Isn't it said that once someone has hit rock bottom, they don't wake up again?
Then why did she?
Isn't it also said that people who've been through major trauma wake up with no memory at all?
Then why did she remember everything?
Every bit of pain, every scar, all that hatred and regret tangled in blood and dust-none of it faded. Like a film playing in slow motion, it ripped her apart frame by frame. There was no dodging it, no escape.
Why didn't she just die?
"Fiona."
That voice-strange, yet painfully familiar. Fiona blinked, then shut her eyes tight again.
A single tear slipped from the corner of her eye, silently falling.
Though she was conscious, her body was still way too messed up to move. The damage had left her barely able to lift a finger.
