When Freya woke up it smelt like Phenolic.

"where am I?" her head felt heavy. Slowly she opened her eyes, it was

a sunny day and saw the white ceiling, a man was putting flowers on the bedside

table.

-Hello, Kith what's the time?

-C... Commander! You're awake!

And then the man named Kith ran

yelling NURSE! DOCTOR! THE COMMANDER... SHE'S AWAKE!

As she was trying to remember her

forehead frowned ... As she started to remember that scene...Her loved ones

lying on the floor... Covered in blood... And her hands were wet with

blood...she sat down quickly...

A sharp pain pierced her. And her

wound opened up again. The doctor hurriedly entered the room and quickly gave

her an injection to calm her. She tried to sit down but felt heavy like she was

drawing in a deep deep sleep. On the verge of losing consciousness, she could

only hear Kith's worried voice fading away.

The military doctor carefully stopped the

bleeding and dressed her wound again. He looked at Freya with his deeply

concerned eyes but quickly pulled his gaze away after giving Kith some advice

he left. And Kith with trembling heart sat down beside her praying.

The next day when Freya woke up it

was already midnight. Kith was sitting on a chair beside her fast asleep.

She slowly tried to sit down.

As thoughts ran through her mind she

sat up quickly knocking off the fruit plate which woke Kith.

-Commander you're awake! I'll call

the doctor.

-No. Wait, how many I've been here?

-Five Days Commander ...

-What about mother father and Fred?

Suddenly Kith falls silent, his gaze

fixed on the ground.

And from Kith's silence, Her heart sank

Did she fail to protect them? ... Did she fail to save her only family, her parents,

her little brother... are they ...

For a moment her whole world went blank...

With her voice trembling Freya asked Kith

-How did this happen? I remember I called for help shortly after the attack ...What went wrong Kith please tell me ...

But Kith remained silent his eyes were getting teary

-They are at least alive, aren't they? ASSISTANT COMMANDER KITH ANSWER ME!

-I'm sorry Commander we couldn't save them. They launched another attack after you left the scene. Apparently, they discovered the identity of the Commander's family and wanted to execute everyone. Fortunately, we were able to capture them and erase the evidence but...the assassin we caught... Commander? Commander? Are you alright?

-Where's the Chief?

- Commander you look pale... Calm down the chief will visit you

Tomorrow morning you need rest right now I'll call the doctor for you.

 After Kith left, Freya was alone in the room. As the room falls silent all the pain inside her started to burst out as if she was trapped in a kingdom of isolation tears started to fill her eyes her fists clenched...

Then a deep voice spoke

-Ah...Your wound will open up again. Calm down...

(GUESS TO WHOM THE DEEP VOICE BELONGS?)
