Backstory:
Xiao Lan was not always the person she was today.
Xiao Lan used to be quite different and maybe if things had gone differently...she could have ended up different as well. Maybe she could have had a different job even in this world even. All if the events that plagued her since the beginning had just never happened. If you could move faster than time would allow...what would you give just for the wish to go back and change it all? Truly Xiao didn't know what all she would give. One can only know if they knew her full story. This is the story of her past and of what has made her who she is now. This is the story of the monster with her own demons buried inside. All of this simply to answer...if you could go back and change it all...would you?
Let's start this story in the beginning, and by that I mean in the true beginning. Xaio's parents were both Gerodowr in origin. Their race was a very hard to find one, rather simply maybe this was some sort of cosmic representation due to the power they can generate. For they have a very unique ability called time skipping. This ability has made them a rather unique find indeed. Xaio's parents were those of travelers, scouring from planet to planet, working for those of the highest bidder. It was a lifestyle common to most of their race. Time has passed as it seemed before her mother had realized she was expecting. It was on this notice that they decided, whichever planet they would be on when it was time would determine the name of their child. Even as they traveled from Namek to the Planet Kold, they came upon Earth. It was on this planet that Xiao was born, it was on this planet that the family had decided to finally settle down on.
The name Xiao Lan Xun was decided upon in the sector they chose to live, the name was actually Cantonese in origin. She was very healthy for a young one and as she grew older began to show the distinct traits from her heritage, her skin color staying as its whitish hue. Her hair length and blueish black color having been inherited even by her mother. Her eyes however a bright emerald hue from her father. She looked so much like their child, so happy and care free. So naive of the world around her. She wasn't trained like most warriors at birth, her father had been waiting after all until her time skip could have awoken. Even though she wasn't a fighter truly just yet, she love reading everything she could get her hands on. Something it seemed her mother had been proud that her child had gotten from her. It was such a happy life, with so many happy memories, if only it could have lasted.. All good things though must come to an end some day however..
Seven years, that was how old she was when everything that made her life joyful decided to go to hell. The Galactic Patrol had been close to Earth preparing for a flash jump to the main base and drop off a very dangerous prisoner. This prisoner was an older fire Elemi who sought a world merely in flames. The fools didn't may have placed Ki suppressors upon them but they didn't bother suppressing his elementals. He was easily able to melt his way out as he took a pod to Earth. Of course the Patrol had noticed but the escapee wasn't a fool, he left a distraction alright, in the form of roasting the very home of an innocent family, Xiao's home. At this very moment everything of the life Xiao knew, just went downhill. Who was the one to decide this? Maybe it was fate itself. Whoever thought it was one day was going to pay dearly for the mistake it had made.
She had been dreaming of the next day, school, friends, everything she was excited to do like any normal day. It wasn't until she was awoken by the sound of her own coughing from the smoke that she realized something was wrong. It was then she felt something ever growing of heat on top of her..it was growing and growing until it was painful beyond belief. She was awoken by the very screams of her parents. This pain..this range of emotions she was feeling was what awoke a new feeling inside of her, and then it felt like everything was slowed. Almost in a grayscale she felt everything. Pushing the wooden playing lying on top of her right side. She noticed an unusual ease to it. As she began to move around, she felt as if her whole right, her fingers even from where she had pushed the plate off of, everything felt like an increasing burning never ending. She couldn’t explain the feeling or look truly of everything. It was all just grayscaled. She barely could control her own movement as survival instincts, innate from heritage began to take over. The next thing she knew..she was falling out the window, having jumped. There was simply a sharp pain in her legs as she hit the ground. It only lasted for a bit though..all the pain was fading away..at least..until time began to return to full pace around her. She only got a single glimpse of some form of policemen...the galactic patrollers. Before it was all gone. Everything went to darkness.
Xiao Lan had stayed silent most days after she had woke up in the Galactic Patrol HQ, she had been in a medical ward. She still felt the effects of being drugged up to stop the pain, but she couldn’t help but feel a slight tingle in her right side, and it felt so hard to keep her right eye opened. Only later after a nurse had arrived in would she ask the inevitable question, only to get the inevitable tears from her left eye. She had tears from her right eyes yes, but the pain from them was too much. Tears would come more and more, even as she began to realize why her right side had hurt so much and why her head hurt so much. The fire from the wooden pallet had left her burned completely.
Multiple skin grafts had to have been completed for her due to such excessive injuries, one that due to having been away from a medical machine for so long had to manually be healed. The reason for her headaches as well was due to the burn having been so bad, apparently affecting her frontal lobe, another surgery requiring an experimental Neural Grafting. Luckily technology has advanced enough for a synthetic counterpart to the damaged areas. When all the surgeries were completed only then did she begin to finally gain the ability of movement. Such an ability one typically never thought of practical use. Only then when she reached her left hand to try and grasp the side of the bed did she notice something different. She couldn’t actually feel it like normal, all she felt were varying vibrations. As her eye opened to look at her fingers did she notice they were gone. They had been burned black by the fire and were far too dangerous to leave on. They had been replaced with these...prosthetics attached to her hand. She wanted to cry, but there were no more tears to spare. All she could even see in the mirror, wasn’t a person any longer..just a monster..

Roleplay Example:
A monster was what she was, she never could forget it throughout her new training. That's right..her training, she had volunteered to enlist in the Galactic Patrol. She had done so only a day after she was finally done with all of the surgeries. It hadn't been easy, they didn't want her joining simply to pursue revenge. Even though they would have loved to have someone with her abilities, they worried too much about her reasoning. They could see why purely in the looks she gave to nothingness, even with her right side bandaged up...they could feel her starring seemingly at the same goal. She truly shouldn't have been able to join. There was no way really any official way she should have been allowed. Her legacy for the future could have ended right there...if it hadn't been for a single man, one who had known her father when he worked back as a mercenary. It was a Konatisian, the elves of space.
A week later she had begun receiving holo alerts for her to arrive at block C dash thirty-nine dormitory A. The smile that formed on her face that she had been accepted...truly had been the most joy she had since the night before the fire. When she had first arrived at her dormitory she had looked into the data logs to see if she was going to have a roommate, she was a bit sad to see she didn't, and yet glad at the same time. She knew she couldn't hide her appearance forever, but she also wanted to meet more around her that were her own age. On her bunk she saw her Galactic Patrol Cadet Suit and still kept a smile on her face. She just hoped her father would be proud of her. One day she was going to find this fire Elemi..and she was going to make him pay for the pain he had caused her.

As the years grew, her basic education was nearing its finish. However while people had though of her appearence as cool and awesome when she was younger...people still were what they naturally believe, they were cruel. And as the years kept going and going they grew crueler and crueler. No one except the teachers and adults called her by her name anymore. She was being called by the others what she always knew she was. They called her a monster. The whispers always were, about how she looked so much like a monster. It was miserable, those she thought were friends, simply talked behind her back the next day. She wanted to stay hidden for the remainder of her days here. This was only the beginning though, the worst wasn't over yet. It never was, was it?

In class today, they went over the Earth's ancient battles, today was a segment over Greece and Rome. However the moment their teacher said the name of one monster, one of the many rumors of it. It's spelled her doom and yet her future right then and there. The teacher had said that one of the rumors of Medusa was that she was a monster who's face was so hideous, anyone who looked upon her face would be frozen into stone forever. From that day on she was called Medusa...she learned from being called Monster that it wasn't going to ever end. So she decided it was better to embrace it now. She even began having her teachers call her by the nickname instead. She even began to spend time learning more and more about Medusa, how she had actually been a female who was cursed by the Greek gods. Medusa, the legend, may have had her faults, but she still was a powerful creature. If Xiao was going to be called that..then she would gladly show them all.
She was one of the younger official cadets now, frankly she was kind of nervous about it, from what she had heard, they very rarely happen. In fact she was one of the few possibly and the next one most likely wouldn't come for another five or six years even. She didn't want to fail, she failed to unlock her time skip those many years ago before it was too late to save them...she couldn't let failure happen again. People had to understand the meaning of the name Medusa, any failure could easily sully it. This was how she very quickly began to focus everything to passing, she needed to win, the more she won, the closer she got to finding the Elemi one day. The closer she got to her revenge. She was going to reach it one day...that was a promise she was willing to keep to the very end.

Three more years it had been since she had moved on to a leadership school, close combat had been a top priority she had worked in, one she had even aced quite easily. She was aceing at the top of her class but yet, she still couldn't pass the teamwork exercises, she kept leaving her team behind unknowingly by accident. Well not much by accident but more so that they were slowing her down. She made her choices and time came for graduation, she had even been given her official callsign once she had chosen, it had been no trouble picking one...she simply picked the name everyone called her, what many feared her for. Medusa.
Twenty Two
Many years have passed since she had graduated, she mainly went on solo missions as of lately, but the man who helped her get in to the school had an offer for her, one that paid quite a large portion of Zeni. All she had to do, was join his daughter's squad temporarily and keep an eye on her safety. It was the least she could do for the father. After all he had already helped her so much, she could only return the favor for her father's friend...he would have like that after all..
Now you tell me, if you could go back and change everything only to know you can't...would you still go?
Reward Requested: (Zeni)
