"That my friend, is a splicer, you know now not to cross their paths, poor Johnny got the worst of it. Now would you kindly pick up that service radio and step outside the bathysphere?" said the rough voice through the , without warning, everything blurred. I fell straight back, and slammed my head against the lever, which definitely knocked me out.
All of a sudden I was sitting on an operating table. I lifted my hands up to see the hands of an infant, with odd electrical wires stuck on them with white suction cup-like devices. I was about to jump off when I heard two voices enter the room.
"God, Jack is still here. Guess the surgery worked. I don't know why Andrew had to run off like that, I've heard that last night he followed Jasmine back to her changing room and- well, it's fair enough to say we won't be seeing her in Eve's Garden anymore…" a female voice rang through the opening door, as two people walked as two people walked though.
One was a toned, but slender man, wearing a large white coat, and a mask over his face. In one hand he carried a strange needle filled with a blue solution. The other was a tall, exhausted looking woman, who was wearing a navy blue suit and skirt. She was carrying a small cigarette in her right hand, and motioning while she spoke with her left. Both were walking steadily towards the operating table I was seated at, but neither were really looking at me. Seizing the moment to figure out where I was, I glanced around quickly at my surroundings. It looked as though I was in some sort of a laboratory, and surgery room in one. There was a musty tinge to all the walls and corners, and papers were scattered across tables, which was very abundant, places all along the sides of the room. I also noticed there were many more of the white suction cup buds hanging from a medical device on a pole, adjacent to the operating table, and also plenty stuck onto various parts of my body. I also heard a strange thumping outside, as if an elephant was walking by, and cowered back, trying to peer at it from out the small glass hole in the doors across from me- but to no avail. I was extremely confused, and had no idea where I was, or if what I was seeing was real at all.
Just then, the two people approached me, and I could clearly see the nametag on the male, it read "", I would've thought nothing of it, but at that moment I heard the rough voice from the elevator again, now much louder and troubled… "Ace? Y'all right there? Heard something weird, like you took a nasty fall 'er something… Ace?"
I tried to respond, but kept wavering through the two worlds, as if my mind was unsure of my body, and my mouth was nonexistent. Suddenly the second world blanked out as lowered the syringe with the blue liquid into my arm. I was finally able to be in one world at once, and good thing to, because at that moment another splicer started walking towards my laying body on the floor of the elevator, with his hook-hands, burning red, scraping each other menacingly.
