1. Prologue

Prologue:

Disclaimer: I do not own Divergent.

In the five kingdoms of Chicago, there was a young girl named Beatrice Prior. Her mother, who had been the queen of her kingdom, had passed away before Beatrice was even one week old. Her father then ruled the kingdom alone. His kingdom was the Kingdom of Erudite. King Andrew loved his daughter more than anything. As Beatrice got older, King Andrew found that he would not be able to teach her everything about the life she lived. He married a woman named Jeanine Matthews. She was from Erudite and had been raised there by her family who were also all Erudite. She was the complete opposite of the king, though. She was greedy, envious of the other kingdoms, and very selfish. She only cared about herself, and no one else. Andrew, on the other hand, was very kind and caring. He was completely selfless and always valued other people's lives more than his own. He always took care of them and would make sure they had everything they needed.

One day, King Andrew set out on a journey to see the people in Erudite, for the castle was quite a ways from the village. He never returned to the castle. He was never seen again. All the kingdoms were searched and people were questioned, though no one had any idea as to where he could have gone. He was thought to have died in the forests of Amity. How though, no one can be sure.

Beatrice was devastated after hearing the news about her father's disappearance. Nothing was the same after he left.

Queen Jeanine took full power over the Kingdom of Erudite after hearing the theory of King Andrew being dead. She was still selfish and cruel. She ruled her kingdom in a horrible way. She took all of their money and used it for selfish purposes such as parties or new and unneeded clothing. She didn't care at all for the people around her in the castle. Hardly ever paid anyone their fair share of money. She didn't care about the people in the village. Took all of their money and hardly gave them a second glance. She didn't care at all for her stepdaughter, Beatrice Prior.

Okay so that is the prologue! The first chapter should be up next week and will most likely be a longer chapter than this one. Tell me what you think in the reviews!
