DMA HQ, Upstate New York October 29, 2029 3:00am First came the pain, the incomprehensible pain as an insane amount of pressure was felt in her skull. A burning feeling followed, it was as if her entire body was in a fire. She was practically screaming as she trashed around in agony. The operating table restraints stopped her from flying off the table. What was strange was that she couldn't see out of one eye. Suddenly a group of doctors rushed into the room, one of them began shouting orders to the others before checking on her to see her status. [b]"She's not supposed to be awake, quickly! Inject the anesthestic!"[/b], the doctor ordered to his assistants. Mallory entered the operating room with a concerned look on her face, Mallory held her hand as she screamed so hard until she made no noise at all. Suddenly a stabbing pain jolted up her arm, she looked to her arm to find the anesthetic had been introduced into her bloodstream and in a matter of moments she was unconscious again. She had no dreams, no memories, only fragments of fragments, feelings felt from past events however she could not associate them with a visual representation. She felt fear, pain, and sorrow at first. Then came anger and hate but she did not know wat causes it. Finally came pain once more but unlike the first, here it was worse but shorter. When she awoke she was restrained to a hospital bed but it was clear she wasn't in a hospital for the facility was too high tech. She struggled to get out of her restraints but to no avail instead the noise signalled those outside the room to enter. Mallory burst into the room with a straight face but with worry in her eyes. She didn't know who Mallory was but she had the feeling they had some sort of relationship. Finally, after looking her over, Mallory spoke,[b]"Its been months how do you feel"[/b] [color=fff200][b]"I feel like shit but who are you? More importantly, who am I?"[/b][/color] [b]"I was told you'd have no memory, I'll have you given a run down of what's happened and who you are later. Right now you need to rest, the facial reconstruction isn't complete yet?"[/b] [color=fff200][b]"The fuck do you mean 'facial reconstruction'? What happened to me?!"[/b][/color] Mallory was hesitant at first but after a brief moment pulled out her phone and turned on the front camera. Her face was destroyed. What they were able to rebuild was perfect but the part they hadn't completed yet showed everything. Her skull, or at least the exposed portion of it, was replaced with metal. The exposed site was bloody and she looked like a monster. She quickly threw the phone and it shattered upon colliding with the wall. Mallory sighed but quickly got over it as shed simply have another one provided for her. [color=fff200][b]"What happened to me?!"[/b][/color], she screamed in rage before breaking out on tears. The tear droplets felt lke acid burning her as they slide down her face. Mallory aid nothing at first but finally spoke, [b]"You are a DMA agent. You were, technically killed, but I pulled a few favors and had you brought back...you're welcome"[/b] She shook as soon as she heard that statement. She had died?! How? And why was she brought back? [color=fff200][b]"Why?.."[/b][/color], was all that she said before attempting to feel her exposed skull. It was strange, the metal skull could feel pain and she felt every agonizing moment after touching it. [b]"You're important to the DMA. To important to let die when your work has just begun. It took three months with the best minds combined with the best in cybernetics to bring you back. Even so you'd never gain your old memories, that section of the brain was destroyed. Despite that you should still have all the skills you learned so once you fully recover you'll be put back into the field. This time with a competent partner"[/b] There was a long silence as she stared down as the hospital bed. She died but was brought back to do what? Why? She had no memories of who she was, a second chance at life the question was if she wanted a second chance. [color=fff200][b]"What's my name?"[/b][/color], she asked without looking up. Mallory didn't reply immediately but after some thought so answered, [b]"Your name is Pariah"[/b].
