HEY EVERYONE!
Thanks so much for reading my first fanfic (ever). I would really appreciate it if you reviewed or rated it... So to clarify from my suckish summary, this story is about a girl named Addie (Adelaide) who transfers to Dauntless along with her twin brother and their lives start to intertwine with the characters that we already know (and love). This chapter is just a test to see if you guys like the plot or not...
OH! Also, I would love some plot ideas!

Addie's POV
I wake up to the blaring of an alarm in my light blue bedroom. Putting on my (fake) blue spectacles, I get changed into a dark blue dress and a blue interview jacket and then head downstairs.
Today is the day my twin brother, Mason, and I choose which faction we want to be in for the rest of our lives. My aptitude test giver, Tori from Dauntless, said that I am Divergent for Dauntless and Erudite. She said that I shouldn't tell anyone because it is dangerous. I (being the Erudite I am) went to the library and did not find anything about why being Divergent is so dangerous…
"Good Morning Mother," I say shaking her hand, the normal Erudite greeting.
"Good Morning Adelaide," she responds. "Good luck today."
"Thanks," I murmur
"We'll love you no matter what, you know that right?"
I nod. I know this is true because we go visit my eldest brother Kenneth in Candor and my sister Cassidy in Dauntless. My eldest sister, Rebecca, was the only one to stay in Erudite. My last brother, Aiden, is factionless because he did some not so nice things to Mason and I. (A/N: More on that later...)
(Yes my parents had six kids...deal with it.)
My brother, Mason, comes downstairs, his spectacles and hair askew and refuses breakfast. Our parents then force us into the car and to the choosing ceremony.
Here goes nothing…
When we reach the hall, Mason and I stand next to each other on the concentric circle furthest from the center containing the five bowls in which each of us will drip our blood into.
Should I stay in Erudite with my family and subject myself to a life of knowledge or learn to be strong and free in Dauntless. My blue dress, now slick with sweat, clings to my back. I try to focus on the speaker, Johanna Reyes from Amity, but end up staring at the bowls.
I am knocked out of my daydreaming when I see the Candor girl next to me walk up to the stage. Only when I hear Johanna call, "Adelaide Irey," is when I realize how terrified I am.
I slowly make my way to the center and accept the knife I'm given. I look at my parents, then at Mason. He nods as if to say," It's ok to leave."
I close my eyes and slowly drag the blade against my palm.
