Y/N P.O.V

Darkness. That's all I see. It's been a long time since I was put in cryo. I was supposed to lose my consciousness but alas, something has failed. I've been all alone for days, weeks, months even. I don't really know. Time means nothing to me anymore. The only thing I can have is Hope. One day, they'll get me out of here. Right?

Strange. I hear... a voice. I can't make out what they're saying. They finally came to get me? Or maybe our enemies? To be honest I'd take any of the two, even if one could lead to destruction. Call me selfish but I want to live once more, not stay like this.

???:"...consciousness..."

That voice... I recognise it. My beloved assistant. Amiya. Is she here? Then Rhodes Island did launch an operation to save me. Why? I thought they could handle things on their own. Maybe I overestimated them. They need me. She needs me.

Amiya:"Circualtion resumed... vitals stabilised... cardioplegia solution injected. Body temperature low. Administrating Hexamethasone 20 c.c, now."

As soon as she injected that dose I could finally hear my breathing. The familiar beeping of an electrocardiogram. My heart beats at a normal rate. I'm stable.

Amiya:"Get the hemostat! Conditions stable... beginning resection... be careful of VFib."

She has followed my steps. Amiya has always been very smart. Oh, how proud you make me kid.

My heart starts to beat very rapidly.

Amiya:"...Sorry... For making you suffer again."

It's okay. Anything's better than this torture.

After she said those words my vision was regained. I could see her for a second. She asked for my hand and I managed to hold hers. However, my mind was exhausted for being awake for so long. After making a small movement I closed my eyes and truly fell unconscious. It felt like a dream...

Just barely a minute later I was awake. They injected me with something. Adrenaline perhaps. I opened my eyes to see a Medic. It's been so long I thought all this time it was Amiya trying to reanimate me when in reality it was someone else.

Medic:"Are you awake?"

I nodded, making her widen her eyes in response. She turned around with happiness and looked at Amiya who was looking through a window, making sure we're safe. You've grown so much...

 You've grown so much
