Nina was walking away from the saw, yet another failed attempt. She was 18 years old, and yet looked like 12, that was due to a few things, her family had short genetics, sha had passed by severe malnutrition many times, and too much physical training and the overall state of being enslaved since a young age. She had been a slave since she was 10, her family was sent to secret drug farms and mines on the mountains, which mountains? She didn't know, she knew it was in the US, because earlier in her childhood everyone spoke Spanish, but when she was about 15 a lot of the newcomers spoke in English, how she was brought to the US in secret and how they didn't discover the slavery scheme still eluded her, but thinking of the possibility that the government allowed this was something she didn't dare to think, as she still had hopes. Nina constantly tried to escape, but although she always found a way to break her chains, she was never able to flee, and instead of someone killing her, like they did to most slaves, they brought her in again, no matter how hard she fought, and unfortunately, the reason was very clear, she was cute and they had people who liked these sorts of things, but she would probably never be able to have children anyway, something they knew and used to their advantage, this time they were on a private ship, most specifically, this was the time they should be closer to a city, and although once again she broke the chains, they spotted her, and she didn't dare to jump in the water from this height without removing a bit more of the chain weights first.
Always the little rebel she was, she refused to eat, even if they always force feeded her in the end, this time it was different though, a very serious latino guy in government suit appeared in the slaves food table this time, he saw her struggling against force feeding and said "how old is she?" To which the guy on his right said "just turned eighteen actually" then proceeded to show her authentic documents to him, she heard it all, but they never came to personally see her before they bought *services*.
Nina was sad knowing what came next, but instead of going into a bedroom they just kept walking up ladders, until they reached the ceiling, he went up the stairs first, and she went right after, she heard screaming bellow from the guards "where are them?" Then she saw it, a helicopter, as she was staring flabbergasted at the helicopter, she heard a *click* noise and her weights were removed, the chains once again fell, she looked confused at her wrists and legs until she looked at the man, he was smiling and said "now let's get you out of this place" to which she answered in her teen high pitched voice to him "why?" Her voice was faint, her deep blue eyes had lost their shine, her long black hair clean, her tan skin shining, they had forcefully bathed her again, after opening the helicopter door he said "because I've always wanted to be a superhero" he answered, she knew what those were, they always took her to the library of the ship to showcase her when there were a lot of clients on the ship, and she used that time to read, so she laughed, her laughter contained a lot of stored pain, stress, fear, and many, mixed hard to explain emotions that were a mix of positive and negative emotions, was it mainly relief? Or was it pain? Even herself didn't understand. As she entered the helicopter, she felt like trusting this guy, the worse that could happen was not worse than staying here, even if it was death. But as always, nothing was so easy, and as they were preparing to fly away, someone understood what was happening, and a sniper managed to hit him, didn't kill him outright, but it was clearly fatal in their situation, but he didn't despair or cry, he smiled, and then he gave her a pen drive and said "give this to a boy called Luke Tianno, I saw you reading the books on how helicopters work, you can do this, throw my corpse into the ocean or burn it if possible, I don't want anyone finding it" his eyes were starting to fade as she took off and asked "what is your name?" He smiled and said "Adolfo Tianno, that boy is part of my family, the only one I trust this with, this is my-" his voice got weaker and weaker until he passed out, the world really was unfair, he was a hero but wasn't able to say his last words to the end, she was barely able to fly that thing, many alarm noises hanging on the background like an executioner's axe, and sometimes, things just go wrong, she heard the helicopter stop working, a bullet had hit the wrong place, the helicopter was falling into the water, she hid the pen drive in her mouth out of instinc as that was what they did when they wanted to hide something, they never searched her mouth. They were flying practically on the surface of the water and not that fast either as she didn't know what she was doing, they hit the water, she almost blacked out, she released her belt and left through the window, that had somehow broken, she swimmed to the surface but when she was about to surface, her head hit something and she blacked out.

She woke up in a hospital bed, hope beating strong in her heart, but then she heard a familiar feminine voice and despair filled her heart "you naughty girl almost did it this time, who would have expected a special agent or someone like that to try and rescue YOU, I want you to remember you are worthless, your actions don't mean a thing, and you are just a piece of shit under my heel, you cause more trouble than you're worth, adios little shit" she aimed her gun at Nina's head, the other people around her panicking but ultimately not doing anything, that was the big boss's daughter, she was around the same age as Nina, and for some unknown reason always hated her, but somehow, suddenly everything stopped in time, and a red box appeared on her face as the voice of that man who rescued her said "warning, due to dangerous situation upon integration your time dilation was increased" she tried to wake up, this was the weirdest day of her life, but it was to no avail, as the voice continued speaking.
