Laura was talented at many things and because of this, they needed her back at Team X. Wonderful. Except, this had come after a long stint of a life most would consider horrible. No one had taught Laura right from wrong so she'd entered into a life of prostitution along side of the occasional assassination she was hired for.
This managed to change the girl. She'd been so close to something resembling human before she left and now? Now, she was back to the stoic, dark child she'd been before only moreso.
The men in the jeep that drove her from the airport to base tried to chat with the pretty girl in the back, only to be met with blank stares that unnerved even the toughest of them.
Unloading her single bag from the back of the jeep, they didn't offer help. She told them not to. She could handle it.
Silently, the men gave her an ID card and another bag, this one full of regulation clothes. She was fine with that.
Every place had rules. She was made to obey the rules of a place like this and do what those in charge told her to.
Wordlessly, she made her way to the main building. She sniffed the air, recognizing old scents and registering new ones the same way she'd recognize the sky was blue and the grass was green.
Simply put, she did not care.
Emotions were gone, friends. Have fun with this one.
