The sun beat down upon Anna's face, creating golden highlights in her red hair. Her eyes quickly opened, and she sat up, finding nothing familiar around her, except the smell of rain, which was a common thing in her homeland of England. Everything around her was green, a jungle one way, a mountain the other. She got up, dusting off her knees and struggled to remember how it was she got there. She began walking, when a voice startled her.

"Hey! Don't move." Anna was startled by a mans' voice behind her. "Turn around, and put your hands in the air." Anna did so, timidly raising her hands to the pure blue sky. She noted the southern drawl in the mans' voice, trying to remember if she was told anything about him.

"Alright now, Ginger." The man strolled towards her, his blond hair moving into his face as he got nearer, "You wanna tell me what you're doing out here?" Anna looked at his face, stern and unshaven.

"I…I'm not exactly sure. I'm looking r-"Anna stuttered out, but was cut off.

"Are you a hostile?" the man edged closer to her, gun first.

"A what?-No, no, I-I'm look-"Anna began to panic. "My name is Anna F-"

"LaFleur!" Another man stepped in, he was shorter than the southern blond guy, but he didn't appear any happier; his Asian face seemed permanently frozen in an unhappy appearance.

"What is it, Miles?" the man, dubbed LaFleur by the Asian guy, asked who Anna presumed was Miles, and didn't turn his gaze from Anna.

"She's not a hostile, James. She's…a scientist…" Miles looked at Anna, and she got the sense he knew something, but to Anna's knowledge, his power didn't cover that form of mind reading. She thought about LaFleur. She didn't know of any James LaFleur, but she had heard of a James Ford…

"Why wasn't she with the rest of the eggheads when they came on the sub last week?" LaFleur lowered his gun, and finally turned to face Miles. Anna lowered her hands and breathed a sigh of relief.

"I don't know, James. She's a late comer. A…physicist, right?" Miles' intense eyes fell upon Anna, who nodded, but continued to scan the area, furrowing her brow at something by the tree line, which went unnoticed by the two men.

"Oh, great. She's not a basket case like our other one, is she?" LaFleur asked, "How'd she get to be a genius at that age anyways?" Miles shrugged and they both looked at Anna, who, oblivious to the pair of eyes watching her, was looking inquisitively at something among the trees.

"Hey!" LaFleur called, getting Anna's attention. She walked back over to them.

"Did you guys notice how-" She started, but was cut of by LaFleur.

"Are you some kind of prodigy kid?"

"No, not really. I don't think that's a…proper term. I mean, it's possible, but my Grandmother taught me. A lot of stuff, about…well, physics, and things…" Anna trailed off, and spaced out in the direction of the trees. "Interesting…" She muttered.

"I'll take that as a yes, then?" LaFleur whispered to Miles. Anna noticed the two of them heading towards a parked van Anna guessed was from the 1970s. She followed them over to the light blue vehicle, just now noticing the matching tan jumpsuits both of them wore, each with a octagonal emblem that Anna sworn she had seen somewhere before. She remained quiet, as did Miles and LaFleur, on her trip to where they had came from. When they came out of the deep green of the jungle, they arrived in a neighborhood of houses, all matching in a suburbia way, painted a dull yellow. There were a few other buildings Anna noticed, as well as a park, where she noticed a few toddlers playing. LaFleur drove up to a mechanic garage type building, parking the van in a row with other identical ones, and hopping out. Anna stepped out, taking in her new surroundings in a sort of awe.

"Welcome," LaFleur began, closing the van door behind him, "to the DHARMA initiative."

(whoosh sound effect!)
