Still, Part 4

"I hope this works."

"The inhabitants of the planet have had trouble with some of their plants. So, if that's what's afflicted The Colonel, the medicine they gave us should do the trick."

I don't feel any different yet... except that I really hate being hooked up to all this equipment.

But happy thoughts, kids. Happy thoughts.

Beeping. I hear beeping!

"Doctor?"

"It's his heart, General. It's beating!"

Score! Now, let's try the eyes. Come on, guys, you want to open; I know you do!

"He is awakening."

Everything's blurry, but hey, the eyes are open.

Doc leans over me. "Colonel?"

I smile.

"Welcome back."

I never left.
