Hey guys! Science Fiction is my favorite genre, and I started writing this story a while ago, so I thought I would just go ahead and finish it! Thanks so much for reading this, I hope you guys like it!!

She had the most perfect face, the smoothest skin, the warmest cry. I touched her soft neck with my cold hand. I had to do this. I had to. I had no choice. I turned to face the wall of inks, dozens of colors to choose from, all meaning different things.

    No one knew, but I had made a special one. I wasn't supposed to. I could be killed for doing this.

    I carefully poured the gold ink into the barrel of the needle. I hated doing this, especially when I was forced to. I have refused to at some times. But this world needed to change. And I intended to be the one who started the change. The spark.

    I walked toward the child, uncovered the needle, and hesitated. Would it work?

    I had to wait until she went to sleep. Period.

    About twenty minutes later, she was sound asleep. I have to do this I thought. I decided to do it as fast as possible. Maybe she would stay asleep. Just maybe.

    I gently pressed the point of the needle against the side of her neck. Nothing. I looked around, even though I knew no one was there.

    I pressed the needle a little harder. I saw goosebumps had rose to the surface of her skin. Her eyes opened and she started to cry.

    I started on the letters. C. One down, seven to go. She started to squirm, her cry getting louder.

    "Shhhh. It's okay", I said in the most calming voice I had. But it only made it worse. I started on the next letters. H. A. She squirmed even more, shaking her head from side to side. I grabbed her head and forced it to the side where I could finish inking. M. She cried louder, slowly turning into a scream. P. Her legs were kicking my stomach, her scream piercing my ears. Almost done. I. O. One more letter. N.

    I backed away quickly, putting everything away. It was eleven o'clock.

    I needed to get some sleep. I turned off the light, leaving the crying newborn in the hospital.

    She was going to be a Champion.

WOW! I never knew this prologue was this short until I put it on here and read it through! I hope you guys liked it and will move on to the next part!
