Authors Notes: Sara and Greg learn to deal with the events after the explosion.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Sara was walking through the lab; when she realised she was walking past the site of the explosion.

Sara gazed at the new sheet of glass, its glossy surface masking previous events.

She placed her hand on the cool surface, and felt pain through her hand.

And that's when the memories came flooding back……

*

………It wasn't the general force; even though it was enough to knock her down. It was the, well, the shock.

You don't expect something like that to happen. You expect warning.

And it hit her hard. The knowledge. The new knowledge.

She'd always joked about science being the safest part of her life.

Well; it was safer than relationships, work, and…did she even have anything else in her life?

Everything was work based.

Her friends were her colleagues.

Science was a love, but also an essential aspect to her job.

…Then there was Greg. Seeing him lying on the door…she assumed he was dead; the force of the impact was overwhelming for her, she could only imagine what it must have been like for him; in the line of full impact.

He was the last thing she saw.

Before her eyes involuntarily closed.

She tried to fight the force…

…She didn't want to close her eyes…

…She thought she was going to die too…

"Sara?"

She jumped at the voice, and opened her eyes; she hasn't been aware she'd shut them.

She turned, slightly disorientated toward the direction of the voice.

It was Greg.

His face suddenly filled with concern; as he saw her vacant expression, he moved closer, and touched her arm.

"Hmm?" she said, looking up at him, not quite knowing what had just happened.

"How often do you get them?" He questioned, as Sara looked round at the walls, she felt like she'd just awoke from a dream.

"What?" She said, suddenly realising where she was; that she'd just 'screened out,' realising that it was affecting her more than she'd been willing to admit…

"The flashbacks." He answered in monotone; staring knowledgeably at her.
