A/N: Alright, here we go. Yet another silly little ditty for all my wonderful fans out there! Lol. R&R!

Daniel squinted hard against the bright light in his eyes. It seems like it was all over his body, right down to his toe nails, and truth be told, it was. If he had screams, no one would have heard him, nor cared if they had. He was surrounded by white walls except for the device he was currently laying in. The harsh light burned into his skin, making him sweat all over. He slowly flexed his fingers and toes, wiggly them. He thanked whatever God there was that he wasn't claustrophobic as he relaxed more into the machine, letting it do the job that it set out to.

"Why do I do this? It is torture. I seem to be in here more often than not, and I know my body is starting to rebel from it's effects." He sighed. "I guess it is for the greater good in the end." He continued laying there, praying that time would go quickly. It was odd. He had heard that some people fell asleep whilst lying in the glowing coffin-type thing, but he never could. He was always wide awake, at the same time fighting to get away from the light and seeking it. Suddenly, he got an itch, but couldn't reach it. He squirmed against the confines, finally contorting his body and scratching the offending piece of skin. He would never understand why he did this to himself. He should just give up and let it all go. But that was the easy way out, and he didn't want to go that route. No, he would fight, not give up.

As Daniel heard the soft click and the lights go off, he lifted the top half of the tanning bed and sighed. He deeply inhaled the cool air around him as he got dressed.

"Someday, I will be able to get tan. Then they will see!"

A/N: As per usual, short but sweet. Did anyone guess where he was before the end? Obviously he was SUPPOSEDLY in the sarcophagus. Hehe. I am sooo evil sometimes. R&R!!!
