Chapter One- [Cinder's POV]
SYSTEM UNSTABLE… MEMORY DRIVE OVERLOAD… ERASING ALL UNNECESSARY MEMORIES… SYSTEM NOW STABLE. REBOOTING IN 3...2...1…
My eyes sprang open as I jerked upwards only to be met with a pain in my chest. I hissed as my eyes adjusted to the harsh white ceiling and blinding lights.
I noticed a man with messy brown hair looking tired sitting in a chair on the right side of my bed. Who is he? I thought. I felt a jerk as a woman who by the looks of it was working on my robotic hand. I somehow felt exposed as she tinkered on my hand. Neither of them had noticed me waking up. I wanted to see the man's eyes so that I could identify him, so I just stared at him for a while.
As if on cue the man looked up from the ground into my confused eyes. Words started scrolling down my vision as I stared in the man's eyes.
EMPEROR KAITO OF THE EASTERN COMMONWEALTH
ID #0082719057
BORN 7 APR 108 T.E.
FF 107,448 MEDIA HITS, REVERSE CHRON
POSTED 13 NOV T.E.: IN A STATEMENT RELEASED THIS MORNING, EMPEROR KAITO INFORMED THE PRESS THAT HE HAS DELAYED HIS RETURN TO EARTH FOR AN INDETERMINATE AMOUNT OF TIME, STATING THAT HIS PRESENCE IS NECESSARY AT THIS TIME TO OVERSEE THE RECONSTRUCTION OF THE LUNAR CAPITOL-
Wait a minute… What was Prince -no wait- Emperor Kai doing here. Most importantly what was I doing here? So I did whatever a cyborg mechanic would do.
"Why am I here?" I whispered to no one in particular. My voice is coming out hoarse and scratchy. While Prince Kai was looking joyful, why exactly?, I ask myself, and the woman working on my hand looked just as confused as me.
"Here drink this." Prince Kai said as he shoved a weird smelling cup of water into my hands. I gratefully drank it as the woman sat in her stool once again working on my hand. My finger twitched uncontrollably for like four seconds until I felt a zap in my wrist and it stopped.
"Cinder how are you feeling?" The woman asked me, not even looking up from her task of poking at my hand. I tried to shrug but couldn't because of a pain in my chest.
"Fine, but what happened to me?" I asked the woman. The woman looked up from her work and looked at Emperor Kai, who then started talking about people that I didn't know squat about.
"People were still coming in from the outer sectors for hours after the fight was over." Concluded Emperor Kai, I probably had a blank look because what I said next shocked him,
"Why am I here?" I growled at him. He looked at me in surprise, but I continued talking. "Who are all those people that you were just talking about? Where am I? And most importantly, I have never met in you in my life, so how come you act as if you know me?"
"Cinder what happened to you?" Emperor Kai asks quietly.
