I was born into the faction Erudite. I liked Erudite but I didn't like being in Erudite with my brother. I knew he was smarter than me and my parents favored him more even though they told me every night they loved us both equally I knew it was a lie. I'm 16 this year so this year I have to take the Aptitude test. To stay in Erudite or not; I definitely didn't want to stay because I knew I would have to stay with my tormentor. My parents weren't the ones that tortured me no it was none other than the person I looked up to as a child, my own brother. I would have to try so hard to cover the bruises and cuts he left on me. He told me the beatings would make me tougher. I remember he used to hang out with this boy and would always show off to him. His name was Eric. My brother, Vincent and Eric were good friends. But I wondered when Vincent did this to me if Eric noticed if he noticed the pain in my eyes or did I hide it all too well. The pain I went through. Everything seemed to get worse when Eric transferred to Dauntless. My brother was furious and blamed me. So you know what that meant he beat me more blaming me for him leaving. I would try to fight back but that made everything worse eventually I stopped fighting back I just curled up and laid in pain till he left. So I knew going into the Aptitude test I was hoping I didn't get Erudite. I knew I wanted to be Dauntless. I had to find Eric.
