The world lost all color. Victoria Allen watched as people surrounded the now colorless casket. Suddenly the air became insufferably hot as sweat pooled in her stiff mourning clothes. The next minute brought a change of temperature, rapidly turning freezing cold. Victoria's teeth chattered as she took her turn looking down into the open casket. Brown hair with streaks of gray, black-framed glasses that lay on top of closed, pale eyelids. The voices inside the service speed up and slowed as Victoria's world began to collapse.
No one noticed as the petite, brown-curled girl disappeared out of the service and walked outside. Gray clouds masked the sun from the sky as Victoria took a deep breath and began to sprint. Faster and faster, Victoria didn't run out of breath as the world spun past her at a magnificent speed. She had to get out of here, she couldn't stand another tear or sympathetic look. When Victoria finally stopped running, she was far away from the dull graveyard from the service. Victoria stood in front of a towering building. Though it was sunny here, people in ripped clothes and hungry mouths surrounded the streets of the abandoned warehouse.
Victoria jumped out of the way, hearing the click of heels against pavement. Her jump to avoid getting bumped into turned into a slam into asphalt as Victoria fell.
"Are you okay?" A voice asked as Victoria was pulled from the street by a blond-haired, business-looking girl.
"Uhhh fine, I think." Victoria answered, her head spinning. The blonde girl looked at the girl's face for a minute before gasping slightly. She shook her head as if trying to clear her thoughts from her mind.
"You're bleeding, let me help you." The girl said, her voice suddenly higher and urgent.
The girl lead Victoria away in a hurry, covering Victoria's eyes as they filed into a concrete door.
"I'm Felicity Smoak, you are?" The girl asked and Victoria tried to pull away, but the girl only strengthened her grip.
"Victoria Allen." Victoria replied, knowing her first and last name were common enough for a stranger to know her full name and never find her again.
Inside was a dark room filled with strange lights and huge computers. A man sat at a desk, watching as Felicity lead in Victoria. His face became contorted with anger as he started to open his mouth. Felicity quickly turned Victoria's face towards the man and he paused, examining Victoria's features.
"Oliver, she says her name is Victoria Allen." Felicity said, as she picked up a phone and started to talk very fast. Victoria saw Oliver's face and recognition filled her mind just as Oliver poked her with a needle.
"Sorry Victoria." He muttered as Victoria blacked out.
Victoria opened her eyes to a blinding light. Oliver, Felicity, and a new man stood over Victoria.
"She can't be like me." The new man said as Victoria examined his brown hair, smiling eyes, and worried expression.
"You're dead!" Victoria screamed as she blacked out again, this time from fear and not from injection like before.
