Water Under The Bridge (The Broken Beginning)

[Girly_Power_Pro 23]

   As Dhalia opened her eyes with reluctance, the night sky came into focus. The moon to her right shining concentrated moonlight over a grassy plain she only vaguely remembered. A sudden chill ran down her aching body, laden with bruises and cuts. A low, painful moan came from somewhere off in the distance to her left. Using all of her remaining strength mustered in one quick movement, she turned her neck and a sharp, hot pain shot behind her left eye knocking every drop of air out of her overworked lungs. 
   

As her air supply came spilling back in painful gasps that shook her body and forced her to feel every inflicted injury, a horrific site came into focus. "No! This isn't real." Dhalia hoarsely whispered in disbelief through her extremely parched lips that felt as though they hadn't touched water in weeks. 
 

Struggling to her knees in a grotesque movement that nearly snatched her consciousness. Dhalia was allowed a clear view of the wreckage...Tanks lay scattered in a silent aura of a wrongful deathbed to whomever sought a position in the war that took place only hours before. Turrets ripped from their hulls lay diligently in the dry grass throwing haunting shadows across the land.  Dust and tank debris settled over the Mammoths, Hornets, Hunters....what Dhalia once built with her friends....Friends!
 

A painful memory surfaced from the vague depths beyond her pain giving her a boost of adrenaline that made her forget the pain.....forget the war.  Fighting through the rubble and debris she searched for any life still holding on.  Hot, searing tears rolled down her sweaty cheeks and fell onto her traditional cargo pants, usually filled with tools when a busy day at the garage ensued, blue T-shirt now ripped and filling with blood from a deep gash just above her left breast , and boots covered with mud and oil from a leaking tank with twins still intact. Her tank...
 

  Ignoring the overwhelming feeling of sleep, she continued her search passing many dead enemies and abandoned tanks. "Maybe they survived and are in a safe house, But left me behind..." Dhalia thought out loud. She collapsed at the thought. "Don't be so foolish." came a low, pained voice filled with confidence. Too much for her taste. She recognized the voice before he stopped speaking. Turning around and not believing her eyes, Now crying harder. "Jesse!" His usual cocky smile returned for a moment. "Hey Dhali, missed me?"
