Child Soldier in Another Reality
In one life, Sawada Sara would have a normal childhood but this one...
'She' took 'her' place in the growing fetus of a young woman. And then she was born.
She lived a happy childhood under doting parents, until come five years old...
...she dreamed.
Being in a facility with mean adults.
Constant treatments and injections.
Heavy Conditioning that often got them all worn out.
Lessons to hate people she doesn't even know.
Harsh training and only the strong survives.
Its all scary!
Why a dream like this?!
Suddenly, her dreams changed.
It was a boy who saved her from drowning and comforted her. He saved her again and returned her home but quickly forgot him...and she only remembered him again when she was about to die.
She loved this boy whom she always forgets when she sleeps.
'Little one.' she looked to see a sad man in a suit. 'This nightmare is long over...and you have a chance to live a normal life of happiness, away from this nightmare of yours. Remember...you have loving parents, and you go to school with friends.'
Sara recalled her childhood memories and Pre-school. It was a far cry from these memories but at least she's not made to fight anymore. No more mean adults and doctors! No more treatments!
'Exactly. Be happy this time and maybe, in this world, you'll find a boy just like Shinn someday.'
Sara shook her head,
'No. Only one Shinn! Nobody can replace Shinn!' Sara cried vehemently before sniffling. 'But...I wish I meet someone like him again...'
'You will, little star.' the man smiled. 'For now, tell nobody of the fire when you wake up, OK?'
'Huh?'
When she woke up, she was on fire but...its strangely not scary?
She took deep breaths and calmed down...and its gone.
'...ghost man's right...this fire is not scary...but...tell no one? OK.' she nodded. 'Don't want mama and papa to be scared of me...' and she went back to sleep.
Indeed, she never told anyone that she was a poor child soldier who reincarnated as somebody else's child...that she gained what she never had.
A world where its not scary anymore.
But she remembers all her skills too.
"...Stella is a soldier. An Extended." she thought. "It's all I ever know. But now...I don't know this life but...its not scary...' she thought with a nervous smile. 'I'll be OK...no more fighting, no more dying. But...where's Sting and Auel?"
She hid her fire for all her life and just discovered what a childhood is.
She slowly accepted her new life while using her powers to stay alert and focused, while dreaming to grow up cute as her old face was very cute. She thinks Shinn likes her because she's cute so she dreams to grow up cute.
But as she grows older, she learns more about the world denied to her due to a lifetime of soldier training, forced to fight Coordinators.
The world was beautiful, peaceful...and not scary.
She happily threw away life as Stella Loussier and embraced Sara Sawada as her life now. By the time she was thirteen, she became what she wanted to be, the cute girl she always wanted to be.
But...
She felt a strong need to train her body to be like the old days. And she could train without hurting herself.
Ever since that grandpa visited their house - the time she was forced to suppress herself to the max to feel just like mama when he and daddy feels like she does. It was rough though. She felt so restricted and...not free at all.
She was happy grandpa's gone but years ago, daddy didn't have flames and now he does all of a sudden? Hmm! What is going on here?
She snuck around town to find the best place with the best computers...disabled the CCTVs but what old tech they've got here...it took her a while to figure out what she needed, damnit.
She set up the computers, and began hacking, guided by her instincts to download information. She knows she has little time left, while she used a dummy place as bait so they wouldn't come here.

Italy...
Vongola detected Hacking Attempts in Tokyo.
From a Police Station of all things!
They arranged a flight for Tokyo while fighting with this hacker who's shockingly too good at this they had trouble keeping up.

By three in the morning...
Sara erased all evidence in the stuff she used, used a cleaning solution to wipe her fingerprints away and took what she came for, going home.
She has school hours later, hiding all her printed items under the mattress of her bed, and went to sleep.
(that morning, the owner of the computer shop was shocked with what happened to his store and his own computer)
Hours later after school, she read everything...and groaned.
She hoped nobody dies or she'll be forced to kill again...
(sadly, she'll be forced to)
