I woke in a hospital bed, the sterile smell alerting me to that even before I opened my eyes. Everything hurt. I was exhausted.
A plump nurse in a starched white apron bustled in.
"Oh good, you finally woke up," she said, and smiled. Then she put a tray of food on my lap.
I realized I was starving, and my stomach started to rumble.
The nurse laughed.
"Enjoy!" she said, and she left again.
The hospital food looked gross, gray, and mushy, but I was hungry. I felt like I could eat a cow. Raw.
The food was gone in minutes, and I started getting antsy. I stood up, realizing I desperately needed the bathroom-
Or tried to stand up. I hadn't even noticed the restraints until then.
I tugged at them, to no avail.
"Crap," I said, under my breath. I was scanning the room, looking for something sharp to cut the straps with, when I noticed the camera.
A little lens and a flashing red light was all that alerted me, and I was lucky to have noticed it at all.
The nurse came back in, practically running, and shot something into my arm.
Anesthesia.
I resisted as long as I could, but my eyes just grew heavier and heavier. I fought the drug, thrashing, but it was pointless.
I was trapped in a hospital, and couldn't do anything about it. I was too exhausted to go crazy again and summon fire, and had nothing to cut the restraints with. I was like a caged animal, desperately straining to get free. The familiar black wave washed over me, and I shut my eyes to the world.
