Images flickered in my mind.

Men in strange masks.

Needles that were attatched to vials with 2 inch diameters. Silver liquid that looked like molten aluminium swirled in the vials as the advance toward me.

I saw my body, covered in lines and small targets. all in black marker.

I felt the coolness of water surrounding me, but the fire of panic through my veins.

There were men in suits all around me, smiling triumphantly as if they'd done something to be proud of.

I heard the clicking of full champagne glasses, the excited chatter of several older men.

I heard the steady beeping of the EKG monitor, in time with my increasing with my heartbeat.

The lasy thing I remember was searing pain.

A pain like I'd never felt, causing my body to writhe in shock at the attrocity of it.
