Brown Haired Memory
The next couple of weeks went by slow, seemingly dragging along on purpose, to torture the woman who was handcuffed to the bed. Though, as the same tall Blue Skin from the first day came to gather her up, she still hadn't come to terms with the little information she was given. As usual, they kept up with calling her that name, the Murderer, but she wouldn't---couldn't accept it till she found out who she was. So, she took the name her kindly cat nurse, Nurse Pepper, started to call her, Fallen. That was only part of it, Nurse Pepper had a longer version of it, Fallen Backward in Time.
Fallen had been curious to why this was the name chosen, and had asked many times but she only ever gotten a smile in return. She is woken from her day dreaming as the door to her room is slammed open without warning.
"It's time, Murderer, make peace with yourself and your gods, if you worship any," The look on his face as he said that part made her believe that he thought that she did. "I'll be back by noon to take you to the ship. From there, you'll be taken to the center of the city for a universe-wide execution." And with a smile, he slams the door shut.
Nurse Pepper chuckles under her breath as she unlocked Fallen's handcuffs to help her get dressed.
"They all seem so proud of themselves. 'We caught the Murderer!' Well, I say your time hasn't come, not yet."
Fallen looks at the feline in confusion. "What do you mean? There's no way I can escape them, millions of eyes will be on me."
Nurse Pepper looks back the door before slipping something into the Timelady's hand. Two things, actually, a sonic laser, simply made as it was just a silver rod with a button and brass watch, a little more complicated as it actually worked and had beautiful, intricate designs that looped and twisted around on the shiny metal. Nurse Pepper gave her a moment to look over the objects before she curled the woman's fingers over them, her paw...hands strong and steady over hers.
"You must keep these things hidden, at least till its time."
"Time for w--" The Nurse cuts her off by placing a gloved finger over her lips.
"When its time, you'll know. The laser is to help you later on, the watch is to help you now. When the time is right, just click the button that opens it up and off you go." Nurse Pepper's expression was solemn, we both knew who they'd go to after I escape.
"Why are you doing this, Nurse Pepper? Why me? You know what I've done."
"Yes, I do, my sweet Fallen. But I owe you my life, I wouldn't be here without you. My family wouldn't be here without you."
Blinking, stare at her with wide eyes for a moment. After a moment of silence, I fling myself into her arms, which immediately wrapped tightly around me.
Pulling away, I examine the watch closer after realizing i still had time before they came to get me and I had to escape. The more I looked at it, the more familiar it seemed, and it wasn't longer before a sharp pain flashes through her head and throws me into a forgotten memory.
It was of a man, a man with floppy brown hair and dark green eyes, eyes filled with worry, love and anger. Behind him stood a tall woman with fiery red hair and an expression that was torn between awe, fear and a fierce protectiveness. The man was talking to me but the loud sound of guns bombs and screaming canceled out his voice, then he hands me the watch. The same one I held now.
