Lightning in the Sky
This is Cocoon, a floating utopian city created by the Crystals. The Crystals reign over this world and have decided to create Cocoon to separate themselves from Pulse. Many residents of Cocoon fear everything about Pulse, or "the world below". So much so, the "holy" government of Cocoon have been quarantining and exiling anyone who have been influenced by Pulse. Though there are some who find this treatment unfair, there hasn't been much anyone could do about it. Then one day, something falling from the sky changed both their worlds forever.
A train full of 80 armed soldiers heads to town. They are wearing white and yellow battle suits with automatics in their hands (picture the storm troopers of Star Wars). One of the soldiers looks up through the thick glass ceiling of the train and sees an object falling toward them. He asks one of his fellow soldiers, "What the hell is that?" The other soldier replies, "I don't know; doesn't seem like anything threatening."
The object is actually a strawberry-blond haired woman looking to prevent the train from arriving into town. Falling through the sky head first, she whips out her gun and points it to the train. She fires five shots into the top of the train as the soldiers scatter. Then she forms a ball of energy in her left hand called a Gravity Bomb and throws it into the cracked glass ceiling. The woman crashes through the glass just as the gravity bomb hits. The bomb emits a blue aura, causing 60 of the soldiers to be pinned to the floor. The woman, after falling thousands of feet in the air, somehow lands gracefully on her feet.
The remaining 20 soldiers attempt to take her down. She whips out her Gunblade, chops six of the soldiers' guns in pieces and leg sweeps the soldiers to the floor. She then switches to gun mode and shoots five more in their knees. By pressing her index finger and thumb together, she uses her Gravity Bomb power to hover in the air. With the soldiers standing still in awe, she quickly strikes and takes down eight of the soldiers with gravity-defying moves. Suddenly, she turns to see one soldier left standing.
The remaining soldier is terrified. She jumps over his head as he looks behind him…to find no one there. He turns back around and is startled to find her floating in front of him upside down with two guns in his face. With a stern face, she lets off six shots into his helmet and face mask. An army of 80 is disabled in a minute and a half by one woman.
She stands over one of the soldiers as she addresses the whole army. "Tell your people if you continue your frivolous actions, you will be seeing much more of me. This is your only warning." She walks to the edge of the moving train, looks back at the carnage she created and gives a little smirk. She then jumps off the moving train.
In a dark kingdom not too far away, a young dark-haired man sitting on his throne wakes up startled. He says to himself, "Was that her?"
