"SO, HOW MUCH LINK TIME HAVE YOU LOGGED?" GRACE ASKS NORM, "Uh, about 520 hours." He replies to the women, "That's good" she says impressed.

"You're in there." She pointed at a link bed and Norm walked over to it, "You're in there." she repeated pointing to another and my brother made his way over. "And you, are in there." she told me, "You've got this covered? You know what to do?" She asks me, "Yeah, I know what to do." I replied.

"Ok, I'll send someone to send you in once you're ready." Grace told me, "Ok, thank you" I said as she walked away.

I got into the bed and laid down on the bed and waited for someone to close is and start it up.

Once someone came over and closed the lid I started to close my eyes and drift off.

I woke up before Jake and Norm and noticed I have some wires stuck to me. The nurses came up to me and did a couple of test, making sure everything was working correctly.

Once they finished they let me go out side, Norm and Jake haven't woken up yet.

When I walked outside I was met with the scenery of the forest edge and a few avatars playing basketball.

I spotted Grace sitting in a couple of steps outside of a building, I waved at her whilst shouting "Hey!". She smiled in response whilst I walked over to her, when I was a couple of feet away she got up from her seat on the step.

"You look good!" She said shaking her head a bit, smiling at me, "Don't I always look good?" I reply, teasing her. She shook her head smiling at me.

Me and Grace continue talking until she spots someone in the distance and gets up, gesturing me to follow her.

"Hey marine!" She shouts walking up to an avatar in a white gown, I'm guessing it my brother from the name.

"Grace?" He asked smiling.

"Who'd you expect numb nuts?" She asked him teasingly. "Think fast!" She said whilst launching a Pandora fruit in the air for him to catch, clearly aiming for his face.

He caught it with ease, "Motor controls looking good." Grace said.

I finally got up from where I was sitting and walked over to them.

"Hey baby bro." I said with a small smirk.

"You know, I'm 12 minutes older than you." He sad jokingly, to which I ignored.

After I showed Jake around the camp we went over to the basket ball pitch to play 1 vs 1.

I forgot how good he was.

I still won though.

Let's just say he's a sore loser.

"Come on, everybody, quiet down!" I heard Grace yell from across the room. It was finally night time and we were gonna go to sleep.

"Alright, gang, lights out. Come on, Louise, chop-chop." She said walking down the isle of beds towards the door.

"Don't play with that, you'll go blind." She joked walking past me and jakes beds which were next to each other, Jake playing with his queue.

"That's kind of freaky." He mumbled.

"Come on. Scat." Grace said locking the doors to the cabin so our avatar bodies will be safe until the next morning.

"Lights out! See you at dinner, kiddies." She says turning the lights off which make me and Jake lay down and close our eyes.

——————

I open my eyes and see the lights of the bed around me. I open the lid to the bed and step out.

"Welcome back." I heard Max say to Jake.

"Hey Jake, how'd you like it?" I said walking up to him with a smile.

He looks up at me and says "I love it, it feels good to be able to walk again to be honest, I didn't know how much I missed it until today."

"Glad you enjoyed it." I said with a smile, "I'm gonna go find Grace, see you later." I said already walking off.
