We're lucky to be in The City. They say the war was terrible. That the rest of the world was destroyed. The founders built the wall to keep us safe and they divided us into five groups, factions, to keep the peace. The smart ones, the ones who value knowledge and logic are in Erudite. They know everything. Amity farm the land. They're all about kindness and harmony, always happy. Candor value honesty and order. They tell the truth, even when you wish they wouldn't. And then there's Dauntless. They're our protectors, our soldiers, our police. I always thought they were amazing. Brave, fearless and free. Some people think Dauntless are crazy, which they kind of are. My faction is Abnegation. The others all call us "stiffs." We lead a simple life, selfless, dedicated to helping others. We even feed the Factionless, the ones who don't fit in anywhere. Because we're public servants, we're trusted to run the government. My father Marcus, is the leader of my faction. In everyone eyes my father is a good man and good father but that's all a lie the only person beside me who knows the real him is my older brother Tobias who left me two years ago after his ceremony. Anyways it all works. Everyone knows where they belong. Except for me I've always know I was different even my father and brother knew that, my brother always called me unique but my father hating that I was different he will always beat as much as he can to teach me to only be Abnegation because he noticed my Divergence at a young age, much like my brother, as I was energetic, happy and always running around; curious and questioning about subjects in school, and always wanting to read more and learn more; and, much to my father's dismay, had a habit of speaking her mind without really thinking of the consequences. My divergence greatly annoyed and angered Marcus as he was worried that others within the Abnegation faction would begin to say something about my selfish behaviour.
