A/N: Hi! I'm glad you decided to take some time to read my story! I came up with this idea by watching LXG. So yeah, but Isa and the pilot, and a later character, Desmond, belong to me. All other characters you recognize do not. Oh yeah, before I forget, this story takes place after the movie (Sorry Dorian fans, he's not going to be in this fic.)

Prelude

Isabella ran through the rain drenched city of Barcelona, Spain. She didn't care that she was soaked to the skin. Goosebumps covered her arms and legs. Her body was shivering, begging for any opportunity for it to warm itself. Although it was late at night, she looked around for any sign of life in the dormant city. The sound of dry leaves cracking made her hide in the shadows. She held her breath, pleading with her rapidly beating heart to quiet down. A malnourished dog walked by her with a bone in its mouth. The young woman sighed in relief. She looked around hoping that there would be no more surprises. When she confirmed that the coast was clear, she ran off into the night. The dark, run down buildings of the poor side of Barcelona passed by in a blur as she ran through the city, looking a way to get out of Spain.

It wasn't her home anymore...

She had lost everything and everyone that was dear to her at the tender age of seventeen. She had lost her father to a mining accident. The cave had collapsed on him and twelve other workers. No one survived. Years later, her mother then came down with a deadly sickness. Days later, her mother was dead. In her grief, Isa got out of her house, and lit a match and threw it to the floor. She ran from the area as her home was engulfed in flames.

Isabella was dead... and out of the ashes Isa was born. She wasn't going to be weak anymore.

She couldn't be...

Isa heard the sound of an engine. She followed its sound, praying that the sound would lead her to something that could get her out of Spain. When she couldn't run any farther, she stopped to take a breath and nearly wept with relief.

The engine she heard belonged to a plane.

She ran towards the plane and silently climbed into the cargo, keeping out of sight of the pilot. She made herself comfortable in a corner, leaning her head against the wall of the plane. Isa closed her eyes, and after what seemed like a second later, her head drooped forward and sleep claimed her. She didn't even hear when the plane engined revved to life and took off towards whatever destination it was headed to.

Whoever killed her parents was going to pay.

Dearly.
