“That's it!” says Rosa with a smile as you finish the final question.
“What, really?” you ask, startled. “I thought there would be more questions...”
“Our dynamic placement tests are very efficient,” says Rosa. “Just give me a moment to calculate your score.”
With another smile, Rosa takes your exam and sashays over to her desk, where she begins entering something into her computer. After a few minutes, she comes back, still smiling.
“Congratulations!” she says. “Using our placement algorithm, we've found the perfect place for you! When you wake up, I'm sure you'll agree!”
“What do you mean when I wake—“
Suddenly, you start as a sharp jab pierces the skin of your neck.
“...up?” you finish, voice slurring as you crumple to the floor.
-------------------
When you awake, you find yourself suspended inside a tall glass tube, like something out of a 1950's alien abduction movie. Outside the tube is Rosa, smiling at you through the glass.
“Excellent,” she says happily, “You're awake. Now we can begin the final acclimation process! This is the best part; where you get to choose your new body!”
“My new what!?” You scream. “What the hell are you talking about!? You drugged me!”
“I'm sorry,” she says with a smile. “I'm afraid I can't hear you through the glass. I know you must be excited; just be patient a little longer, this is the last step.”
You continue screaming, to no avail. Rosa simply turns away with a wave and begins fiddling with a computer console.
“Now, down to business. Congratulations; your placement test indicates you'll be of greatest value to the university community as a member of the student activist community! They're a wonderful bunch; I'm sure you'll have no trouble at all making friends!”
Rose brings up a monitor mounted on a swivel, pulling it in front of your tube.
“Now,” she says with a smile, “It looks like we still have two activist profiles still unfilled; either would be a good match for your responses. I'll let you decide which one you'd prefer.”
She brings up two profiles on the monitor, then looks at you, smiling.
