Divergent - Amity Initiate

This is about a girl called Nera (full name Neralia) who is in Dauntless but then chooses Amity. No copyright intended, a section of this is from the actual Divergent book, which is written by Veronica Roth and it is hers to own.

The Serum

The Serum
I stare at the shining needle, my face pale.
"I don't think I can do this!"
"Yes you can!" Jo answers, holding the needle steady. I wince as it goes in.
"What will the peace Landscape be like?" I ask.
"You'll be fine." Jo answers, and that is the last thing I hear.

I wake in a desolate landscape. I am surrounded by a kind of trench. I hear gunshots.
"Oh my God!" I scream as there is a huge explosion next to me.
A man in army uniform walks up behind me. "Oi, your meant to be out there!" he says, and hands me something.
A gun.
The last time I remember holding one of these is at Dauntless headquarters. My stomach starts heaving and I vomit on the floor.
"Go!"
Oh my God, I think, I am going to fight in a war!
He shoves me out onto the battle field. There are guns blaring, people shouting.
I need to do something.
I hear a sound next to me. A body falls. Then another.
All this death, I have experienced it all already. I have had enough of death.
I drop my gun. It clatters on the floor. Then I walk. Right in front of the enemy.
"STOP!" I shout,my voice defiant.
Everyone's weapons fall silent.
"What the hell are we doing?" I ask the air, and it gives me the answer.
"We are creating death and destruction, for what? What are we trying to achieve?"
More silence.
"Look!" I say, tears of fury and sadness coming to my eyes as I signal the hundreds of thousands of bodies riddled across the land. "Look what war leaves behind! Nothing! Nothing except death and hopelessness and despair and GRIEF!" I yell.
Eyes are on me, everywhere. I stand tall. "Wars are started because of fear, because people are afraid of other people. And others who fight in wars are helping in cowardice."
Gun points are on me. I continue. "You are all cowards. All of you. You all want power and money. Is that true?"
I see soldiers squeezing the trigger of their guns. I wince and wait for the pain.
Then I hear something.
Something that makes me smile.
Guns. But not guns being fired.
Everyone is dropping their weapon.
The sound is beautiful. I hear clapping and then cheering. People hug each other. The opposition shakes hands and there is smiling faces everywhere.
The image starts fading.
I am back in the lab where I got the serum. Jo is standing there.
"You did great, kid." she says, and I can see tears in her eyes.
"Thanks..." I smile. "I hope the world would a bit more like that."
"Yeah..." Jo looks distant - a kind of sorrowful distant.
"What is it?"
"Just..." she looks at me, "what you just said - 'I hope the world would a bit more like that,'"
"So? What about it?"
"Well, it's just... Maybe the world never will be like that." she finishes, turning away.
"Why do you think that?" I ask, slightly worried.
"Well, take your former faction for instance." Jo answers.
"What, Dauntless?"
"Yeah. What was the method of training you used?"
I shrug. "Mostly we beat each other up."
"See?"
"See what?"
She turns to me. "Tell me honestly - do you think that is teaching people to be brave?"
"Well...no." I have never really thought about it.
"Exactly! The world is just a big wreck filled with idiots and smart asses!"
"Jo..." I lean forward and touch her arm. "Don't worry - Amity will protect us from Jeanine."
Jo smiles. "Thanks..." she says, "You're right. Sorry, I just... Guess being in Amity for so long made me crack!"
"Come on," I say, standing up, "lets go get some lunch."

This is awesome! A couple of errors (like Dauntless are the only ones who jump off of trains, the bread doesn't actually have that effect unless you're given the straight chemical and too much of it, etc.) but otherwise, AWESOME!!!
