A rippling headache that felt like it was about to tear her head into two splits woke the sleeping beauty in ungodly hours before midnight. She tried getting up but felt like her whole body was heavy and her head felt heavier with each attempt to move and the headache sliced her skull like it was burrowing a whole in her head. She winced in pain and she felt like crying however the tears wouldn't come in fear of worsting the pain in her head.
She tried opening her eyes but her eyelids were heavy and painful, just every part of her body was painful. After a few minutes of what seemed forever of trying to open her eyelids at least, she finally managed to open her eyes and a faint light coming from the moon through shone on the white bed sheet just above her. She tried looking around and she realized she couldn't recognize the room.
Fear enveloped her and her heart started pounding but soon drowned by the pounding headache that split her a new one between her eyes through her forehead. She tried to breathe through her mouth but felt something constricting and that's when she realized she had a breathing aid over her mouth and she started breathing through her nose more smoothly.
The heart monitor attached to her picked up her fast beating heart and spiked when she got scared, alerting the nurse on duty who rushed in to check on her. The nurse checked her vitals, ECG and everything and let out a sigh of relief that for the first time since this patient got admitted she was awake with no visible complications. She noticed that the patient was having trouble breathing with the breathing aid, and removed it off her for her to breathe on her own.
The nurse did a series of other checks on her, checking her pupils, knee-jerk reaction and other basic checks. She then said as she noticed the confusion on the patient's face, "Hi, I'm Marylin, I'm your night nurse. You are in a research laboratory, in a hospital wing, recovering. Do you remember anything that happened before you got here?"
The beautiful woman was stumped at the question, what does she remember? She tried thinking and nothing could surface. She felt her mind trying to grasp the memories which just slipped away the moment she tried to catch them. She kept searching and trying hard to catch the slippery memories but just couldn't. Then she realized, she didn't even know her own name. She winced in pain as another waive of throbbing pain sliced through her head.
While trying to calm her headache, the nurse had already called the doctor for thorough check up. They gave her a strong shot of something then suddenly everything went quiet and foggy again... Even the pain started fading, as she slipped into darkness.
When she had shut down, the doctor got his phone out to call someone. "How is she?" Claw's magnetic voice sounded as soon as the call was connected. The doctor gave a detailed report and explained that they had to sedate her because she looked to be in unbearable pain so they haven't been able to find out how much of what happened she remembers.
As soon as the call ended, Claw finished off his meeting with the seller and got into his helicopter and flew across the ocean to his nearby island. As it landed, he held a stupid grin on his face.
