Cursed Fate | Invite Only

The eighteen year old red head's attention snapped forwards toward the door upon hearing the approaching of foot steps and voices getting closer.

She remembered the sanctuary offered by Jared Nomak, how he and his people offered a place to hide and be safe...she turned them down, she would not suddenly turn her back on her loved ones, her friends..the Order or Dragons.

As Ellie, Jeremy, Golanski and whoever else entered the room, Yuki would slowly stand and lay down on the medical bed, her head laid down on the padded cushion as two Order Science directors slowly took a needle and a IV bag and pressed it into her blood stream.

Everything was there before her...she could hear him, Golanski talking to Jeremy and Ellie...her aunt and uncle before she slowly fell more and more off the plane of awareness and fell asleep.

She recalled the day of her exile. Sitting by at Kyoto as Yuki, who had replaced her ill-fallen brother as the Shogun of the Blood Dragons, sitting with the Sisters from the GC, the Order leadership and their escort and the Bundschuh leadership...after the meeting and her okay to allow the meeting members to rest on the base...she recalled a vivid sirens call from outside the rocky rogue planetoid that was Kyoto.

Slowly getting into space, she could not help but notice the Outcast, Emissary there, perched on top of the base like a hawk waiting to strike its prey...and there at her side, were the Sister's of Light conversing with Emissary.

The goth-looking female turned to Yuki, who had no idea who Emissary was, and curiosity took hold of the young shogun at that time and she moved to speak with her...

Thankfully, the Grand admirals watchful eye was alerted and he took to space with his escort, just in time to stop Yuki as Emissary tried to lead her to Tohoku. In her dazzed and confused state, he ordered to bring Yuki back by force...

While at first the Dragons and Order had the upper hand, Yuki managed to defeat two fighter crafts and another Dragon gunship alone with her own crewed Hachiman gunship...however injured and limping away, the Order and Yuki's friends from the Sirens bell finally located her and brought her back..

This marked the moment when Yuki was no longer safe in the Dragons, taking the Tome into her arms as Golanski demanded, and she fled to Bretoina, hiding under the protecting of the armed forces on Cambridge and under her new name, Emiko Hunter.

She went to school, learned mining, manfuctoring, construction and even some medical skills while at school on Cambridge...yet even this sanctuary did not last long when she was located again, this time by Division nine and the Keepers themselves, forcing her to fleet to the edge worlds where she finally lost control of her new salvaged Council gunship and it stopped there...she called for help, and felt like it was days before the Order finally found her and brought her home to Akabat...

Since that time five months ago, Yuki had not left Omicron Mu or Epsilon, remaining under the care of the Order captain Rika Hunter and her family as she was trained by Aelita and the commanding forces of the Order in how to defend herself and how to fight...

Five months of intense training, including that with blade, gun, and spaceborne combat. Even going as far to be put through marine based combat which she managed to scrape by and pass as well...yet all good things come to an end when the Commune found her a few days ago, her cover broken..

She recalled talking to Golanski and Ellie, asking them to hide her entirely, and if needed, change her body surgically, and to give her a new name. She didn't know that her memory however would also be taken from her, and the only thing she would retain is her skills she learned from the Order trainers, those from her teaches on Cambridge, from her siblings in the Dragons, those that taught her on the Sirens bell and those skills the Bundschuh, Order and Dragon leaders taught her..

Before she blacked out, a weak sentence escaped her shaking body as she awaited her new life...she knew, deep in her heart and mind..that this was the last time she might get to see Golanski, Jeremy or Ellie...she knew she was going to be put into cryosleep deep under the earth of Akabat...for how long, she didn't know, only those in the Overwatch did.. as her eyes finally slide close..her words escaped her.

"Thank you for saving me...goodbye..."

And finally..her eyes slid close as she was prepped for her next path of life..
