In Two Minds

Earth X Part One

There were times when her job sucked, it turned her soul inside out and pierced through her heart, what remained of it, like a knife.

The smell cut through the air like a hot knife through snow, it was rancid, recoiling she screwed up her face in disgust, she'd seen many sights in her time but never anything like this. Humans caged in prison pens all for things they couldn't help, religion, sexuality the list was endless, as was Quinn's anger. 

The man sneered, mistaking her disgust for something else. "I see you echo my feelings, Captain Wilson, you are so like your mother it's alarming." 

Anger boiled further within her at his words, at the smug self-satisfied look on his face, in this world, her mother had been a high ranking Nazi officer, loyal to the Fuhrer, she had died they said, murdered the culprit was yet to be found. 

"I am honored Sir, truly I am to hear you speak so highly of me." She cursed herself silently, she remembered this man from her time, he was nothing like this, this Quentin Lance was a beast, a monster who believed in the Nazis ideal of beauty and perfection. 

"Look at these creatures Wilson, disgusting mistakes." Quinn raised an eyebrow and took in the unfortunate people before her, eyes as dead as their hope. I want to rip out your throat and throw it to the guard dogs!

Quinn laughed her usual fake arrogant laugh. "Indeed they do look better secluded and kept away from the rest of the population." He laughed again, his eyes filling with a disturbing darkness. 

Turning to her he sighed, took her in for a few seconds starting at her feet and finishing with her hair, black but pulled back tight in a bun, it made her face look severe and stern. 

"I am thankful you recovered from your little disease Captain Wilson, I'm afraid my daughter showed no inclination to do so." Disease, what the fuck!

"It is as I told my wife as she wept that night, it is simply not natural for a woman to love another woman, the same for men, a woman was made for a man, to bear his children." Why does this sound like the beginning of a Tammy Wynette song?

"Oh yes, of course, I'm sure glad to be cured." Grinding her teeth she eased the anger she was feeling. You can't be cured of being Gay, it's not a disease this is fucking crazy. 

"I'm afraid my daughter corrupted you, I apologize that as you know I made sure she didn't do it again." Quinn shivered at the cold heartless words that easily spewed from his hateful mouth. 

She silently cursed herself for having to come into a world where another version of Sara had existed, she was long gone now of course as was this world's version of herself, she just disappeared it had been easy for Quinn to impersonate her doppelganger, who would challenge someone who looked just like Quinn Wilson of Earth X? 

She had also learned in this world her brother had been killed, taken into one of these camps and killed for being with a man, Quinn knew her brother was bisexual it had never been an issue but here, of course, it could kill you in the most prolonged and painful way. 

"There are events happening that will push us further to our goal," Lance whispered to her, a perfectly sculpted black eyebrow rose in interest. 

"Really, this is interesting." Very interesting, I want to get this job done and get out of this hell. 

"We will be having guests very soon." Quinn frowned at his cryptic words, she watched him walk away enjoying the view as he strolled hands behind his back along the fence looking in one what he considered inferior. 

She frowned, what had he meant by guests she had been here months now, found her way into the inner circle, no mean fete when the very appearance of them turned her stomach. No one had said anything about this, something told her this was not going to be good news.
