Starry Nights ~ The Naturals
Stella Marie never wanted all this.
It was her own fault, really.
If she hadn't snuck out that night.
If she hadn't gotten into that car.
If she hadn't been taken.
Everything would be normal.
But she had, she did, and she was.
And now, at 17 years old, nothing has changed, except for her.
She has changed.
She can't see things, not really, but their past.
She sees the path, the route, their lives have gone on, and why.
She sees emotions in scenes.
She sees the trauma in people, not on purpose of course.
I just came to her, like breathing.
It's just, if you can't see the past, how do you know who to trust?
She grew up never trusting.
Never growing.
And now it's going to help her.
FBI cold cases.
Other "naturals".
A family.
And heck, if they want her, what can Stella do but accept?
