I walked in the building where the ceremony was taking place

Once I spotted my family, I sat down with them

Marcus, the Abnegation leader, started his speech some minutes after the last people arrived

He spoke softly, about how happy he was that it was this time of the year once again

But I wasn't even listening

It was just too hard to decide what I really wanted, who I really was

"Rona Blair." he said, snapping me out of my thoughts

He had started calling out names

A slim figured girl with a serious face stood up and slowly walked towards Marcus

She took the knife and dragged it across her palm, letting the blood fall in the bowl that was filled with water

"Erudite" Marcus said as she just went back to her old faction

A lot of people just chose their birth factions, but some transferred to others

"Michael Prestle"

My brother stood up and went to the center of the room

He seemed really confident, even a little bored as he took the knife from Marcus's hands

He just stayed still for some seconds and then looked back at where mom and dad were

He dragged the knife across his palm and extended his hand to the bowl with rocks

But then made a strange sound and he moved his hand once again

"Candor," said Marcus

I watched as my brother went to sit with the people of his new faction

I stared at him and his gaze met mine

I side smiled, letting him know that I was happy he did what he wanted

He grinned at me and mouthed Your turn

"Callie Prestle"

I felt my sister's hand grip mine

Turning to look at her, I saw a girl-a young girl, scared of change

I had never seen that side of her, a more vulnerable side of her that she rarely let people see

"I will always be your sister." she mumbled and stood up

She walked to the bowls and took the knife

She dragged it slowly across her palm and let it fall

"Amity."

Was that really what she truly wanted?

I guess I will never find out

"Saraphine Prestle"

I stood up and went in front of the table with the bowls

I took the knife and stared at the flames

That was what I truly wanted

Taking a deep breath, I dragged the blade across my palm, watching the blood run down

I had to do what I thought was right

And as selfish as it was, that's who I am

"Dauntless," Marcus said as I let the blood disappear into the flames

I closed my eyes for a second, as a smile made its way onto my face

I turned around and walked to where the people dressed in black cheered as I got to them
