I was as confused as ever. “What...
process...?”

The pictures returned again in pieces. The
mass of chaos, the red-eyed freaks that were terrorizing the
people, my witnessing the possible downfall of the city...
Danielle. “Where... where is my... sister? Her name is... Danielle.
She's 13, long brown hair, brown eyes... deaf.”

Both of their heads sank a little.

“We don't know,” Gracie sighed. “You were
found alone.”

I felt my eyes watering, confronted with
the possibility that she was hurt too. Then again, maybe she was
still alive, if I could get back home somehow and check on her.

Dr. Scott approached me and I managed to
focus on him, but I was once again shocked as my attention focused
on his eyes. The whites weren't white, but a clouded dark gray,
just like the lunatics, and the irises glowed brightly – except
they weren't red, they were sky blue.

I think he picked up that I was looking at
him funny. “I understand,” he assured me, “everything will be
explained to you once you're rested and recovering.” He undid my
wrist restraints, followed by the feet, while Gracie took off the
wires from my head and chest. He looked up and gave me an odd look,
like he was both relieved and concerned at the same time, which
doesn't seem possible.

“Gracie will help you to your bed, and I
will come check on you in a bit,” he said.

She helped me turn to the side and sit up.
When I looked at her, she had the same weird eyes that Dr. Scott
did.

“I promise you will know everything that's
going on,” Dr. Scott repeated. “Welcome back to humanity.”
