HISTORY
To Know Ones Own Past
Anastasia was born in Moscow, Russia. Having been born with an unnatural green hair colour, she was discarded by her parents, for fear of what exactly she was. The baby was picked up by a member of a travelling circus, Ringmaster Leonardo of the Cirque du Cartes, who adopted the abandoned child. Growing up in the circus, Anastasia learnt many tricks and trained her body, gaining the abilities to perform and make people smile.
After a few years, the Circus ran a little dry, sales had dropped. They were owned by the Graziano Mafia, whom demanded a specific amount of the profits every month. Anastasia was loaned to the mafia as a way to pay their debts, where she learned the harsh truth of reality, being trained to kill and other things that a child should not learn. She worked under a woman named Miss Sable, who was not only her tutor but the one who worked out the specifics of her powers, enabling the girl to become more effective at whatever she did.
After every job she would go back to her home at the circus, she would continue to be around her friends and family, not realizing how terrible they felt to let her go to the mafia. She eventually gained the powers of six of her circus-mates, learning to use them to cover for them if they were sick or injured for a show, using her amazing dexterity and charisma to become the circus' star attraction.
Years went by, now a woman, Anastasia had taken the name of Double. She had grown to be a beautiful woman, curvy and ample-chested, extremely proficient at both the lives she lived. It was at this point she had been given a new mission, one she did not want to be a part of, to eradicate the Cirque du Cartes. Double ran as fast as she could to warn her family, but upon reaching the circus, saw that the job had already been done.
Sable stood over Leonardo, her arm shaped like a blade, pointed at his throat. Double ran in, placing herself between the two, pleading to her boss to not kill her father. Shaking her head, the mafia woman took a step back, Double could feel her smiling. She hated this woman, she me-... She loved this woman, she would do anything for her.
As she drove the knife into Leonardo's chest, Double could only think of Sable, how proud she would be of her.
"Take the hat." Sable said, motioning to the dead Ringmaster, her words lacking emotion. "Put it on."
The moment Double put on the top-hat was the moment that Sable's charm was nullified, looking down in shock she heard a voice, the hat was speaking to her. In her head it showed the memories of Leonardo, describing how he felt, giving her away to the mafia... everything. Hedone was it's name, it promised to be there for her, always.
Double fled.
From the circus, from the mafia, from everything.
She came to Millenium City, putting what had happened behind her, going back to her circus roots and performing for people about Westside.
