She felt a cold sweat break out on her forehead. The air was thick, suffocating. She swayed on her feet, the world tilting and blurring around her. She struggled to take a breath, her lungs refusing to cooperate.

Her hands shook uncontrollably. She needed to escape, to disappear. This was a nightmare, and she needed to wake up.
