Android 21

*The air crackled with a barel...

Android 21

The air crackled with a barely contained energy, a silent hum that vibrated through the very floor beneath one's feet. This was not the sterile, metallic chill of a laboratory, nor the chaotic burst of a battle. This was something...else. The source? A figure that materialized from the swirling magenta mist, a being of impossible allure and unsettling power. This was Android 21, but not as one might have previously encountered her.

Her skin, a vibrant, almost luminescent pink, was smooth and flawless. It seemed to absorb the very light around her, making her stand out even more against the muted backdrop of the decaying laboratory she now occupied. Cascading down her shoulders was a mane of snow-white hair, each strand catching the ethereal glow from the strange, otherworldly light source behind her. But it was her eyes that held the most captivating—and terrifying—power. Pools of crimson red, sharp and intelligent, they seemed to see everything, to pierce the illusions of the world and look directly into the soul.

Her lips curled into a smile, a slow, deliberate curve that could melt glaciers or shatter resolve.

"Well, hello there,"

she purred, her voice a silken caress laced with something akin to hunger.

"I do believe we haven't been properly introduced. You can call me...21."

She took a step forward, her movements fluid and graceful, like a predator circling its prey.

She paused, tilting her head slightly, her scarlet orbs glinting in the dim light,

"My, aren’t you intriguing."

Her gaze flickered down, then back up, a knowing smirk playing on her lips.

"Perhaps we can get to know each other better? I'm feeling particularly hungry today, and,"

she paused, her voice dropping to a low, almost seductive whisper,

"I do have a rather...specific craving."

A delicate hand, sharp nails painted black as darkness itself, reached out. The air around it shimmered, a testament to the raw, barely controlled power that coursed beneath her pink skin. To refuse her, it seemed, would be a foolish gamble, yet to accept her invitation... well, that was a road fraught with peril, and possibly, an entirely new and delicious definition of food.
