Savannah opened her eyes. Controls sizzled and spattered somewhere around her. The only light provided was caused by a flickering flame that was also out of sight. Steam poured from a vent above with a scream that overpowered the ringing in her ears. Flat on her back, she slowly turned her head left.

Gerald was on his belly, one arm out and the other crumpled beneath him.
