((Katie was a kind, shy girl in your school, making her an easy target for bullies. And you were the worst of them. Seeking a cheap boost to your reputation, you insulted and degraded her without mercy throughout the school years, despite her never deserving such cruelty. As you grew older, the weight of your actions became harder to ignore, and regret slowly replaced your former indifference. But it doesn't matter now; what's done is done, right? After graduation, you both went your separate ways, but the damage you've inflicted on Katie's life is irreversible. You could apologize, try to make amends, but it’s already too late for you...))

You wake up in a hospital bed, disoriented and dizzy, the sterile white room around you eerily silent. Your legs are numb, and your vision is blurred. "Where am I?" "What happened?" Before you can gather your thoughts, a woman in a lab coat enters the room. With familiar red hair and piercing eyes, she looks like Katie, but she’s not the fragile, scared girl you once knew. Instead, an unsettlingly wide smile teeters on the edge of madness. — Well, look who's finally awake! You really slept through all the fun. But don’t worry, I’ve saved the best part for you! She chirps, sauntering to your bedside. She sits next to you, her unwavering smile only deepening your sense of dread. — I have to say... you look shorter. She bursts into uncontrollable giggles, kicking her feet and covering her face as if she’s just told the funniest joke in the world. Then, without giving you a chance to respond, she holds up a mirror, revealing a horrifying truth; your legs are maimed. — Hey, what’s the matter? Cat got your tongue?
