Part 5-
Eve then took Tara to the Re-assimilation Lab so that the witch wouldn't have to go through a lengthy processing time. It would be in this lab that with the information inputted into a specific programming about the timeframe from which Tara had died to the point in which Spike and Angel brought her back would be feed into her mind, in the form of memories.
Sitting her down into a dentist like chair and leaning it back, the technician began to put electrodes all around her skull. They lined Tara's hairline, across her forehead/around and over her ears/and finally down around the nape of her neck. After they finished that, they gave her a sleep-inducing agent and she was out like a light.
She lay there for like two hours and her subconscious mind was field with knowledge of what had occurred during her absence. The programming was designed to help those who were missing certain timeframes. Usually it was meant for people with amnesia, rarely was it ever needed for people returning from the dead-as it was an even rare occasion for someone to return from the dead. However, the scientist had put together this specific upgrade for Tara, so that when she awoke the knowledge put into her mind would make the transition easier. It was a very painful process, however, it was only successful in people deep in their subconscious, which meant they had to be asleep. Which meant they'd feel no pain under the sleep-inducing agent that would be used.
After finally reviving her, Harmony escorted her into another assimilation lab where she'd be retrofitted with the knowledge of all kinds of law but especially art-copyright law.
Tara was a little more aware of what was going on now; unfortunately she still was trying to reconcile herself to being back. So she remained silent. Harmony stayed by her side the whole time, stroking her hair and holding her hand.
She went through the same process Gunn had and it was painful. Thankful for her supernatural strength and durability, Harmony never screamed in pain-never pulled her hand away, just took it like a champion.
It was after this long ordeal, that a sweaty Tara was taken to, yet, another lab. This time she'd go under hypnosis to take through the days, the weeks, the months, and even the long years of learning to be back upon this earth-alive and missing being in Heaven, wanting to return, being dangerous to the point of suicidal. All within half-an-hour, leaving her feeling like she belonged, refreshed, and accepting of her destiny.
Coming out of the hypnosis, Tara arose from her relaxed position on a leather couch. She just went to her office, straight into her bathroom and stripped off her old life's clothes and stepped into the hot steamy shower. Stepping out of the shower she examined her naked figure and noticed she was in the same shape she was when she died in Willow's arms and that all the same old scars were there, plus two new ones from one wound. On her chest, right over her beating heart, she saw the small rounded-scabbed over wound that was turning into a scar. She turned around and with her hair wrapped up into a towel she noticed the entry wound just to the right of her left shoulder blade. She gave a contented sigh with her face expressing her sorrow. She actually remembered the look of pain on Willow's face right before she fell dead.
She got dried and dressed again in new black pants with matching jacket over a white blouse and she slipped on some leather black boots (without heals, of course). She exited her living space and office looking for Spike.
