Cain was in his bunk, in his room. Thinking. Just, thinking. He is a very complicated character. He doesn't remember anything beyond a couple of years ago. He just remembers waking up in the medical wing with his friends that he doesn't know. The Doc had to explain it to him. He had no other friends, he had no other life before this. He was Doctor Doctor's creation.
Yeah, that's his name. Doctor Doctor. We call him Doc. Cain knows he was supposed to remember something, its like reaching into your pocket and bringing out your wallet, and finding that its empty. His door opened. He thought he locked that stupid thing. Banshee stuck her head in and said, "Hey. Its almost time for dinner. Just thought you should know."
Banshee had black hair, green eyes, and perfect features. He grunted. "Thanks." He said. She closed the door and he listened as she walked away. That was one of the 'friends' he was hanging around with. He got up and stretched. He was six feet tall, fairly muscular, and had a set of black hair and brown eyes. He felt his face, where that scar was. That scar was there too. It started at his forehead, and made a jagged line down below his lip. He had the standard jumpsuit that his friends wore. Grey, with a thick black stripe going down his side. He left his room and bumped into Noland.
"Ow. Watch wear you're going Cain." Noland snapped. "Sorry. You heading to the lunch room?" Noland got up and dusted himself off. Noland was scrawny, he had some muscles, but he's just scrawny. He had blue eyes, and Banshee usually called him carrot top. They said that Cain did too, all the time. "Yeah. What you think they're serving today?" Cain shrugged. They walked to the lunch room and passed one of the only hallways with decent windows. Cain stopped and said, "Ya know, you go ahead Noland. I'll catch up with ya later." He sighed and said, "Try not to miss it dreamer boy. We're going to combat practice afterwards." Cain nodded, not taking his eyes off of the window.
The reason he always looked out that window, was because the Earth looked so beautiful from this side of the moon. He enjoyed the view. You can even see that Colosseum from here. Its just a tiny dot, easy to miss if you weren't looking for it.
There was one thing he remembered. A scene, in his head. He closed his his eyes as he thought of it. He was running down a hallway, leading a girl by her hand. It was down this hallway, actually. They got to the door at the end, but it wouldn't open. The door on the other end opened to a unit of soldiers. One of them fired.....he cried out her name.....and she was gone.
That girl, whoever she was, was important. He doesn't remember anything about her. Except the name.
"Selina." He muttered to himself.
