A stabbing pain was digging inside Kintar's mind, twisting and intensifying every so often. That might have been the reason she finally woke up. Unfortunately, her head was throbbing with pain just as much as her mind. This made it all too clear to her that even her soul was not doing too well.
"Fuck!" Kintar held her head, grimacing. Opening her eyes was another painful endeavor. It seemed as though each and every one of her cells was screaming. When she finally managed it and feebly flew inches from the floor, she saw a few others waking up and groaning.
All the Unlimited Stars were rising, cursing the pain and disorientation just as much as Kintar.
"Took you long enough," a voice said, drawing all their attention.
Uyuniya was standing by the consoles, crossing her arms. She gave Kintar, who squinted at her, a nod.
"What happened?" said Kintar. Her memory was playing hide-and-seek with her.
