit in within the faction system.
I got out of bed and walked to the kitchen, where I met my mother, Valka. We briefly exchanged greetings and I took my breakfast to the table. As tradition to Abnegation, I eat 25% and give the rest to the fraction-less. As I am of age (12 years old), I must take test today. The test will help me select my faction at the choosing ceremony in two days. I left and walked slowly over to the meeting hall where the test was being held.
Once entering the building, I was confronted with lots of people who were all bundled up into groups (the Fractions). We heard the sound of the horns as the leaders each came on stage, riding on top of their Factions Dragon. There is: Gobber the Belch (Leader of Amity), Gothi (Leader of Candor), Drago Bludvist (Leader of Dauntless), Grimmel the Grisly (Leader of Erudite) and my dad, Stoick the vast, (Leader of Abnegation). My father called out, in his jolly but fierce voice, "Let us start the testing, this where you will be injected with a serum. This serum will cause the occupant to face a series of virtual tests and see how you would react to each. Your actions will be graded and you will be told which fraction best suits you by your results. Please can every one stand and form an orderly queue and go to the room directed". I was told to wait outside the far door and I felt my blood boiling, worrying about what awaited me.
