Wow!
This is very true to life, well if you accept the concept :) I love her self analysis of what's right for her mixed in with the flash backs of past/other life. A real winner here Lilith and as one of my fav movie lines goes, I look forward to more with "Anticipation!".
As always, I try to stay
As always, I try to stay within the bounds of realism, if at all possible, given the nature of the story. It's much easier to suspend disbelief if you don't have to toss everything out the window in order to do so. Thanks GE!

A good story start and it definitely leaves open a lot of questions regarding Gemma. Jan
I'm trying to make this more
I'm trying to make this more of a supernatural mystery, but not overtly so. Just enough to pose a boat load of questions and reveal the answers over the next few chapters, then get into the meat of the story. Thank Jan!

I had pierced nipples.
Now, exactly why I did that, I can't say. It hurt like hell to get them in. They always hurt at even the slightest jaring. and one day one of them just fell out. It didn't take long for me to cut the other one out. I loved having them, and imagined having a chain between them and the ring in my nose.
Come on girls, you remember my kinky days!
A year after that and I am in what everyone thinks is a Nun's habit.
Had ta get it out of my system, though I still wish I could have them.

Yess!
I did this just a few years ago, what fun! I'd still have them if I could get them to stay in!

I pierced my own nipples
I pierced my own nipples back when m'lady and I first got together. Had them for 17 years and just recently took them out. The "pop-up timer" effect just hurt like hell and I couldn't take it anymore. But I could still put them back in, the holes are still there.

In an odd little MOOOOOOOD!
I am sick of all the stupid holidays, somberness, and frowns! So, I just thot that perhaps a little mirth and supidity were in order, and this with out all the messy illness and headaches of illicit drugs. Geeee, I can get enough of the licit ones to cause real trouble anyway. LOL

DEFINITELY one to watch!

So OD'd yet no tracks
So if the tracks on the arms are gone then why didn't the naval and nipple holes heal up also?

IMHO it's all Dad's fault
There was a strong hint that daddy made a deal with *the powers that be* to do something to save his little girl.
Don't know if he promised his soul or to be a better person, dedicate his life to .... You know the spiel.
Looks to me her soul/spirit was too far gone, not recoverable, in hell or heaven or wherever or refused to go back, after all her life had been painful the last year or so ... so they brought the body back but with the soul and memories of a man. Was he another *resident* of the morgue and thus a convenient replacement?
Got a hint or two there are a few of her memories remaining for the new soul to use, maybe muscle memories of makeup and such? but not much of them left. And given the illustration our authoress used, will her body change into a female Hellboy or is that only when she needs her power. as she is she appears normal except for the odd stuff about how the needle marks are gone but not the piercings,. Seems like there are either more than one *player in the game* or the power involved has a trickster way of doing things.
And what of the people who led her into the drugs and wild life? Is the new her in danger? Was her heroin OD accidental. a suicide, a murder? And does danger trigger her powers though there are hints she is already changing as the new her thought her bra and other clothes seemed too tight. But maybe that's just the man in that soul speaking?
Nine, nice start. Another winner.

These are a lot of great
These are a lot of great reasons and deductions, but only one of them will eventually be correct. You really need to write your own CRU John. I think it would be great! I looked at a couple and said, "Damn, that would have been a better idea. Gah!"
And yes, there is much more behind her death than a simple OD.

Great Premise
I love the beginning to this chapter, and I love the amnesia with someone else's memories popping up. It's obvious that Gemma is no longer Gemma. But who is she? And what does Hellgirl have to do with the story? Where is Hellgirl? Arrgggg!!
You've got me hooked.
Thanks for the story.

Hellgirl won't be popping up
Hellgirl won't be popping up for a bit. This is going to be a longer story, akin to Terra. (meaning much back story before the change occurs)
Thanks Terry!

So there's going to be another chapter of Terra? Did I just miss it then?
I meant it was written in
I meant it was written in the same style of Terra, where there is a large amount of exposition at the beginning instead of just jumping right into the superhero portions like Jade's and Thorgirl's stories.
I haven't discounted doing another Terra story, but I want to finish Thorgirl's and Hellgirl's first, if possible. Hopefully I'll have Thorgirl's done by tomorrow and then I'll work on a couple more of Hellgirl's afterward.

horn-y, obviously. Helluva start. Lots of questions about who this person is
(I was thinking t.s., parents not going for it contributing to reckless behavior/suicide;
and now she's somehow genetically female, some revelation about her plumbing,
but it's starting to look less and less like this is what's happening.
If she's a demon from hell do ya think her and Little Nicky
could hook up? ...... Naaaawww! Quillian tho' maybe.)

An excellent first chapter
An excellent first chapter Lilith!
The set-up reminds me a little of the most recent Hawkgirl with the aspect of one soul taking occupation of a body dead from suicide, though there is a very different feel to your story overall. There is so much the new Gemma has to take on trust right now lacking either set of memories and I have to wonder if that's going to be a serious weakness as the story progresses if someone close by is responsible for the original Gemma's death. There were also some tantalising hints thrown in about how long the new Gemma was away and what she used to do.
I'm looking forward to watching this story unfold.

I assume you're talking
I assume you're talking about DC's Hawkgirl, if not them I'm missing a story somewhere. Regretfully, I don't follow her, so it's a coincidence. Yeah, Gemma is skating by right now, hoping for the best, and trying to act as what she feels as normal. I'm afraid that's not going to last long though. Thanks!

Yes
Yes, it's the current DC Hawkgirl. The other reason I mentioned it was the Gemma and Kendra (Hawkgirl) share the same surname - Saunders. I'd wondered if you'd retconned in an element of that character as a result but as you didn't it just goes to show great minds think alike!
I actually think your way is better in terms of dealing with the amnesia and making it more enjoyable from the viewpoint of creating tension in the story, so point for Lilith over Geoff Johns / James Robinson.

Wow... yeah, that is a
Wow... yeah, that is a little too much for a coincidence. Maybe I've read about her previously in research for the CRU. i wouldn't put it past me. I've researched probably a hundred or so characters in the last couple of months, but I really don't remember any details about her. I don't even know if that hawk head thing is a part of her head or is a mask. Additionally, I wrote a good portion of this months ago and have been sitting on it since.

Very intriguing!
I'm really curious as to where this is going. There's definitively something wrong with her coming back to life. She's not the same person, and I'm dying to know what's going on.
Thanks for posting this! :-)

To answer your first question-
Lilith, the only slab I have woken up on was a carton of beer!
Interesting chapter, obviously sombody male in Gemma's body.
Looks like Mum and Dad have a chance at a new daughter relationship as the old one seemed like it had died a long time ago?
Looking forward to the next two which I'm about to read.
Thank you
