CHAPTER 3.

3:12pm

As he regained consciousness , he still struggled to make out what the people in the room with him were saying , though he swore he heard "Teleportation" somewhere. He blinked , rubbing his eyes. "Oh , you're awake!" He heard surprisingly clearly, he assumed it was from Kristina. "Ahh , Reginald will be here soon with the medicine." Another voice sounded, with a surprisingly strong German accent , luring him to open his eyes. Turns out , the German accented voice belonged to the last person he would expect. It was a very pretty dark skinned lady with fluffy browny-ginger hair. She looked very sweet. But Lucian didn't want to get too distracted.

"Who and what?" He questioned sleepily , attempting to sit up. "Oh! Reginald is my fellow coworker , and we are going to give you some medicine!" The German lady responded. "Okay." He mumbled, too tired to give any complex reaction to her words. Almost a second later , the door to exit and enter his room swung open , a tall person- presumably male- walked in with a cup of water and a tiny container with a label on it. His hair , tied into a bun, covered one side of his face and he closely resembled Kristina. They must be siblings. "Oh gosh , Reggie , fix your hair!" Kristina exclaimed , brushing his hair out of the way. Lucian gasped. The right side of his face was all shredded up , a scar healed a long time ago.

Reginald's gaze flickered towards Lucian. "Welp , buddy , here you go." Reginald set the cup down on the stand next to the bed Lucian was set up in , opening the tiny container and dumping two pills into his hand. "Swallow these." He held them out for Lucian. "I..I never learnt how to swallow tablets." Lucian admitted , looking down at the bedsheets. "Fun fact; I didn't either until last friday." Reginald said , putting his hands on his hips. "Try blanking your mind and swallowing." He recommended. Lucian stared at the wall ahead of him , trying to focus solely on the wall. He suddenly swallowed, the pills finally going down his throat, much to his mouths distaste. They left an extremely bitter taste in his mouth. "Bleuch." He grumbled , scrunching up his face.

Reginald tapped the wooden stand next to him , the cup sitting there. He picked it up and downed it , setting it back down on the stand rather aggressively. Reginald winced. "Well , at least it worked." He stated , grinning weakly and winking. "What does it even do?" Lucian asked , not feeling much different. "Helps with the sleepiness , also prevents after effects of teleporting. Only problem is , it doesn't fix muscle weakness nor balance issues. So , you may have to walk around using some form of mobility aids or just lay in bed. I would advise you got up and moved around so muscle weakness doesn't worsen." Reginald ranted.

"Anyways , what's your name? I'm Reginald , but you can just call me Reggie." He enquired , sitting on the edge of the bed. Lucian tried not to stare at the ravaged side of Reggie's face. "My name's Lucian. Uhm , you can call me Lucy if you want." Reginald slowly nodded. "Lucian sounds like a nice name." He complimented. "Thanks. Reggie sounds nice too."
