Awakened

Milton awoke in the strange laboratory, which seemed to be abandoned with cobwebs covering much of the room. He vaguely knew this place; though he didn’t recall it being so run down. On the other hand, his body was totally unfamiliar to him -- it was curvy and decidedly female, despite his memory of only ever being a guy. But looking around, more memories came back to him; had he actually asked for this?

He remembered his poor health and signing a contract to be frozen and then brought back to life in the future. Maybe this body was how it was done? Could it be that his brain was put into a different body? Considering the body he now possessed, it seemed very possible.

He felt like there should be somewhere here to answer his questions, but it seemed this place was completely abandoned -- which begged the question: Was he supposed to be revived at all? Maybe this body wasn’t the accident. Maybe it was the fact that he was awake at all.
