Prompt: #136 - Again the pressure pushes me in the chair, shuts my eyes. I notice the dark red tongues of the flame outside the windows. I'm trying to memorize, fix all the feelings, the peculiarities of this descending, to tell those, who will be conquering space after me. -- Valentina Tereshkova (born March 6, 1937), Russian cosmonaut, aerospace engineer and first woman in space. Orbited the Earth forty-eight times in three days in 1963.
Summary: There are technologies, knowledge, that shouldn’t exist. They sit locked in her head, leaking through her dreams. They’re why she’s being held hostage in cheap hotel rooms and white-walled labs, but Kaname’s coming to the conclusion she might just be the smartest person in the room. And if you’re smart, you don’t play the victim a second longer than you have too. 
Author's Notes: AU after Continuing on My Own. Kaname chooses not to wait to be saved. Written for the femgenficathon
