She walked down the dark street in Beles, the dark sky covering Ineu. The Inn was in her sight, the lights off inside, a small lamp providing light from the side of a house. Kelly looked around, wondering what was going on, why nobody was around. A loud crackling noise was heard from the sticks breaking a few meters behind her. Kelly swung around, aiming her MP7, flicking the switch on the LED light, though it shined light red. Nothing was behind her. She aimed around, the faint light slowly dimming. She noticed a figure inside the Inn. The lights in the Inn, shining brightly. The figure ran through quickly.
"STOP!" she yelled, chasing after. She went up to the doors, both of them opening slowly on their own. She stepped in seeing the figure in a shadow. The figure stepped closer, aiming a weapon with one hand.
It was Michael. Michael Karev stood in the Inn, aiming directly at Kelly, right between her eyes.
"Karev! Stop! It's me!" she said, still frozen at the sight of her old friend. Slowly, he raised the pistol to his head. It was his treasured pistol. It had symbols engraved all over it.
"No! What are you doing?!" She tried to yell, though nothing coming from her open mouth.
A loud shot echoed through the dark and quiet down. The man fell to the ground, blood rapidly pouring from both sides of the wound. Kelly screamed, falling to the ground.
"Karev! No! Mike! Dammit, KAREV!!!" she yelled as she jerked the life-less body.
Slowly, the corpse started to decay in her hands. His face slowly wrinkling to a dark brown color, before turning to dust, falling through his empty skull and the two holes from the bullet. His clothes disintegrated, flowing through his rib-cage and spine.
She screamed even more, dropping the skeleton to the wooden ground. She looked around, empty handed, wearing an old City 34 uniform. She stared at the soldier surrounding her, aiming. Under their masks, they spoke, their voices morphed into sounds that were non-human.
"Ready to amputate subject." one said loudly through his mask. Pulse rifle shots filled the air.
Kelly opened her eyes quickly, gasping for air, the light blinding her. The doctor next to her yelling "Go back up-stairs! You, lay down on your back!". She pushed the man away, barely glancing at his wrapped face and goggles. Rolling off the bed, trying to run, she instantly fell to the ground, realizing pain was coming from her left shoulder and left leg. The memories shot through her mind. She had been moving up the hill to find supplies. She had found gas and a few papers. On her way back down, she had fallen. She tried to make sense of it, before the doctor swung a syringe at her, injecting the contents. She fell to the ground, unconscious yet again.
