Torn: Excerpts from the Betrayed

Prologue: Heritage:
"What I want is for this world to burn. Atom ripping apart from atom. There will be nothing left behind, no life, no bone, no ash; just like how he became because of that wretched machine. When I came to this world, I was here so I could take out my father, who I thought was attacking the safety of the world for a reason that was small and insignificant. I thought that his hunger for power was an overreaction to my mother's death. I see now that he was justified. When I lost him, I felt it so deep down in my chest. This world turned its back on me by taking him away. Now I will stab this world in its back."

"Ma'am? I was asking what you wanted to drink."

Sahira eyes flicked up as she came back to reality. She was at a small bar in Greece. The barmaid looked at Sahira curiosly.

"Oh, yeah.. uh... I'll take some wine." She says.

The barmaid writes down a note on her paper, "and can I get a name?"

"Sahi, Sahira Venator."
