Prologue

(Sorry if it's short will make the update longer)

12 years old

"Can you come with me today Daniel" I asked just having finished my history lesson with Angelo

"You've been in meetings with Gibs all week" I complained.

"Sorry El this is the last one I promise I'll come tomorrow" he said looking over at my Angelo his friend and my tutor who was waiting patiently for him at the door.

"Pinky promise" I tease poking him in his waist.

Daniel just rolled his eyes and chuckled at my childish behaviour he had become accustomed to. He is 16 now but he acts like he is a man already.

"I pinky promise" he said "But now I've got to run"

Satisfied I begin to walk towards the abandoned roof top I called mine.

"Be back in 2hrs el" Daniel called as a began to disappear

"Yes brother dearest" I replied giving hums wink before running off, his laughter echoing behind me.

When I reached the roof I lay down and look over our city. It had been 12 and a bit years since my parents had abandoned me in a box outside what used to be a hospital. I often wondered even now what had been so wrong with me that they decided to just leave me there. Most people if given the choice would rather die then live like us faction-less with no food or home we often rely on Abnegation to supply us. But for me I have found a family and a strength in my need to survive and I don't regret that.

I was found by Angelo another abandoned child and Daniel . They just three themselves alerted Avery and Gideon our leaders and Daniel's parents of my whereabouts. Every since then me, Daniel, Avery and Gideon have become a close net family. Angelo was a different story I had always been around him but never really talked till he began to tutor me. He leaves so often on jobs though he is also only 16. My best friends and sisters Auriella and Saskia tell me he know a lot of people and is gathering supplies but you never no. I have a feeling we will get along very well, there is a connection maybe because we are the abandoned children.

Locate next to Abnegation we are a lucky section if is very peaceful but life is still tough, they are the ones that keep me going. Avery always tells me 'you can do whatever you want you brilliant girl' as her brown knotted hair falls on her face. I just smile at her she is so sweet and truthful I bet she would be candor.

Watching over Chicago the sound of people below me waits me from my day dream. It must be the day of the aptitude test, I can see the children leaving school and heading there now. It all just makes me wonder if I had a choice what would I choose, would I be brave, intelligent, peaceful, selfless or honest.

Because deep down I dreamed of a life in black!
