In her bed

Slowly, Coco regained her consciousness. Her entire body was aching and felt a little strange to her, almost alien. She didn't dare to open her eyes just yet and groaned softly as her hands caressed her temples. She tried to remember what had happened to her, but everything was blurred. She knew she was in the laboratory earlier but that is about all that she could remember right now. 'What happened to me? Why do my muscles ache so much?' she thought to herself.

Coco blinked a few times and then opened her eyes carefully, the light shining through her window blinding her, so she covered her face with one hand. At first, she could only make out a couple of textures, so she blinked again and then realized that she was in her own bedroom. 'How did I get back here? Why am I here? Did I oversleep and just dreamed of being at the lab?', Coco couldn't wrap her mind around what happened to her nor what time of day it might be. She groaned loudly again as she tried to sit up, her body barely reacting to her commands and the pain in her muscles caused her to feel nauseous and lose her eye sight for a moment again.

She steadied her breath and remained like this with her eyes closed, as her door opened. She could hear someone draw closer and a chair scraping over the floor but she didn't dare to move again or open her eyes. The soft touch to her face send shivers down her spine, as the big hand petted her.

"Are you alright, Princess?" she heard her father whisper. "You had me worried for a moment"

"What happened, Dad?" Coco asked, her voice strained.

"You have to tell me, Princess. I was alarmed by the guard that found you. Said you had a seizure? We immediately gave you a sedative and a cure against that, in case it was caused by something neural." He leaned in and gently kissed her forehead, which caused Coco to moan gently in response. _"Don't you dare do that to me again, Princess, you scared the shit out of me." He sighed softly. "Anyway, I brought you back home now and will be monitoring and testing you for any side effects"_

"I am sorry, Dad" Coco answered, her voice to weak to be anymore than a whisper. "I am sorry I ruined my last day at the lab, too, Dad."

He smiled and shook his head. "Oh Princess, don't worry, I am sure you will see the lab again"

Coco shivered, the sentence didn't seem right like that, but for now she just wanted to rest. "Thanks, Dad" she whispered before she slid down and drifted back to sleep.
