12 April 2008: Almost a month had past.
As the young James Stark sat in his hospital bed, confused and concerned as to why doctors would come in only to leave five seconds later or as to why they stood whispering in the shadows thinking James couldn't hear them.
When a doctor finally entered it was near night, and the pain medication was starting to wear off. The doctor was a tall looking man and carried a tuft of dark brown greying hair on his head, his eyes looked wise and concerned towards the young boy. The doctor came in and sat beside his bed, when James read the name-tag that was awkwardly pinned on the doctor's chest, it was tilted to the side lightly, leaning more towards the left. That slight tilt of the badge that read Dr Strange was a great annoyance towards James almost mocking him in that imperfect tilt, wishing that he could organise it, James held himself back started to fiddle with his cast.
Dr Stephen Strange was a neurosurgeon and a good one at that, but when he heard of the unusual case of the boy on floor seven, room 308; he possessed the to urge check it out for himself. The first thing that caught his eye when he entered the room, was the small handsome boy bundled in the sheets. He moved towards the boy with a glimpse of curiosity hidden in his eyes, what could make this boy special there were so many rumours circling him. As he knelt beside the bed he noticed that the boy's eyes were drawn to the crooked badge that hung on the left side of his coat, it was an awkward occurrence as Strange always was in pristine condition, there was an itch to correct it but the boy's attention towards the badge concerned him, he had also noticed that the boy held himself back from correcting it and chose to fiddle with his cast instead.
When Strange first spoke his voice was scratchy, he had just been in surgery for 14 hours and had only spoken when he shouted instructions, he asked "What is your name?", which probably wasn't the best conversation starter but none-the-less the boy answered almost to quickly pleased with some interaction, "My name is James Allen, what is your name?". James hadn't forgotten what had happened with his Mother or Father, he was just happy that someone didn't treat him like he was a glass that needed to be handled with care. Strange was surprised the boy had answered so quickly and was even more so when the boy asked for his name, although he was surprised Strange didn't back down from answering the question "Dr Stephen Strange", at the strange part of the Doctors name James struggled to hold in his laughter, Strange held a smile on his face on that, as much as it annoyed him that someone was laughing at his name; he was pleased that he'd made the boy happy.
The boy and the doctor talked about unusual and varying things during the hour that strange had free, these unusual things included the boy's parents, strange's encounters with patients, and some very random things. They talked until strange had to leave for another patient. Neither knew that that wouldn't be the last they met as James and Strange both had a bit of a habit of getting into troublesome situations.
