The smell of dirt, the gritty feeling of earth beneath bare feet, the pain of broken bones deep inside her body. Twilight stood, confused and wondering as to how she just had been thrown through the air as this little girl did not move, her face staring on in sadness.

Tundra watched on as Twilight huffed air out, her chest being held by her left arm, "Пожалуйста, просто сдаться, я не хочу причинять тебе боль. Я не хочу, чтобы убивать снова," Tundra said as she began crying, as she did the air in the room picked up, the dirt catching the wind began swirling.

Twilight lifted an arm as a wave of dust buffeted across her body, "What is she saying! I can't understand a thing she says,"

The master was looking down and once again the mikes picked up, "She is saying that she pities you, how easy it would be to crush you, how she will enjoy doing it that it brings her to tears," The master said with a grin, Of course I wont say what she really said, 'Please just give up, I don't want to hurt you. I don't want to kill again', I cant exactly watch the fight if I am the one who ends it.

Twilight grew angry, A little girl is undermining you Sparkle, just like everyone else, just like Rainbow did. Just like your family did, just like all the kids at school, no one can be trusted. Twilight lifted once more and ran at Tundra only to slide back as Tundra screamed, the wind blaring in front of her. Twilights face contoured into a scowl as she released her magic, tearing a path through the wind she came closer and closer to Tundra. Twilight roared as a tendril of dark red bore its way through the barricade of wind and gripped Tundras leg, flinging her through the air and smashing her against a pillar of rocks that crumbled under the power of Tundras body hitting it. Twilight moved forward and crouched down gripping Tundras hair, punching her face, Tundra in turn tried to defend herself by putting up her fists.

Tundra gasped for air in between the punches, finally Twilight released her grip on her hair, standing in blood covered fists. "Is this not enough, she is only a little girl and I have shown her that she has no chance of winning," Twilight asked as she looked upward. "I mean just look at her, she is comple-" Thwak! Twilight flew into the dirt as she coughed and sharply breathed air in, turning around to see Tundra getting closer. Tundras dark black hair now becoming white, she raised her arms as Twilight was quickly hurled against another rock, then the ground. Flesh tore and bones broke.

Tundra seemed to be moving slowly but every time Twilight blinked she would flit in front of her and again she would be thrown around like a rag doll, even though her fear had been gone, there came a feeling in its place... danger.

Twilight all but knew this feeling, different from fear, knowledge of something that should be avoided. Much like animal instinct, when a mouse is in front of a snake they know not to tempt fate, rather avoid the conflict if at all possible. Unfortunately Twilight knows of her demise, she knew when she was outclassed, she was always rather smart. Alas, danger had found its ways into her mind, true fear could not compare, Twilight gasped as her blood flowed out onto the dirt. Mixing into the brown dust to make blobs of dark brown, she gritted her teeth to finally look up, where once stood a crying little girl, now there was something... it was something and nothing else, uncomprehending to the human mind. Throughout all the sciences and magic Twilight had learnt this was something different, this little girl had truly fused with the chemical they also injected into her, a new evolution of human.

Although the idea of studying such a specimen would have been really appealing to the old Twilight, currently she was more worried about having her organs punctured from her ribs, currently nine of the ten felt broken and the last was making progress to join the others. A sharp breathe escaped her as she stood, the large wound upon her abdomen released more blood as it gaped open slightly. The master grinned as he watched on, the monster pitted against a monster he created, one had the intelligence and will enough to kill, the other was a mindless machine there to do his bidding.

Tundra started walking closer once again, every step she took parted the dust in the clearing further, raising her fist once more she gripped Twilight in magic. Twilight didn't even struggle as she was lifted, the tendril of magic slithered around her left leg as it gripped tighter, once all the way to the knee it tightened its grip until the magic tendril was straight. Twilight gritted her teeth as the leg dropped to the ground, the flesh just below her knee seeped the red liquid as she attrempted not to scream, her eye never left the face of the monster.

As Tundra raised her other arm the speakers sounded off, "THATS ENOUGH TUNDRA!" the master had commanded, he stood smiling through the now broken window. Immediately Tundra released her magic and fell to the floor unconscious, Twilight held onto her own as she felt the nub of her left, it ground across the dirt as pain ripped through her nerves. Suddenly men and women in white suits rushed out and grabbed her, not gently at all and strapped her to a board with wheels, she saw Tundra be in much the same position as she was rolled away through the halls of the facility.

As they were both rolled away T3 came forward next to the master, "are we going to keep her, the formula needs to be adjusted and just maybe we can use Tundras DNA to recreate the chemical balance and Inject your new pet with it? she did still seem to be trying her hardest at not letting the pain get to her as she was wheeled away. On that fact what would you have me do, currently the leg is most likely able to heal but below her knee wont be able to heal, there is just too much tissue and muscles to heal, I could fit her with our bone replacements"

The master looked down at the torn leg upon the floor, covered in dirt, "Bone replacements? never knew we had any of that here, when did we develop that?"

"It hasn't been that long, using the electrical synapses we connect the nerves to a core inside the pseudo limb that will move all the small joints. It is made with the finest and strongest materials, the only problem we have currently are test subjects, as we haven't exactly tested them yet. Do I have permission sir?"

"Do it, we cant exactly have our little specimen limping around can we? Now I suggest you hurry as I am sure that knee with be a killer to repair... get it?" The master quipped as he began laughing, T3 walked away shaking her head, she really hated his puns.

Twilight was drifting in and out of consciousness as the pain rippled through her body, the men and women in white were stitching all of the "small" wounds she had before she noticed T3 enter whatever room they were in.

T3 looked down at Twilight, a woman held her leg that was now letting small spasms out, sweat and blood covered Twilight. "Can you hear me Twilight?"

It was muffled but Twilight could hear her so she nodded, it was painful to do anything at the moment and her ability to heal had somehow left her for the pain. T3 took up a board and pen and scribbled something before shouting out somethings, Twilight looked around in a daze before her eyes went wide with shock. A man held a large saw as two women came around with metal pipes, Twilight could tell what the saw was but her blurred vision wasn't good enough for what the others held. T3 came back around and shoved something squishy in her mouth, it hadn't broken when Twilight felt the blade, seconds later she looked up to see the man covered in red, his crisp white apron ruined.

Pieces of dirt covered flesh and bone were placed in trays and carried away out of the room by order of T3, Twilight couldn't hold on any longer though as she past out, the pain was too much for her.

Unknown hours... well she didn't know how long

Twilight woke, most of her pain subsided, she was in her room once again just staring at the roof. She brought a hand in front of her eye, some of the skin had torn and many new scars riddled her arm, she giggled slightly just before it made pain shoot up through her leg. It felt weird, she could feel the leg but not actually feel it, she pulled herself up by the sides of the bed to move her covers. When she eventually did she did not gasp, she was not surprised, she just stared at what was there.

There was a fine scar line just below the knee, the leg held no scars where there used to be many, her nails were clean and clipped too. That small mole that was just below her ankle was gone as well, she came to the conclusion that this was either someone else leg or something else entirely different. She attempted to move her leg but found it to be extremely heavy, she pushed past the pain and pulled it to the side of the bed as it fell and broke one of the tiles, Twilight lifted an eyebrow as she looked down at it.

That was until someone made her jump, "Like it?" Twilight turned to see who said it, there stood a man in an Hawaiian top and cheesy shorts, "One of my new techs that," He said as he walked in, to which Twilight raised her eyebrow. The man backed back up at her gesture, "Oh, where are my manners, when in the presence of such a beauty, names Calvin. Worked here for a few years as both an operative and a Scientist in the machine department so don't let the top fool yah', I am not dumb. That little beaut is one of my own though, using a rare metal that has the highest braking point known to man, be it magic or otherwise it will take a lot to brake that bad boy, plus it comes with its own assortment of nail colours, you get Pink, yellow, purpl-"

Twilight sighed as she lent back down on her pillow, her leg still firmly against the ground, Calvin looked up as he stopped and laughed, "What, too ht of a chick to look a nerd in the face?"

Twilight blushed slightly but sighed again, "No, your just getting on my nerves, Calvin"

"Well at least you are using my name, thats somewhat good as usually its, Oy' get over here and takes samples of some of this bullshit! T3 really is a hard ass, I mean she has me studying your DNA day and night," Calvin said as Twilight sat back up.

"She has you study my DNA?" Twilight said.

"Yeah," he said as he grabbed the one chair in the room, sitting down cowboy style, "Its to do with the chemical, we are going to up the anti and use Tundra's DNA to boost yours, some bullshit really but they wanna try it, cant say it wont hurt but it will make you a lot more bad ass"

"You have a really bad mouth, some real shit comes out of it"

"Give the girl a medal, she realized something, are you not even bothered by the fact I said were messing with your DNA? At all?" Calvin said as he put his chin on his crossed arms that gripped the chair.

Twilight sighed and then turned her head, her bangs fell over her patch as he eye held fast on Calvin, "Its not like I have a choice so why care, there are so many things wrong with life so why care at all? Do you have a good enough reason for me to care? if so do share with me your sarcastic knowledge of the shit called words that you spill," Twilight said with a half lidded eye, Calvin noticed the anger in her and sat up properly.

"Well, I don't really know to be honest, I was in the same position you yourself are in now years ago. I just did as I was told and eventually found myself where I am now, so as to say why you should care about what happens to you, I will just say. I really don't give a shit, I have seen many subjects die, many escape just to be killed and many die just after getting their first real missions. So as to why care, that's for you to decide, I would suggest killing yourself if your unhappy with your situation. Any how I am out of here, I will be back soon to take another sample of blood and adjust the electric track in the leg," Calvin said as he silently left the room.

Twilight sat there at the edge of her bed, Its not like I haven't thought to do that, I have contemplated how easy it would be, even now I know exactly how to have a painless death. Strange isn't it, she thought with a giggle, lifting a hand and clenching. I lived my life as a normal teen age girl, then I get a crime of manslaughter from two assailants who slashed me, unfairly put into a detainment facility. After which my Father dies, then at his funeral I am refused affection by my own mother, then I thought of how easy it would be to end it all. Even when the car tipped I still thought it easier to just sit and die but... but I couldn't take it so I picked life only to have it ripped from my hands, she said as she looked at her open hands, Torn asunder by being trapped in here, torn apart literally, how can one be so hated by fate. So why? why should I give fate what it wants, FUCK FATE! I will get out of this shit hall, I'll kill the master and then that bitch T3, No one is gonna stop me.

A Year Later

Steamy breathe, dead silence as she awaited her train, slow heart beats. This was fresh air, this was living, this was her life. Twilights first mission went out with a bang, literally, unlike what she said she never killed the master but she did survive the facility. She had finally become ruthless, calculative and well quipped with items for what her job entails. Codename Dark Star spread like wildfire, the jobs flowed like the targets blood that fell, this was how our story began.

Twilight arrived back at headquarters, T3 awaited her for her check up, her doses of X96-91 had been altered, it was now produced from subject Tundra. The doses were lethal to the other X numbers but Twilight had adapted to the chemical with spectacular results, her magic and bodily functions all were raised to super human levels, well that of a much stronger breed of altered human could be. They dubbed the chemical X-96-99 after being revised well. Twilight walked into the white room as T3 held her board, next to her was a stand with a needle and a new bottle of X-chemical.

"The mission was successful, Congratulations but we aren't here for pleasantries, take off your top and proceed to the bed." T3 said as Twilight began removing her clothing. Once she had done so she laid down flat on the bed, T3 came over and placed a needle with the first liquid into her arm, as it entered her arm turned darker as veins pumped. T3 took the second needle and got the bottles substances out, she turned to Twilight, "This is the final dose, I have adjusted the chemical, any further after this will cause harm to your body if we keep hampering with your DNA. This strain of Chemical is much stronger and has a lasting effect, there is a slim chance your body will reject the chemical and begin to destroy your cells where I inject the substance. Do you want to proceed?" T3 asked with a straight face.

Twilight turned to her, without batting an eyelash nodded, T3 placed the tip of the needle on her skin. As it punctured the skin Twilight watched her muscles contract, slowly it released into her blood stream. Dark veins webbed up her arm and chest spreading throughout her body as she writhed in pain, slowly the chemical merged with her DNA as it subsided into tolerable levels of pain, she gasped for air in exhaustion. "Well that had a bit more kick than the last batch, so what does this dose do exactly?"

T3 marked down some details on her ever so familiar board as she looked above it, "over the next few weeks your body will slowly begin to harden, not in a bad way but such as the carbon density of your bones will thicken and your skin and muscle tissue will tighten to save from lesser wounds when you don't have any armor... lastly would be the newly advanced healing attributes, any poison that would be deadly would be more along the lines of a minor flew and such along that line"

"Not bad, well I guess I better get over to building C17 for new recruit inductions, I'll catch you later you heathen bitch," Twilight said as she walked away flippin the bird at T3, who just smirked as she disappeared behind a white hospital curtain.
