Author's Note:

I changed a little bit of the plot around. Hopefully this gives you some more clarification, and thus, a better reading experience. Happy reading!

To whom it may concern,

My name is Samantha Margaret Ford. I am writing this letter with the hope of shedding some light on the situation that is found here at the HSD. Many people, myself included, were subjected to many illegal acts without consent or prior knowledge. Horrific things happened here, things that are too gruesome to mention in this letter. Others weren't as lucky as I was. I was able to get out just long enough to get this out. Hopefully it finds someone soon. I don't know how much longer I'll be able to keep this a secret.

I have seen many people locked away in cells for mass amounts of time, starved and forced to sit in their own filth until they are taken in the back or die on their own. Experiments were conducted in disgusting operating rooms, filled with blood and dirt. There is sickness everywhere and most of us didn't make it past the first stage.

In the beginning, I had no recollection of who I was, where I was from, and how I got to the White Room. Eventually, my memories came back through dreams and exposure to different things. However I am not completely the same. Many things happened to me while in captivity, things that I am not soon to forget.

My story is far too long to be shared now, for I only have moments before they catch me. But remember my name, for my name alone is proof enough that this institution should be stopped. My name... and this letter.

I have one more thing to add: I do not regret my actions—the things I've done, things I've said, and what I will do. And I'll stop at nothing to make it out alive.

Sam Ford,
Patient 5474009
