A young girl of about 23 sat alone, her long hair flowing gently in the cool, misty breeze coming off of the ocean. She sighed as she watched the waves crash against the shore, as if they were angry at the sand and wanted to tear it away. Her name was Jade Lance and her emotions were as dark and gray as the twisting and turning sea. Everything seemed so wrong and hopeless now. She had lost everything that had ever meant anything to her. She sighed and got up to walk away, disappearing into the distant fog. Not too far away, a man, a doctor by the name of Gregory House was working at a hospital. And their two worlds were about to collide and never be the same again.
