Despite being an amnesiac, I always knew I had a strange past as something was unusual, more than just something as I felt this spanned across a vast body of a civilisation and I was involved and I know for a fact that it wasn't a positive influence either.

A beeping noise was heard as I felt my body begin to reawaken and I couldn't help but wonder what was my dream about? I shook my head as I then slipped out of my pod with an audible grunt when I felt the cold hard ground on my feet as I slipped my full hood on, it was more of a helmet than anything but was made out of a soft fabric instead of the usual alloy plates most helmets would use.

Eventually after some recollection of my memories, I realised that I wasn't on some weird planet with a weird purple dragon thing and talking lightbulb, I was on some ship called the Zariman Ten Zero which was sad considering how I have never been on a planet excluding Jupiter because being on some cloud city was amazing and all but didn't hold a candle to exploring a forest, I wish the dream lasted longer.

I sighed as I remembered how I had no family after the incident involving the sentients and was even more sad to remember how the Orokin acted all peaceful and perfect on the outside despite being rotten to the very core inside as they will kill or destroy anything new due to their fears that it may destroy them and as a result technology booms have slowed to a crawl.

I finished recollecting everything as I stepped over to the door and watched it slide open as I made my way through it and watched as children similar to my age were grouping around two other kids in the airlock as the bigger one held the smaller one above the floor by the neck and everyone around him thought it was funny.

I hated it.

I always heard remarks from other smaller, naive and weaker factions that the Orokin were beautiful and almost angelic but I guess that once you dig under their warm exterior, you will find the dark and cold xenophobic empire in all of its sickening glory.

I hated them

I always stuck up for my friends and supported them in their time of need and I often took the shot for most things, either they had no parents or their family was just useless, just like the security who couldn't even move a damn inch to save that kid, I knew for a fact I can't.

I hate being understanding.

I breathed in and out as I found out I was practically shaking with anger but I found myself becoming still again right before hearing a familiar voice.

"Hey Raz!" The voice shouted amongst the crowd, it wasn't hard to be heard to tell the truth as everyone was scared of saying the wrong thing in fear of being interrogated, people who made jokes or referenced cataclysms in the past were often missing the other day.

Eventually a grey figure darted through everyone as it was obvious she was a child of the Zariman as well due to her dull suit colours and unlike most children she didn't have a hood on so her face was easy to see as a result though I couldn't get a clear look on her face before she finally made her way to me.

"Hey Kade" I said, not being much of a talker as I preferred to fly under the radar and not be well known as I didn't want to be involved in stuff.

Kade was by what you would define as a person who had been exposed to a tad bit of the void as her hair was a bright aqua colour while having just a plain long hair style most girls have, unusual hair colour but cute hair style and her eyes were dark red.

"Are you really still wearing that thing? people are still going to see you even with your hood on you know?" she said with a chuckle while pulling my hood up to reveal my face.

The reason why I was never bothered with people with weird genetics is because of my own as I had faint blue eyes and a black sclera with no pupils visible while my skin was ghostly white, it was common for people to be white but I was at the point where it was like paper and my hair was also a silver white and was also rough and unkempt as I saw styling it a fruitless task as I was going to wear my hood and mess it up anyway.

"I don't know to be honest, it just makes me feel more secure" I replied as she practically dragged me to the main hall, past through the gilded hallways with a crowd becoming less dense over time.

"Eh, whatever keeps your ship flying I guess" she said with me resisting the urge to face palm, I knew for a fact that saying was based off of some kind of a floating contraption.

"Do you feel like the Orokin aren't equipped to deal with the Sentients issue, I mean th-" I attempted to say before she blocked my mouth with her hand, I then realised what she was going on about now.

"Dude, you could get wiped for saying that, the Orokin are egotistical bastards though" Kade said with a sigh as she knew that the Sentients had an edge against the Orokin.

The Sentients were a threat the Orokin which made them threat to life itself considering the strength of Orokin and despite them being created by human hands, they still know nothing about them, not even their goals as they are viewed by the boogieman by the corpus and the demon spawn by the Orokin.

Rumour has it that they can adapt to attacks, strategies and nullify advanced technology like positron rifles and world-class ships which sounds sadly true because they only gave their soldiers reinforced alloy armour, a percussion rifle or simple explosive launcher and sent them out to the battlefield to be slaughtered which isn't something the Orokin would do normally considering how they always do a battle cleanly and efficiently, not something a man with the normal weaponry a grineer rebel would equip himself

It's no big secret the Orokin are scared of the Sentients. Operation: Righteous Hellfire proved that the Orokin would end generations upon generations of lives just to kill a platoon of sentient fighters.

"Hey, Earth to Raz, are you there?!" Kade said, shaking me out of my thoughts.

"Woah what, no need to shake me!" I exclaimed after pulling myself out of her grasp, trying to keep a smile off my face but I failed.

"You were thinking about the Sentients were you? I'm sure it'll blow all over soon dude, besides I got a coupon for ice-cream cake for winning the lingual challenge" She said with a smile, she's great at lightening the mood.

"Wait wha? is that even a thing?" I asked, one I never knew such a holy combination existed and two, it's not an instant meal you heat up and get some cheap artificial meat because I'm sick of those and would rather eat fabricated bread again.

"Yeah, Kaisus is being a sourpuss because he didn't win it which makes it all the better heh" she said with a grin as she crossed her arms.

"Hah, you hit that nail right on the head" I said with a chuckle before high fiving her, we always used old slang despite no one else knowing what the heck we are talking about.

"So, are we going to keep talking about how Kais is an idiot or are we going to have real food?" she asked while trying not to giggle which is funny considering how she tries to give off a tomboy impression.

"Real food by a longsh-" was all I could say before the code black alarms sounded with lights flickering, leading to technology failing and combusting in a blaze of cyan fire.

I panicked and tried to find out what was causing this, was it the sentients?

"Raz!" Kade shouted while pointing to one of the portholes.

Oh god it couldn't be, but it was and it was coming and a death I'd pick the sentients over.

"No, no no no no no!" I shouted out at the top of my lungs as I tried to find cover but there was no escape, I was on a ship with everyone screaming in pure terror, only to be ended in minutes.

A wave of incomprehensible energy flew over the ship, the adults and children finally stopped screaming after making contact with the unknown energy as most of their skin peeled off to reveal their skin almost instantly and like old world paper as glowing muscle tissue was revealed and their eyes popped out of their sockets as their faces were locked in an eternal scream with nothing but silent cries coming out and kade became twisted. her veins glowing a bright golden colour as blue flames erupted from her eyes and mouth before she was finally spent, collapsing on the ground like all the others.

I looked down at myself and to my horror, my skin was melting off of me, creating an intense itch as I subconsciously scratched myself even though I tried my best to resist it as pieces of flesh hit the ground.

I couldn't handle it anymore as I collapsed to the ground after I lost too much muscle mass to successfully walk or even stand properly, I felt my vision leave my eyes as I saw nothing.

Nothing is hard to imagine, you can't just close your eyes and immediately know what it is like as you will see darkness closing your eyes and darkness is a thing, white is also a thing, it's hard to imagine.

Suddenly vision returned to me as I found myself awake in a dimly lit primitive cell, I looked around and found out I was in fact in my suit again.

After a while of thinking I came to the conclusion that my dream was a flashback when I got knocked out considering how familiar everything felt, even the void discharge was also a thing and after a while of my adrenaline wearing off from the sheer terror, I just noticed I was sweating and breathing heavily in my suit despite its best attempts to regulate my body, I held my head and tried to purge those memories but couldn't help as I shuddered before calming myself down with an old method.

Count to five, breath in; count to 10, exhale and repeat.

I felt myself calm down before being interrupted by some gravely low pitched voice

"Pfft, what are you doing you little runt, I wonder why they didn't kill you because your head would be great to wear" this weird dog thing said with some overly exaggerated laugh as he apparently thought that was hilarious.

Maybe if I utilised that switch ability I discovered a day ago where I somehow switched positions with some unfortunate ape just before I would get smashed then perhaps I'd be the one laughing.

Focusing on the energy within me, I felt it grow in my body as certain parts of my suit highlighted with the dog thing looking at me with a confused look as I then suddenly locked eyes on his position and suddenly I found myself move in the blink of an eye, past the bars as we switched past each other in the form of crimson red energy as we suddenly found each other in different shoes as he was now in my would-be prison.

I gave him the middle finger and a smug muffled chuckle as he then looked around, obviously confused as he then looked at his own body in shock as he tried to comprehend what was happening.

I could get used to this power however I wonder if I got anymore in store, though I just shook my head as I was already grateful enough for this one, I sighed as the memories that I briefly experienced a while ago were not the best ones and despite having that flashback, I could still not piece together what brought me in this situation and what happened to Kade.

Hopefully the next room will hold some answers.
