Spring 2034... 

      Y/n sat on the dingy hospital bed taking in everything that Marlene had just told her. Shocked that they would have to kill Ellie to create the vaccine. There was no way to sugar coat that. She sat in silence that made her ears softly ring. Minutes, maybe even an hour went by when she heard gunshots not too far from the room she was put in. Slightly startled, she stood up from the bed and walked towards the door. She went to twist the knob and investigate the gunshots only to find that it was locked from the outside.

"Fuck me." She said under her breath, twisting the knob aggressively a couple more times. She takes a step back and looks around the room taking in her surroundings, looking for anything she could use as a weapon if anyone were to come in. Looking in the cabinets and drawers, she looked under the bed and found a rusty scalpel. "That'll do." She grabbed it and hid behind the door waiting. Minutes went by, probably a half an hour she estimated but she couldn't tell, she had no way of counting the minutes to hours. Soon she got tired of waiting for someone to burst in and fell asleep on the wall behind the door.

When she woke up she saw that she was now back on the hospital sheets with a firefly soldier standing guard at the door. "Uh, hello?" She was confused as to why there was a soldier standing at the inside of the door. "Miss Miller is it?" He said, "Yeah it is." She said with a hint of confusion in her voice. "You're father, Joel Miller escaped with the girl and killed tens of soldiers, I know that's a lot to take in but I'm sorry we will have to keep you here, with us until further notice." He said then stood up, leaving the room.

"What the fuck?" She said not believing anything he said or was it her just taking in the key things he said to her? She didn't care, all she could think about was why he would leave without his own daughter? She asked herself. What did she do wrong to make him choose to take Ellie instead of herself? A couple minutes of repeating those questions in her head she became filled with anger and rage and she destroyed the room, kicking the wall, punching the door and flipping the bed on its side. While she's destroying the room a girl angrily bursts in to confront her and watches the sight in front of her. A girl with y/h/c destroying the room, of course y/n didn't hear her storm in because she was too busy screaming in rage and throwing stuff everywhere to acknowledge the other being now in the room.

After two minutes of her raging she slides down the wall out of energy, along with being dehydrated and malnourished. With shaky hands in her face and tears forming in her eyes as a few small sniffles could be heard, she hears slow footsteps coming towards her and her head shoots up and eyes locked on to this girl with blonde hair pulled back into a braid slowly walking up to her as if she's making sure she doesn't make a wrong step to make the girl on the floor jump at her. Y/n notes that she has red, puffy eyes, like she's been crying a lot. She also looked severely out of it and weak, the girl that was approaching her stopped in front of her and came down to eye level in front of her,

"Are you his daughter?"

The blonde haired girl asked in a passive aggressive tone. A couple seconds went by, maybe even a minute and the girl against the wall looked up, tears slowly falling down her face as she said,

"Yes."
