Prime Captive

The Arkady, Sol System.

With a flash behind her eyes and a rush of Essentia, Amanda appeared in her stateroom aboard the Arkady. Like the rest of the ship, the décor was clean with lots of sweeping lines, white furnishings, and pine accents.

Saying goodbye to her Coven, her friends, family, and lover was tough. She was about to embark on what could be a long and dangerous mission and travel far away from Earth, and as much as she knew it had to be done, the thought of it was undeniably terrifying.

And yet, she had embarked on similar daunting missions before, many of them alone with no backup, and she knew she was more than capable of putting that fear behind her and doing what needed to be done.

Amanda walked around the room, opening her wardrobe and drawers, checking her things were where they needed to be before she caught sight of herself in one of the mirrors. She was still wearing her ripped jeans, sneakers, and a camisole top. Clothes she was more than happy to wear, but she knew from previous experience that she would stand out as different beyond Earth and Enceladus.

The fashions of the Nexus and the Dynasties were quite different to that of Earth, with fitted smart clothing, often with protective properties, illuminated sections and digital systems inbuilt being the norm, especially amongst the Magi. On her previous sojourns into deep space, she had picked up a few items of clothing and by now, had a small collection of outfits that she liked to wear. It had been a while, though, and she still had a soft spot for the first outfit she’d ever bought and worn when she had first visited Axia.

She reached for it and held it in front of her in the mirror before she smiled to herself. It would be the perfect thing.

She quickly stripped out of her clothes and pulled on the fitted catsuit with its intelligent fabric that acted as a kind of armour and looked very futuristic to Amanda. The bodysuit was white with a couple of shades of grey here and there and once it was on, suddenly shrunk and adjusted to her shape, while several lights flared into life. It was a perfect fit. She then pulled on a pair of self-adjusting boots that also shrunk to fit her perfectly. The boots also had an adjustable heel, allowing her to wear them as flats, wedges, or stilettos, making them perfect for both day-to-day wear and combat. She finished off by pulling on a half skirt that fell from her waist to the floor, but was open at the front from hip bone to hip bone.

She liked that it flared about around her legs and gave her a more mystical look than a catsuit alone.

She kept her bright red hair loose and flicked it over her shoulders as she checked herself in the mirror one last time before feeling satisfied.

Well, she thought, there’s no reason to delay this any further.
