"I’ve always thought about the way I would die. And in those thoughts, I could never escape the utter inevitability that I would die in The Cleansings. The Cleansings took my father and now they will take me. It is my turn to die. It is my turn to serve society. I will offer our government the greatest offer there is to ever offer: my life."
Set in the distant future, teenager Gavin Dwyer lives in the perfect utopian city. However fifty years ago, his city was not so perfect. Crime and overpopulation led the government to usher in a new era. An era without impurities. The answer his government came up with: The Cleansings. An annual event, where a handful of individuals who have no use to society are carefully chosen, and executed at a public celebration. When Gavin Dwyer is chosen, he takes it as it is - a death sentence. However, not everything is how it seems in his seemingly perfect society.

COMPLETED (EDIT: In the process of being rewritten! Some of the writing might have you cringing! New chapters will be uploaded once they're all edited and written!) Meet Olivia, she's from Amity. You may think that everyone is Amity is just the happiest people in the world, right? Well, you're wrong. Not everyone at least. When Olivia transfers to Dauntless, where her sister transferred, no one could really figure out why. But will her past from Amity follow her? Haunt her, even? What about a certain Dauntless leader that seems to like her? "Training is over for today, everyone out!" Eric roars and as I'm about to walk through the door, I hear his cold voice yet again, "Not you Via, you stay," The others flood out and I stay planted near the door, he slowly stalks towards me and I find myself walking backward until I've hit the door behind me, I slightly jump from shock and let out yet another shaky sigh, he puts both of his arms beside my head, easily towering over me. "I'm going to break you," he starts, speaking darkly as he looks directly into my eyes, "I'm not sure how, but I will, and I'm going too," "You can't break something that's already been broken by someone else," I whisper, barely audible but I know he hears it. "Who could have possibly broken you? You lived in Amity, Baby doll," he snarls, and I push him out of the way with my shoulder. I walked out of there. (As of 3/28/2019) #1 in Divergent-12.7 stories.
