章節 961: Voices in the darkness

~ Los Angeles, undisclosed location ~

Sarah is drifting in and out of consciousness. Sometimes she hears indistinct sounds, sometimes there is someone's voice, but most of the time it's just her thoughts.

'Shit! Why is my hand hurting this much!'

She tried to move, cry, inhale… nothing worked. She can't move a muscle, but somehow, she is hearing some faint sounds… a man talking to himself. Or maybe on the phone…

"Yes, boss… this specialist is no good… tomorrow another one will arrive to look at her arm… yes, boss I understand… permanent nerve damage is not acceptable…"

Man's voice faded away and she was back to the silence in the darkness.

'Look at someone's arm? Permanent nerve damage?'

Sarah remembered that her arm is aching… oh, not anymore. Now it's numb. Her whole body is numb…

'Who was that person? Who is the boss he spoke to?'… and her thoughts were lost in the darkness.
