Passed out

Scott's eyes bounce around the ground as he tries to stay in command of his thoughts. He didn't know. The memory was foggy. He didn't want to remember. What if it triggered another overload? What if he couldn't stay in control? "I...I don't know." He continues to rock, his hands shaking under Hope's soft grip.

He swallows hard, knowing he needed to remember as much as he could, but not wanting to at the same time. "It...I... he came and... and I got scared 'cause... of what happened... happened before."

Scott draws in another shaky breath. "I...I don't know what happened. Seeing him, it... it brought back everything and I saw all this data and...and..."

Standing abruptly, he wraps his arms around himself and paces in front of the bench, still not looking at Hope. His head hurt. He felt like it was hard to breath. His pulse was growing more rapid. "He...he... I don't know. Said something. I didn't believe him. He was trying to apologize for something and... and I tried to listen but I was in the corner and, and.."

He puts his hands on his head, the headache worsening. "I was in the corner... it all went... black."

Without warning, Scott's legs buckle. His reflexes don't even react as his body collapses onto the ground, his eyes rolling back. His head ricochets off the corner of the bench, gashing his temple before he hits the soft earth, unconscious.


Leo chuckles and takes another bite of breakfast. "Well, I don't know about right as rain, but anything would be better than yesterday."

Doing his best to eat what he could, he manages to finish his eggs and almost all of his toast. Sighing deeply, he look across at Cassy, not really knowing what to do now. "I think... I am going to sack out on my bed and try to catch a stupid movie on television, which will probably put me to sleep again, but that would be better than going in to work."
