Perhaps it was an effect of how shocking and weird that scene was already, but the pink haired could see that the body lying on the floor and being devoured by the wolf had pink dragon wings, tail and horns, in the case of the wing and the tails they were fluffy on the back.

She didn't really know why, but the terror also mixed with anger, seeing herself being devored like that made her feel like rushing to the animal and giving it a powerful kick, and so she did! Impulsively the girl sprinted towards the wolf and kicked it away. Not only she could do it, proving that she was not some kind of ghost for now, but she also sent it flying meters away until it collided and destroyed a tree trunk.

—.... Was that my strength?— She said, confused. When she attempted to take a gaze at where her dead body should be she didn't find it at all, instead, she felt strange and invigorated for a second and looked around, noticing that now she had those dragon wings and even the tail.

« What's... The meaning of this? » She thought and took a look at her own hands, closing them a few times and also noticing that she had pink dragon claws on them, simply her nails looked a little sharper and way more durable than before.
The wolf beast was not one to easily give up, even if it was covered by blood and probably injured it continued its merciless attack, lunging onto the girl just to be quickly shattered by an unconscious reflex action of her. In a moment of panic the pink haired dragon girl simply used her claws to attack the beast, making a mess with the wolf and hopefully killing it this time.

She looked at her hand trying to realize what she just did, it had blood there and she was trembling, it was confusing, everything in that place was. « I pierced it with my nails as if it'd be butter... » Her hand trembled a little more, scared not only about that place but also about herself.
The now dragon girl turned and sprinted towards the lake so she could clean her hand with its water, but the lake was not there anymore, she could see it in the horizon as if she would have been moving away while fighting the wolf.

Her eyes widened when she noticed that, in fact, the distance between the lake and her was increasing. In panic, she attempted to reach it the faster way possible for her, extending her dragon wings and taking flight.
«... So I can do this after all? » She thought while hurrying to the lake, her bloodied hand was feeling itchy and uneasy.
Surprisingly, the pink haired didn't have any issue to control her flight at all, it was as if she just knew how to do it naturally. When she was about to reach the lake a barrage of fire arrows came from the forest beneath her and brutally pierced her, it was not only a painful multiple impact, but it also burned... She fell back to the forst, in agony.

When it seemed to be all over, there she was again, aside of the burnt corpse of herself, it had many arrows pierced. —...NOOOOO!— She yelled in both panic and fear and ran away, probably flying wasn't a good idea after all.
While running through that forest, the poor girl could keep seeing terrible scenes around that scary place, she was seeing herself, her corpses, dead in many different ways, crying and trying to not pay attention to it she eventually had an encounter with herself again, it was not a corpse this time.
That other dragon girl was lying on the ground and slightly raised her hand and head, looking at her. —P-please... Help me...— She said, two shadows of humanoid form were stomping on her and laughing like crazy...

......................

After that shocking scene a lot of different sequences and information overflowed the girl and when she opened back her eyes she was still there, in the hospital's bed, sweating and breathing fast as she looked around, she was alone there.
—Was it... Just a nightmare?— She mumbled, looking at her own hands, the pink dragon claws were there and she almost seemed to see the blood in her hand again, even if just for a second in the case of the latest.
—......— The pink haired girl sighed for a moment and slapped away the bed's sheets with her dragon tail, not only she could move it but it definitely was there. « I see... I still don't know what happened at all nor who I am, but... I remember this, I am a dragon but humans can't see such things. There are... Other races too... It's too much information...» She held a hand on her forehead for a moment.

« At least the nurse was right, sleeping made me remember something, even if not what I wanted to, well, in a sense I know more about myself now? » Just as she was thinking about it she also received the visit of the nurse and the doctor at that moment.
—Oh, you are already awake?— She asked.
« Funny term... I remember its meaning, fully, indeed...» She briefly smiled because of the irony and double sense that the nurse words had on her.
—Yes...— She simply replied and nodded to the nurse.
— Feeling better? Did you remember something? — The nurse asked.

The girl simply shook her head a few times. It's not like she could explain them that she just remembered about being a dragon or those things. The doctor and the nurse looked at each other and shrugged.
—Sadly, there is no reason we can give to the director for holding you here when you are in perfect state of health... Uhm, you understand that, right?— The doctor said and scratched the back of his head, deep inside feeling bad about the mysterious girl's unjustified amnesia.
The pink haired looked down, a bit sad about it. It wasn't because she had to leave that place, but because she didn't know what to do once she'd be outside. —Yes I understand...—

Both the nurse and the doctor looked at each other once more and nodded, as they approached the girl and began to carefully take away the tube she got injected in her hand, as well as preparing and changing a few things in the room so it would be free once more. It wasn't even painful for the girl to have that removed, or perhaps she didn't even focus on it, the nurse simply covered the place where it was injected with a plaster.
—Now you are ready to go if you want... You didn't have clothes when we found you, so you can take the hospital gown with you. — The doctor said.
—And I guess it's pointless to ask you to fill the leaving form.— The nurse added.
—....— The pink haired dragon girl just sighed and looked at her sides, she had the dragon wings as well. Slowly she got up from the bed, only dressed with the green hospital gown and walking away, leaving behind an empty —Thanks.—

The pink haired girl didn't want to stay more in that place, she hurried her steps and in a moment, unconsciously, she already went through the corridor, a few stairs and was standing on the hospital's entrance. She looked at her surroundings with attention and a deep sadness that she could not fully understand herself.

« I know this place. This is the Nanashima General Hospital, located in the central district of the city... I ... I know every part of this city and even things that others probably wouldn't know... » She thought and looked back at her own hands and pink dragon claws.
« Yet... Why do I still feeling so empty? As if there would be something important that I forgot, even more than who I am myself?... » She kept thinking as tears began to uncontrollably flow down her cheeks, even if she was not sobbing, she just couldn't stop them, they were some kind of reflex reaction to an unknown lost knowledge.
« What is the meaning of life? Why am I standing here and what should I do at all?.... .... There's nothing.... I must find my answers or recover my memories, somehow. » The girl clenched a fist, it was the only determination she got at that moment, to know what to do right now or who she was.
