Candor, The most monotonous faction, full of over opinionated ass holes where honesty is valued. Unfortunately this is my faction soon to be my old one. Today is the day where every sixteen year old chooses which faction they truly belong in where they will spend the rest of their lives. I know where I belong. Dauntless. They are protectors of the city. They are fearless and in my opinion complete bad ass's. Dauntless is the only faction that interests me I mean, they jump to and from a moving train is that cool or what? It's certainly better than being surrounded by a load of honest suck ups. I have to admit being candor does have it perks, whenever I have been in trouble at school teachers always take my side because of my faction, im supposed to be honest, this is why I know I could never belong here.
I sit restlessly waiting with my new faction for the painfully boring choosing ceremony to end. I sneak a quick glimpse towards my father who is staring at the floor I can see his vein bulging from his screwed up face, That is how I know he is angry. I look away quickly so I don't look weak. Dauntless is my family now and I have to let my old one go.
"Beatrice prior" The man standing behind the 5 bowls that represent each faction calls. A small blonde haired girl rises from her seat to the right of me. Her clothes are all grey which means she is from abnegation the faction that values selflessness. As she walks down towards the bowls she looks back at the crowd I assume she is looking at her parents. It is then that I realise her beauty. She has a narrow face, wide round eyes and a long, thin nose. My eyes travel down her slim body. She quickly clutches her grey robe as she continues to walk forward but I can still see her small hands shaking. She takes the knife from the man and cuts her hand letting the blood roll down her palm. I lean forward fascinated by her. She holds her hand over the bowl representing abnegation. I close my eyes disappointed that I will never get to meet her, no girl could make me regret my choice of faction. The silence is interrupted by cheers, I open my eyes startled by the random cheering coming from the people beside me. She sits down 3 rows in front of me. She chose dauntless. An overpowering feeling of excitement rushes through my body as I realise that I might have a chance of getting her.
So what did you think of my first chapter? Please leave me some reviews and let me know what thought and how I could improve. Maybe suggest some ideas for the story.
