" I have come to realize that when I cannot move, I've gone as deep as I can go."
Mercy Jane fought through the nausea long enough to look in the face in the mirror and say the words.
When she couldn't take it anymore, she wretched into the toilet, and put her face to the cool tile on the unfamiliar bathroom floor. She didn't care if it was clean; it just felt good at the moment.
She went back, and couldn't tell if it was memory, or travel.
Mercy Jane Carrington Elder was time traveling through the space and time of her descendants.

Shadows of the Forsaken
Ever since she could remember, the experiments had been part of her life. As a child, they were harmless-just puzzles and strange potions given to her by the woman she called Mother. Back then, she believed it was all a game, a way to make her smarter, stronger. But as she grew, the tests changed. They became invasive. Painful. Each experiment carved new scars into her skin and left her mind tangled in unanswered questions. The woman she once trusted had become a stranger, her warmth replaced by cold calculation. And then the voices started. A shadow lurked within her, whispering, clawing at the edges of her sanity. She wasn't alone in her own body-something else had been forced inside her. Something ancient. Something hungry. Now, she's free... but for how long? With the past chasing her and the monster inside threatening to take control, she's left with one question: Was she ever meant to survive, or was she only meant to become something else?
Seamless Silver
A young woman (who loves latex a little too much ... if there is such a thing) finds herself confronted with circumstances beyond her control that forcefully alter her life forever. Written 2004-11-28, revised 2018-07-08. This is pretty much my first story, so it's not quite sophisticated. But there's some fun to be found for sure. "And she felt how incredibly relaxed her body was, like she had never been under stress or fear in her whole life. She had been reformatted, reinstalled with a new operating system. What had happened to her, how could it be that she had been transformed into a being of pure free bliss? What had she done, who had decided for that? Could this be just an accident? ... Could she stay like this? Please?" "While the girl came through the mental purge process quite well, I would not call her a simple mind. She just had not filled her heart with fear and hate through her life, so it was not too hard for her to become totally silent inside. I am so damn happy, I can't tell you how much. She agreed to stay, she sees her situation from my point of view. The world is not ready for her, not yet."Complete
