I'm sinking deeper with every movement, trying to swim upward. I can't seem to come to the surface for air. No, maybe there isn't a surface. Somethings covering the top of the water. I..I c-can't breathe. My lungs! They're caving into themselves! I c-can't see. It's all going dark.. What's going to become of me? Please, don't let me fade into the darkness!
"We should give up on this experiment. She's figured out too much." A deep voice said.
I can't move my body. I think I'm laid out on something, but I can't feel anything. Are my eyes closed? It's so dark. I can hear some kind of machine and voices, but that's it. Wait! Is something crawling on my head? Maybe it's inside.. I can't tell. Is something draining the life from me?
"NO! She's come so far!" Another voice said. "No one's ever been able to get that far in the test."
"She could be of use to us.." Another person? Is this one female?
"She's a liability!" The first voice said, he sounds familiar. "She could take us down!"
"Then we'll erase the memory, or at least bury it." I'm sure this one's female now. "She'll remember what we've taught her when the time comes.."
"How can you be so sure she wont remember this?" The deep voiced male said. "She's staring right at me!"
Was I really? I can't see him! What's wrong with me? What are they rambling on about!
"Don't worry. I'm already hiding these memories deep inside her subconcious." The second male said. "Besides, her body's shut down. She can't even see you. It's just darkness."
"We should just kill her!" I heard someone coming closer, felt something touch my skin. Something's dripping.. Am I bleeding?!
Suddenly I heard a gun shot. They killed that worried male. The first voice I heard. Why would they do that?
My eyes shoot open as I gasp for air. "That damn dream always comes back." Whispering to nothing but the darkness in the room. It always felt silly to talk to myself, but apparently it was a very normal thing to do.
My hands moved down toward the scar across my neck, working it's way across my chest, right over my heart. I always did that after that dream. "Is it more than just a dream?" I wondered.
I felt a chill work it's way through my body and I shook it off. 'The dream meant nothing.' I told myself. I couldn't help but feel I was lying.
Honestly, I can't remember anything about my past. I just figured that's how it was for everyone. I mean, in this world, there was no telling what The Council didn't have erased. I just figured it was best to not worry about it.
