A/N: Hey here's my new chapter and it only took so long because i wrote a one shot and i didn't have any reviews to inspire my to update.

Disclaimer: I wish I owned Divergent, but I don't , and also why would Veronica Roth wish she owned Dibergent if she already owned it. So basically I don't own Divergent. :(

Anyways here's is what all two of the people reading this have been waiting for. :)


After a brief argument between some Erudite man and my mother we end up in the front of the line for the elevator and It only takes us minutes to get to the ceremony. Once we get there the rest of my family goes over to the other Candors and takes their seats, and I go over to the other 16 year olds. This year for some reason there are not that many of us, so the ceremony should go quick. One of the leaders from Amity gives the speech but I don't listen to much of it because I'm trying to figure out what I will decide to choose. When I took the Aptitude test the results were for Erudite and Dauntless. They truly did surprise me and I was also a little confused that I didn't get Candor as even one of my results, but now that I think about it I have always been an okay lier and found it easier to do when necessary. Besides I wouldn't want to stay Candor even if my Aptitude was for it, because I think I would be able to spend another minute with my mother. What happened earlier was only the tip of the iceberg, although she has never laid a hand on me to punish me she has done far worse with just her words.

-Flash Back-

"Hey Maddie let's go inside my mom made us sandwiches," I say as I pulled my best friend with me towards my house.

"Okay, I hope she made turkey sandwiches." Maddie said as I swung the door open, and rolled my eyes at how my closest friend still couldn't remember that I was a vegetarian.

" Jaaaade! I told you to pick up your dirty clothes this morning, but look what I still see on the floor," my mother yelled at me, and caused my smile to disappear immediately and be replace with a frown. The articles on the floor weren't even mine they were Iris's.

"Mother they aren't even mine, their Iri-" I don't even finish my sentence before I was interrupted.

"I don't want excuses pick it up now, one... two..." I couldn't stand it when she counted to three. It made me feel like a child when I was really a 15 year old."three," just as the word left her mouth I already had the clothes basket and started to clean them up. It was so embarrassing to have my friend see my mother yell at me like that.

"I can't stand it when you act like a two year old and don't even listen to me, it's like I'm talking to a baby." She added on with a sigh.

"Maybe I should go, thanks for having me over, Jade." Maddie says and walks out of the house rather quickly.

"She is such a nice girl, always so polite. Wish you would be more like her." She says the last part slightly quieter but it was still meant to be heard.

I spent the next few minutes cleaning until my mother butted in again with another comment, " I'm so ashamed that your cant even follow a simple instruction and are always disappointing me." It was little comments like this that led to my low self-esteem, and kept chipping away at my confidents. At least that time wasn't as bad as previous times and didn't cause me to breakdown in tears.

-End of flashback-

"Jaydalyn Morgans" I'm snapped back to reality as the Amity leader announces my full correct name that I love so much more than 'Jade'. As I walk up to the bowls I relies that I haven't mad my decision yet between Dauntless or Erudite yet. Without even thinking I take the knife a slide it across my hand but hesitate to look and see my mother with a look on her face that basically screams 'choose Candor' while my father's look says 'follow your heart'. As I stand close to both the coals and water I think of how I have been compared to my brother all of my life and if I do go to Erudite then I will surly be compared to him for the rest of my life, but if I choose Dauntless then it will be a fresh start, a new leaf. With that I take a small step closer to the bowls and open my hand, and hear the sizzle of my blood as it hits the coals. I am brave...hopefully.

I don't even bother to look at my parents and rest of my family because I already know what their faces will say about me. Thankfully I don't stand with the Dauntless for long since there are not that many 16 year olds this year, and there is only one more kid who doesn't hesitate to pick Amity, I wish my choice was that easy. As soon as the Amity leader thanks us all for coming, the Dauntless members make a sprint for the door and down the stairs. Once we get outside I become overwhelmed with joy, because they are starting to do my favorite thing, run. I don't even hesitate, I start off with a brisk jog that slowly becomes a fast paced run, and I feel like I'm flying.

I don't notice that I'm right behind the five Dauntless members who are in the front of the pack, until some member from behind me says, "would you look at that, a Candor almost in the lead."

"Not for long, just wait till we get to the train," another member comments.

This just makes me more upset so I run even faster so that I'm only three feet behind the two members in the lead. But I slow down a bit when we closer to the train so I can see how to get on the train. Eventually I'm next to the rest of the initiates, who seem to be shocked that we have to jump on a moving train. I just ignore them until I jog next to the train and attempt to pull myself up, but my foot slides a little and I slip.
