    Katayaa is a survivor. Against remarkable odds she has survived: A childhood in a place not meant for children - The destruction of her world - The loss of her people - The crash that should have killed her. Now she's surviving something worse. She's been taken by the same force that erased her species. They rebuilt her body. They're keeping her alive. They won't let her go. And they're watching her like she matters. That's the part she doesn't understand; Why her? Because this isn't imprisonment. It's preparation. As Katayaa is forced deeper into her own memories, she begins to uncover fragments of a past that doesn't line up - connections that shouldn't exist, truths that were never meant to survive. And the more she remembers... the clearer it becomes: They didn't save her by accident. They chose her.

    ゚.+:。∩(・ω・)∩゚.+:。 19 y/o Anastasias lives in Germany and is Russian. (She's not a Russian because I support the Russians in the war! I'm neutral.) She has trust issues, and doesn't know what to do with her life. I'm probably gonna describe blood scenes, maybe sexual assaults and mental health problems at some points. So if you don't like this kinda stuff you shouldn't read this. Btw this is like the first I'm writing a story outside of my English classes... yeah, please don't judge me because I'm German and my English isn't the best. (But I trieeed (*T^T) ) If you like it I'm gonna write more if not I'll just stop. Oh and please leave feedback in the comments, if you have some advice for me (^з^)
