John's P.O.V

I opened my eyes and realized I wasn't awake and I was in a dream state. I was back at the cabin where it all began watching myself being dragged across the floor and thrown on the bed. After I came to I saw Damien enter the room with a zombie-like expression, pass all over his face while he held an unconscious Lizzy.

Before I could react to anything I saw a flash of light that was so bright enough it could blind a person. Once the light dimmed I saw a guard burn me with a cigarette before I passed out from the pain. then that same bright light returned as I blinked when I heard.

" John, Can you hear me? Deaks, come on mate open your eyes" A voice called out from beyond.

I watched myself open my eyes and cry out and agony as I tried to lift my head.

" Take it easy Deaky you're alright" Then I realized it was Lizzy.

" Liz?".

" Hey relax".

"What happened?".

"They burned you with cigarettes".

Then the cycle contented a few more times before I heard.

" John, Can you hear me?................... John open your eyes for me please" Another voice called out from beyond.

So I did just that to find Dr. Pierce towering over me.

" Maggie?" I blinked slowly.

" Hello Deaky".

"What's going on?".

" The word is that you guys came here via bus from Brighton".

" Brighton, What was I doing down there?".

" I don't know but, you have someone who's been dying to see you. Do you feel up for a visit?".

I nodded and at that moment Lizzy entered the room.

" Thank god you're alive".

" Hey, Liz ".

" I thought you were dead".

"Really?"

" I'll let you two chat. Welcome back Deaky".

" Thanks, Maggie".

And with that, Dr. Pierce left the room as Lizzy sat in a chair beside me.

" How are you feeling?".

" Tired and want to go home".

" I know but the doctors want to monitor you four for at least a few hours".

"Okay".

" Is there anything that I can get you?".

" Food?".

" Alright I'm going to see what they can give you. I'll be right back honey".

So Lizzy did just that before returning with a small packet of crackers and some ginger ale. after a few hours of being poked and prodded by the doctors, we were finally discharged and we all went straight to bed.

As Roger and I got into bed, we decided to put some soft music on to assist us in falling asleep.

"Everywhere are freaks and fairies
Dykes and fairies, tell me, where is sanity?
Tax the rich, feed the poor
'Til there are no rich no more
I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you
Population keeps on breeding
Nation bleeding, still more feeding, economy
Life is funny, the skies are sunny
Bees make honey, who needs money? No, not poor me
I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you
Oh, yeah
World pollution, there's no solution
Institution, electrocution
Just black and white, rich or poor
They and us, stop the war
I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you".

" Roger?".

"Hummm?".

" Memories of everything are coming back to me".

"Wha?".

And so with that, I told him everything that I remembered as Dreams by Fleetwood Mac came on the radio.

"Now here you go again
You say you want your freedom
Well, who am I to keep you down?
It's only right that you should
Play the way you feel it
But listen carefully to the sound
Of your loneliness

Like a heartbeat... drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering what you had
And what you lost...
And what you had...
And what you lost

Thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
Say... Women... they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean... you'll know, you'll know

Now here I go again, I see the crystal visions
I keep my visions to myself
It's only me
Who wants to wrap around your dreams and...
Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?
Dreams of loneliness...

Like a heartbeat... drives you mad...
In the stillness of remembering what you had...
And what you lost...
And what you had...
And what you lost

Thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
Women they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean, you'll know

Oh, thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
Say women they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean, you'll know, you'll know
You will know, you'll know"........,......
