Thump
Dee’s heart piece beat so hard she knew it would burst. The pounding in her chest started three weeks ago when she waved goodbye to Ms. River’s, and got worse as she watched her shuttle disappear into the atmosphere. Now Dee laid on Ms. Rivers laboratory floor, alone but for the starving or dead snakes, spiders, lizards and rodents she left in cages. The tube in her forearm link pushed fluid to her hinged fingers at rapid speed. She moaned at a particularly hard thrum, and felt one of her ribs splinter in her hand.
