Short Author's Note: Thanks so much for that last review, JTLegend. Sara's character gets a tiny bit dark.
CHAPTER 10: Memories
Sara had kept herself away from Saya and Hagi ever since she'd been brought to the Red Shield's headquarters. She felt like she was being torn apart. One part of her wanted to stay with her queen, the other part of her wanted to go back to Diva. She was glad that Saya had given her the space she needed. She probably thought Diva had done something to her. But then again, she had, and that was the whole point.
She just wished she knew what to do.
"Sara Winter?" a woman's voice said from behind her.
Sara turned toward the voice to find a young woman wearing a lab coat. The coat angered her for a second for some reason. She shook her head to focus. "What is it? Is Saya okay?"
"She's fine and resting in her room" the woman told her kindly. "I actually came here to talk about you" At Sara's look of questioning the woman continued. "My name is Julia. I was hoping you would let me examine you"
Sara's look turned apprehensive. "Examine me?" Sara narrowed her eyes. "You mean scientifically?" She laughed out loud. "At least you asked. No one else ever did"
Julia shook her head quickly. "Not scientifically. Medically. You're the first woman who has been made a Chevalier that we know of. You could be in some kind of danger. At least do it for Saya"
Sara flinched at that last part. "Alright, fine. But make it quick"

Sara followed Julia until the woman stopped at a door. Julia opened it and motioned for her to enter. Sara hesitated. Why the hell was she so afraid to go inside? Her mind flashed back to that encounter she'd had with Amshel in the mansion's courtyard. What if she harmed someone innocent this time?
Something told her she was close to remembering her past. But there was something she didn't WANT to remember. But she was tired of running away. She needed to do this. Saya had faced her past by going to the Zoo. She could face hers right now by going into the room. She took a deep breath.
Then she walked through the door... and instantly froze. It was a lab more than a hospital.
All her memories came crashing back to her with such force she fell to her knees. She remembered her parents selling her to that twisted scientist Dr. Falkner. She remembered the experiments he had put her through that made Joel's seem like check-ups by comparison. That was how she had gotten those powers. Dr. Falkner had been trying to create the perfect super soldier. He had done so with her. Amshel had gotten off easy.
It wasn't just experiments he'd done either. When she had turned thirteen his psychotic mind had gotten other ideas about her. He had started torturing her and raping her. Ever since she had been seven years old, every day until she'd turned sixteen, her life had been a living hell. She had managed to escape a couple of times but he had always found her and brought her back.
And then she had permanently escaped. She had used her powers to torture and kill everyone in that cursed place. But it hadn't been enough, nothing ever would be. That was why she'd made a vow. But before she had been able to carry it out she had ran into an out-of-control Saya. She had been so surprised to see another preternatural being she had been cut down. It had been Saya's blood that had made her forget everything, even her vow.
But now she remembered everything. It was time she carried out her vow. Her vow to get revenge on the humans, ALL of the humans. 'Thanks for the new powers, Saya' she thought with glee. 'Now I'm even more powerful than before'
Sara came out of the past and back into the present. Julia was holding onto her and asking if she was alright. She pushed Julia away from her and stood up. She looked at Julia as she stood up as well. "I need to go make a phone call"
Julia looked at her askance. "But what about the exam?"
Sara glared at her. "Change of plans, DOCTOR"

Sara was getting aggravated. "Listen, James" she said into the phone, her voice carrying a serious, dangerous edge. "Tell that bastard Amshel what I said or I'm going to come back NOW and rip your fucking eyes out"
"You are so lucky Diva likes you" James said irritably.
Sara made her voice as sweet as a child's. "And that implies what?"
"I'll tell him" James submitted.
"Don't call this number, I'll call you" Sara told him. Then she slammed the phone down onto the receiver.
Now it was time to go play nice with those humans- Kai and Riku.
