A feminine hand tucked a strand of hair behind an ear, and a sigh echoed through the small clammy room. Hunched over a desk covered in papers was a young woman, no older than the age of twenty-six. Placing the mug (which was filled with her favorite of teas; green)back onto the newspaper which has been dated from a month ago, a sigh escaped rosy lips once more. Soon, a shadow crept over the papers that she was scribbling on, and the woman turned around to meet the squinted eyes of a man.

"My, my. You sure are making quite a bit of progress. What was your name again, dear?"

"Crescent... Lucrecia Crescent, Professor." He grinned a Cheshire cat kind of grin, and he stayed standing behind Lucrecia for a while, then slowly walked away, before muttering something about Turks and chuckling.

"They better not interfere with our experiment, it's too precious.. she is too precious."

Lucrecia cast her gaze onto a large tube in the corner of the lab. A being looking very much like a woman stared back at her, which caused her spine to shiver. Metal-looking silver skin, and wire-like strings on her head to produce "hair".

Jenova, as Professor Hojo would say, was the beginning of everything.. To her, it seemed more like the end of it all.
