Katherine

Chapter 1- My past

I had previously lived on Jupiter. I had just lived day by day as a regular citizen. There were always greenhouses and domes to make Jupiter warmer. I always just mind my business and try not to get in anybody's way. I'm sure you are constantly wondering how we all live on Jupiter and I shall answer that thought. 50% of humans were...well-- regular humans and the other 50% were immortal human beings. The first 50% of humans that were regularly living as beings that could possibly die were wearing space suits that were protected from the cold temperatures of Jupiter and had to go into war with the other galaxies. Yes, it would have been more logical to bring the humans that were immortal into war but the other galaxies would only fight with humans that could die so that it would be fair and both Galaxies in war could lose. Also, might I add, how we could tell that you were immortal or not is that their eyes have a blue outline during the day and during the evening they turn back to normal. Whenever we find this out they usually have to the doctors and scientists (on Jupiter it's technically the same thing). I was the only being that was both immortal but when I woke up the next day, my wounds were present somehow. I had once tried to hang myself and see what wound happen. I woke up the next day completely fine but I felt a strange pain in my neck.... and there it was-- the red lines all around my neck where the rope had been hanging yesterday. Many people had tried to turn me in, thinking that I was mortal because my eyes had the blue tint even during the evening. The occasions of people turning me in are still recent. Like on Earth, you see different people that aren't familiar to you everyday. So, almost everyone had turned me in everyday. Finally, they made a announcement to every living being about my "condition" so the scientists/doctors and myself can stop being bothered by other citizens. I had decided to go to the doctor's station. I understand that it was 36 hour drive and I didn't care. I wanted to thank them for doing what they did. So that's what I did. Three days later I had finally arrived at the station. I had walked passed the receptionist. She had of course gotten super mad at me because I hadn't asked for an appointment. In any case, I walked right in and pushed past the scientists door and there (of course) I saw all the doctors/scientists. I saw all of them were incredibly young and I mean..... like.... 11 or 16 year olds and then I remembered that our most intelligent people were around that age and were also immortal. Then I saw it--- the most isolated room-- even though it was connected to this room it was a security door and well...you see.... when there was a security door it was extremely important. Meaning that important things or people were held in them. The security doors were also pretty rare-- meaning that was the only security door in all of Jupiter. I remembered the code from when I was born. How you ask? Well... The code was the year of my birthday, which was 2001 and citizens are born in the security lab room. I swear it was destined to happen; for my birth year was a code to a rare security door. Specifically MY generation was such an honor. In any case I walk in the room and expect a very young scientist but... what I saw was a scientist maybe 6'1 and looked like his body belonged to a man in his 20's yet.... he had gray strands in his hair and when he turned around he had lines around his mouth and nose. I also noticed he had bags under his eyes. I realized I had been staring at him for a while and so I snapped out of it and ask his name. I noticed that he was about to ask me the same question but he answered me first anyway. I said "Leslie? Well...hello there Leslie, I'm Katherine. It is incredibly nice to meet you." I now had seen that he was confused and I asked him what was wrong. He had answered me "well, it truly is nice to meet you but for one, you're not a scientist, a doctor nor a rude person like what I'm use to confronting" he continued "I'm also confused as to why the famous Katherine Garner is gracing me with her presents when she can live her live freely without being turned in all the time now." I answered "well, that's exactly why I came here, you see.... to thank you for doing so." I smiled widely even though I expected him to dismiss me and be mean about it all. I didn't expect what he did next, at all. I was confused on why he started laughing and then... he hugged me, thank ME for saying thank you and actually meaning it. I was smiling so wide and said "it's about time someone were truly thankful, so I took it upon myself to do so." he kept on laughing and when he had finally stopped he said "that is truly genius!!!" did.... he basically say I had some form of intelligence? I believe he did. I was the one who started laughing this time and asked "ME?! INTELLIGENT?! OH PLEASE!!!" I continued "THAT'S COMPLETE BULLSHIT!!!" he said it was true and that I was the most beautiful, strong and intelligent women he had ever met. I looked at him in complete disbelief and he told me that it wasn't a lie. I said "oh pleaseee, I really doubt it!" he took my hands and intertwined his fingers with mine. He pulled me toward him and kissed me. He put his hands on my waist and I put my arms around his neck. We both pulled away for air and he said "Katherine Rosie Garner..." he got on his knees and took my hand with both his hands and held it tightly. At first I had thought that he was gonna propose to me but that wasn't the case..... He asked me to be his girlfriend. I instantly said yes and we started dating, I moved so I can have my house closer to his work so I could visit him while he was working if I wanted to. We would have dates everyday, going somewhere different everyday. Some days we would go different restaurants and stores, other days we go to his work and I help him make new antidotes and new vaccines to help all the citizens live without diseases. 3 years later we were married and had two baby girls. The next day he had discovered that there are other planets and wanted to explore them. Out of no where he started packing a bag. I asked him "Are you really going to explore these planets now?!" he told me he HAD to or they'd explode or... Something bad might happen to them.
