There once was a tribe in the Arctic region of the cold world, now extinct. They were called The Divergent. Their skin was so thin it was practically transparent. No one knows how they got this way; some say because they lived in the ice tunnels without sunshine for so long, their skin slowly started to rub away and was replaced by a flexible ice like material. And if they concentrated hard enough, they could mold the ice around themselves. One day Tris, a child of this small group, got out and a traveling human by the name of Demetri Adams found her. Tris was found riding on a huge male Polar bear's back, clinging to the bear for her dear life. Struck by the little girls strange unearthly appearance Demetri ran, cautiously, and caught up to them. When asked where she came from the little girl squeaked like a mouse and buried herself in the bears fur. Demetri slowly took the girl off the bears back, and set her down gently. When the bear started to growl Demetri got some spare food out and chucked as hard as she could, the bear followed the food as it was tossed about 40 feet away from them. She then convinced Tris to tell her name, and where she lived. Completely weirded-out Demetri, and feeling her mother instincts kick in, helped Tris try to find her way back home. They couldn't find the way to the tunnels entrance, no matter how hard Demetri and Tris searched for it. Giving up, Demetri took Tris home. What they didn't know was the government has been searching for these "Mythical" creatures for some time now. They have been camping out at the Arctic region for some time now, a camouflaged spy saw and overheard them. Without hesitation the spy came running back to the camp. Looking without a single find, the government became desperate, so they started to slowly melt away the ice with flame throwers. In panic The Divergent started building up indestructible crystal ice bubbles around themselves. When panicked they don't take account into that they are also half ice. Without realizing it they molded them selves into the ice bubbles. When the workers finally reached them, all they found were strange, perfectly round smooth crystal clear ice spheres. They took a few back with them, and stored The Divergent spheres in a huge freezing unit. Over the years the spheres deteriorated because they were not at the Arctic circle. Ten years later after keeping Tris as a secret in a makeshift frozen room in her house, Demetri decides its time that Tris must at least try one last time. Tris is 15 now, Demetri is 37. When they get there, there are small craters everywhere. Tris and Demetri dive into the nearest one, finding only the remains of her people, the spheres. Over time human shapes slowly became noticeable in the spheres. All dead. Frantically Tris starts screaming and clawing at the icy ground. "WHY?! WHY MUST YOU PEOPLE BE LIKE THIS?!" Crying little pearls of ice, Tris gets up and stumbles over to the center one, next a slightly smaller one. Falling hard on her knees she puts her forehead on it and breaks down in sobs. Demetri, speechless, walks over and envelopes Tris in a bear hug. After about an hour, shrugging Demetri off, Tris gets up again and crawls through the tunnels to the top. Standing like a half dead person, she turns around with a half smile "I have to save my people one last time. Thank you, for everything." With one last breath, she slowly envelopes herself in icy snow sphere. Demetri just stands there in awe, and watches as the sun bounces off the ice on it, sending rainbow colors of light into Tris's body. When the first strand of light touches Tris, she starts screaming, her back bending in a painful way. You can hear her back cracking, snapping as the light painfully makes it through her body. Forcing its way in. Demetri just stands there shrieking, she can't do anything while Tris is in there, crying out in horrible agony. It cracks open, Tris falls out... glowing. Demetri screams and leaps forward catching Tris in her arms. Demetri carefully stands Tris up while tears are running down both their cheeks.Tris stands up and in her hand, she carries a feather. Holding out her hand she gives it to Demetri "When you see this feather, or the lights in the sky, I hope you remember me." She turns around, and Demetri gasps. There a pair of beautiful white downy wings on Tris's back. And her hair has a soft glow around it, like a sort of halo. Tris walks up to the center sphere and puts her hand in it, and draws it out with an older similar looking female figure, her mom. And then does the same with the smaller one, pulling out a little boy. She goes to the rest of them doing the same, when all the people are out of the spheres, they mold into a wall of light and drift up to the sky. Tris stays behind and explains that since the world is in no way ready for this kind of people. So as the last living one alive, she has to be the guardian, the lookout, the protector. She told me this. And now I'm sharing my sad story with you. I still think about my little adopted daughter.. How beautiful, nice, and kind she was. I cry sometimes at night, I miss her. I'm on my death bed now, wishing...
P.S. This is my last entry to my diary.
