Beep. Beep. Beep.
Cold.
Not a single bit of warmth. It was freezing and it pricked her skin.
Exhaling a shaky breath that created puffs of white clouds, she tried to ignore the current numbing sensation that threatened to tear her apart. Her vision was blurry, blotches of black appeared all over the place. Head throbbing like someone had been constantly hammering her head that also had her ears ringing.
It took a while for her lagging brain to realize she was laying face down on a hard and cold concrete.
"--Heart rate… stabil…"
It was dark. The place stung of chlorine, burning fumes, a hint of nicotine, but the smell of coppery blood overpowered all of those. Her lungs were burning, scorched. There were blurry movements, black silhouettes dressed in white moving in and out of her vision, talking in low voices, pointing at something on the chart in their hands.
"–Blood pressure, nothing up–"
"–Vital signs?"
"All good."
Sui Yan wondered if it was her they were discussing.
'Of course, they are,' Her subsconscious sneered. 'Such a rare commodity, why not tear and poke around?'
Sui Yan gritted her teeth which only resulted in her pricking the inside of her cheeks, copper immediately flooded inside her mouth.
Fuck.
What did they do? What more did they change?
She shifted a bit, the sound of the chain rattled as she moved. Her shoulders brushed against the tightly wrapped leather collar on her throat and Sui Yan cursed inwardly. She hated feeling the weight of the collar around her neck.
Gloved fingers carded through her silky black hair, startling her so badly that the animal instinct she never knew she had kicked in. She instantly went for the scientist's throat. How dare this human pet her like some house dog?
Muzzled or not, Sui Yan intended to rip his throat and gnawed on it in front of him like a chew toy. However, the shock that ripped through her body reminded her of her position.
The straps on the bridge of her nose and the back of her head seemed to tighten as she was sent into a full blown seizure. In the end, she was reduced into a twitching mass, curled up in a fetal position, and trembled through the aftershocks.
There were murmurs and Sui Yan caught something akin to "not yet" alongside with "need more time" before her world completely blackened.
