A young women stood in one of the hidden bases of Marmora, well was hidden. Her black and gray suit covered her both. Purple Bio-lights were on the base of her chassis. Her mask was off, held in her right right.
On her back held two blades that has a special bio-light purple design that spiraled down both hilts in two different directions. Stepping toward the army of drones. The dull lighting graced her very light pinkish skin.
Small blue jagged markings made a small line under her eyes. Her silver, short hair but with a thin ponytail, hair rested on against her back calmly. A small silver bang hung between her yellow eyes while larger bang hung over her right eye.
A smile formed on her lips, a single tooth rested on her bottom lip. She reaches behind her head with both her hands. Her elbows bending while she grasp the two hilts. Her yellow eyes narrowed toward the drones that stepped back.
Her black and gray suit almost blended in the dimmed lights. The purple bio-lights were the only thing that gave her position away. The sound of charging weapons were aimed at her. Her purple lipstick lips pulled a smirk.
Her figure began to clock it selves. The triggers were pulled as shots rang out. She disappeared completely as she silently charged at the drones. Her feet barely making an audible sound. No echo was heard.
Jumping into the air, only a foot off the ground, she twisted her waist to the left as her right foot swung into the helm of the drone head. Her figure reappearing as the body went flying into the ground unconscious.
The startled drones turned toward her but they were slow as she unsheathed her short swords, twisting her waist once more into a spin kick, slamming her feet into the drones chest, causing two more to go flying into the ground.
A blast short missed her head as she landed on the ground. Ducking her head as she charged at the one who fired at her. Flipping her swords as another blast short flew toward. She crossed her blades, causing the shot to bounce off and fly back to the drone.
The shot hit on impact, causing the body to drop. Another few shots were fired at her. The base began to flare red. Warning signs began to show on the computers. She looked toward the computer as she ran toward it but a blast shot hit the computer panel, watching it lit up in flames.
"No!" She shouted, her yellow eyes widen in fear.
"You have nowhere to run now."The drone stated, his blaster aimed toward her head. His backup was right behind him, copying his movement.
She bite the bottom of her lip. Moving her blades in front of her. Her eyes moved to look for a way out. She had many hidden paths here that she used to help her members escape, though she had lost more than a few members.
She watched the drone walk toward her with caution. She smirked, kicking off the ground in a full run as she swung her fist toward the drone. Catching the drone off guard at the sudden action, she swung her fist upward, slicing the gun in half.
Ducking down once more as blasters fired. She swung her leg under the drone legs, knocking him down before she rolled onto her feet, dodging the blast shots that hit the spot she was crouched at.
Wasting no time to get up, she ran toward the group of drones. Ducking down once one as they tried to swing the back of the guns into her head, she slide under the group before bolting out of the room.
Running down the hall quickly, hearing the sound of crashing behind her. That only told her that they harmed themselves from their action. Rushing around the corner, she felt her base shook violently until an explosion erupted behind her.
Turning her head, she saw the flames heading toward her. Her heart almost stopped. She held in her breath without realizing it until the explosion engulfs her as she was still running into one of the hidden tunnels, but the blast only launched her into that hidden hall.
Her body flew into the ground, smacking her head into the floor hard. Her head began to pound. Her vision was struggling to remain while the hall spun in front of her. She forced herself up onto her feet.
She pressed her fist against the wall, holding onto her blades as she walks. Smoke filled the one of her blades into the sheath, she covered her mouth. Struggling not to cough while the sound of feet were running along the halls.
Making her way to the flight deck. The single pod sitting by the closed hatch began to open. Her eyes widen in shock. The systems must of been hijacked. Running toward the pod as it began to squeal in protest.
Metal grinding against the floor. She grab the edge and pulls herself up into it before the hatched closed on her. Laying her throbbing head down. Unable to realized the fact her head was bleeding from her impacted against the floor.
Her eyes began to shut until the pod was launched out of the opened hatch and into space. The hatch of the pod locked itself before induced cryo stasis turned on. Sending her into a slumber of dreams.
The pod flew through the universe, flying past each sector until it came across the milky way. Entering into the milky way orbit. It flew past each planet, flying toward earth quickly. The pod began to heat up but it didn't bother the slumbering being.
The shattering sound of a barrier clashed, the pod blazed in heated flames. Smoke leaving a trail behind the falling pod. Breaking earth's atmosphere at top speed. It sore past the incoming mountains before it slammed into the ground.
Rocks hitting the side of the sliding pod. It speed slowing down as it left a crater like trail behind. Steam hissed off the heated pod that remained active, keeping that slumbering being inside. No sound came from the pod.
Remaining still throughout the day, night began to roll in. The sound of chatter. Two voices was being heard. The cryo stasis was shutting off. Her body was wakening up. Her eyes fluttering open slowly as the hatch opened with a hiss.
Startled yelps were heard, shuffling away from the pod. She raised her hand up, grabbing the edges off her pod as she slowly tried to pull herself out of the pod but only managed to fall out of it with a painful thud.
A soft gasp was heard before she heard the sound of shuffling once more, rocks being crunched under the feet. Her vision was blur but she could feel a set of arms lift her up slowly onto her feet. Her arm pulled over a shoulder.
"Where.." She began, her head turned slightly to get a glimpse of who was helping her. She could see something shining off of something, two brown eyes looking at her with worried. Glasses.. He's wearing glasses. "Am i?" She finished, sound very tired even if she slept.
"Earth."He said calmly, holding her up like she was nothing. "You're on earth."He repeated, his lips pulled a thin line of a frown.
"Earth?" She questioned but before she could finished, she began to fall asleep. All her weight falling onto the being who was holding her up.
The being watched her with worried before he looked toward the little girl beside him who looked at her with wide, curious eyes.
Waking up slowly, she felt comfortable where she was at. Wincing slightly at the sudden throbbing to her head, she raised her hand up to touch her head but all she felt were bandages wrapped around her head.
What happen? She thought to herself. Concern written on her face. Looking around, she frowned a bit. The room she was in had plain white dry walls. A table with some type of screen on top of it. Beside her was another table but with draws that lead down to the floor.
Turning her attention toward the table next to her bed. A light source stood on it with her clothing and weapons.Are those mine?She questioned herself warily. She didn't understand anything. She could possible remember anything that happen.
Turning her head, she spotted yet another end table on the other side of the bed. The same light source stood there. Her eyes continued to scan the room until it landed onto a door that lead to a bathroom. Another door beside it, was the exit of her room.
She looked down as she saw what she was wearing. A white, frilly gown that had thin straps over her shoulder. What was covering to keep her warm was a heavy pink quilted blanket, with a heavy white blanket then a thin sheet under the two.
She gently rubs the blanket carefully as she smiled softly at the softness of the blanket. Jumping a bit, she heard a growl of her stomach as she licks her dried lips. Pulling the comforters off her, she swung her legs over the bed edge and place her feet down on the ground.
Blinking a few times, she looked down and wiggled her toes against the softness of the floor. What is that? I never felt something so soft under feet. She questioned herself as she stood up slowly.
She wobbled a little, stumbling a few times until she gathered her balance. The sound of the door opening, showed a boy of the age of fifteen. Her head tilted to the side and he stared at her in shock.
"You're up." He muttered before he turned and ran out of the room. Yelling about something or was calling for someone.
What was that about? She questioned herself once more, confusion written on her face as the sound of feet rushed up the stairs. A middle aged man appeared in the doorway, looking at her with shock and interest.
She tilted her head calmly, something told her that she could trust him for the time being. He walked toward her, gently taking her chin in his before looking into her yellow eyes. The worried and concerned expression was on his face.
"Matthew, go get the poor girl something to eat."The man turned around to catch sigh of the matthew and a smaller girl beside. "Katie, go get a glass of water for her, please. " He asked more calmly, nicely with a smile on his lips.
The two nodded their heads and ran off down the stairs that sounded like a rushing crowd. She didn't understand what was going on. She couldn't possibly understand anything that is happening right now.
"How are you feeling?" He spoke up, catching her attention. His brown eyes staring into hers calmly. Square like glasses rested on his nose.
She tilted her head in confusion before pointing at her head. With a nod of his own, he turned to walk to the bathroom. "That's normal. You're just experiencing a minor headache."He stated calmly, gathering something out of the bathroom. "Though you do have a nasty bump on your head."
That's probably why i don't remember. She nodded her head, understanding as she steps back, sitting down on the bed. It was strange. He and the two children were light skin colors. Skin colors she never seen before.
They were definitely lighter then her pink skin. They even had odd color hair, compared to her silver hair and their eyes were different compared to her yellow eyes. Even their ears were round while her's were pointed.
Sad thing was, they had no marking on their faces. So Who are they to her. He stepped closer, setting down a metal like tray. She looked at it to see a white bandage, and some other stuff. She pointed at it in confusion.
"Ah bandages, we need to change the bandages every six hours and clean the wound." He stated calmly, a smile formed on his lips.
With a nod, she sat still. He began to unravel the bandages from her head. Watching the stripes fall onto her lap and move around her. She could feel the throbbing has eased up a bit on her head as she relaxes.
"So do you have a name?" He questioned calmly, before keeping that smile on his face. "My name samuel holts but you can call me sam." He stated calmly, beginning the introduction.
My name? She questioned herself, confusion written on her face as she tried to remember what her name was. A frown fell on her lips until her eyes were casted down to her hands in sadness. She couldn't remember her own name.
Sam probably saw her actions and frowned instantly. "You might have caused some damage to your brain, amnesia isn't uncommon and memories do tend to come back. Lots of things can trigger memories." He explained calmly, grabbing a white puff cloud and a brown bottle.
She watched in amazement when she saw him open the brown bottle and stuffed that white cloud in into it and tipped it over like nothing. Nothing spilled out of it. She tilted her head when he sat it up, pulling the white cloud out and set the bottle down.
"Guess we'll have to give you one as a temporary name."Sam said calmly, chuckling lightly at her curiously.
But soon her curious expression turned into a scolding look when the puff cloud touched the wound. It stung her. She didn't know what was on that cloud that came from that bottle but it stung her wound. She never felt anything like it and flinched away.
"Easy, i need to clean the wound." She sent a scolding look at him. "Relax, it antibiotics, it suppose to help keep the wound clean." Her scolding look harden even more until it dawned on it. She was hurting because of it. "I should've warned you it would sting, Forgive me." He said apologetically.
She huffed in annoyance, struggling not to flinch every time he gently but slowly dabs the puff cloud against her open wound. Once she saw the puff cloud had touched the tray be grabbed another thing that was white. She watched him open the white thing like it was some kind of container but shiny and plastic.
Setting the cap thing down, he grabbed a packet and opened it before pulling out a cloth type thing and squeezed what was in the containment onto the cloth. She points at it in curious.
"Bacteria medicine, this will keep dirt and other bacteria out from the wound. This one won't harm you." He stated calmly before moving the cloth thing onto her wound. Truth be told, it was more of a cool to the touch.
She pointed once more to the cloth thing and tilted her head. "Oh, that a gauze. It'll keep the wound covered and protected."He explained calmly, as realization dawned on him. "You don't have medical supplies where you came from?" He asked in confusion.
She stared at him, blinking a few times in thought but since no memory came to her. She shrugged her shoulders. He nodded his head calmly before he grabbed the white bandages and pressed it lightly against the gauze and starts to wrap it slowly but neatly around her head.
"You're not really talkative, are you?" He asked, almost dumbly. Looking down her to stare at him with a dumbfounded look before he chuckled slightly. "Ah right, due to your condition and where you're at, i would understand your predicament and not wanting to talk." He stated calmly.
With a nod of her head, she wasn't really trusting him at the moment. Even if they did get her out of the pod, she wasn't going to take any chances. She wasn't scared of them, she just didn't want to get hurt.
This samuel looked at her in concern. It was like he was reading her. Reading her eyes as if she was an open book. A peaceful smile formed on his lips before she watch him grab two metal pieces and clipped the bandages together before he picked the tray and head back into the bathroom.
That was when the little girl walked in. Her big brown eyes stared up at her with interest and curiosity. A clear cylinder with a clear liquid in it was handed over to her. She stiffened up before reaching out and taking the smooth cylinder in her hands.
Bringing it up to her lips, she took a quick sip of it before her eyes widen at the freshness of the liquid. She had never tasted something so pure, so clean, so refreshing. Taking another quick sip from it until it turned into gulps.
She was really thirst and she never realized it. Now setting the empty cylinder, she pointed at it in curious of what that strange liquid was. Even curious written on her face was shown.
The little girl eyes widen in shock at the motion before a wide smile was pulled on her lips. "That's a cup and water." The child piped up, taking the glass cup into her hands and ran out of the room quickly with a giggle.
Another walked in, the older boy but he was younger than samuel. Another tray was set down beside her. She tilted her head to see a plate under an half circled bowl. Another circle bowl filled with something yellow in it.
Her eyes turned back to the bigger bowl and pointed at it. "Hehe, Go ahead and eat. "He suggested, nudging his hands toward it before stepping back.
She picked the bowl up and used the tips of her nails to pull out a chunk of meat, something she is actually familiar with. Popping the meat into her mouth, she chewed on it a few.
But when the taste touched her tongue, her eyes widen at how juicy the meat tasted. She literally hummed at the taste before she went to grab another. A hand grabbed hers, causing her to scowl angrily.
She looked up at the one who stopped her, until she saw something metal, shaped round with a handle. "Use this."The boy stated, a smile on his lips.
She blinked until his hand was removed from hers before she took the silver thing and looks over it. Blinking a few times, she realized what it was and began to use the spoon to eat up the bits of meat that floated around in the brown liquid.
She could tell the boy was watching her with fascination. Like he had never seen her kind before. She tilted her head before pointed at him calmly in curious. "Who?" She almost flinched at her soft tone, she had forgotten what she sounded like.
He blinked in confusion before it dawned on him. He had the same realization look that Samuel had. "Oh!" He said in shock before pointing at himself." I'm Matthew Holt, you already met my dad."Matthew said happily at his introduction.
"Her?" Again she almost flinched at her soft tone. Hardly use to it. Why did she feel safer talking to him. Safe, Trust Safe. The back of her mind was talking to her but she tried to push it back.
"Oh." Matthew looked at the doorway to the hall, to see the girl peaking in with interest. "That's katie, my sister."He said calmly, holding a soft smile on his lips.
The girl waved her hand, almost shyly at her. She tilted her head and looked down her hand before holding her hand up and waves it at the same motion. "Where?" She asked, looked around a few times.
Matthew looked at her in confusion before his eyes widen slightly. "Oh, right!" He said almost loudly before he flops down on the floor, his legs folded awkwardly before he held a finger up. "Me and katie found you in a pod. You were awake slightly but you were also injured. Before we could ask you something, you kinda passed out on us and i brought you here."Matthew explained the short part of what happen.
That didn't explain where she was at. She frowned slightly and looked down at the bowl. Maybe the pod could help jog her memories a bit.
"Matthew brought you here to our house." Samuel spoke up, catching her attention. Her eyes widen in shock. "My wife and i gotten to work on your wounds however my wife was the one who changed your outfit to the night gown you are wearing now." Samuel stated calmly.
So she was in their house. They took care of her while she was sleeping. "How long?"She questioned, curiosity written on her face this time as she narrowed her eyes.
"You slept for about a week now."Katie pointed out, her voice startled her a little before she looked at the young girl. "We were a bit worried that you wouldn't wake up."Katie said quietly with worried.
A week?! Her eyes widen in shock, her head lower in disbelief before her eyes looked at the meal in front of her. She been asleep for a week and she didn't know. But why was she shock, She had nowhere else to go.
She almost jumped when she felt a gently hand touch hers. Looking up she saw matt looking closely at her in worried. "Hey, you looked a little pale, you okay?" He asked, a lace of worried in his tone.
Was i okay? She thought about the question. She didn't know if she was okay. She didn't know. "I.. I think i am."She said calmly, trying to make a gently but comforting smile on her lips.
They looked at her then each other in worried before they nodded their heads. "Ophelia.."Samuel spoken up, earning the looks from both her, Matthew and Katie in confusion.
It dawned on Matthew. "Ophelia, as in like the name of jupiter's tiny moon?" Matthew asked, in confusion before looking at her.
"Jupiter?" She asked, tilting her head in confusion. She blinked her eyes a few times before humming softly toward the name.
"Yes."Samuel said, walking toward them. "It can be her temporary name until she remembers her real name."He pointed out, looking at them with interest.
"It'll do."She, now ophelia, said calmly, nodding her head in agreement.
Three smiles had formed on three people's faces in front of her. What she didn't expect was her life had actually been changed around
