12:53mn

I jerked up awake and fully wide eye with a pen in my hand then I glanced down and I saw what I am doing.

Absolution?

I frowned, so I am making a story? What for?

I tried to read what I written there but the names and events gives me an unwelcome chills in my body.

Why does it sound familiar? Why does it feel like all of what is written here happened already?

Cassiel? Azrael? Those names are in the bible isn't?

Then, there I saw in my peripheral vision someone passed by from the gap of my door.

I stand up and I decided to follow it just like what the heroine did in Absolution.

3rd Person

The doctor remove his eyeglasses from his eyes and wipe the lenses clean before putting it back again.

He can barely read the scribbles of his patient in a bloody paper that the nurse gave to him.

He feel so sorry for the patient, an 18 year old who is suffering in Schizophrenia is not an easy medication.

After all, the girl have fallen to her delusions and depression that she can barely differentiate the reality from fantasy.

He wanted to give her an encouragement but how can he do that if everytime he looks at the girl all the motivational words he wanted to say was being pushed back to his throat.

It seems that something is stopping him.

He stand up and he ask his nurse to guide the patient back to her room so that he can study her case overnight.

He watched as the girl is being guided by the nurse from walking out of the room.

"Nice medication, doc. You didn't injected false hopes in her mind unlike the others."

He stand up abruptly "W-who are you? How did you get here?"

The man in a black hair walks towards him with a wicked smile in his lips.

"I am Gremory and I don't need to explain why I am here to a pathetic mortal like you."

He frown, he remember the story he read from the girl's journal.

It does ring a bell where he have read that name there.

"Whoever you are, this place is not for visitors."

He shivers when the man named Gremory studies his shaking form. He knows to himself he needs to get out of there.

He needs to escape.

"Don't ever try to think to escape. I killed all the people here in this institution. Except Alice and you."

He is trembling "W-what do you need from me?"

A psychotic grin graced Gremory's face as he looks at him in the eye.

"Isn't bad that I want to borrow your body for a while?"

Fin.
