Things are pretty strange when she opens her eyes.
Not just because of what she sees through her blurry vision, but because it's frankly kind of a surprise that she's opening her eyes at all, because she's pretty sure she got shot and she's likewise pretty sure she was dying basically immediately after that.
So maybe she's dead? And there really is some sort of afterlife?
... An afterlife with softly beeping machinery and muted lights overhead?
Sharon blinks and shifts, moving her shoulders against the surface she's lying on. Her feet feel cool – and she can feel her feet, which is a welcome surprise – and she looks down to see her bare toes wiggling. "Huh," she says, her voice rough and groggy. "That's weird."
