Chapter One: The Day That Everything Changed

I could have run away , forgotten everything that happened that day , and moved on with my forgotten life , never to remember my past. And that’s what I should of done. But should of , would of , and could of , are three different things. And for some idiotic reason , I stayed , part of me wanted to know who I was , and the other ….. Wanted to know why. I was probably trying to figure out what I was or what I could do or both. It was a terrible decision I came to regret.

It would have been nice if someone had told me that I wouldn’t like what I remembered , and that my past was better off forgotten , that I was better off in the unknown , rather then knowing what could have been and what had been. Things would probably been a lot better for me if I hadn’t remembered who I was. All of this could have been avoided. People would have been saved. Lives wouldn’t have been lost. All because I just wanted to know who I was…… and that was where all the trouble began.

365 days till the truth

“ What is your name “ , those were the first words I remember as I awoke, but even though that sentence had many answers , I still didn’t have one to give. “ Do you know your name ? “
“ No …….. “ , I spoke , my voice sounding cracked and broken …. As if I hadn’t spoken in a long time. The girl , whose name I didn’t know handed me a glass of water , I took a big gulp of it. My throat was as dry as a desert , it felt like it was on fire. “ We’ll work on it “ , she replied , her eyes taking in every move I made. This girl had some weird eyes , they were an abnormal golden color , and her hair was a jet black color , styled like a punk rock star. Her outfit though , was that of a doctor , but the outfit itself was completely black , almost as if she were gothic. Something else out of the ordinary was the wolf pendent hanging from her neck , where a stethoscope could have been. “ Do … you remember anything “ , she asked , her voice coming out strained , as if she didn’t want to ask in the first place. “ Nothing ……. “ , I answer , at least that’s what I think … my head as of now , was as empty as a piece of paper with no words on it ….. It was blank …. I couldn’t remember a thing , it was like I was wiped clean , and had to start over again ….. It was like my head was a full written piece of paper one minute , and the next…. It was empty , like someone erased all the words , that I had wrote… my whole life story gone with a flash …. And with it … my memories.
“ So… you can’t remember anything about yourself … ? “ , she asks , her voice timid , like she was afraid what my answer will be. “ Nope … everything’s either fuzzy , or in the dark for me at the moment “ , I spoke , my hand scratching the back of my head awkwardly. “ I was afraid of that “ , she answers , I guess she knew this would happen or something along the lines of it. “ Do .. I know you “ , I ask , watching her closely for a reaction. “ No… the general , brought you in just a couple days ago “ , she replied , her eyes showing her sorrow for me. “ Was I injured … “ , I asked , knowing fully well the answer to that. “ Yes .. You had severe 3rd degree burns , that littered your body…. They at first thought you’d escaped a house fire , but within a few hours your body had healed , it was a sight to see , someone with that severe of a burn healing that fast and with no scars to show , it was truly unbelievable” , she replied , her voice full of curiosity. I myself was shocked , I had healed that quickly …. How …. Why ….. So many questions filled my mind after she said that ….. But one stood out the most and that’s the one I went with. “ What am I ? “ , I asked , it wasn’t just a question , it was a fact , what indeed was I , a freak , a monster , something from another planet …………….. It was only the beginning of my questions , and the answers I so desired … were another universe away.
“ We haven’t figured that out yet….. But we’re getting to that ….. Hopefully we’ll discover who you are in the process “ , she answered , her voice trailing off as the door was knocked on ….. I watched as she got up and went to the door. I watched every little detail , as she reached for the door knob , and turned it , I even heard the door mechanism twist and turn as she opened the door. “ Good evening , Doctor Dark “ , the voice from outside my line of sight spoke , filling me up with general curiosity. So the girl I’d been talking to was named Dark …… what a strange name ….. but I was used to her strange appearance , so why didn’t I see this coming. “ Good evening General Jeremiah “ , Dark answered , and I had to chuckle. His name was to Jewish for a General , it made me laugh. “ So I see the patient is awake, Commander Donagan will be quite pleased “ , He spoke , finally getting into my range of vision. His hair was kind of spiky with a huge bang hanging over the eye…. While his one eye showing was weirdly colored , like mostly black with a white dot in the middle. His outfit , was different then I expected , his shirt , was just a t shirt with a weird design , that resembled the letters S. I . K put together in one symbol. His jeans were ripped and had holes in them , he wore combat boots that were oddly shiny and glossy looking. He smiled this weird smile , which showed a row of shape deathly fangs. He extended a hand and I shook it , “ Would you like to be part of the F. B. I , “ , He asked his eyes trained on mine , like he expected me to say yes. “ …. I don’t even know my name, what use am I to you “ , I ask , curious as to why he’d want someone who didn’t know who they were in his organization. “ We can make you better , faster , stronger , smarter….. We can give you a purpose , ….. All you’d have to do is give your allegiance to our commander” , He spoke , his voice holding the confidence I lacked. Something he said caught my attention , a purpose ….. They can give me a purpose …. Something I didn’t have ….. But there was a catch … swearing my allegiance to there commander …. I didn’t like the sound of that … but if they could give me answers then why not ……. “ General … I think I’ll have to take you up on this offer …. I accept “ , I replied , his eyes lit up at my response. “ Very good , welcome to the F.B.I …… Agent 13 “ , He spoke, making my eyes widen for once…… Agent 13.….. 13 …. I felt as if I heard that before ….. 13.….. Well… at least now I had something I could be called ….
“ Well commander Donagan , will be happy to hear this, from now on your Agent 13 , and your partner is Doctor Dark “ , he continue , making me chuckle , Doctor girl was my partner , well great, at least now if I got hurt or something I knew she had my back …… I watched as he headed out of the room , probably heading to tell Commander Donagan , that I was now an Agent . My eyes switched back to Dark as the door closed , she seemed shocked , I guess she didn’t expect to get me as a partner cause she’s a doctor or something. “ So I guess we’re partners now , 13 “ , She spoke , her voice holding the same confidence as the General , the same confidence I didn’t have . “ Guess so D “ , I replied , giving her a smile , which got her to look at me differently. “ Where did this D come from , my names Dark “ , she answered , “ Dark is to much of a guy name , D is a more fitting name “ , I spoke , my confidence finally showing. “ Really , fine .. You are the only one who can call me D … as long as I can call you 13 “ , She replied finally showing her own set of fanged teeth. “ ..grrrr… Deal “ , I answered , showing my teeth. She laughed , then she gasped as if she was freaked out , “ You have fangs … did you know that “ , She asked …. Her voice again held curiosity , like she was intrigued by me . …. “ No….. I thought It was normal , cause you had them … and he had them … D “ , I replied , my eyes hooked to her orbs of gold. “ You’re really a mystery , 13 “ , she spoke , which made me give her a big smile …. “ As are you D “ , I answered , making her giggle , and walk towards the door , motioning for me to follow …..
We left the room and headed down the corridor , giving me my first taste of the F.B.I headquarters. There were many rooms on either side of the corridor, it was a long way to the Commanders quarters , and we passed by many agents on the way. A lot of them where dressed in white and black , some had blood red and black , with that S.I . K. symbol on the shirt …… It made me wonder…….. What was that symbol…. It seemed familiar , yet so far away at the same time. As we headed towards the end of the hallway …. D chatted aimlessly about , rules and some other stuff. As we rounded the corner at the end of the hall we passed by a room , that D called the restroom. My eyes widen , and I run in telling her something about needing to go , or something. The room wasn’t all that great , it wasn’t totally nasty either , but I didn’t need to go , instead I went straight to the sinks ….. The mirrors hung neatly above them as they should. My eyes were trained to the reflection that stared back. My hair , was a light brown color , and it hung limply down my back , it was spiky at the top where my bangs were, my eyes were a bright green color and were abnormally huge. My face had three black marks on each cheek , and when I smiled I had fangs , bigger ones then D or the General …… My hands had small unnoticeable black claws , and my outfit consist of a black t shirt and black baggy pants , my shoes were black buckle boots ……. My conclusion was that I was demonic looking ….. I had the looks and I felt like a demon ….. Maybe that was what D was , a demon , maybe the general was too … or maybe we were just monsters…… I slowly made my way out of the bathroom and back into the corridor , and me and D’s walk continued. She began to chat about how the Commander was , and how he expected perfection, I already didn’t like him , I wasn’t perfect , and I didn’t see what the General saw in me …. But whatever it was … he liked it ………
We finally made it to his room and D knocked , She told him something about 13 ready to swear her allegiance , at which he allowed us entry. His room was filled with pictures and newspaper print , and wanted posters , it seemed as if he was after someone by a certain name…….. Anderson …. That name sounded familiar as well……. I took one quick scan of the names while D talked to him …… Two of the names seemed the most familiar , Conard and Waller …. Waller that rung a lot of bells …I felt as though she had something to do with me being here…. And Conard ….. Hmm…. I know him from somewhere….. But everything’s black and fuzzy at the moment….. I scanned the rest of the papers , they had the Star Queen as the most wanted … whoever that was … then they had something about the four revivers or something like that ….. On the top of that list was a girl named Meikara…. I felt as though…. Me and her were connected somehow…… but how….. And did she know who I truly was…… that was a question I wish I knew …….. “ 13 , do you truly want to be a part of the F.B.I family….. “ , He spoke , knocking me out of my inner conversation with myself ……… “ Yes .. I do Commander Donagan Sir …” , I replied , doing a tiny salute , that seemed vaguely familiar. He chuckled “ Welcome to the S.I …. I mean F.B.I. …………..Agent 13 “ , He answered , making me wonder what he was about to say….. I’d been doing a lot of wondering today …… and it was making my head spin…… He seemed to notice this and told D to take me to my room …… And of course …. She answered right away and began to lead me back down the corridor …….. Apparently the day was finally beginning to have it’s affect on me……
She lead me to a room and gave me a keycard explaining how to use it …. Which I barely listened to ….. My mind had been elsewhere as I entered the bare room , even as D told me she’d be right back …..
Who am I ? ……. for now I guess I’m 13 ……. Which seems very familiar ….. I know I’m now part of the F.B.I …… and they welcome me into there…. Family …. Which that word alone fills me with great sorrow….. Did I have a family ? …… and at least now I had Dark or D as I call her , my friend……. Friend …. I’ve had many I believe and ……. Now I can’t even remember one of them ……… I can’t remember anything now….. But I know I’ll find out who I am and where I’m from …… I won’t give up till I find the truth ……. thoughts of devastation and confusion tore through my mind as I lay in bed…. I needed the truth ….. Who am I , and where’s my family …… and why are certain names that the F.B.I or whatever they’re called after seem so…. Familiar as well…….. Does commander Donagan know more then he’s letting on…… Does he know me…….
As I lay there , I knew one thing , that even if the F.B.I. knew more then they were telling……that where ever I was at the moment that what ever this place was that it wasn’t some distant place anymore, it was my new home.

I was now Agent 13 of the F.B.I.

And my mission was this….

Figure out who I was …….

And find out who’s at fault ……

Kill them……..one by one……..
