The straps hurt. My hands hurt and the strange lights are blinding me. I wish they would turn them off. I hope Hal got away. Even if I'm stuck here.
I hope he finds his brother. It will give him closure if he knows where he is and knows he's safe.
Hold on a minute. Why am I thinking of Hal's brother at a time like this? I've never met him. Is he really worth all the trouble that Tom is going through. He better. Coz' I better not die for a kid I don't even know.
Oh crap! Someone's coming. I've gotta' move, I've gotta' get out of here.
I don't wanna' become one of those things. I don't want a slug on my back. I don't want a weird spider alien controlling me. I will not let it happen.
The door is opening and I'm stuck. Shit! I'm gonna' die here and I didn't even say goodbye. I wanted to say goodbye to those that mattered. Particularly Hal.
I love Hal and I will not let them take that away from me. I will bury it so deep inside myself that they won't be able to destroy it. I love Hal Mason. I love Hal Mason. I love Hal Mason.
Oh God! I don't want to die! I don't want to die!
I can feel one of those slimy things crawling up my back, Oh Jesus it's slimy! Ah. My back. It's connecting to me. It's becoming me.
No! I won't let you. NO! MY NAME IS KAREN NADLER AND I WON'T LET YOU GODDAMN ALIENS KILL ME!
