Catherine snatched the dagger as she got to her feet and ran after the dog. She couldn't bring herself yo kill the dog. She hurled the knife with surprising accuracy at the dog's ear, hoping to startle it and make it stop.

The dog let out a heartbreaking yelp and fell to the ground, blood pooling around its ear. It began to whimper as it lay there, its eyes closed. Then, it faded away, along with the room full of mirrors. The scene shifted to a bus, and Catherine was in the aisle. The man sitting in front of her was scarred, and he held a newspaper. He caught her eye and said in a scratchy voice with a thick chicago accent, "do you know this man?" He tapped the image on the front page. The words above the picture read 'Brutal Murderer Finally Apprehended!' Catherine felt as though she did indeed know the man in the picture, but she also had a nagging feeling that something bad would happen to her if the scarred man found out.

Catherine looked carefully at the picture. "Nope," she said, drawing back and shaking her head.

He narrowed his eyes as they filled with suspicion, but that quickly changed to desperation. Still, cruelty lingered in his voice as he wailed, "If you knew him, you could save me!"

"I'm sorry, but i don't know him," she said firmly, looking into his eyes.

The man and the bus faded away.
Flare stared at her computer screen a moment more.
(wait a minute is she supposed to be divergent?)

(OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH k..................... then can we say she wouldn't look the dog in the eye because she knew that was a sign of aggression? because she needs to have something erudite)
Flare's eyes flicked from the screen to Catherine and back again. Eventually her urgent green eyes settled on Catherine. "Come with me," she said, grabbing her firmly, but not harshly, by the wrist and bringing her to the back door.

Catherine, startled, followed Flare, her eyes showing concern. Was this supposed to happen?

Catherine nodded and asked, "why?"

Flare sighed and turned to the child. She looked around as if someone might hear her even though they were in a room all alone. "Because," she hissed, her voice low, "they will kill you if they find out what you are. It's called Divergent. It means you belong in more than 1 faction and they can't control you. In your case, the factions are Dauntless and Erudite."

Catherine's eyes widened and she nodded silently. Her eyes showed thanks to Flare alerting her, as she would not want to be killed. "So what should I say if someone asks what my results are?" she said almost silently.
