Above is the very poorly directed and scripted version of this scene in the Insurgent movie...No wonder I remember absolutely NONE of it....>.>

Niles opens the black box and there are two syringes filled with blue liquid attached to needles attended for Tris and I.

He pulls an antiseptic wipe out of his pocket and gives it to me. I almost laugh. I've injected needles into myself so many times I wouldn't be surprised if my neck is immune to pain now.

"The injection site is your neck." He says. I wipe the antiseptic over my neck and he takes one of the needles out and plunges it into my neck.

I can practically feel the Serum coursing through my veins.

Suddenly I can hardly breathe and I feel unsteady on my feet.

Somehow I find myself sitting in one of the chairs in the middle of the circle and I instantly start sweating.

I try to scan the room but it ends up taking longer than I expect it to because of the heavy feeling in my head.

My thoughts are all mushed together and I can't think straight.

But then I spot Tris across the room,and I know that I'll be okay.

I hang my head, averting the dark-skinned guy's, Niles I think, eyes.

I will get through this alright.

"I will ask you several simple questions just so the Serum can take its full effect." Niles says. "What is your name?"

Almost instantly I feel the Serum working against my natural instinct to evade questions like this especially from strangers.

But I'm fighting it also. It's hard, but I'm succeeding so far.

"Four." I answer.

"That's a nickname. What is your real name?"

I don't know if this is even possible, but I feel like my brain is shriveling slightly. I can't think correctly and I feel like I might throw up.

"Tobias." I say through gritted teeth.

"What are your parents names?" Niles asks calmly.

I start to resist again. A piece of me already feels gone from revealing my name. I will be fully broken open in front of these people.

I can't have that happen.

"Why is this relevant?" I spat at him.

"Maybe it wasn't before, Tobias, but it is now that you have evaded the question. Now, what are the names of your parents?" He's still just as calm as ever.

"Evelyn and Marcus Eaton."

Almost as soon as I say this, whispers of recognition erupt from the crowd.

This is not going well.

"So you are a Faction transfer are you not?" He asks once everyone calms down.

"Yes." I glare at him.

"And got transferred from Abnegation to Dauntless?"

"Yes." I sneer.  He doesn't even flinch. In fact he seems to expect this from me. I'm so sick of this. How much more will I have to reveal. "Isn't that obvious?"

"The purpose of this interview is to determine your loyalties." He says, oblivious to me shooting daggers into his eyes. "So I must ask: Why did you transfer?"
