Pain.
That's all I could feel. Agonizing pain running through my cold blood, itching at my skin, aching my muscles, gnawing at my bones, scratching at my very soul… It was unbearable. And then I felt my limbs feel as if they were being ripped from my body as they were forcefully elongated and enlarged. I felt a searing pain in my chest as my lung repaired itself, my organs became stronger, more bones and muscles and tendons all did the same. My skull was still aching from the surgery required for neural implants, but now it felt as if it was going to burst.. My skin grew paler, my hair grew longer, my eye colors changed. I clenched my teeth and attempted to bare the pain, a single, crimson tear falling down my left cheek. Then suddenly, it stopped. All my pain, all the agony, gone. I looked around and found myself in a familiar room. Yes, the augmentation room I'd been brought to. The breathing apparatus on my face prevented me from suffocating, were I to pass out. Though now all it served to do was obstruct my vision. A doctor walked up to me, removing the mask from my face. I recognized this doctor as the one who had suggested a first that I be augmented. He was taller than me, at 5' 10". That is, he was taller than me. As I stood from the table I found myself to stand 2" taller than the doctor, my muscles which had already been in good shape were now refined and athletic looking. I would have to say it too, My breasts were not looking bad either. I would have to throw out all of my old bras, but I wasn't too mad. I went from a C-Cup to D in mere moments. My hair fell down to my thighs, which I would have to fix later. My eyes were what seemed strange to me. I could see my reflection in the table's metallic surface. My right eye was Violet, my left one tinted Crimson. I wiped the single blood colored tear from my cheek and turned to the doctor, whom had some questions.
"Are you feeling ok Lilith?" he asked
"I'm feeling fine yeah." I said, a little sore but a needle rifle to the chest hurt a helluva lot more.
"That's good, no muscle aches or joint pains? Head cloudiness? Heart pains?" he asked
"No doc, I'm fine." I said, ready for the eggheads to leave me be.
"Alright, Lilith, you're done for today, we'll be back tomorrow to check on you, so you rest easy till then."
I nodded and waited till he had left the room. I looked at my newly acquired limbs, my skin a snow white color. I caught a glimpse of my hair falling onto my chest, over the now, extremely stretched T-Shirt I was wearing. It still had the raven tint to it. I grabbed the jumpsuit that had been left on the table for me. I stared at the jumpsuit for a few minutes, taking in the details of my new, SPARTAN, outfitting.
"Not a bad pull for my first mission." I mumbled to myself, imagining slipping into that jumpsuit instead of my BDU's for a mission. I wondered about my armor, my fireteam. I was worried.
I stared at the suit a bit longer in thought before walking out of the room and back to my cabins.
