[QUOTE="Deva, post: 1156579, member: 13573"] The light is so bright it hurt her eyes even with them closed and the familiar sound of a heart monitor echoes rhythmically in her ear. Even with her eyes shut she feels the sensors taped to her skin in various places and the I.V. piercing the back of her hand. She screams inwardly at the realization that she had been the one chosen for that days experiments in McDermotts lab. Sarah swallows hard, her mouth so dry it feels like it's stuffed with cotton. Her tongue darts out, licking her dry and split lips, and lifts her hand to her forehead. That was the first difference she noticed, no restraints on her arms, and as she slowly opened her squinting eyes she notices the second, no Doctors hovering around taking notes. The third difference iss the freshly washed blonde hair that falls across her eyes when she shifts. The Biogen people had never bothered to properly wash the dye from her hair before. As she struggles back to counsiousness, she hears Aaron's voice in the same room talking and then sobbing. Her heart leaps at the thought that something was happening yet again to the poor kid, the machine monitoring her heart rhythm sounding the sudden increase in its palpitations. She grits her teeth, tearing at the wires attached to her chest and forhead, the heart machine suddenly going into a flatline alarm. She pulls out the I.V. needle and sits up, sending a new wave of pain through her abdomen and bringing the escape from the Labs, their flight from Colorado Springs, and fight at the ranch rushing back to her memory. Gasping for breath, the pain making it nearly impossible for her to move, her panic at being once again in the hands of Biogen giving her strength to swing her legs from under the covers and onto the cold floor beneath the bed. Her body shakes in protest as she tries to stand but, lacking the physical strength, and she collapses to the tiled floor. The tears are on her cheeks before she realizes she's crying, the overwhelming sense of helplessnes too much for her. She manages to push herself against the wall next to her bed, pulling her knees up to her chest in an attempt to relieve the pain lacing through her abdomen, the alarm of the heart monitor masking her choked sobs.
