Hello? Is…is anybody there? I know you're there…I can hear you breathing. Look, about the whole thing back in the waiting room....I'm really sorry about that. I didn't mean to hit you. I was just so afraid, and you wouldn't answer me and…and…never mind. I'm just sorry about it is all.

I guess you're pissed at me. That's OK. I'd be pissed at me, too if I were you. But even though you're pissed, do you think you could turn on the light? I can't see a thing and I don't like it.

Hey, are you still there? I'd really appreciate it if you'd give me some kind of a sign to let me know you're there.

OW! Oh, Jesus Christ that hurt! What did you do that for? What the hell was that? Where are you? What's going on? Hello? Are you going to answer me? Was that for hitting you earlier? I already said I was sorry, and I meant it!

Look, I really wish you'd turn on the light. I can't find the switch, and this darkness is really starting to screw with my head. If you would just—OW! Oh my God, why did you do it again? That really hurts! Whatever that was, please don't do it again.

I don't understand why you won't turn on the lights. I don't like not being able to see what's happening. It's makes me feel dizzy. Like I'm going to be sick. It's scaring me. This whole thing is really starting to scare the shit out of me. I…I want to know why I'm here. Can't somebody tell me what I'm doing here? Or how I got here? Or…or who I am, even? Please? Somebody?

OW! Stop shocking me! Goddamn it, that one was even worse than the last one. OW! What…are you trying to kill me? Stop doing that! What do you not understand about 'that hurts like a bitch', anyways?

Where is that damn light switch? I'm getting sick of just wandering around not being able to see. If you're going to keep shocking me, it would be nice to give me a fair chance to fight back, don't you think?

YAAHH! Why are you doing this? Leave me alone! ARRGH!

Oh my God. You're trying to kill me. You bastard. That one almost knocked me out. I…I couldn't breathe for a second. It made my lungs just stop…I couldn't move, either. Another of those and I'll die, you asshole! Please, just leave me alone.

NO! I know you're coming closer! Just stay away from me, and don't do that again! NO, NO, NO, NO! I SAID STAY AWAY FROM ME! HELP! SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME! GET ME OUT OF HERE! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD GET ME THE HELL OUT OF HERE RIGHT NOW! YAAAAAAAAAAH!


April 15th. Second test run also quite revealing. Patient appears unable to stand silence. Constantly fills silence with words. Quite interesting indeed. Patient is currently unconscious. Hydration / nutrients to be administered intravenously overnight. Third test shall commence immediately upon patient's awakening.
Author's Notes: Yes, it's short. But fear not! The next chapter will be quite a bit longer, and it will be posted soon (I just need to do a little bit of editing). As always, reviews / constructive critcism are greatly appreciated!

Thanks to Silently Broken, shadowwaker, Speedy-anime-angel, moocow33, and Duelchick901 for reviewing the last chapter!
