Divergent and Dangerous: Divergent x Reader

Chapter One: Aptitude Tests

Just so you know, I do not claim any of the characters, except the ones that I created myself. All of the characters and story go to Veronica Roth. I hope you guys enjoy this chapter. If people want me to continue, please tell me in the comments, and I'll try to make it happen.

(Reader's P.O.V.)

Today is finally the day. I'm already sixteen and a half, so I can finally participate in the Choosing Ceremony! I'm so happy I can choose my own fate without my father having to decide for me. I hope when I choose today, he'll finally understand that I'm not a little girl again, and i can make my own decisions. Other than my father, my family is great. I have my mom, Dana, and my brother, Jeremy. They're kind, and understand that I am a grown person and am perfectly capable of taking care myself unlike my father, Ezra Prior. I am also no ordinary lady. I have an ability to know things that other people don't. I'm not sure how it all happened, but I haven't told anybody. For example, I can tell what someone's real name is even if they use a fake one. My ability only happens sometimes, and sometimes when I want it to.

I walk to school in my gray outfit, for Abnegation, and with my hands dangling forwards and backwards. Jeremy is walking with me and talking about something I don't quite understand. I can't even hear a word he's saying because I'm so nervous about the aptitude tests today. And Jeremy, on the other hand, couldn't care less. I wish I was as brave as him. We finally get to school, and there are, as usual, lots of people trying to get in at once. I get to class and for some reason, I feel like everyone's looking at me. I sit down and listen to the teacher drone on and on and on about faction history. I've already heard this lesson a thousand times, but the teacher wants us to be very well educated because someday we might "need it."

(Time Skip brought to you by Four can sometimes be mean)

I wait with my faction at a table while a lady says names for us to take the aptitude test. I'm so nervous that my hands are shaking, and I feel like it's a thousand degrees. I wait and wait, and finally she calls my name. "From Dauntless: Mark Jones and Kathy Long. From Erudite: Caleb Powers and Debby Lou. From Amity: Vanessa Halls and Liam Teller. From Candor: Mary-Jane Hudson and Isaac Matthews. And finally from Abnegation: Danny Smith and Y/N Prior.

I can't keep my hands from shaking so I try to hide then by crossing my arms. I walk into a room with a reclined chair in the center and mirrors all around. I see a woman with long dark hair-much darker than my light brown hair-and she walks towards me and closes the door behind me. I stare at my reflection since Abnegation aren't allowed to look at themselves for more than a minute. The woman smiles at me and says,"Hi it's nice to meet you. I'm Elena. Your from Abnegation right?" "Yes," I say. "I can tell by the way you look at your reflection." I just smile at her. She motions for me to sit down and I do. She explains to me how the test will be a simulation, and to do whatever you think is right. She first injects me with a liquid to help me go to sleep and enter the simulation, and then she puts wires on to my temples, and the test begins.

The next thing I know, is that I'm in the same room with mirrors and I look at my many reflections. I hear a voice behind me, and it's me! "Choose," I/she says in a demanding tone. I look behind me and there are baskets with cheese in the them, and there is a knife, both on tiny platforms. "Why?" I ask. "Just choose," she says in an even more demanding tone. "But WHY?" I demandingly ask. She just smirks and I hear the deep and loud growl of an animal coming from behind me. I turn to see a giant dog that bears it's vicious teeth at me, still growling. I try my best not to run from it by remembering what I know about animals. I remember to show a sign of defeat and surrender by kneeling on the ground. I breathe as steady and as deep as I can as the the dog is about to pounce. Suddenly I hear whimper-like noises and realize that the dog in front of me and is know submissive to me. I giggle from relief and pat the dog's head. I hear a girl say "Puppy!" but the dog goes back to it's predatory ways and starts running at the girl, She runs in fear and I stand and chase the dog. I pounce on it, and then I wake up in the testing room with Elena staring at me in shock. "What is it? I ask. "What were my results?" "They were. . . . . . . . . . . . inconclusive." "What?" I ask as I stare at her with confused eyes. "Your results were Abnegation. . . . and Erudite. . . . . . . . and Dauntless." "What does that mean? How can I have more than one faction?" "The only answer I can think of," she starts to get quiet,"Is that your Divergent." A million thoughts race through my brain. What's Divergent? Is this a good thing? Are there other people like me? But mostly I wonder, What faction do I choose? I can't hold in all of my questions. I ask her some of my questions but I don't get specific answers. She tells me to choose whatever faction I want to choose, and to let your heart decide.

She shoves me out the back door and comes up with this lie that I got sick from the serum she injected me with, and was sent home early. I get home and try to think of my options. I can choose Erudite and live a life of knowledge. I could choose Abnegation and live a life of selflessness. But I could also choose Dauntless and live a life off bravery and courage. I can't believe that if I choose Dauntless or Erudite, I'll have to leave behind my mom and brother. But on the other hand, if I go to the Dauntless faction, I can sneak back after the initiation ( if I make it ) and stand up to my father for being so strict and cruel. I never said this to anyone, but while my mom and brother are away he would sometimes hit me and would leave bruises and cuts on my body. I hide it from everyone by wearing long sleeve shirts and pants. This is the reason I hate my father. This would be the reason I would join Dauntless.
