Chapter t.i.tle: A Fraction of Me (2)
Chapter no. 2
(Prologue)
(Elizabeth's POV)
I got ALL because of a military mission.
I was sent to a nuclear plantation where a large syndicate base was situated underground. The group is involved in large store smugglings, human farming/ trafficking, all types of cybercrimes, politician a.s.sa.s.sinations, suicide bombing in high-end subdivisions and drug dealings. It was an accident that a nuclear bomb exploded and we were there.
Radiation wiped out half of my people, the rest were injured, disabled through life, disfigured or for me abnormalities in DNA that has caused a defective mutation and fall into the category of having cancer cells. We gained generous merits for having a successful mission but it caused us our lives. The families of the soldiers I went with to the battlefield felt the grief of losing their beloved ones, and I wasn't excluded either. They are like my second family, yet a mission sent them far ahead. The most painful thing is not just losing them, but being helpless as I watch my people die.
A tear escape my eye as I reminisce the events
Here I am, waiting for the chapter to end.
I have been a good daughter to my parents and a good student under the teachings of my siblings. I was a good leader and an inspirational teammate to my comrades. I have served the country to the best of my abilities and I am proud of the achievements that I have garnered over the years. I have no regrets if death claim the life that I treasured the most. It's just sad that I have not met the man destined to me in this life, and if I have another lifetime to spend I will want to live experiencing the things that I have not tried to do in this life.
Then I saw a blinding light, it made me close my eyes with a smile on my face.
I heard the dripping of the water and the deafening sound of the end.
Footsteps in a hurry and voices conversing with worry. I feel the air as it blew my face that I almost forgot to breathe. The curtains were fluttering and the doors were filled with hidden cries of the outside world. I feel the electricity as it tried to revive my beating heart that has forgotten its pace.
Piece by piece, I saw something that I will never forget.
Before the darkness took me I remembered what the doctor said.
Words that will be instilled inside my head, words that I have heard a few times before, words that I've spent sleepless nights crying and words that will break my father's fragile heart. People live, and leave without readying themselves that's why most souls never achieved enlightenment.
I gave my best shot, but this is where the chapter signed its end.
I no longer feel the pain.
I no longer hear voices.
Am I still alive?
The answer is
NO.
