Valkyrie felt the cold restraints slip and lock around her wrists, pinning them into place above her head. The soldiers backed away from her and she heard the door click open, echoing in the empty room. She was now fully held down against the flat, steel table. She started struggling, tugging at her robotic arms and legs. "Don't even think about it..." She froze, the voice deep and familiar. To her side, she could feel the coldness of shadows toppling over her and she could smell the faint scent of chemicals and sweat. "Your struggles are a bit in vain, my dear..." The scientist ran his hand over her bound ankles, and she couldn't help but suppress a shiver. "These bindings are made up of titanium, something even you, my creation, can't break through." She felt a frown form in his next words. "I had them made specially prepared for you just in case something like this happens..." She cringed, remembering the lifeless body of her sister lying on the floor of the lab. "You killed her!" She spat, her old tears suddenly finding their way back into her eyes. He stayed silent, but she heard the faint sound of shuffling feet over to a corner of a room. It seemed like he was preparing something, metal clinked against metal. She knew what was coming. She took a deep breath and sighed, relaxing her head against the table. It was all worth it, she thought, I will get to see you again, my sister...
A dull throb pulsated throughout her body. She woke up in a daze, slowly helping herself up by her arms. She was no longer bound, and the air was different. Am I dead yet? She wondered. If so, she praised the scientist for giving her such a quick and painless death. But why can't I remember anything...? She tried to reminisce anything about her death; but only silence answered her. She cursed herself for her inability to see. If only I was able to visualize the situation, she sighed. However, even with everything that happened, she couldn't help but feel that she had left something out. That maybe she wasn't dead. She sobbed at the memory of her sister. Valkyrie remembered how her sister would console her every night... Nonetheless, she was happy to finally be rid of the awful camp and its people. She pushed herself up off the ground and stood up, treading carefully along the solid ground so she wouldn't bump into anything. Time seemed to pass quickly while she was in the void. She met people who seemed to be just as lost as she was, but she never made any emotional attachments to any of them.
It was a normal day in the void. She was wandering, as usual, when suddenly, the floor underneath her feet opened up and she found her self dropping from solid ground. A scream followed her downwards, her heart beating so fast she thought it was going to explode. After a few seconds, she finally relaxed. The feeling of cool air rushing past her body was beginning to be exhilarating. She was enjoying the fall; the way it made her head light and her body float. This was the first taste of freedom that she'd ever had.
She didn't know how long she continued to fall for after that.
It all happened a lot quicker than she though it would. She remembered the temperature dropping, then strange but familiar sounds and smells all rushing at her at once. The first thing she felt wasn't something pleasant. She hit something. Hard. A tree broke her fall, but it was nothing short of hitting concrete. The pain shot up her body a second later, and she was almost too sure that if she still had a human body, a spine and a few ribs would've been broken. She let out a yelp of pain before she found herself toppling from the tree and into a small clearing in the forest. Luckily, she was falling dead center on a small patch of soft dirt. She whimpered as she hit the ground, throwing ashes of dirt everywhere around her. She lay there, for a bit, recovering from the impact. Surprisingly, she heard the sound of distant chatter somewhere nearby.
