"don't be frightened," they said, "we have the cure." - Many, many years ago I, Laura Keene, was dying of cancer. I was sixteen-- the doctors told me I had a mere few weeks to live. It was die in a few weeks... Or join in on their new experiment exclusively for human testing. Cryopreservation, they called it. Fancy word, huh? Something about freezing my body or whatever (after I died of course hah) so that in the future, when technology advances and they find the cure for my disease, I could be brought back to life. It's like the living dead. Literally. - It was be dead forever, or be dead for some time. And I chose to live.
