WHO: Elle Driver (open)
WHERE: Stumbling around the halls
WHAT: WTF MY EYE
She'd managed to stop screaming a few minutes ago, summoning an entire career's worth of icy assassin's discipline and coolness to bring herself down to merely hyperventilating interspersed with the occasional sob. All in all, Elle was handling blindness fairly well.
She gasped, and her hand flew up to her face for the tenth time in as many minutes to check that her one remaining eye was still there. That horrible feeling that it was gone- that it had been snatched from its socket like the other one- kept coming back! And even when she confirmed that she still had her eye, it remained sightless, she remained blind.
Worse than all those things though, was the sound. The slithering sound that had chased her out of her room after her eyesight disappeared, the sound that seemed to be getting closer even now. It sounded an awful lot like a snake. And Elle had an idea what kind of snake it was. Oh yes she did.
