Aurora: Fire in the Sky Page #3

---

What should I tell them? That I have

a love affair in the source's head?

The rules are clear -

I shouldn't interact with her.

And they've attached

this bureaucratic watchdog...

I'd ruin it.

You're ruining it anyway.

No, I'm giving enough info,

so it doesn't skew

the research results.

And they don't suspect anything?

There should be clues -

they read your brain patterns.

They can't know

what's really going on.

Besides they're busy

with the analysis.

You're going to get in trouble.

You've worked too hard to ruin

everything with such shenanigans.

I know what I'm doing.

My period's started.

What are you doing?

Lukas! Stop it.

Which part of no don't you understand?

What's wrong with you?

Stop it.

Stop it.

What are you doing! Stop it!

Bite me.

Stronger.

Stronger.

Stronger.

Stronger!

Stronger!

Stronger!

- Where's the intensive care unit?

- Third floor.

Hello, I'm from

the research group.

Could I get the file for the

patient in Ward number 23?

Wait, I'll call the doctor.

You could wait for us to go out.

Read it... please.

Sit down. Drink some beer.

I've had a hard day too.

You have eczema, by the way.

It's nothing.

I have a friend who's a dermatologist,

you should see him.

Read it.

Aurora - not common name.

Imagine if you found a guy.

Please, don't digress.

OK, fine.

It's dark in here

and this copy...

Ever tried to read a

doctor's handwriting?

What don't you get?

Take it easy. I'll read it.

In fact you could be right.

She was drowning and her brain was

deprived of oxygen for some time.

But there's no serious

cerebral damage.

Nothing explains why she's

in a coma and moreover,

why she's blocked from

any outside stimuli.

Inside she doesn't respond as I do.

She hears, sees,

but doesn't feel anything...

since the beginning...

You know as much as I do,

there's no one answer.

Might be psychological reasons?

Like what?

After a psychological trauma,

the brain tends to

block out painful memories.

Psychological pain is

like physical pain.

While cutting off her memories,

she could've cut off links

to all physical sensation.

Is there a way to help her,

theoretically speaking?

Theoretically

We could force the

synaptic connection

to restore the link with

the blocked area.

But there are no

specific drugs for that.

Maybe apply something

from common practice...

Thiopental.

Can you get it?

I thought we were

speaking theoretically.

Practically.

Interesting, this drug is used to put

people into medically induced comas.

But with proper doses it helps to

recall

repressed memory,

a truth serum.

They haven't been tried on

comatose patients.

Her organism must be very fragile.
