This flashback takes place on Earth. More specifically NASA. NASA stands for The National Aeronautics and Space Administration. NASA is an independent agency of the U.S. federal government on Earth responsible for the civil space program, aeronautics research, and space research. Kira was born in a small town in the US, more specifically, Hillsboro, Ohio. She was born to two parents who were dirt poor and unable to afford anything.


    The parents were on the streets in the small town asking for change as the woman held baby Kira in her arms. Kira’s mom had brown hair and wore brown, stained and dirty rags. Kira’s father had blond hair that was dulled and covered in dirt, as well as his clothes.


    “Please, I have a baby!” said the woman as someone walking by crushed their sandwich they found in the trash. This was their life. After turning 3, Kira also began to pitch into the begging. It was one day when NASA found them.


    “Hello parents,” said a NASA scientist. “I’m Moroe McGrundy. I can see your financial state is quite poor. I have an offer for you.”


    Moroe was middle-aged and had grey hair, round glasses and a white trench coat with the NASA logo on it. He wore some fancy black clothes under.


    “An offer.” asks Kira’s mom. “Like what?”


    “Well, alright.” he said. “If you give us your daughter, we will give you 5 million dollars.”


    “5 million?” asks Kira’s mom as she looks at her daughter. “That could save us.”


    “But mom…” said Kira. Kira’s mom walked up to Kira and spoke.


    “Do what the man in the white lab coat says, okay.” she said. Kira had no choice but to nod.


    “So do we have a deal?” asks Moroe.


    “Yes.” says Kira’s mom as she receives the money. Moroe walks off with Kira.


    …


    Kira is brought inside of a Nasa space station. This was the place where humans conducted research on astrology and also where they launched rockets into space for space voyaging. Kira was confused as she was taken to a rocket.

    “Where’s my mommy.” said Kira as she held Moroe’s hand tight.


    “Your mommy will be joining us soon.” Moroe lied as he brought her to a small rocket. The rocket was trapezoid shaped and about a metre wide in every dimension, apart from height, which was two metres. It was white and had the NASA logo as well as blue highlights around the door and window that was facing just across from the door. Moroe kicked her inside and locked the rocket. Inside was a monkey and a dog.


    “Prepare for takeoff.” he said.


    “HEY!” yelled Kira as she pounded on the window. “I don’t wanna!”


    She started to cry. The rocket was taking off and everyone in the NASA facility started to back away as the rocket shot into space. The point of shooting the rocket into space with the lifeforms was how cosmic gases interact with life on earth. A pure experiment using Kira, the dog and the monkey as tools. The rocket flew into space as the rocket reached space. It started to float in the depths of space as the rocket immediately blew up. Moroe was saddened, yet disappointed with the results. Instead of saying that the lifeforms were dead and honouring them. NASA kept it silent so that they wouldn’t be exposed for such a bad act. The explosion in space cleared and Kira survived as she was covered in ash. She began to suffocate from lack of oxygen when she blacked out. An alien spaceship flew towards her and picked her up as they saved her.


    …


    Kira wakes up. She was in bed and she looked around. She was inside of a building, surrounded by aliens, these aliens were IL’s that had purple skin, no hair and no eyes. Kira is freaked as she crouches back and hits her head on the bed. An IL alien girl who walked towards her in a white doctor lab coat.


    “Hey. Hey.” she said. “Calm down.”


    “Calm down?” asks Kira. She looked at herself and back at the alien doctor. She had aged 7 years and was now 10. Was she in a coma for 7 years? Kira’s room was a cramped white room with white lights that hurt the eye. The bed was very small, only a metre long and wide. It had a pretty bad mattress, filled with holes. Kira had long messy blonde hair and ragged clothes on.


    “We never thought you’d wake up.” she said.


    “You don’t have eyes. Are you an alien? Is this heaven?”


    “No.” says the alien. “We are Morvie. We don’t have eyes. Our ears make up for it, using echolocation. I can tell where you are. You were in a coma for 7 years, a coma is where you are locked in somewhat of a long slumber. I’m V.”


    “V?” asks Kira. “I’m Kira. What happened?”


    “It was 7 years ago.” said V, “Our people were on a tour and discovered you out of one of the human test ships. You barely survived.”


    Kira listened more as she came closer.


    “Those humans. They treated you like a tool.” said V. “For their research.”


    “A tool?” asks Kira.


    “Yeah. Not like an IL.” said V.


    “An Il?” asks Kira.


    “Intelligent Lifeform.” said V. “Like ourselves, humans and many other Il’s that roam the galaxy.”


    There was silence.


    “I will give you some time alone.” says V. She leaves the room. Kira thought for a bit and she thought about how she''d been a tool. Kira had a very competitive personality and thought that she’d treat others the same way she’d been treated on Earth. She didn’t even bother asking to go back to earth because she had forgotten her parents and came to the conclusion that having her beg was also being used as a tool. Kira couldn’t differentiate between being used as a tool and voluntary help.
