“Will and Tomas look ready to fight while I’m grateful Tomas wants to keep me safe, this whole macho thing is out of place considering our circumstances.” And “Try to act like the adults you’re supposed to be while I’m busy keeping us alive.” pages 229 & 230. The traits I’m using consist of,straightforward, short tempered, and responsible. These are qualities Cia shows because it shows she wants the job done, and she’ll do it if all Tomas and Will just bicker.  It also shows that she is a bit short tempered because even though their argument was out of "kindness" you could say, Cia didn’t care who got the water and food because she wants to survive.  Lastly, responsibility applies to the situation because she wants to do what she has to to survive and if no one will step up to do it, she will.

“And for a moment I am certain Will is right. I cannot kill him.  I am going to die on the testing grounds.” page 280.  This shows Cia is doubtful and hesitant because she’s unsure if she can kill Will.  She remembers Will was her friend, and she 2nd guesses things.  Before she pulls the trigger, she thinks it through one last time, to make sure she’s doing what’s right, even though she doesn’t want anyone to die.  This also shows she wanted to believe that she didn’t have to shoot Will, and that she didn’t think she could do it.

“I look around the room and spot Brik sitting at the back table.  This time his eyes make contact.  When he nods, I recognise his gratitude.” pg  133.  The two traits I used to describe Cia at this point in the story are kind hearted and mature.I know Cia is kindhearted because if she hadn’t told Brik to trust her, he probably wouldn’t past the test.  She also explain to him earlier that she doesn’t want anyone else to die, and that he should trust her.   This also proves she is mature, because rather than taking out more of the competition and get closer to the university, she helps Brick by not letting him get eliminated.  This also means that she’s mature because she knew Brik was set up for failure, and she helped him anyway.

“I unstop the vial, then drink the contents.  My family’s safety comes first” pg 291.I chose loyal and daring to describe Cia because she loves her family and can’t risk them being hurt or killed.  She drinks the vial even though it could have severe consequences, or it could be another test.  She doesn’t want her colony and her family to get in trouble for her and her family's secrets.  This also proves she’s loyal because if she slipped up at all during the interview, it could mean death for her and her family.  This proves she’s daring because she doesn’t know the contents of the drink, or if this is just another test from officials.

“With one hand, I balance Tomas's unconscious body as I use my other to steer.” “But I won’t give into the pain or fatigue.  My feet keep moving.  The people in the distance become into focus.” Page 286. This shows Cia is strong willed because even though she is in pain, and she is struggling to keep Tomas up, she still follows through, and she pushes through to the end.  She’s strong willed because rather than leaving Tomas behind, she helped him get through the end.  Cia knows she could give up and break down then start again later, but she was determined to finish the Testing. Lastly, she wants to show the officials that she can finish the Testing, and that she is strong enough to do it.
