Daring to be Dauntless (A Divergent Fanfiction)
I fought for my life while living with my uncle, who abused us children daily. I fought for the answer to the choice that would change my life forever- picking a home, staying in Abnegation with my abusive uncle, going with my cousin only for him to merge off into a new crowd- the Dauntless, or go to where the type of people and the knowledge, are in my blood- Erudite. I struggled to see the light in everything that was happening around me- the attacks on my family, the mind control, and the secrets. I struggled to fit in when my heart was obviously more reckless. I lost love, family, my heart- for this, this war plan. I lost Tobias, my sanity, my blood. I was part of this scheme, this war plan on Abnegation and the mind control over Dauntless; I wish I could say I had no idea of the danger- but I do, I know the full extent of the damage that has been done. I had a serious part in it, I worked side by side with the master minds and the rest of their evil genius goons. I became one but I still held onto one thing- and that one thing, is helping me end this war. Tobias. One Choice Decides your Friends- One Choice Defines Your Beliefs- One Choice Determines Your Loyalties Forever- But One Choice Never Dictates your Heart.Abgeschlossene Geschichte

214 [Am I real]
"In a world of newness and uncertainty, I caught a glimpse of you, and it felt like a dream. It was as if fate had brought us together, whispering promises of hope and connection. In that brief moment, I dared to believe that what I saw was real, a reality I yearned to embrace". ♡ Joyce, a 12th-grade student, embarked on a journey of adaptation in a new school, where everything felt unfamiliar. She was a shy girl, struggling to find her place, keeping to herself and avoiding social interactions. Once, she was different, surrounded by childhood friends and familiar faces. But circumstances changed, and she had to leave them behind. That's when Alfred entered her life, a fellow student who shared the same experience of starting anew. His outgoing and friendly nature breathed life into Joyce's world, encouraging her to be herself and find confidence. It was like he had a magical touch that ignited a newfound belief in herself. But then, a storm of emotions overcame Joyce, and tears streamed down her cheeks. She carried a heavy heart as she walked through the school halls, searching for Alfred in vain. He was nowhere to be found, leaving a void in her soul. Yet, in the midst of uncertainty, she clung to the special pen he had given her, a tangible reminder of their connection. It was the only solace she had as she yearned for answers...♡Abgeschlossene Geschichte
