Riker groggily opened his eyes. He looked around the room in confusion, forgetting for a moment where he was and what had happened. When he did remember, tear stung his eyes, threatening to fall. He didn't know how long he'd been imprisoned in this room or where the room even was. He could be in Timbuktu for all he knows. But he didn't care. All he could think of was Savannah. He had left the hospital in a panic trying to find her and ended up in this tiny prison. He failed her. Tears dripped down his face as he thought of her and the family he had left behind.
