[align=center][div style="0px; width:450px; height:auto; text-align: justify; font-size: 8pt; line-height:13px; color:black;"]Death was a finality. She understood that from the moment her life changed from being a simple child who wanted to have fun and play to a teenage fighter who practiced hand to hand combat and grew into the woman she knew today. When she had to watch year after year of other soldiers dying on the battlefield or dying on the operation table because they just could save them in time. They never came back and it was something that she understood as things progressed and at times got worse. Friends and families torn apart because of a war she had yet to be able to imagine the scope of and as others came into the Project she started to realize how bad it was. Perhaps that was why she had thought the Director was on the right side of things. Searching for alien technology so that they might have a chance to settle the score against the invaders that wanted to wipe them out. But they were never fighting aliens to get the technology it had always been humans. Why hadn’t they seen it? But life moved on and they all learned to harden their hearts when agents died, knowing that they died for a reason and their memories would be forever in their hearts and minds. It was their way and their order.
If someone had come and told her that death here was just a joke tossed back and forth like easy banter she would have been disgusted. Easily so especially after the things she had seen and witnessed. Death was not a joke and it tore those one loved away in an instant. There had been rumors of someone having come back to life recently but because she hadn’t been there she discard it as a horrible lie. Yet in the stillness of night just as the sun started to break the horizon a dark figure stood about 1.8 feet tall and swaying as if standing on the deck of a sailing ship. Deep amber eyes seemed far away for a moment before the blinked once and were filled with such clarity one might find it a bit scary. A jagged breath left her throat, large ears pulling back just a bit before taking a jerky step forward and then another. Confusion began to marr the expression of the lovely melanistic feline, dark nose twitching just slightly before she swallowed. The last thing she remember was a tree so white in appearance and then nothing at all. After that she just woke up like this and now she was really confused mentally and struggling with this... this thing she had become. It was smaller than she was used to and black as night with deep amber eyes so threatening in their glare. Vague silver spotting adorned her obsidian coat but she hardly took notice of that. ”Hello....?” She called out into th night too disorientated to even bother with being stealthy. Her voice was a little different now but not by too much.
