No prologue.. ooh. Picture is Electra!
"There's a signal!" Dr. West shouted, running over to the body on the cot and giving it a look of glee.
"It's alive?" Dr. Winchester yelled, following Dr. West and staring at the robotic, but female body.
"Feel it!" Dr. West said, placing his hand on the bodies' ribs, and feeling the pumping heart.
"But it's all artificial! How is this possible?" Dr. Winchester whispered in awe.
As he said that, the body on the cot sat up, staring straight ahead. Dr. West immediately withdrew his hand and stared at the body, looking shocked, and scared.
"What are we going to name her?" Dr. West said, smiling at his colleague.
"Electra," Dr. Winchester said, "Suits her, don't you think?"
Dr. West nodded and looked at Electra curiously.
"Can she.. speak?"
"I wish you wouldn't speak to me as if I don't have feelings," Electra said, surprising both doctors, and dragging herself off the cot.
She walked around, getting used to her legs, and, as she looked around, she could see weird things. Like there was a computer in her mind. She could calculate the danger of a knife, or the sharpness. Her eyes wandered to look at the doctors.
"You are my creators, yes?"
They both nodded, too shocked to speak.
"Well then, you should know, I would like to know what kind of robot I am," Electra said, looking amused as she looked around the lab, easily calculating the danger, math problems, different languages, etc.
"Well.. You're not necessarily a robot, Electra," Dr. West said slowly, "More of a.. superhuman."
Electra nodded, looking pleased.
"And why am I like a computer?"
The to doctors shared a smile and turned back to Electra.
"We gave you some powers. You're like an enhanced human. We've never tried this on anyone.."
Electra turned away from the desk full of operating tools and turned to the two men.
"I'm going to guess you lied to me? I'm not a robot, am I?"
"Not exactly.. You're part robot. When we found you, you were dead. And we wanted to try to bring you back to life.. But we also wanted to try the powers thing. I don't know how you're alive. We had no idea it would work,"
Electra nodded and carefully picked up a scalpel, touching the tip with her finger. Gold blood withdrew.
"Why is my blood.. gold?"
The two doctors stared at her finger in surprise.
"I-I don't know," Dr. Winchester said, glancing at Dr. West.
"That's not the point," Dr. West said, "How do you know how to speak?"
Electra turned to look at him and gave him a wry smile.
"Well, I'm a superhuman, aren't I? Now that we have a name for me.. What's your names?"
"I'm Richard West,"
"Sam Winchester. Nice to meet you," FOR ALL YOU SUPERNATURAL FANS WHO WERE COMMENTING THIS ON THE PREVIOUS NAME, WHICH HAD BEEN LUCAS
Electra didn't reply and walked over to the cot, looking at Richard and Lucas' files. She grabbed them, and flipped through them quickly, reading them all in almost five seconds.
"I was not just an experiment, was I?"
"Well, yes, but you do have a purpose. A reason that you were created,"
"And what is that reason?" Electra asked, although the doctors knew she already knew the answer.
"To protect someone.."
Electra snorted, and slammed the files back on the small table.
"Yeah, sure! According to these files, I was created to kill!"
"Yes, of course.. But, it was only because someone paid us.. But then someone paid us even greater money,"
"So basically I could destroy the person I'm supposed to be protecting?"
"There is a seventy percent chance of that happening, yes, but you can learn to control the side of you that is a killer," Dr. Winchester said, trying not to anger the girl.
If she got angry, it could be bad.
"Seventy? Forget it!"
"You have no choice, Electra, because he should be here soon," Dr. West said, checking his watch.
Electra's eyes went blank, her voice robotic.
"In 2.53 seconds he should be here,"
Then she shook her head, going back to normal. And, as she said, the man who apparently bought her came, exactly 2.53 seconds later. He appeared with a 'pop' behind Electra. She turned around and looked at the man.
"Well, aren't you old?" She said.
"Electra!" Dr. Winchester warned.
The man did not seem phased by Electra, and, in fact, chuckled.
"Gave her a little sass, did you?"
The doctors smiled nervously.
"No matter. I will still be taking her- now where is the money.." The man murmured, digging in his robe pockets.
Electra studied the man while he was looking. He was wearing long robes, and had sparkling blue eyes hidden behind a pair of half-moon spectacles. He had long, white hair and beard, and Electra was tempted to touch it.
"Ah, here you go," The man said, handing the two doctors a simple debit card.
"How much is on that?"
All he did was wink at her.
As the man reached out to grasp her hand, she quickly withdrew it and glared.
"Stay still," She commanded.
Electra gazed at his eyes, and, immediately, an entire profile appeared before her eyes. Of course, she was the only one who could see it.
"Albus Dumbledore.. Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.."
She read the entire profile, while Dumbledore waited patiently. She read it extremely fast, and he was not waiting for long. Electra then grabbed his hand, giving him a look that plainly said 'do anything and I'll kill you,"
Then she felt a weird sensation, like she was being forced through a tight tube. When it stopped, she coughed madly, leaning over.
"Are you okay?" Dumbledore asked.
Electra nodded and straightened up.
"What other powers do I have?"
"Try and find out,"
Electra started to run, and, when she stopped, she looked around. The same screen appeared, all the writing in green letters and numbers. When her gaze settled on a camel, she read what the screen said. It had a picture of a camel in a square, and all the information to the side.
"I'm at a desert," She gasped in surprise, and ran back in the direction she came.
Seconds later she found herself in front of Dumbledore.
"Super speed," Dumbledore nodded, and then handed her a chunk of metal.
"Where did you get this?"
"Magic," Dumbledore said, and gestured to the chunk of metal, "Bend it."
Electra obliged, and bent the metal easily.
"Whoa," She said.
"You have many more powers to discover, but for now, let's go meet the person you are supposed to be protecting."
"What's his name?"
"James Potter."
