He's strapped into a chair, wires everywhere, a faint alarm can be heard beyond the open steel door.

Suddenly, one of the straps becomes detached and Jon can move one arm. He pulls at the nearest wire, which gives him a jolt of electricity. Everything goes dim and hazy.

The footsteps approach again, but don’t turn away. A blue sleeve appears at the doorway.

Blue sleeves fearfully screams into his radio "Subject kilo-two-two has escaped... lock the facility down immediately."

Sirens sound and the facility lights up like a Christmas tree. More feet pound around the building and the snick of guns being loaded fills Jon with concern.

The sirens cause a splitting pain across Jon's head and then the sirens abruptly stop... along with everything else.
