A few moments later, I realized that full movement had been restored to my body. I immediately sat up and removed the tubes from my left hand. I looked back at where my head had been resting. There was a small needle piercing through the pillow. Standing up, I saw it had been connected to an intravenous drip with a cloudy blue substance.
It came loose when they pushed the bed. This is my opportunity.
I looked around the spacious room that had been my prison.
Flexing my legs, I was confident of my full strength. I noticed my clothes on the hanger in the corner and put them on.
Walking towards the door, it automatically flew open, leading me to a fluorescent tunnel. My eyes winced in the light. In front of me was an expansive view of the habitat. I was near the top of one of the pyramids.
How am I going to save Tabitha and the others?
I tried to think back to what the Emperor had said, and remembered him stating I’d have to make some sort of decision. It was a hunch, but they must be close. He wanted me to physically see them.
But I must be quick in case he recovers.
