Two girls seemed to play in a garden array of flowers, running and laughing as the older one seemed to pursue the young one in chase. "You can't catch me big sis!" The younger sister boosted as the older one followed and laughed "I bet I could Lya!" The younger sister Lya speed up as her older sibling closed the gap at impressive speed yet before she could grab Lya. Lya dropped to the ground in pain, her eyes watering as blood poured from her nose and mouth.
In blind panic her older Sibling screamed "Mother! Father! Help, it's Lya!" Upon her the distressed cry an older more mature lady ran out in her long traditional kimono. The Woman grab her youngest child and called upon her 'Second gender' immediately trying to figure out what had happened. In shock of her findings she quickly applied her ability/attribute skill 'Dying breath', that like the skill 'Life' could heal sickness and death but this being a unique skill, it could bring those who had died back to life.
The father a middle aged man being slightly late dropped to his knees immediately when he arrived looking pale and scared for his younger daughter. "Dear, what is wrong with our youngest!?" He questioned in a worried strung voice.
"She's barely 10, there was nothing that seemed to be wrong when we had her checked up. But I sense it- our daughter, is a human" As if the words didn't resonate clear the Father's body shook, but this time not in worry but anger. His wife was a professional Doctor and well achieved hunter ranking in top 500. He knew she would not lie, especially if their child was involved. 'My youngest daughter is human' seemed to be the only thing he was worried about now as his wife's tears dropped on the child's face. 'So much blood' the mother's heart clenched for her youngest. It seemed the the pheromone for the genetic make up of the DNA strand by the green light foundation hadn't agreed with her younger daughter. Resulting in backlash and internal injuries, the oldest daughter watched in heartbreak.
Her just slightly bigger hands gripped her younger sister's, she promised that day she'd protect Lya.
Holding her hands now on this hospital bed was even more heartbreaking than it was when she was a child. Jie laid her head on the bedside just close enough to hear Lya breathe in and out in slow breaths. 'No matter what, I promise to protect you and one day with my own hands, heal you' Jie then kissed her younger siblings hands as she put them down on her stomach softly resting them on top of one another.
'I'll be back tomorrow, wait for me then Lya' once again swiping her wrist access card the door opened yet as Jie turned to exit upon one last look at her younger sister. A young teenager looked back at her, his hair in disarray and his piercing blue eyes stared right back at her. 'Was this the boy Maria had mentioned?' She wonder. Looking around and not seeing anyone further questions arose, 'why was he here?, How was he here? He had severe injuries did he not?' He was definitely the human boy, no aura or animal instincts were alert as the teenager looked like he'd been caught red handed.
"H-Hi" Sion said as Jie lifted her right eyebrow at him. 'Shit' he was sure no one else was here, he'd been so careful not to get caught too! The only reason he was here was because when he'd tried to sleep, the voice in his head had denied him that privilege!
***Some time earlier...
>> Host please finish daily tasks <<

"What the hell is all this!? Who are you and why are you in my head!" Shouted Sion as he finally gave up in the chances of sleeping with a looming voice. What even was the medicine he was supposed to take? He seemed to be perfectly fine after a few hours! And according to his mental trauma induced voice he was 100% heal yet lacking nourishment (food). Why was he even listening to it in the first place he had no clue!
>> System maintenance new time has been issued

"Like hell I will! You're not real! You're just a stupid hearing and sight impairment that I got because I went through a trauma inducing event! So stop talking to me! And remove this!" Gripping air in the direction of the hologram task board, Sion became irritated. God did condemn him and God was surely enjoying his madness episode as they screen in his vision finally disappeared.
>> Host's hearing isn't damaged and vision is fully operational <<
"Fuck off!" Sion shouted as he threw his pillow across the room. For some reason Sion would get easily agitated or irritated by slight noises or smells, his temper that he was usually good at keeping at bay would now spiral out of control.
>> Host please calm down, you must finish tasks before your transformation to ensure safety for you and those around you <<
What did that even mean, wait. If he did these stupid tasks would the voice finally leave?
>> No <<
'God dammit!' Pulling off his covers Sion's feet hit the could ground sooner than he expected, had he grown? Shaking off his thoughts he got up and began to walk around, as if tracking his movements the screen appeared once more. Only this time, more progress had been made to his mental hallucination screen.
>> Host please finish daily tasks <<
- Drink water (4/10)
- Take medicine (0/1)
- Walk (0.25/1km)
Reading the screen he stepped a bit forward and like before the movements were calculated.
>> Host please finish daily tasks <<
- Drink water (4/10)
- Take medicine (0/1)
- Walk (0.28/1km)
But was it just movements? Or did it only accept forward motion? Walking backwards a bit till he hit his room door, his back pressed to the mental he looked again.
>> Host please finish daily tasks <<
- Drink water (4/10)
- Take medicine (0/1)
- Walk (0.32/1km)
It did in fact calculated and apply all movements, as long as he was walking. Turning around he swiped his wrist access key on his door making it automatically open. Not knowing why he was doing this he surveyed the halls, left, empty, right was the same. The hospital had five floors and was pretty big, making 1km wouldn't take more than 12minutes right? Sion thought about what Nurse Cilia said 'Please don't wonder about when I'm not around, it would be dangerous for you even here in a hospital'. No doubt she was putting it nicely when she could of said 'As a human, even in a hospital you're an easy target' with that cheery know-it-all face.
But it was past hours, there wouldn't be anyone really up at this time. Walking forward he mentally apologised to Cilia as his room door automatically closed and he made his way down the hall.
