Christiane's eyes burned, stinging from the brightness that surrounded her. One moment, she felt the blindness from the lab's lamps above her as she was submerged. First it was darkness, with black spots dotting her vision until she succumbed to the cold and vastness of the world she was plunged back into. Just like that, a beaming bright light suddenly engulfed her as she was propelled forwards, upwards through a trail of colors, a roaring wind in her ears. Christiane struggled to control her flight, turning and kicking through a force that resembled the Bifrost. She fought, until suddenly she was engulfed in white.
She was in a bright white place that seemed to extend beyond and on. She looked up to only find white. The ground was white, made of clay and scattered with smooth white pebbles. The landscape was barren, save for the gust of cold wind coming from nowhere.
She could feel it, all the emotions that had built up finally breaking the walls she had created. The rage of being captured, her fighting and training giving up on her just from a stab of a needle on her skin. Everything and everyone she lost, her family and loved ones, the future and her present.
"Is this what you had planned this whole time?", she screamed at the top of her lungs to the unknown, kicking up dust from the ground.
"Just take me already! I've lost everyone I love!", her voice cracking as hot tears started spilling down her cheeks. She spun around, screaming to the emptiness until she collapsed to the ground onto her knees.
"You've taken everything and everyone! What do you want?" she screamed louder, sobbing uncontrollably as she fell to her side, tucking herself in as small as possible.
The wind howled, roaring past as she covered her ears, closing her eyes tightly. Her breath sped up as she tried to gasp for air, her mind racing to the vision the Space Stone showed her in this specific place and position.
In a split second, she felt everything. In the next, she felt darkness surrounding her. She looked up to the stars, floating closer and closer to the brilliant white twinkle in the night sky as she closed her eyes, feeling ice and frost seep into her skin to her bones.
