Most Important Line in the Chapter

This quote is from the Choosing Ceremony where Beatrice must choose a faction.  If you are wondering what the factions are I posted them in my last post.  Beatrice is shaking and she has to choose a faction.  Here is the quote:

"I open my eyes and thrust my arm out.  My blood drips onto the carpet between the two bowls.  Then, with a gasp I can't contain, I shift my hand forward, and my blood sizzles on the coals.  I am selfish.  I am brave," (Roth, 47).

This quote really proves that Veronica Roth packs as much suspence and action as she can into this story.  So now that I know Beatrice chose Dauntless, I am leaning on my seat to learn what will happen to her in her initiation.  I predict that she will survive intitiation and make her way to the top of the faction.  I also predict that somebody will discover that she is Divergent.
