It felt like someone had reached deep into Lee's throat and dried off every particle of her lungs. There was hardly any air sliding in and out of the organs, Lee's eyes wide as her brain tried to catch up and register what was going on. Alas, nothing was getting in. She just couldn't comprehend it. The pounding in her ears seemed to drown everything out and things remained like this until something snapped. At that point, her body found it in itself to produce a loud shriek akin to the sound an animal would make when in pain. Panicking, Lee unintelligently tried to scramble off of whatever was holding her, fingers sliding off of the armor and causing her to nearly fall. What was going on? Her body and brain seemed to be on completely different pages, her legs pressed so tightly against Gaius she could feel the painful pressure of the armor against the bone of her calves. Her mind however was reeling. Millions of anxiety-riddled questions flashed before her and all of a sudden she could smell marigold and ginseng. Images flashed into her brain and something tried to push them away but they grew strong. When Lee made the mistake of looking down however, was when things really started to go wrong.
