Britney finally regained consciousness. Her head throbbed with a dull ache, a constant reminder of the blow she had received.

"Um…" She realized she was back in the hospital again. This time, it wasn't the result of a brawl with her fellow inmates at the mental asylum; it was something far more sinister.
