The Adventures of Elizabeth Shaw and David
Part 1: Awake
A pale body floats alone in a dark and infinite space. She is naked. Her limbs are long and slender making her almost alien, physically. A thin prominent scar rests on her lower abdomen. Her fiery hair moves like the waves in a deep sea, strong, purposeful and wild. She slowly descends onto a cold metal floor.
A light emerges in the distance and grows exponentially. A man walks evenly towards the sleeping and naked woman. He is also naked with a clear perfect physique. His hair is short and blonde. He leans over the woman and brushes her hair. "Elizabeth Shaw," He whispers into her ear, "We have arrived."
Shaw opens her eyes, "David. How long have I been asleep?" she asks.
"20 years, 3 months and 14 days, Miss Shaw." He replied in a matter of fact way.
"How are you?" she asks as she looks into his eyes for a response. David returns a look of curiosity.
"How am I? I am..." he pauses to compute, "Fine. I am fine, Miss Shaw. Now, let me." David, naked, lifts Elizabeth from the floor. She does not resist and takes support by hugging his neck.
"He is cold." She thought to herself but Elizabeth places her head onto his shoulder with comfort. David carries Elizabeth towards the entrance of light. It closes gradually behind them.
