"Aww." she said, out loud. "It's ok, boy. Good boy." she mused. She felt it's fur on her fingers and scratched behind the dogs ear.

The dog gave her a cute, toothy smile before it faded away and the scene behind them shifted. When her blank surroundings took the shape of a bus, a man appeared before her. She was standing in the aisle and he was sitting in the seat in front of her. He held a paper in front of his face. He looked up at her, lowering the paper to reveal a scarred, angry face. "Do you know this man?" he said in a scratchy voice, pointing to a photo in the paper. The headlines above the photo read 'Brutal Murderer Finally Apprehended!'. She had a feeling that she did know the man in the photo, but it was clear that something bad would happen to her if she said so. "Well?" the scarred man asked, "do you?"

Sophia stared at the picture, a strange feeling spreading throughout her legs, torso, arms, head. She gulped. "No, I'm sorry I don't know that man."

Anger blazed behind the man's eyes and he looked as if he wanted to attack her, but then he calmed himself down and a look of helplessness washed over him. "Please," he cried, "if you knew him, you could save me!"

"I-I..." she closed her eyes, not knowing how to respond. He needed her help. It could save him. She could finally get the recognition she's always wanted. No one ever needed Sofia. Not anyone. "Yes." she responded to the man, her eyes bleak and glazed over, no emotion or feelings put into the words she was saying. "Yes, I know that man."

He smiled, revealing a missing tooth. Before anything else could happen, the scene disappeared.
Flare sat beside her in a metal folding chair, her head in her hands as she looked at the computer. "Another?" she muttered softly under her breath. She grabbed the girl by the arm and dragged her over to a door that was different than the one she entered through. "If anyone asks, the serum made you sick and I INSISTED you were sent home immediately, alright?" she said urgently.

Sofia looked at Flare in alarm, still shaking from the vision of the man smiling. "What do you mean? Didn't I pass, didn't I finish the test?"

Flare nodded slowly. "Yes, you finished," she said cautiously, "but... you got two results. It's called Divergent."

Sophia opened her mouth to say something then stopped and closed it. Two results? No one got two results. But she had. Before she could stop herself, Sophia asked a question that surprised her, a question that could have been answered later after all the many questions that could have come first, "What results did I get?"

"Abnegation," she said, her voice low, "and Amity."

Sophia, eyes wide, gulped. "So...what happens now?"

"That's up to you," she said, opening the door and gently pushing Sophia out before closing it again.
