## Biography

### Early life

Sakura was a project started by Valentine when he was a kid and actually almost finished... until, seeing as he was a kid, he simply forgot to fill in her knowledge chip leaving her to figure out society on her own. Or at least that would be the case if he hadn't forgotten about her *completely* and left her in his garage to rust. Eventually the D.E.A. found her sleeping during their raid on Valentine's parent's house. They took her in for examination for the F.B.I.

### Sakura: Array 1

After the raid on Valentine's parent's house Sakura was shipped off to Area 51 for examination. She was put in a giant glass tube with two guards and two scientists running tests on her. Her only belongings being the clothes on her body and the ankle monitor on her leg. Eventually she ends up breaking out of the glass tube and critically injuring both of the guards. She spared the scientists because if there was one thing she remembered from living with Valentine, it was the original half life game, and specifically the quote "Don't shoot, i'm with the science team!" She doesn't remember anything about Valentine so this comes to her as a flash of images that gives her a head-splitting headache from trying to remember too much too suddenly. She keeps running throughout the facility wiping out guards as she goes. She ran into a couple aliens and a couple creepypasta characters along the way. She breaks into the break room and puts a fork in the microwave and throws it at a group of guards as a make-shift bomb. Despite the fact that that's not how that works, it explodes, knocking both the guards unconscious. before she leaves she sees the F.B.I. Symbol and gets yet another flash of fuzzy images and a head-splitting headache. She finds a cool bag and decides to take it with her. She also finds a pair of retractable Lapis claws that instantly embed themselves into her knuckles causing her to scream in pain even though she's a robot. Eventually she wipes out almost all the guards and right as she's about to reach the exit.... Her ankle monitor explodes and sends her flying through the air. Eventually she crashes through the roof and into the interview desk of a near by restaurant called Burg-fil-o. She gets the job instantly due to the fact that they are severely understaffed because no-one wants to work there and the pay sucks. She goes to the cashier desk and meets her co-worker, Wik. They talk and Wik attempts to teach Sakura the art of cooking with magic. She doesn't get it and after dealing with some unruly customers, their shift is over. Sakura tells Wik her predicament but gets cut off by a fight between two cats, one of the two having a missing leg. She tries to break the fight up and decides to adopt the cat with the missing leg and names him "Yardstick". "Because he has three feet!" is the reasoning she gave Wik when he asked her. Wik tells Sakura that he'll show her around so she can get a better understanding of where she is and says that he "Knows a place" where they can unwind and drives Sakura to the Paje's club. Sakura leaves Yardstick in the car and they go in and Sakura meets Casey causing her to realize that she might be lesbian. She orders a mock-tail and Wik orders a "Spellbinder's special". Casey asks for her number and Sakura, attempting to think on the fly, makes up a discord tag and prays that it isn't taken by the time she gets a computer. Wik drives home drunk and forgetting that Sakura is with him and crashes his car into the ground floor of the apartment he lives in. Miraculously, they both survive and Sakura goes in Wik's apartment with him. Wik sees Sakura and remembers that she and Yardstick still don't have anywhere to stay yet and lets her crash on the couch for the night.
