So this is the second chapter of my story. I promise that is longer than the other one. Like I said before, I don't know how my updating schedule will be like. I will try and update everyday when I can or maybe I will only update Saturdays. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this chapter.


Chapter 2

Choosing Day. Finally, it's here. My father cuts my hair and twists it into a bun. "There. Now go and get ready. It's a big day today.", he says. Yes, a big day indeed. The day I finally escape this prison. We make our way to the Hub when I'm done changing. My aptitude test was inconclusive. The woman who administered my test was someone named Tori, a Dauntless woman. She told me to trust Beatrice Prior, Natalie Prior's daughter. She seems like a nice person. I haven't really met her because my father likes to keep in the house. He claims that I will ruin his reputation in Abnegation. Tori called me Divergent and said that some people think that Divergents are a threat to society. She told me to be careful and not to tell anyone ever. I thanked her and went out the back that day. I don't know what will happen today at the Choosing Ceremony but I am sure of one thing. I will choose Dauntless and reunite with Tobias. That is, if his name is still Tobias. "Melody Eaton", my father calls; bringing me back to reality. I stand from my seat in the Abnegation section and make my way to the bowls. I already see Beatrice with the Dauntless. I look at the Abnegation bowl that has grey rocks. I see the bowl and I see my father. My heart starts to beat faster. I can't stay in Abnegation. If I stay, my father will rule my life forever. I look at the Dauntless bowl with its hot, black coals. I see my brother and Beatrice when I look at the bowl. If I choose Dauntless, I'll be free from my father and be able to live my life the way I want. I take the knife and cut my hand a little; I enough to let blood drip. I put my hand above the Dauntless bowl and watch as my blood drips into it. I look to se my father's face and, sure enough, he looks angry and disappointed. I smile and he says, "Dauntless". The Dauntless cheer and I walk over to sit next to Beatrice. Finally, I'm free. Free from my abusive father. Free to be me.


I hope you enjoyed this chapter. I will try and post another one today or tomorrow. Anyway, have a nice day!
