FACE. SIX. LIGHT. Care. Home. Switch.

Kaisa gasped as she sat up on the floor, suddenly waking from her nightmare. She coughed as the cold air filled her lungs and looked around her cell in panic. What had happened? Was that another one of her dreams? Was it real? Was anything real? She didn't know and she didn't like not knowing.
It was still somewhat light. Why wasn't it the middle of the night? How long has she been asleep?
'Okay... Okay, deep breaths. You can do it... You can do it, for fuck's sake, you are Nea goddamn Heinonen! Calm down...' She thought to herself, chanting the words "calm down" over and over again until the words have lost all their meanings and took deep breaths.
Inhale... hold... exhale. Repeat.
Inhale... hold... exhale. Repeat.
Inhale... hold... exhale. Repeat.
One more time.
Inhale... hold... exhale.
As she slowly calmed down, she noticed James was watching her. He looked worried and confused, maybe even more than her.
James.
James.
Jamie.
Jamsie.
Safe.
She was safe. It took her a moment to realize that, but after the initial shock, she sighed in relief. Safe. Or... at least the closest thing to it. She can never be too safe in this place, especially with what she just went through.
Or did she go through it?
She wasn't sure what was real and what was a dream.
