The next ti I woke up it was clear that a significant portion of ti had passed, if only because of the stacking debuffs that had started to weigh up on my system. Currently the system was proclaiming that I had a strength and manna usage debuff that had stacked twice, which ant I had been under for two days.
Two whole days.
That was technically half of my life in this new world that I had spent completely asleep.
It was also two days that Lara could have been doing absolutely anything she wanted without anyone keeping her in check.
"Ah, I see you're finally awake," The voice of Squadron Leader Belana caused to snap my eyes open in an instant.
BB said as I clenched my hand into a fist, ready to swing, BB cut in. As far as explanations went, it made far too much sense for to be comfortable.

Lara paced back and forth with a wild glint in her eye. The screaming of the Null Space Invader that she was working on ant nothing to her. All she was concerned about was successful hybridization with the genetic code of an Earth creature known as a King Cobra, so kind of animal that belonged to a greater species called the snakes.
It was her next big experint. King Cobra on Earth were supposedly fast and incredibly venomous, and they might be able to succeed where her spider hybrid had failed. She was sure that the black widow DNA she had managed to splice into the genetics of the previous hybrid strain would have been strong enough, but the brittle exoskeleton of the creature proved to be too weak against blunt force trauma and stabbing attacks- a weakness that the original Null Space Invaders had anyway.
She was beginning to get steadily more and more excited.
With that damn Jacob Lyre out of the picture, as well as Akash the last of the Eldrani, she would have no problem laying waste to Prespian city.
And then then her father would see.
She wasn't soone that needed to be kept locked up and away from all of the fighting.
She wasn't soone that needed to be protected.
She was the one that people needed to be protected from.
Because she was going to do to that world what her father had done to her mother all those years ago when he thought she wasn't watching. When he thought she had already left.
She was going to rip the beating heart out of his precious perfectly defended world and bring him to his knees.
