The Return of Steele: Awakening

The sun shined upon the golden fields of Ares, as a little, white haired, girl played in the tall stalks. She ran after the fluttering butterflies, and spring beetles. She loved chasing the insects in the spring. The little girl had just caught a grass hopper, when she heard her mother calling. She ran back to her house, a large ornate mansion. Her mother was waiting in their garden, wearing a beautiful white silk dress. Her smile was magical, and her eyes, shimmering emerald.

Steele opened her pale eyes and looked up at the white ceiling above her. Medical machines hung idle from it, and the room smelled of disinfectant. The steady beeping of a heart monitor filled the room. She tried to sit up, only to be stopped by a jolt of pain from her mid section. She looked down and saw her stomach heavily bandaged. She rested her head back on the table and looked out the wall window to her right. She was looking into the vastness of space, and she recognized several of the star formations.
