Every person is born with a twin...

  I have grown up a quiet girl in a loud world. I don't talk, though nobody knows why,except me, I know. I remember everything. I am very observant and I'm biding my time. I am unsure for what but there is something important when I am brought to my territory when I come of age at sixteen years.
Everyone is born with a twin. One evil and one good. By the time we turn five years of age the government can tell which is evil and which is good. My twin died at birth and the government doesn't know which one I am.
Right now I have fifteen long years on my back. I say long because of all the tests I have received for the government to choose. They are trying to make their best guess on what territory to send me to; good or evil.
Once there you have to make a life for yourself. Sometimes it is really hard to survive especially for the evil. Evil are sent there to die, but the government doesn't want us to know this. I believe I am the only person to figure this out. That would be why I am staying quiet. I want to stay inconspicuous.

My sixteenth birthday has come and gone. The government still doesn't know whether I am good or evil. I am put in the good territory. They believe that because I have caused no mischief that I can't possibly be evil. Boy were they wrong.

I am smart enough to not die, but I am also smart enough to realize that  the good and evil scales are a little off. I believe that the evil may have their quirks but at least we fight for our rights. I want to overthrow the government and I plan on doing so with my friend, her twin died too. The difference between us? She is good I am evil. She grieves her brothers death I don't. Though that is probably because hers died a few years ago. My twin died at birth I have nothing to miss. It is a golden opportunity.
