Whithertos and Whyfors

by SeaGuardianAcionna

She had survived the war as a Navy sailor, but she didn't survive a trek across the parking lot without falling into a world she had thought fiction. Her saving grace? She had never had the time or energy to read the books or watch the movies.

Prologue

She was smarter than this. Or, she thought she was. Yet here she stood, in the pouring rain, whilst everything she had on her became thoroughly soak. 'You idiot! How could you leave your keys locked in your car, again?' She yelled at herself internally. Turning away from her car, she ran back into the university building, shivering from the cold rain that pelted at her, almost as if it were ice. She didn't bother to watch for traffic, assuming she would be fine. Coming around the parking lot, however, was a car filled with freshman boys, none paying attention to the drowned female running out in front of them.

Pain. Pain surrounded her as she flew into the pavement from the force of the car. Darkness pulled at her senses as she tried to gather her thoughts. Her vision cleared long enough for her to look down at her broken body, and with her last breaths she thought, 'So… the war didn't get me… but a car? Seriously, Violet?' Then the darkness overcame her, and she was no more.
