The two boys in the hall just stared at their paper without making a sound, it was so quiet on could here a pin drop.
The tension in the room was so thick you could cut it with a knife.
Dexter at the moment had breezed through all the questions and stopped at the last four, no matter how he looked at it the question seemed wrong, he had to do something about it, he had been stuck in that question for hours.
He looked over to Davis and saw him getting up, "am I not as smart as him." Dexter thought.
He focused on him and the interface came up.

'He is way worse than me how is he already done.' Dexter thought.
He then decided that he did not know the answer to the question and gave up.
He also stood up and submitted his paper.
The principal was watching them and looked to her assistant,
"Who do you think would come out on top?"
Her assistant just shook her head and said, "I don't know."
The invigilator was done marking the scripts and he asked both of them to come in.
Lots of students stood outside the hall waiting for the final verdict.
"Who do you think would come out on top?"
"Has to be Davis definitely."
"Shut up the invigilator is about to announce the results."
The Invigilator cleared his throat as he went on to say, " Dexter came out with a score of Ninety Six, while Davis came out with a score of Ninety Nine."
After the invigilator said that everyone froze, not because of the fact that Davis won but because of his score.
In Princeton High, it was a normal thing for someone not to get higher than the score Ninety Five but Davis didn't just pass that he nearly got full marks.
"Wow, Davis is awesome."
"Dexter could have won if he went against any other person but unfortunately he went against Davis."
Dexter found there to be something odd about the whole thing but decided not to speak on it.
"Cynthia, get me their separate answer sheets please." The principal told her assistant, she to felt that there was something odd about it too.
Dexter looked at Davis, who had a smug smile on his face.
"I guess you won, and I humbly apologize.* Dexter said.
"OMG, he is actually apologizing."
"A man that sticks to his words, I like that."
Dexter didn't care what others were saying he had already done his part and as long as he had passed that was all that matters.
He left the hall and when he was about to reach the parking lot a middle aged woman stopped him.
She looked elegant and composed in her suit and knee length pencil skirt.
"Excuse me, are you Dexter Dray?" The woman asked.
"Yeah, how may I help you?"
"I am the principal of Princeton High, Mrs Angela, may I have a word with you in my office."
"Yeah" Dexter said and followed her.
Her office was small and gave of a cozy feeling, which seemed to calm down the mind, it was quite nice.
"So what did you bring me here for?" Dexter asked the woman in front of him.
She didn't speak and just pushed a sheet of paper Infront of him.
Dexter looked at it and found out it was his answer sheet for the exam he just wrote.
"Why are you giving me this?" Dexter asked.
Angela rested her head on her hands and looked at Dexter before asking,
"Why didn't you answer the last four questions?"
"They were wrong." Dexter answered with no hesitation.
Angela chuckled and said, "Well you are right, they are wrong."
Dexter wasn't surprised by this revelation, he was one of the smartest man alive so he couldn't have been be wrong.
"Why are you telling me this?" Dexter knew there was more to the story than what she was letting on and that was what he wanted to find out.
"Well, not many people figure out that the questions aren't right, even if they figure it out they are not brave enough to act on it but you were, it means you are confident in your smarts, so I have a preposition for you." She said and brought out a card from her drawer and placed it in front of him.
Dexter looked at the card and it read, "Angela Research and Development"
"What is this?"
"I have and agency that deals with Research and Development and I would like for you to join."
Dexter was flattered but he didn't want to join a research and development agency, so he was about to decline when the interface came up.
{
Major Task: Join Angela Research and Development Agency.
}
Now Dexter knew he couldn't decline so he looked at Angela and said,
"Yes, I would join your agency."
