Shattered:
She's been sleeping a long time. Exactly how long, she's not sure.

But her dreams have not been peaceful. She remembers the pale man with the red jewel in his forehead. She remembers the blue and gray man.

She remembers the blood. The slaughter. Slashing and cutting. Hunting and killing.

And, worst of all, she remembers enjoying it.

The glass shards flash. The blood flows. The blue man laughs, a deep, booming laugh...

Abruptly, she sits up, screaming, tears running down her face, her sheets soaked in sweat. She doesn't know where she is. Strangers are all around her.

She looks at the people nearby, and screams again, terrified.

Sylvie tells her the date. "I'm sure we can get a call through to your parents soon."

Melinda blinks.

It's been over 7 months. She was taken in early August.

"...they probably think I'm dead," she mutters. "He... took me 7 months ago."

The reality sinks in, and she begins to cry again.

Sylvie carefully reaches to put one of her upper hands on Melinda's shoulder, if it doesn't seem to be triggering a freakout. She'll just let her let it out for a little.
"We can still contact them as soon as you're ready. And you're going to be welcome to stay here as long as you want, too."

She grasps the hand on her shoulder the way a drowning victim grasps a hand for help.

And she cries for a long while.

And Sylvie'll just stay. When her lower arms feel like they're going to die, she'll get a little closer to sit down right next to Melinda and just hold her hand a while longer.
