War-thirsting Lion
The exact date and birthplace of the ZODIAC's Leo are unknown. It is said, however, that she was born in the middle of the battlefield and that war has followed her ever since.
The story says that the soldiers of an unknown army started hearing the laughter of a baby somewhere in the ruins of a bombarded city. Under a few pieces of rubble, that fortunately piled up in a triangle as they fell, there lay a child, with the corpses of her parents next to her. It was a little girl. The soldiers took her in, only to discover some of her weird behaviours. She would laugh every time there was an explosion, she would mimic the soldiers holding their weapons, and even if someone carrying her was killed, the bullets would fly by her or mines exploded nearby, she would never get hurt in any way, a fate those near her wouldn't share. Whenever they tried to take her out of an active battlezone, a new conflict would start again.
And then, when they finally wanted to evacuate from the area, the missile dropped and killed everyone. Though it was discovered that among the dead there was no corpse of a child.
Two years later, in a different part of the world, there were sightings of a two-year-old girl with a thick mane of hair in the midst of a military conflict. Once again, the events from before would repeat - soldiers would take care of her, only to discover that wherever they went, the enemies would find them. And once they tried to evacuate with her, they all died, and the child went missing again.
For the next few years, that story would repeat until a group of mercenaries representing ZODIAC, with Cancer leading them, would find her. At that age, the little girl was participating in the conflicts on her own, her mysterious skills helping her survive. The ZODIAC would extend its hand towards her as the youngest and the last member of ZODIAC needed to fight during the upcoming Extinction . Her new name was Leo.
