I started my morning off with a normal cup of coffee and a complimentary existential crisis. Then the bomb went off. Next thing I knew, I was crawling around, screaming out names and searching for any sign of life. Every person I found was gone, dead as doornails. The social workers and rescue teams showed up hours later, only to find they were too late. They bombarded me with questions, asking anything that could help them figure out this catastrophic event. Nothing came out of those talks. Eventually, they quarantined the area as unsafe, packing up anything of interest or use, and then leaving. For the next few years, I was shuttled around the world, everyone wants to see the only survivor of the Tiksiva Cataclysm. My face became known around the world, the only remnant of an entire civilization. They call me Nesya, the Miracle. I'm under world protection twenty-four/seven and no where close to being normal. But this isn't what I deserve. I should have died with my people, and instead, I'm the face of their loss. Why? Because I'm the reason the bomb went off.

I wasn't special, I wasn't a marine or a scientist sent here from earth to study Pandora, I was a behaviorist-some say behaviorists are scientists too; but the brain isn't made up of mathematics and hope, it's like the roots of trees. Forever speaking but unheard. I study people's brains and their behavior. I don't look at it with hope and faith. I'm nothing special, not really. When I was accepted to help with Project Pandora, I was exhilarated. This was my big break, something to get me out there. I never expected for it to spiral into my life unprofessionally-become personal, emotional. That I would have to fight in a war between man and alien, choose between my own people and a clan of beings that accepted me-welcomed me, trained and made me one of them. This wasn't supposed to become personal, but it did.
