Moira Mactaggert stared at the empty white wall in front of her, her brown eyes unfocused as she twisted her fingers in her lap, sitting on the small bed in the windowless room.

This was how the former CIA agent now spent her days, without the action of her work, without people to talk to, without books, with nothing, but none of that mattered, because since she had been hospitalized there, she no longer knew who she was sometimes and the medicines she took made her sleep a lot, when the men in white and the men in suits weren't there tying wires to the helmet they made her use. The only thing she still knew, was that she had become dangerous and unsteady, attacking an agent.

"Moira, it's time..." One of the doctors said in a falsely comforting voice, entering the room, accompanied by two nurses and a man with a cold face and a military haircut, wearing a suit.

"She's so doped I doubt she knows that's her name." Stryker said, folding his arms and staring at the former agent, satisfied.

He'd never liked that woman in the CIA, playing being an agent, and walking with mutants, but now, with all the tests he'd done on her, rummaging through her mind and searching for the memories erased by Charles Xavier, from the time she'd been with him and the others, Moira had become a shadow of whom she used to be.

He didn't just want to find out more about the telepath through her, but to use him now that Emma Stone had escaped, to control the CIA and to have power in government as well.

He had drugged her with an experimental drug that had made her hallucinate, putting in her mind that she had attacked him and gone crazy and then made it look like she had become unsteady after Charles had left her, until, after being hospitalized, she had gone crazy for good.

But when the young woman heard her name, for a moment, she woke up, catching a glimpse of a military uniform and dogtags with her name in her mind.

The brown eyes then stared at Stryker and he could see a flash of defiance for a moment in Moira, irritating him before the nurses connected the wires to her helmet, adjusting the machine and the screen, fastening her wrists to the chair.

"It's hard to find anything, whatever that mutant used to block those memories, it was very strong."

"Damn Xavier..." Stryker murmured.

Moira closed her eyes tightly, feeling as if something was squeezing her brain from both the experiment and the name she had just heard and then she ripped the ropes that held her wrists, her breath racing, and she raised her hands to her mouth, as if she could feel something touching her lips and an image of trees and sun between them appeared in her mind.

"Stop!" She screamed, tired of being dominated by them and used as an experiment.

One of the nurses tried to hold her and she then opened her eyes, pushing him hard, not wanting to be contained and struggling, before Stryker snatched the syringe from the doctors and inject the sedative in her.

"Okay... Let's stop for today." The doctor said as he and the other nurse helped her to lie down in bed and carried the equipment out, followed by Stryker, who was dissatisfied with the lack of results, and whispered before leaving:

"You won't stand in my way. I will rule this country when I find Xavier through you and it will be your end."

He wanted to know everything the mutant had told her, about the mansion, the mutants he knew, what he planned to do, because to Stryker, a telepath like Charles was a threat to him and his plans for the country and the world.

Moira felt everything spin as she stared at the ceiling, feeling the sedative working and she hugged herself, murmuring:

"My name is Moira..." That was all that was left of her memories. This and the information that Stryker wanted to use her to reach someone and rule the world, but it wasn't new, everyone wanted to rule it.
