"Dawn of Life"
Chapter 1 - The Beginning

In the middle of a small, dark room stood two dark silhouette figures. Both took an appearance of strangely looking men. One was tall with short dark black hair; his face looked slightly long and thin. The other was a rather short and slightly overweight man with dull thin-like gray hair. They both wore long white lab coats, black top, dark brown pants and a pair of black shoes.

Standing side by side one another, they stood in front of a large rectangular tinted window. "How's she holding out?" The tall man spoke. He stood upright with his back completely straight and his arms crossed behind them. The short overweight man didn't respond to the other man. He instead stood quietly next to him gazing through the tinted window. On the opposite of the tinted window led to what appears to be another room.

This room was large and radiant, a lot larger than the room the two men are currently in. The walls were made up of hard, solid steel. Luminescent lights were hanging off the ceiling, its lights reflecting off the sides revealing the wall's pale shades of white.

Right in the center of the large, white room was a small dark shape. The small shape as a matter of fact was a person. All alone and hunched slightly over like a frail individual, the person stood, not making a single movement. It had the appearance and shape of what looks like a young and slim teenage girl.

The girl had long brunette hair that glistened bright golden streaks from the bright florescent lights. She sports on a dark blue top that slanted over to the right, with the sleeve hanging off her shoulder. Underneath it had a purple tank-top. The young girl also had on a short gray mini-skirt, a pair of dark black shoes and long thigh-length black stockings.

She stood there gazing down at the white metallic floor beneath her feet. Her long dark hair fell down and covered the front of her exhausted, sweaty face. The girl didn't bother to move her hair from out of her face. She did nothing but stand there, breathing heavily.

"She has such incredible strength…" said the short chubby man. Looking down at the wooden clipboard he held in his hand, the short man quickly skimmed through the papers. Each of them had multiple charts, graphs and pictures of the young girl. "…fast reflexes, excellent fighting skills…" he continued "…It seems as if she had learned it from somewhere."

The tall man continued to gaze down at the young teenage through the large window. Completely ignoring every word from the other man's lecture, it would seems as though that he doesn't appear to be too interested in hearing what he might have already known. All he did was stare hard at the young girl.

From his side of the tinted window, he could see her clenched fists shaking slightly by her sides. The girl seemed angered by something. Just then, a small sudden beep was heard. It came from one of the side walls in the large white room. She looked up and stared at the white wall facing in front of her. The wall then hissed and a small portion of it began to shift upwards. Behind it revealed a long dark tunnel. Deep inside the hollowness tunnel, a distant cry was heard. It echoed loudly though the tunnel and into the bright white room. The teenager stood up straight, clenching her fists tightly. Small vibrations were felt through the floor as the sound of the cry kept on coming louder and closer than before.

A huge gray looking creature slowly crept out from the cold dark emptiness of the tunnel. The creature before her was a two-headed looking saber-tooth tiger. It snarled and growled wildly at the girl with its big sharp, bloody fangs. The young teenager sneered back at the ferocious beast. She dropped her hands down to her sides and unclenched her fists. From there her hands revealed to have icy blue fingertips. In seconds her arms then developed the same icy blue substance that reached midway past her elbows. It then began to grow slightly to the point that it reached past her knees.

The two men stared silently at both the girl and the huge terrified-looking creature. The short man appeared to be frightened by this. He held the clipboard closely to him. The tall man, on the other hand, didn't show the slightest concern for the young teen. It didn't take long for both her and the monster to charge hastily towards one another.

Back up at the small dark room, the two men continued to watch as the young girl brutally fights against the mutated beast. "Have you gotten any information from that girl yet?" the tall man spoke. The short, overweight man looked down at his clipboard. He stood there silently for a moment. The tall man stood still, continuing to observe the fight. He didn't even bother to look at the man next to him, not even for one second.

"It would seem as though she doesn't remember a thing…" the overweight man said, sounding very sad and concerned for the girl "…She still won't cooperate with us and it appears to me that she has no clue who her family are or where she was from."

The continued to glance back at the young girl, who has taken down the huge brutal monster, now lying on floor, panting and whimpering feebly. She stood before the motionless creature, then in an instant collapsed onto the floor next to it. The girl leaned her back up against its soft gray fur. She looked down at her hands and watched it slowly fade away from an icy blue to a lightly tanned skin color. Exhausted and out of breath, the young girl closes her eyes and rests against the side of one of the monster's head.

The short, overweight man turned his head and looked up at the tall guy. "Do you think she's ready?" he asked concerned. Without taking his eyes off the girl, the tall man solemnly and firmly nodded his head.

"I-isn't there another way...perhaps an easier solution to the—"

"This girl is giving us no other choice…we have to take drastic measures!" the tall man firmly spoke.

In the middle of the white room, the young teenage continues to rest upon the motionless body of the two-headed monster. She calmly inhales and deeply exhales, ridding her body of all the pent up aggression she had just recently.

"NUMBER FOUR TWENTY FIVE!"

The young girl flinched slightly by the sudden outburst. Knowing who it was and that she was being called for, the teen continued to rest peacefully against the two-headed saber-tooth mutant tiger, pretending as if she didn't hear anything.

"NUMBER FOUR TWENTY FIVE!"

The brunette remained calm and quiet, still not giving any single response.

"HUNTER STONE! RESPOND!"

From there, the girl finally responded by opening her eyes and gazing up at the dark tinted window. She could see nothing but two dark silhouette figures. "So now you decided to call me by my actual name?" the young girl, Hunter yelled firmly "You're still not gonna get any answers from me if that's what you're asking!"

"WE NO LONGER REQUIRE ANYTHING FROM YOU..."

She stared at the shadowed figure confusingly. "Oh really?" Hunter said dryly.

"PACK UP YOUR BELONGINGS! A HELLICARRIER IS READY FOR TRANSPORT!"

"Transport…" Hunter asked in shock "…where am I going?!"

"PROVIDENCE WILL BE IN NEEDING OF YOUR ASSISTANCE"

"Providence?" Hunter thought.
