During July of the year 2024, series of ill-timed events break her strong will and forces her to succumb to her depression. Clarisse attempts suicide and almost succeeds, but her parents, convinced by Scott, saved her by pulling some strings. Secret government agents barely saved her by injecting her with a serum, but it was just in its experimental stages. It boosts her healing abilities, helping her get over the combination of medicines she took, but it came with a few side effects. What happens when she discovers the effect of the serum?
