A/N: This chapter will be in Alyssa's POV

I was brought to consciousness briefly as my body was laid down upon a surface. I tried to open my eyes and figure out where I was, but could only open them a crack. My vision was blurry. I could hear people talking near me, but their voices were muffled. This was no doubt due to whatever drug that I had been dosed with still lingering in my system.

"She's awake."

"Not by much

"Silence." 'That's Marcus' "Alyssa, just relax." I could feel his hand resting on my forehead. I tried to move my head away from him.

"Is she stable enough?"

"Yes."

Then I felt something sink into the flesh of my arm and I drifted into a drugged sleep once again.

A/N: sorry this chapter's so short. The next one will be longer, I promise.
