“Yeah, that’s great. ” Kane said. He watched the cycle draw, pause, draw, pause… each draw a bit more of the conciousness that was Corinne Dalton. It felt like hours, but it was actually only about forty minutes when the cube pulsed three times and went dark. The bed around the body flared with a brilliant blue-white light and rhen slowly faded, pulsing more and more slowly until it too went dark.
“Theta waves are excellent. It means the brains higher cognitive functions and subconscious is active.” Alexis continued to monitor the finer details and watched, fascinated, as the limbs jerked and twitch as the nerves activated.
Kane looked at the vitals. Stable and well within normal range. Brain activity was high, but still within normal ranges. It looked like she was having extremely vivid dreams… but she was dreaming. He looked at Alexis and grinned. “I… I think that’s it.” he said in a slightly awed voice. “Holy fu<%! We just moved a person!” he said loudly. He stared at Dalton’s race for a minute and then said “Shit. Hang on.” and he left the room, coming back with a gown that he put on her. “Coming to naked in a place you don’t know is for benders and long R&R.”
Kane, R&D
Dira chuckled. “Good thinking.”
Alexis grinned, “We did.” She was still cautious. They moved Dalton, but would it hold? She helped to get the gown on their patient and then took several detailed scans, watching the electrical impulses, making sure they didn’t fluctuate. She watched the O2 saturation and the blood circulation, her heart rate and pulse rate. She watched as the different brain waves began to register. “Now we just have to wait for her to wake up.”

“It’s extraordinary,” Dira said, moving closer. She could see the eyelid twitches indicating REM sleep. She stayed in the woman’s potential field of vision, but not so close as to be hovering. Suddenly, Myqian was noticeably overwhelmed.
“She’s feeling joy. Whatever dream she’s having, it’s a happy one.” That she could pick up feelings from Dalton was astonishing, given a little while ago, her emotional states were detectable due to holographic displays.

Time was meaningless. For Cori, she existed in a place she couldn’t remember ever feeling before.
And then things shifted. It was gradual, the intense light dimming but then she found herself at a doorway. Curious. Who would put a door in the middle of rolling hills? Reaching out, the metal was smooth and cold as her fingers closed around it. It’s time, a voice sounded. Was that her voice?
“It’s time,” she told herself.
In the Quarantine Bay, 36 minutes after the transfer was complete, Cori’s lips moved, murmuring… something.
Hand still firmly on the handle, she took a deep breath, turned and pulled.
More light. Except… there was more beyond that. A space, or at least the outline of one.
Curious and content, Corinne Dalton stepped through the doorway.
Her brain shifted to alpha waves and for another six minutes, nothing else changed.
And then her lids fluttered. Her fingers flexed a little and she squinted a bit at the light, closing her eyes tightly for a moment. She could feel… everything. Every muscles, every nerve. It was all yelling at her brain.
Her heart rate spiked.

Kane grabbed a hypo and gave her a mild sedative and pain killer. “Let’s keep her still.” and he activated a low power restraining field. He looked down at her and said “Dalton. Lieutenant, hey! Look at me. Do you know me?”
Kane, R&D
Her eyes fluttered again and she squinted, her body relaxing as the sedative swept through her system. Cori blinked. And blinked again. A face came into frame. The wild hair, the beard. Her vivid blue eyes gazed intently. “Kane?” she rasped, before she began coughing. She was coughing. Coughing! If it weren’t tfor the coughs, she’d be losing her mind trying to reconcile that little detail just now.
