What happened to me?

I'm trying to remember, but only bits and pieces come to me.

*Running into a clone of myself in the forest.*

*Logan and I making love.*

*A sharp pain in my chest.*

*Logan holding me and crying.*

*I have a need to tell him that I love him, but I can't get the
words out.*

*Total darkness.*

And then I wake up here.

Manticore.

In the hands of monsters.

I can feel the stitches down my chest.

They would only crack my chest for one reason.

I was dead and they tried to revive me.

But why am I alive?

Then that psycho bitch's words echo through my mind.

"He was quite a man, you're brother, Zack. He must've loved you
very much to make this sacrifice."

Zack.

Sacrifice.

Noooooo.

He couldn't have.

But I know it's only something Zack would do.

And now I owe it to him to fight.

I will not let them do to me what they did to Brin.

I will be strong.

For both of us.
