In the black depths of oblivion, there was a sudden orange spark. mFrom far away, voices seemed to echo and reverberate like waves crashing off of rocks. The spark reappeared, widened into a line, then faded away again. Jensen frowned in his sleep, trying to focus on the failing display. Gradually he opened his eyes, and immediately knew something was out of place. His vision seemed oddly lopsided, as though he still had his left eye shut, and it was grainy and indistinct. There was no sign of his HUD. Someone was standing over him, looking away, but while he could hear their voice, it was distorted and incomprehensible. He tried to reach out and touch their ankle to get their attention, but his arm didn't respond. Scowling, he tried to sit, to prop himself up, to do anything, but none of his limbs worked.
"What the hell?"He mumbled fuzzily, still dull from his long unconsciousness.
