The security guards are completely surrounding me. I can't go in any direction and even if I did manage to get away from them, I can't scale the wall. I try searching my mind, finding any way to escape, any hope of leaving this place. My chances were already slim, but now that the guards are on edge I have almost no chance. Two of them grab my arms and I manage to cut one, with him recoiling in pain from the injury. All this earns me, however, is being crowded by two more guards. Every time I manage to throw one off, a few more take their place. After what felt like an eternity of fighting them off, they all used their tasers on me at the same time...

I can't see anything anymore... I can't hear move or feel, either, for that matter. Like all I can do is think. It is the same as those other times, when they shut me down, but this time I'm conscious in a way. If I weren't broken before, surely I am now. I try to keep myself at least entertained for what feels like hours. Time passes and eventually I start counting the seconds, so I can keep reality in check and know exactly how long I've been asleep. If you can even call it that...
