The nurse rushed into the ward and checked Thomas's situation. However, he looked fine.
"Miss, are you sure something happened? He looks perfectly fine to me," the nurse said with a bit annoyed expression. "I do have other patients, so please only call if it is really necessary"
Thomas did not pay any attention to them thou. His attention was caught by a television. The sound was on all the bare minimum, however, he heard it clearly. Television showed news, about a missing person being found badly hurt in the forest. Thomas was intrigued. In hell, there was nothing even similar to this "television". Or was there? After all, now that he thinks about it, he wasn't even in hell. He was in "the Cage" after all. He was so focused on television, that he didn't even notice that the girl keeps trying to talk to him. And she put her hand gently on his shoulder, trying to get his attention.
Slightly annoyed Thomas looked at her.
"Who the hell are you?" How dare this person interrupts his first entertainment when he came to this world.
[System notice]
[Do you wish to acquire memories about this person?]
[Yes/No]
Why not? Sure. Wait, I can talk to this system?
[Yes, you can. And before you ask what am I, I am the combination of both Thomas's and Elijah's memories. Think of me as the last gift from Royan. Before dropping you into "the Cage", he inserted a bit of spiritual energy into Elijah which turned you into a demon afterward. However, due to the unstable mentality of a demon, you couldn't use the demon king's skills before. However, reincarnation fixed your mentality, but due to the shock of fusing two completely different personalities, many memories of BOTH were lost. I was created as a middle-ground for regaining your memories.
So, which one is the real me?
[Both of you are. Thomas is the body, Elijah is a demon.]
Not a spirit?
[Demons are basically spirits.]
Thomas was thinking to himself, realizing he was completely ignoring the girl in front of him.
[Inserting memories – beginning]
Clara Miller, a childhood friend of Thomas. You two were close since childhood, however. Since about two years ago, she started to ignore him due to her friends. She decided he wasn't cool enough to hang out with her anymore. She only said "hi" to him only due to him being her "childhood friend" and because her parents really like Thomas. Recently same friends she used to hang out with, got into fights with her, and started bullying her. She became a loner, but that didn't stop the bullying. After she got into a fight with a girl named Sandra, Thomas filmed the whole thing and showed Clara's mother.
Sandra's parents were involved, and so, she did not receive any punishment. In fact, she befriended Clara again like nothing ever happened. However, bullying transferred to Thomas. He was beaten up every day, and the school did nothing about it. Clara only got involved when she thought things are getting too far. But she didn't stop the bullying. In the end. Thomas cut his own wrists in the bathroom. However, what happened afterward, his mind went blank while he was sitting on top of the washing machine he fell and seriously injured his head.
[Inserting memories – Complete]
Ho? Interesting. Thomas thought to himself. He wonders where he is.
[Inserting everything that Thomas knew about hospitals.]
[Finished]
"What are you saying?" Clara felt confused. "Did you lose your memories by any chance? I can call the nurse…"
"NURSE!" Thomas shouted on top of his lungs.
The nurse rushed in soon. She feared something had happened to the poor kid.
"Are you in pain? What happened. Need medical attention?" the nurse kindly asked? She knew that person who already tried killing himself, should be monitored with care.
"This person is.." Thomas's said with teary eyes. "I don't want to see her ever again"
Thomas knew that he was looked after as a mental patient as well. And what else he knew, that hospital with get rid of this annoying ***** if only he pretends to be uncomfortable near her.
"Thomas? what are you saying" however, the nurse quickly pushed her out of the room.
"Young lady, you heard the boy. LEAVE!" nurse couldn't allow this patient to be disturbed.
