This choice: Going over a cliff! (Don't worry, she doesn't die...) • Go Back... she had no control of where she was going and she ended up going over the cliffs edge. Time began to slow done as Yvonne watched ,helplessly from her seat,her car fly through the guard rail and over the the edge of the cliff. Frantically she began to whirl the steering wheel hoping that it might change the outcome of what was about to happen. but there was no use to this as she was already going over the cliffs edge. She watched, screaming, as her car got closer and closer to the ground below. Items that were thrown in the backseat began to float in midair as the car fell, Tears filled her eyes
This is it I'm going to die where the last thoughts she had before everything went black.

Tom was sitting at home watching TV with a beer in hand as he relaxed after a hard day at work. It had been a hard road to get here but Tom was proud of where he was at now. At the young age of only 29 he was one of the most successful property tycoons in the country. It was a hard and long road to get here but here he was, rich, successful and he enjoyed every minute of it.
Just as he was about to relax his phone suddenly started to ring. Tom gave a sigh as he got up to see who was calling him so late at night. when he reached his phone he saw that the number said unknown.
"ugh, who could this be, hello"
"Ah, Mr Morrison"
"speaking, who is this"
"I'm doctor Halley Dean"
Toms eyes widened "Doctor?"
"Yes Doctor, I'm calling from Sinclair hospital. I'm afraid there's been an accident."
"An accident?"
"Yes sir. I'm calling on behalf of Yvonne Maxwell. Its listed here that your her emergency contact."
"Yvonne, What happened?!"
"I'm sorry to tell you this sir, but shes been in a terrible car crash"
Tom had to steady him self on a nearby shelf when he heard the news "Oh my god Is she alright?"
"well shes in surgery right now and wont be out for a while. but I have to be honest its not looking good"
Tom could feel his heart pond against his chest as he listened to the doctor on the other end of the phone. Yvonne and Tom had been friends for years,since high school, in fact Tom was Yvonne's only friend. Yvonne was constantly bullied growing up because of her height and the taller she got the worse the bullying became. Tom was the only one to stand up for her, no matter who the bully's were, and its was with his help and support of her that she became a model.
"Sir? SIR?"
"huh? sorry I spaced out for a moment. this is a lot to take in."
"I understand. look can you come in I think we need to talk in person"
"of course I'll be there soon"
Tom hung up and quickly grabbed his jacket and keys and headed out the door.

It didn't take long for Tom to make it to the hospital. Quickly he rushed to the reception desk.
"how can I help you sir" the young receptionist on duty looked to be in her early twenties.
"I'm here for Yvonne Maxwell, she was taken in a short while ago" Tom was frantic his heart hadn't stopped pounding since he heard the news. His whole body wouldn't stop shaking, the dread he felt in his heart and the adrenaline pumping through his veins saw to that.
"Ah, yes Doctor Dean mentioned you where coming she said to meet her on the second floor in room 1A"
Tom didn't even stop to thank the young girl,as soon as he heard where he was meant to be he took of like a bat out of hell. Quickly he reached the elevator and pressed the button taken him to the second floor. "Don,t worry Yvonne I'm almost there"
As soon as the doors opened he rushed out in search of room 1A. After a few minutes of frantic searching he found his way to the door and knocked. he heard Dr deans voice from the other side of the door.
"Come in"
stepping in the room Tom was surprised to see there where a group of people standing around in a circle each one had a serious look on their face. A small women about 46 years old stepped forward and put her hand out for Tom to shake.
"Ah, Mr Morrison I'm glad you made it in time"
Shaking her hand Tom was a bit confused on to what was going on.
"Er in time for what. Is Yvonne going to be ok." he was starting to panic.
"calm down Mr Morrison, Yvonne's not only incredibly tall but very resilient"
Tom let out reveled sigh "that's a relief, so when can I see her"
Tom noticed everyone in the room faces drop "what?"
An old man stepped forward fixing his glasses "well Mr Morrison we don't wont to give you the wrong idea here and any false hope. Miss Maxwell's condition is very serious. her car was found totaled at the bottom of a cliff its a miracle shes still alive"
Tom couldn't believe what he was hearing tears began to fill his eyes. " are you telling me that shes going to die"
This time it was Dr dean that spoke "well Tom that depends entirely on you"
Tom couldn't help but be shocked how could he help he wasn't a doctor he had no idea how to help Yvonne. " what are you talking about I deal in land and buildings not people, how can I possible help"
Dr Dean smiled " well all you need to do is give us your blessing."
"what, my blessing?"
The old man started to explain things " Mr Morrison my name is Harold Keen and I'm a medical scientist it is my job to create new ways to save peoples lives"
Tom looked at him unsure of what was going on "ok so what does this mean for Yvonne"
Harold smiled " Me and my team here" Harold gestured to the remaining three people in the room "have created a kind of symbiotic nano bot that perfectly blends organic with the inorganic. Its my belief that with our help your friend can live life like nothing ever happened"
This sounds to good to be true "ok so whats the catch. if this thing you've created can save her life than why haven't you done so already?"
"Because Mr Morrison this will be the first time its ever used"
"What!"
"look I'm going to be straight with you here, I have been working on this for twenty years now trying to get this breakthrough to happen but recently the government has grown concerned with the possible implications my research might have and have pulled all my funding and seized all my data and research"
