"It's a girl," a strong feminine voice stated firmly as a beautiful woman clad in a long flower gown, her soft silver hair gleaming as she rubbed the place where her baby resides.

"How do you know?" A man comparable to the sun itself asked as he leaned down to come face to face with the woman, grey eyes sparkling with interest.

"Mother's instincts."

"Ah, Yes. I never really got that."

The silver haired woman let out a soft laugh as she smiled brightly at her husband, "and never will you ever until the day you decide to become a woman."

A look of absolute mock horror crossed his handsome features as he gasped melodramatically, "my goodness! How dare you think suck a repulsive thing!"

The two shared chuckles and conversation in a gorgeous garden atop a long wooden bridge, half covered in view by the thick foliage of many colors. Everything in that perfect scene seemed like a fairy tale, from the clear, pristine river that rushed with a gentle melody below to the softly rocking canoes below. Bright flowers of all the colors of a rainbow and beyond, morning dew sprinkling everything like fairy dust. But despite how beautiful and alluring it all was, nothing was compared to the shining couple as they cheerfully teased each other, Love ever present in their gentle eyes before the woman double over in pain, gasping as throbbing pain erupted throughout her frail body.

"The baby! It's coming!" She shrieked as the man's eyes widened before carrying her heaving body into the tall building beside the calm river, almost sprinting along the gorgeous corridors without a backward glance before finally bursting inside a grand room filled with nurses and laying her down on the white cot inside the gleaming room prepared for this occasion.
Despite his clouding worry, the golden haired man could t stop himself from muttering in wonder, "I'm going to become a father. . ."

Little did he know, he was going to maybe have a daughter that surpassed all laws confining this realm.

...

When the last sound left my anxious lips, I was thrown into a seemingly endless hole of nothing but darkness, making my eyesight blur by its sudden lack of light that I had grown accustomed to.

. . . Where am I?

I strained for my senses to detect anything other than the utter silence being presented to me, hoping for a faint smell, an echoing voice or even the sense of solid ground beneath my two feet. Unfortunately, my hopes were quickly vanquished as I sat there impatiently for what felt like centuries.
Well.
This is getting insanely boring.

I was just about to give up on ever returning back to the world where the voice promised me before I heard whispers.
Just the faintest sounds penetrating my mind but regardlessly, it gave me hope. Was someone coming to rescue me? Was I going to get out of this endless black prison?

After waiting for quite a while, I sighed in utter defeat, What was I expecting anyways? A bunch of random astronauts in their little space suits coming down here to break me out? That thought was almost ridiculous enough for me to chuckle. Key word: almost.

Suddenly, a shriek just about blasted my calm eardrums to pieces as I felt the dark space shift violently, if I was in a bottle of sorts, that person outside sure wasn't handling me very gently, I noted, unamused. Like, come on, give a girl a break once in a while, first sitting in this place in eternal darkness, now getting my head blow apart. Today was definitely not going my way.

Wait. . . I still have my memories of what happened in my past life.
Why's that? I thought the voice told me I would lose them regardless of my choice. Oh, well, not that I'm complaining, however, I was glad to not have to restart my education all over again.
That, would be absolutely hell to go through.
