She was standing.

In a white room.

The floor was icy cold to touch and her feet pricked with pain from what could only be the beginning of frostbite.

She frantically looked around for some way to get out.

But there were no doors that she could detect.

"Hello? Hello?!" She whispered, her voice tight.

"Hello sweetie." The woman crooned, her voice indifferent.
