"Doctor."

The tall knight gazes her eyes to the door and the knife. Then to him. Nearl takes the knife out and looks at it while the Doctor begins to lose control of himself.

"Gray Nearl...? How can you have my ancestor's knife Doctor?"

Nearl locks her eyes on Y/n and notices something weird about him. His eye is cold. Colder than she has ever seen on someone else.

"Doctor?"

She carefully walks over to him and places her hand on his shoulder. Y/n look at her hand and hears someone else's voice.

"I HATE YOU!!"

The Doctor was about to take Nearl's hand off him until she says something that calms him down.

"You okay? Because I am here if you need me Y/n." Nearl mistaking said his name than his professional title. Doctor.

"You okay? Because I am here if you need me Y/n."

His eyes close for a moment and then opened again. The cold eye turned back to the warmth is shown before and he smiles at Nearl.

"I am sorry Nearl. I almost lost myself there. And please call me Y/n for now. It reminds me of an old friend."

The Doctor requested sincerely.

"Then he left me in the office. I do not know what happened exactly other than he was about to cut my hand off."

Nearl stands over Doctor Kal'tsit with her newest report on Doctor Y/n. Shining raise her eyebrow behind the knight with Liz looking around like a lost child.

"Thank you Miss Nearl. You all may leave now."

Doctor Kal'tsit gives them permission to leave and the Followers left the office. Seconds after, she opens a drawer under her desk.

Looking at the picture of a smiling man and her intervening their fingers together. Both having a golden ring on the left ring finger.

At the many offices of Rhodes Island are there seven young girls in Y/n's office. The three students. The four from Chernobog.

The hostility from Ifrit and Projekt Red at Zima making the air in the room tense. Gummy and Rosmontis are teaming against Istina, as they play cards.

Rosa, the oldest of them all is standing behind the Doctor while the two check the new-founded items from the broken wall.

"And you suddenly punch a metal wall like nothing? How strong are you Doctor?"

Her eyes are on a silver ring. The material maybe look not the finest, but for her. It reminds her of the old life. The life before Catastrophe.

"I do not know Rosa. However, I definitely packed with a punch."

The Doctor noticed her gaze on the ring. He smiles and takes her hand, opening it up while doing so.

"Here. I know I will not need it."

Y/n gifts Rosa the silver ring and everyone in the room stops their own things. The six girls have their own expression on them. The duo, Ifrit and Projekt Red tilt their heads to the side in anger. Zima gives the Doctor an expression of disgust. Gummy and Rosmontis gasp in surprise with Istina fixing her molocle. To see it better.

Rosa, standing in front of the Doctor hold her mouth in shock with her free hand. She thought, she can not take it. It could be something from Doctor's pre-amnesia's past.

"I-I-I—Thank you."

Rosa felt happy. Happier than Zima confessing her love for vodka while the bear girl was drunk. Then, Rosa feels something around her finger. It is a silver ring.

"You welcome Rosa."
