I jolted awake, a couple of hours later, just as the morning sun peeked over the horizon. My body felt heavier than lead, as if gravity itself had wrapped chains around my limbs. I blinked hard, the air thick with the coppery scent of blood, diesel, and rotting bandages. Sweat trickled from my temple to the crook of my neck, the jungle heat taking full effect, letting me know I was awake and this was not a dream.
