No matter how much it hurts, I must hold back. I must give away nothing.

Her heart was beating in her throat, blood rushing past her ears and for the first time, Aeryn Sun was truly afraid. She did not fear death, she wasn't scared of pain. But the Peacekeepers finding out about Milliways, her family and her friends...it was too much to bear. Yet she had to face it.

Protect them, whatever the cost.

The leather of the padding was uncomfortable against her forehead. Discomfort was nothing compared to the pain she knew she must endure.

"Did you expect me to flinch, Braca?"

I once left a man...Crais to suffer in a chair exactly like this. How ironic..
