A blue sun ... A warm day...
"What?"
Multicolored jungles ... His guts dissolving...
"These are not mine. No. they are not my memories."
Her cruel smile. I see her smiling to all of us...
"Control yourself."
These weren't his memories. These were from others. Others who were now part of him. But not. Because he, was him. And he was no longer him.
Where was he going with all this ramble?
"Sam."
The pink woman with pink hair. She smells funny. She doesn't smell like the others.
"Sam."
"Anyway, pink is a stupid colour. She looks like a doll ..."
Slap!
He said that out loud?
... pain ...
The pain helped him to focus again. The pink woman was in his field of vision. She put her hands on his shoulders.
She's is going to get herself sticky. Heh!
"Sam, she knows where we are."
¿She?
"Who?"
"The Queen Mother."
They remembered the Queen Mother. They remembered ...
... Pain ...
Those were bad news for both of them.
"How?"
"Our mental connection remains, somehow. She can't see where I'm going but she knows that I'm here. Within the reach of her other daughters."
A metal container with a single syringe filled with a clear liquid. Another smile. A kinder one.
In a titanic effort, Sam rose above the other voices. Now it was just Sam again, for now. And Sam had a way to leave this place.
"We have to get out of here."
"She will find us."
"Listen: There is a safe house. If we go there we will be safe, I promise you.
"She is furious, Sam." She looks terrified."If she finds out where we're going ..."
Jet black hair engulfed in flames ...
"If we stay here, we are at her mercy. Trust me, I've seen what she has in store for all of us."
Yes they all had seen the glorious future that awaited humanity. Bullshit. You two could be part of it. Like so many others ...
No ... stop. Right.Now!
The voices fell silent, for now.
Now with the clear head, was the time to take action.
