I'm floating.

It's dark.

I'm afraid.

Where am I?

What happened?

I'm not dead...

Where's Zoe?

What happened?

I'm afraid.

It's dark.

Help me.

It's dark.

HELP MEE!!!!

I open my eyes.

Above me I can see a couple of lights. My whole body burns. Everything hurts.

I look towards my arms. I'm connected to a blood bag....

And other machines I don't know.

I don't care.

Where's Zoe?

Nobody is in the room with me. It looks like a hospital.

I don't like it.

Where's Zoe?

I pull out the tubes connected to my body. A small amount of blood leaves my body and seeps down my arms.

I don't care.

Where's Zoe?

I get off the bed I had slept in. My whole body is bandaged.

My back burns so badly. Shit.

I puke on the floor. Taking a few staggering steps I have to lean myself on the wall to not fall over.

It hurts.

Where's Zoe?

Without looking out of the door I can hear someone coming for my room.

"Something happened, the machines aren't taking any vitals anymore, get a defibrillator ready ASAP!!!!"

I don't like them.

The moment I hear the person in front of my door I open it with all my might and hit him with it. I get rewarded by a crunching noise and a loud scream of pain.

I slowly get out of the room and look into the hallway.

Did not expect that...

Many people are looking at me in shock. Most of them are between the age of 14 and 18.

They all wear a uniform. It fits a school.

Where am I?

NO

More importantly.

My eyes tighten. I'm angry. I look towards the man I had knocked away. He's on the floor coughing. I think I broke one of his ribs.

"YOU"

I point at him, my voice sounds as if I had spoken with vocal cords made of sand, but it's intimidating nonetheless.

Using my power I remove all gravitational boundaries on his body and make him flow up without letting him touch any walls or objects.

"Where am I? AND WHERE IS ZOE?!?!!"

Everybody around me looks at me shocked.... well, concerning I'm only wearing a white shirt it's to be expected I guess.

Or maybe it's because I'm using my powers, but who cares anyways.

The man looks at me with collected eyes.

"Calm down girl. We've been treating you so please no violence on the school grounds."

My face distorts.

"I ask the questions. If you don't answer me within the next five seconds I will remove your limbs one by one. So be quick. WHERE AM I? AND WHERE IS ZOE?!!"

I shout the last sentence and increase the pull on his left pinky.

It breaks with a disgusting CRACK.

His face pales but he doesn't scream.

"You're in a school for espers, we've been taking care of you ever since Lane brought you here. After her fight with the maiden nobody though you would survive."

Che.

"I still did not get the other answer!!"

I shout at him and proceed to increase the pull.

He starts screaming out of pain as his pinky slowly gets ripped off his hand.

The "students" turn away but none of them says a word.

"SHE'S DEAD. Nobody could have survived that explosion without somebody like Lane protecting them. She saved your life. But your friend is dead."

dead?

I lose control over my power and he stumbles on the ground and holds his finger.

"SHIT I'm a doctor why did you do that? I saved your life twice already and you owe your life to Lane too. What do you think you're doing girl?"

I turn towards him.

My eyes are dead. Just like my love.

"Why did you save me?"

"Because you're strong"

It was a voice behind me...

A voice I knew.

I turn around faster than I ever imagined...

too fast.

everything is spinning.

I puke on the ground.

Just onto Lanes shoes. Ha serves that bitch right.

she doesn't seem to care that much though.

"How about we talk about this somewhere more private ay?"

I'm too weak to protest as she grabs me by the arm and pulls me along.

"Nothing to see her guys, just go to your classes please. And Doc? Could you come with us please? We'll fix you up don't worry about it."

I get pulled along two hallways and into another room, there Lane throws me onto a couch and sits on a chair in front of me.

The doctor positions himself behind her and seems to be massaging his pinky.

My back burns.

Che.

I jump up from the couch and towards lane. I might be hurt but I can still inflict a lot of pain onto somebo-

I find myself lying on the couch again....

My back hurts even more.

"Don't do that again."

The man behind Lane looks at me with cold eyes.

"Now that I you I will reset you as often as I want to behave ok?"

I take a deep breath.

"Where is Zoe?"

I ask towards Lane. She shakes her head and looks at me in pity.

"your friend is dead. I'm surprised that you could survive. That's why I'm interested in you. How did a lv 3 esper survive a almost lv 5 blast? The gap is too much you know."

dead...

there it is again.

"You killed her."

My eyes grow cold.

"you will pay. Remember my words. You will pay for this."

I don't make empty threats. I never make empty threats.

Lane looks at me puzzled.

"I didn't hurt any of you. It was the maiden. Put your hate towards her and work with us. The maiden kills people all over the world as long as she gets paid. She's an evil that has to be exterminated. But first tell me how you survived that blast."

I'm tired.

I'm tired of acting.

"Gravity cannot be controlled by energy manipulation..."

My eyes grow even colder as I try to kill her with my look.

The man seems to have some kind of reset ability. But he said he me. Meaning he probably need a to me from. It's a complicated ability but not that unrealistic.

I start using my power. My real power.

My back starts aching as my cells multiply at an incredible rate. Damaged cells start decaying and flow out of my wounds in a blackish slime.

"I use my power to train my body at a multitude of gravitational force... My body can take more than anything you throw at me."

I try to stare her down but she simply looks at me as if I was some kind of lab animal.

"Interesting. To take a frontal blow from the energy ball and simply shrug it off. By the way, what is that black slime running down your legs?"

I look down and notice I'm not wearing any trousers, so naturally all the decayed cells where flowing down my lower body and down my legs... it looked really disgusting.

"Special use of power. You don't need to know."

suddenly even more interested she extends her hand towards my leg. Before she can touch me I snarl at her and fix her gravitational pull to the wall behind her.

Instantly she flies... "Falls" backwards and crashes into the bookshelves stationed there.

hmm? I didn't get reset? interesting.

Lane seems disoriented. As she gets up she looks at her "new" ceiling. meaning the wall just behind me.

"Wow... This is interesting."

I look at her with hate.

"you killed my girlfriend and then you expect me to let you just touch my naked leg? Do you have a death wish?"

I really want to hurt her. But she seems unaffected and brushes the rubble and books of her clothes.

"I guess that wasn't really nice you're right. I'm sorry ok? But it was the maiden that killed your friend... not me"

As you say bitch.... the fireball was blue.. not a golden sun.. I will make you pay.

"What do you want from me?" I directly ask her.

"You are already beyond a lv 3 esper.... you probably realized already. I'm a member of the >. I'm called the . I have already reached the upper parts of lv 4. But I have the potential to become a legendary lv 5. Alfred though you where only a lv 3. But from what I can tell you're already lv 3 and are probably able to do even more... As such I wanted to recruit you."

"No" I simply answer her.

"ey?" she looks at me surprised.

"Why would I help you? You came into our school and fucked EVERYTHING up. You single handily destroyed our school life and killed the people most important to me. Why do you think I would help you?"

Again she puts up an arrogant smile.

"I saved you. You owe me. And I told you already it wasn't me that destroyed your school. It was the maiden. Focus your hate on her."

Wait I forgot...

"Are the students alright?" I shout at her.

She still looks up to me from the lower wall.

"The school was obliterated during that last blast. Nobody survived that.

Maxis... Coach Heathrow... shit... everybody is dead.

I can't take it anymore and start crying.

"You can let it out, you're save now. We will help you take revenge on The maiden. We can help you through this. Lend us your strength Alexandra. You could change the world. Make it into a better place to enjoy. And maybe you will even find a new boyfriend in this new world. Trust me it will be fine."

I remove my power from her and she surprisingly lands on her feet by jumping down. Then she walks towards me and takes me into her arms. I shudder...

Not from excitement or from being calmed down...

It was from disgust. She had killed my best friend. My new found love. And then she had the AUDACITY to tell me I would find a new boyfriend?

I will make her feel what I had felt. I would destroy the world how she knew it. I would kill her friends her family, her colleagues. Everything will decay. Everything.

"Very well..." I answer her. "I will help you. Tell me what to do and I will destroy or save. Tell me what to do... friend"

Disgusting...

"See, that wasn't too hard was it? Now rest. Soon I will introduce you to your new friends. We can change the world Alex. Trust me, I saved your life. Help me with this and you can live your life in peace."

"ok..."

I lie down on the couch.

"I will rest"

I didn't care if it was this couch... anything would do it. I needed to rest. My body needed modifications only my power could give. But first I would regenerate my body.

I will have my revenge.

Wait for me Zoe.

"She's asleep."

"hmm seems like it. Sorry that I couldn't reset her, but she didn't use something that triggered the conditions."

"yea, probably. It seems we've earned a strong ally. It seems she can control gravity. But that black sludge interests me.... It smells really bad though."

"though it seems she'll follow your orders. Good job on saving her. How did the other girl die though?"

"It was an accident. Nothing more. Never tell her, it could outright break her."

"As you will."

"Train her. We'll probably make her into a fully fledge member in around a year if she works hard. It seems she really can become a lv 4. If that's the case we need her on our side. Get one of our boys on her. I want her totally loyal. And nothing works as well as love does."

Looking over Alexandra's sleeping body Lane though about the girls friends.

Well they are dead. Alfred died.... But it seem that they had gained a new valuable asset to work with.

"We will change the world Doc. With her powers and the other new recruits we finally have the means to defeat , and all other evil organizations.

We will change it to the better. Evil will perish. That I promise you."

The doctor nods.

"It will be done. In one year they will be ready to fight with the rest of the raiders. I will not disappoint you."
