NOTE: I do NOT own Divergent


Uriah's POV


When my eyes open I find myself in the school cafeteria but the tables are empty and outside it's snowing. On the table in front of me are two baskets, one with a hunk of cheese and one with a short-medium sized knife.

I hear a voice behind me, a woman's voice to be precise.

"Choose" it tells me.

I have no doubt what to choose I pick up the knife. The baskets disappear and I hear a door slam open, squeaking due to the lack of oil it has. Through the door comes a dog with a pointed nose. It stands a few yards away from me. Then it starts coming towards me.

I think about throwing the knife but however vicious the dog is I cannot hurt animals. I scan my brain for a solution to the problem at hand. I jump onto the table next to me, luckily I have long legs so I only wobble a bit when I land. Turn around and stare right into it's eyes, giving it my biggest glare. It comes at me slower until it finally stops and starts to whimper and whine.

I close my eyes but when I open them a little girl is standing fifteen metes away from the dog. She then starts crying out "Puppy!"

Stupid girl, can't you see it's not a puppy. Then the dog starts to bark and growl at the little girl. It starts to stalk towards the girl, body low to the ground.

"Watch out little girl, that's not a puppy, it's a vicious dog that won't hesitate to kill you!" I shout to her. She doesn't appear to hear me.

"Puppy, Puppy come here" she's still calling. I don't hesitate, but I do think.

I jump off the table, slamming myself into the dog and smashing it's head against the table. I stand up and close my eyes again, hoping for a better thing to appear.

I open my eyes and find myself in the test room alone. I walk towards the door, pushing it open and finding myself on a bus. I'd only been on one once before and that was when I was too small to remember it.

I cast my eye around the bus and my eyes settle on a man near me who's holding a newspaper. I can't see his face but I can see his hands. They're scarred, like he'd been in a fight and they were clenched around the newspaper like he wanted to rip it.

"Do you know this man?" He asked me tapping the picture on the front page with the headline

"BRUTAL MURDERER FINALLY APPREHENDED"

My eyes drift down to the picture It was of a young man with a plain face and a beard. I feel like I know him yet I don't know why.

"Well, do you?" he demands in an angry manner.

"No, I don't"

"Do you?" he asks again.

"I told you NO I DON'T!" I yell at the man this time.

He stands up and I see his face. He's wearing dark sunglasses and his mouth was bent into a snarl.

"You're lying, you're lying!" he shouts at me, leaning in close to my face.

"I am not" I say back in a firm voice.

"I can see it in your eyes."

"Look I don't know why you're asking me but I don't know who he is. Even if I did I wouldn't help you because you've been shouting at me and you don't deserve my help" I tell him in my quite, dangerous voice thinking it's the most logical explanation.

Then my eye lids fall shut.


I wake up, my eyes adjusting to the brightness of the room.

Natalie is behind me with an unsettling expression on her face. I wait for her to tell me what's wrong but she doesn't, just pulls the wires from my forehead. I sit up still wondering what's troubled her.

"That was...interesting" she tells me at last.

"Excuse me a second, I'll be right back."

Oh no this is the moment I've dreaded. I sit breathing heavily, wishing myself to be calm. I try deep breathing. I doesn't help.

Finally the door opens again and Natalie comes back in.

"I'm sorry about that Uriah, it seems that your results where inconclusive. Typically each stage eliminates one or more fractions but in your case only three have been ruled out."

Oh no, this is not good.

"Which three were ruled out?" I ask in a shaky voice.

"Candor, Amity and Abnegation just."

"what do you mean by just?"

"In helping the girl you could have had Abnegation but because you didn't help the man and shouted at him that ruled in out" she tells me.

"That leaves Erudite and Dauntless. People who get this result are called...-"

"Divergent, I know."

She gives me a puzzled look wondering how I knew that.

"Uriah, you must not tell anyone about this. It is very important"

"I know we're not meant to, if the wrong person found out they'd kill me."

"Just make sure you don't, being Divergent is extremely dangerous, do you understand?"

I nod my head, knowing I'll have to tell my mum and Zeke anyway.

I stand up and she lets me go to the door.

"Remember, what I told you" she calls after me.


I meet James, Marlene and Lynn by the tracks after Marlene had done her aptitude test.

"Where were you?" James asked me as soon as I was in earshot.

"We were looking for you."

"I needed some air, that test freaked me out."

"I know, why were these tests invented?" inquired Marlene.

I just shrugged as the train approached. I jump in lifting Lynn in after me.


So Tell me if you liked it or not, Thanks!
