Voices. All I heard were voices.

Is he going to be ok?

He just had a bad power reaction.

But he was awake when it happened! Future seeing only happens when you're asleep!

This is quite an odd situation, isn't it?

He'll have to stay here for a few more hours, Alexander.

Keep some of the CISA agents here to watch over him.

We're running tests on him. He's stable for now.

Demio was using the healing spell on him. He's going to be ok.

Have him sleep for now, he may have a brain fracture.

Alrighty'

I slowly opened my eyes from a dark abyss to the shimmering light of slight noon. When I wake up, I realized that I was tucked into a white hospital bed with all sorts of machinery everywhere. The sheets that sat under me were as warm as the sun and clean, comfy covers piled over me like sand.

My head was on a fluffy pillow that was also white. Wow, they seem to love the color white, huh? A bunch of tubes of all sizes were connected to both of my arms like snakes puncturing my skin. However, the tubes didn't hurt, but they cling onto my arms skin like mad. 

I had a few white bandages scattered all over my head, and I realized that I was dazed with my mind, not being able to think straight. A heavy thumping filled my skull. I felt really heavy all over my body and I could only move a little, possibly only squirm. No one seemed to be here.

After gathering up the strength to do so, I started to lean forward only ever so slightly when a nurse came in. She seemed to have been checking up on me, but when she noticed me struggling to sit up, she scurried over to softly pushed me back down into a lying position.

"Hello Benjamin!" She said with an eager voice and a large smile. I smiled back at her politely with a struggle and asked nervously, "Hi! Uhm, one question, where am I..?" The nurse looked at me with a happy face and explained cheerfully, "You're in the hospital wing!" 

As I started to piece together what had happened, I gasped in surprise. Was the fall that bad? The woman in front of me had on a white nurse suit with a clipboard near her waist. She had blond hair that was bundled into a tight bun and it swirled around in a motion of clockwise turnings. She had on black heels and a white mask.

For a moment, I just looked at her, astonished and confused. I then realized that I must have really gotten hurt to be sent to the hospital wing. "Don't worry! You're healing quite well and you can be released within a few hours. You can also stay here until tomorrow if you would like too!" She said cheerfully, observing my face of astonishment and worry.

I yawned and stretched as I felt my head. It was an odd throbbing in the back just like before, but it was now, very slowly, fading away. My body hurt all over a little bit, but not as much as before when I woke up. I could now move around a little better and actually feel things without wincing in pain.
