Despite the amount of medication the doctors had been pumping her full of, she managed to start to wake up without them even realizing it. When a nurse came into the room that she had been placed in, even though it was highly monitored with the guards and even the doctors and staff of the Medical Center. She was slightly surprised to see the girl there with her eyes completely wide open.

“Where am I?” the girl managed to ask, and she looked at the nurse, who was about ready to drop the tray of medications. She was clearly surprised and even shocked to the point that she was embarrassed.

“You need to hold on one moment. I need to get one of the doctors in here. You should not be awake right now.” center sign she placed the tray down and then quickly ran out of the room, and then there was another high pitch sound that echoed through the area. She didn't know what the noise was. There was nothing there before and then a highpitched squeak that seemed to beep. She looked around the room, and she didn't see anything that looked familiar. Though she didn't know anything about anything. It was rather frustrating as she looked around the room and could see things that she knew she had seen before but not here.

An older man walked into the room and surprised her as well because he was clearly shocked that she was awake. There was a lot that was going on in the hallway as other people seemed to be coming in to take a look at her. The man was in a white lab coat, and she assumed that that must be the doctor that the woman had come in and said that she was going to get. She had to think that she had to trust her doctor. Though she didn't know why. She also didn't know what a doctor was. There was absolutely nothing that she could put her finger down on. She could remember words, but she didn't know what they meant. She didn't really know what anything meant. She could feel something in her that didn't feel right. It was like everything was on fire. She had to think that fire might hurt her. Though she wasn't quite sure as she was trying to remember what fire was.

“How are you feeling?” the older man asked as he walked a little bit closer, trying to school his expression. He was trying to remain completely neutral; however, the fact that the girl had woke up at all while the medication that she had been on for the pain and to keep is relatively sedated had not worked. It was almost as amazing as the fact she was alert and didn’t seem to be all that upset either.

“It hurts,” she said as she looked at the man.

“That's slightly understandable considering the number of injuries that you have. Can you tell me your name?” the doctor asked as he looked at her, and then she looked at him completely blank.

“I don't know that,” she stated as she looked at him, and he began to shake his head, knowing that he had called it well in advance. They have been monitoring her brain activity well. She had been sedated, and they had also done after a few tests to continue monitoring the brain bleeds and the bruising we're starting to fade, but the pressure was still there. He honestly didn't know if she would ever be able to recover completely.

“I see. Well, I guess that I should begin at where you were found, and hopefully, something might jog your memory. As of right now, I think that your amnesia is temporary. You obviously can speak, so it's not as bad as I thought. However, we might not be able to get down to the end of the situation until you can remember who you are, and what you were doing out here.” The doctor said as he looked at her.

 He pulled up a chair and then began to go over everything that was done and everything that they were going to have to do. She looked around the room and then realized that she was in some sort of hospital room even though it looked like she was the only patient that they had. She was becoming slightly overwhelmed with all the information, and though she could process some of it, a lot of it just sounded like mumbled words that shouldn't be put together. He looked up to one of the nurses and the guard standing at the door. He knew that she was starting to become a little more anxious because she didn't understand everything that he was saying to her even though he was trying to keep it as simple as possible.

 “Somebody get Mr. Danielson down here. I told him that as soon as she woke up, he would be notified.” and he said that one of the guards went over to the phone and started making a call probably to one of the energy labs that was deeper within the mountain. He turned back to her, “Mr. Danielson is   the owner of this entire facility. He is the reason why you are in this medical facility as well. He wanted to be updated on your condition given the fact of our room's remote location. He was concerned with you being close to the lab.”

“I don't understand what you're   saying,” she said as she looked at the doctor.

“What he is saying is that because of our location, you should have never been able to find the base. Now I guess you have to answer a few questions along the lines of why you are here in the first place.” Benton said as he walked into the room and looked over the girl. He hadn't seen her and a few days. He wasn't expecting to   have to look at her so soon. The doctors had completely suggested that they were going to keep her sedated for up to a week. However, she was sitting in bed, and she was alert. It wasn't until he looked at her in saw her eyes that he knew he might   be in trouble.

Her eyes were the most beautiful he had ever seen in all of his life.
