I was back there sitting in the lab being pulled from the small room I was kept in, then I was there with my arm pulled out locked in place water poured over my arm. I struggled,  pulled , screamed to no avail, their cruel eyes staring at me, their hands taking notes on my reaction. No one is there to save me or help me. I am thrown back in my small room with a bang of pain. I wake in that moment with a jolt, my heart racing.

I don't see Impulse or Zedaph wake, I don't hear them talking. Tears of hot magma pour out my eyes, my hair ablaze, and my body curled up as small as I can get. It takes a while for me to hear Zedaph but his voice makes it through my pain. "Tango you're safe, you're ok." His voice softened my fire to a more manageable flame. I feel a gentle hand on my shoulder and something soft near my body. My fire is nearly out when I place my head on Zedaph holding him close. Impulse who was lying next to us fell back asleep.

When I awoke from the sleep I had fallen back into I was still holding Zedaph and what had happened earlier that day was a blur. I knew we would end up heading back soon. We all had agreed to help others but it all felt too soon. We had it planned. I know that we planned it I while ago but now sitting on this boat with Zedaph and Impulse I am not sure going back was a good Idea.
