The life of Rebecca Matthews

ceremony

As we arrive at the ceremony, which is held at erudite this year, we get into the building and begin to talk to all of the leaders. Firstly, we speak to johanna reyes, the amity "Johanna." My mother says with a hit of hatred in her vocie,"Jeanine," johanna returns with a much nicer tone."How are you so amity so happy all the time?" It's almost sounds like she's trying to make fun of her "well you know our values, right, or do we have a stupid erudite running the factions." They have allways spited each other, but this is going too far now. My mother turns on her heels and walks away to avoid further conflict, and we walk over to Max and his second in command. The traitor himself is my brother Eric Coulter he left the same year as tobais Eaton, so not many people noticed he left. As soon as he arrived at dauntless, he changed his name to Eric Coulter to hide the fact he's a Matthews. I miss him he was always there for me with our mother and helped me after a bad night with her, but I assume mother does not think the same as me and just glares at my brother and thankfully Max fanilly brakes the tension "Miss Matthews nice to meet you again it has been a while." I decide to speak up."Sorry to interrupt, but the correct termonalage would be nice to see you again as meet refers to the first time you see them." There's shock on Max's face. I don't dare to look at my mother as I have spoken out of turn, and there's a smile  plastered on my brothers face. "Erudite will miss you, rebbeca." I pretend to look confused."She's picking erudite maxwell." Looks like I don't have a choice in my faction."Well, we should be going. Remember to pick your faction, Rebecca, not hers." Eric says then walks off with Max. we walk over to candors leader, Jack Kang. I don't like him he forces me to have truth serum every time I sneak over to candor and truth serum hurts like hell "Jack how have you been?" My mother asks."Good when your daughter's not sneaking onto my compound jeanine." I'm getting glared at now."I did no such thing." I lie slyly."Then do you want more truth, serum rebbeca?' I shake my head "Good." And Jack walks off, and we go to see Marcus. I never liked him he hurt Tobais. I called him Toby, and maybe we kissed once, but then he left for dauntless, and I haven't seen him since I just hope that he hasn't become factionless. My mother nudges me, and I look at her in confusion. "Mr. Eaton asked you a question, rebbeca. Answer it." I look towards Marcus "Sorry Mr. Eaton." I hate calling him that, but I have too."What did you ask." He sighs."You should have been listening. But I asked what faction they are you going to pick." I can lie to Marcus, and nothing will happen "Erudite of course, where else would I pick speaking of that? I should probably go before the ceremony starts." And with that, I blend into the rest of the sea of blue. Jeanine takes centre stage and begins to speak, "Welcome to the chossing ceremony. Remember, we do recommend you pick the faction you got in your aptitude test, but you are free to pick whichever faction you like." There's silence throughout the room, and with that, the first name is called "liam Hemsworth." He comes out from the dauntless section and cuts the palm of his hand open, letting his blood drip onto the hot black stones and return to dauntless as they cheer many others go up but now the time I'm dreading arrives "And fanilly Rebecca Matthews." I anxious walk up to the stage before I slice my plam open I take off my jacket and move my hair so everyone can see what my mother has done to me There's boos and shouts directed all at my mother then I cut my hand open and pick dauntless they welcome me as we all leave as I was the last. I'm told we have to run to jump on to a train witch I do easily. I see my best friend from abrogation struggling to get on, so I help her up. "Still Besties?" I ask her."Still besties." She confirm we see we have to jump "together?" She asks "together." I reply we jump off and land on the roof of a building."Is it just me, or are they trying to kill us already." I turn to see an erudite boy, but I recognise him."Ben, they won't kill us, I think." I tell him,"there's doubt in your voice that mean you think we could die." I roll my eyes at him, and walk away
