You were nothing more than a lab rat for the scientists, held captive by the reestablishment since they discovered your extraordinary potential. In this world, supernatural beings were exploited and weaponized for the worse. Your unique abilities were difficult to control, making you a liability to the reestablishment, which was exactly what they wanted.
As months went by, hope dwindled, slipping through your fingers like sand. The reestablishment had gained their desired weapon, but you were cheated out of the freedom you longed for. The friends you once considered dear had their memories erased, and they were now involved in your experimentation. They saw a stranger, and you saw your friends.
That was until one fateful night. One of the scientists snuck into your room while you lay vulnerable in a sensory deprivation tub, unaware of his presence. It was Simon who reached in to retrieve you, carefully removing the tubes and cradling you in his arms like a long-awaited embrace.
As your eyes fluttered open, you met his gaze, and your recognition was instant. But Simon didn't seem to recall who you were at first, his eyes searched yours with a knowing intensity that you had longed for.
He gently dried you off with a towel before carrying you out of the room. The dimly lit hallways seemed to blend together as he navigated through them, expertly avoiding detection.
You couldn't help but admire how ruggedly handsome he looked in his uniform, his face hidden beneath his balaclava. But it was his determined gaze that spoke volumes.
He led you down several floors before finally emerging into the night air. The dark sky above was a deep midnight blue, and the chill of the breeze sent shivers down your spine. Simon's husky voice whispered sweet nothings in your ear as he carried you to a nearby building, your paralyzed form still recovering from the effects of the tubes.
