Officer James Pov:

Darkness. A suffocating shroud squeezed the air from my lungs, mirroring the terror clawing at my insides.

His unconscious form was a testament to my newfound resolve. The doctors returning for their next torture met the same fate, collapsing like marionettes with their strings cut.
