The knock startled her. The man on the other side of the door startled her even more.
"Achilles..."
A hundred emotions seemed to hit her at once. A thousand questions raced through her mind. So much she had wanted to say, wanted to ask, but the words just evaporated in her mouth, leaving her speechless. Tears began to well in her blue eyes--eyes that still held much of that innocence, though there was a sadness in them now as well. Yes, she had been tainted, but she wasn't lost.
