Get up, despite the pain, and move quickly away from Drake.
"I'm not a traitor! I joined because I need the money, and that's the only reason! I can't tell you why I'm acting weird or I'm pretty sure they'll shut off my brain!"
...This... This is why you gave me the nanites, isn't it? Isn't it?

We gave you the nanites so that you could take down Drake if we deemed it necessary. But since you guessed it, yes, that's another reason. But we aren't going to do that right now. At least, if you don't talk. In fact, we might be able to help you with that, but we aren't responsible for anything Drake decides to do with you.
Drake picks you up by your neck. "Don't think that I forgot what you said when you first came here, Cale...you were spouting off about some Ishmael character...I think that's a good starting point...why don't you tell me about him? Come on! You'll save yourself a whole lot of trouble if you just tell me now..." Drake holds the red hot iron up to your face. You notice the symbol, an Ouroboros, the image of a serpent devouring its tail.

I fucking hate you more than I thought was possible.
"IF I WAS GOING TO BETRAY YOU I WOULDN'T HAVE MENTIONED HIM. I ONLY KNOW NOW THAT ISH-"
Turn my voice to static, then turn it off completely, and start trying to shout with it off, venting very real anger, hoping he comes to the conclusion it was hacked.

"Well, that was THEN. Of course, allegiances, goals, and motivations don't remain constant. Remember that one, Jeremy." Drake sets you down, and then starts wheeling you down the hallway, towards the room he came out of.

...I've seen what this guy does to people... You better fucking do something...
Put my last faith in the people I despise most, and quickly see if I can turn off my sense of touch.

You can't turn off touch. Drake throws your shirt and jacket off, hauling you inside the room and slamming the door.
You're thrown unceremoniously onto a table, Drake strapping you down with leather straps, holding you in place. You note the variety of horrifyingly well-kept tools of murder on the walls, Drake taking a power drills off and spinning it up. "Cale, Cale, Cale...you know how upset I am, don't you? Well..."
He puts the branding iron on your arm, the meat sizzling under the burning metal!

"...You've hurt me, Cale! You know how I feel right now? I feel SAD!" Drake says, not sounding sad at all.
This operation's a bust...alright, Cale, here's the deal. We're just going to clear up this situation for you, and then you won't ever have to think about this again. In fact, you won't remember any of this.
You feel odd as your nervous system seems to tingle, and your body stops responding to you.
"Hello, Drake...I think it's about time we had a formal talk..." you say as you black out.
**********************************************
You wake up, another day of living, another normal day for you. You're in your apartment, same weapons on the walls, same computer equipment, same birthday card from your sister on the desk. You feel like today's going to be particularly boring. You've woken up with a hangover, typical from a morning after a round of hard drinking, and you're still aching a bit from whatever it was you did to make your entire body sore. You might have gone a bit overboard with these augmentations...

Try to remember how exactly I managed to get this many augs, and go onto my computer.

You experienced an unprecedented windfall after the best night of gambling in your life, so you got these augmentations. At least, that's what you think happened. You recall being drunk that night as well.
You head to your computer, turning it on.

Wonder if was the same night I thought it would be a good idea to get that stupid fucking snake marking, and check my messages.

You have to wonder what kind of tattoo parlor you stumbled into to get this thing, the area around it is still swollen, and it feels more like a burn mark than a tattoo, but you've never gotten a tattoo before so you can't be sure about that one.
You have...a bunch of messages from several different companies, all of them belong to a few different megacorporations that you absolutely despise, but then again, a lot of people despise the megacorporations, so you're not alone there.

Don't bother reading those emails, and just delete them, hoping I find something good.
After that, piss some time away on the internet, having little else to do.

You sit at your computer for a while, before coming to the realization that you're out of beer and good food, and that you might want to head down for a grocery run if you want to have a decent lunch, it's about 10:00 AM right now.

Get dressed into something half-respectable, and go out to get groceries, ending up at a pizza take-out instead.
