35 girls entered the selection. Only 1 can win.

Threatened to back down willingly
Inclosed anger in her heart for the king
Greeted by Lucy, Mary, Anne happily
Smiles creeping in their faces

A knock interrupts
Prince Maxon Schreave peeks in playfully
Giggling maids flee the scene
Conversation starts gleefully

Excusing themselves from prince and lady
Fast footsteps scurry away
Turning back to America, Maxon smiles
Presenting a new necklace from New Asia

Expressing the truth to her
Hiding in blankets they giggle
Suddenly busting the door, Officer Ledger pauses, his face blushing softly
Left the room followed by Maxon a few minutes later

Caught by Maxon and Kriss was Aspen and America
Told to enter her room, threatening to put Aspen in New Asia to die
Disappeared as quick as a flash
Anger shown on Maxons face

Gave America a bunch of letters
Saying Kriss was the winner, but not sure in his mind
Day of judgement came
All girls were there

Happy was Maxon and Kriss, but America slightly pleased
Augustus, his Northern rebel companion,    .present
Gunshots heard after a signal
Chaos was in the room

Sneering, a Southern rebel aims for Maxon but changes his mind, aims at America
Horror struck Maxons face, America unable to move
Fires his gun, but Maxon was hit instead

Tears fall from her almond, brown eyes
Clasping his hand to her heart, she smiles
After hours, everything was quiet
Aiming a gun, preparing to shoot, but stopped by a castle guard

Augustus smiles, reassuring her it was over
Found herself awake in the hospital wing
Lucy confesses her feelings to Aspen
Happily saying yes to him

Rushing to Maxons room, they parted way for her
Proposing to America, a yes was heard
Her wedding a beautiful one
Happiness prospered in her heart
