"I can't believe I had to share this body with all four of you" Dr. Anna complained.

They looked like a ghost. Translucent and floating in an empty white space.

There are 5 girls about the same age with each other.

"I think it is really fortunate for us to be rebirth with our previous memories intact." Said a girl, she had a beautiful long silky hair cascading like a black waterfall.

"I think we should start with introducing ourselves. We would be living with each other in the same body after all. We can't afford disputes mainly because we are 'one' person now" a lady with a heroic aura on her said

"I agree. It's a big blessing for us to be living again with all our memories intact. It might be really hard to get used at first. But I am sure we will be okay if we work together in this life. My name is Mei Yue. I am a clairvoyant. I work with white energies, I read tarot cards and I do astrology readings. I was the best in my country that even the ministers are seeking me for help at times." Mei Yue was wearing a red Qi Pao with phoenix embroidery on it.

It's almost like a wedding dress.

"Nice to meet you Mei Yue. I am Hua Mu Lan. I was a soldier..."

"Oh my GOOOOSH!!! Are you really the Mu Lan who became a man and fight in the battle field?!" The girl with silky black hair squeled.

"Umm... Yeah.. that's probably me..."

"I always thought you were a fiction. I am so happy met you here! I am a fan! Oh right... Hundreds of years had passed after you died, and your story was still being told. There are animations and movie based on your story!" She keeps on chattering non- stop.

Mu Lan smiled and said "yeah, I know. I can watch what happens in the living world while I wait to be reborn again."

"They had my story wrong a few times... Actually... I was not just a normal soldier. I was promoted and I had became a general but I guess they erased that from the history after I refused to marry the princess..."

The other four was flabbergasted at what she said.

"That's even more sensational!"

"Yeah. They should keep it in the records."

"May I ask how you died?" Suddenly a girl with a headphone and glasses asked.

"..."

"..."

"Umm... I think we better left the answer to that until later... I bet we are all died of unjust reasons. Thus we are getting this 'special' privileges to be reborn with our memories intact. So.. "

The mood suddenly turned sour afterwards.

"I died because I was hacking a top secret file in the army base... They tracked me to end of the earth just to kill me... Oh well... I was just playing with them but I guess I picked the wrong target to play with..." She talked in a relaxed manner as if it was not a big deal at all.

"Wow... So you are good with computers then?"

"Nothing can escape me as long as it was on the net"

"That's cool!"

"What about you? Oh wait. We all knew you are a doctor just by what you wear."

"I am Dr.Anna. I was the heiress to Grand Asia Group. My family was known for our mastery in both traditional and modern medicine and treatment."

"So... We had a doctor.. a clairvoyant.. a warrior.. a hacker.. and me... " Said the girl with a long silky hair..

"Oh, I am an artist if you need to know." She added cheerfully.

"I know you. You're Liu YuFei. You act as Mulan in the movie adaptation of disney's Mulan animation." The hacker girl said.

"Yes that's me. But it was a flop. I guess I should not said what I have said. Because I was killed exactly because of that. I bet my death made the movie Mulan much popular than it could ever did!" She said dejectedly..

"You're just a victim of human's greed. Its not your fault. Only those who died unjustly would ever get this chance we had right?" Mulan stepped up and console her.

"That's true. By the way, I am Shui. Or you all can call me by my nickname. Watergirl" the hacker girl said.

"Alright.. since we've known each other... How do we decide on how to live?" YuFei asked.

Just when Mulan was about to answer her, something happened. Suddenly there are a door and a big screen pops up.

They can see the big humans.. bigger than they had ever remembered in their memories.

"Is it just me or this doctor felt like he is so big?"

"What's that door is for?"

Suddenly the doctor's voice reverberates inside the empty space.

"She is not crying."

Then they all could feel the world are getting jumbled up side down..

"Oh gooshhhhh... What is happening" yufei screamed

Then by accident, mulan was thrown into the door by the force and suddenly they can hear the baby said.

"Be gentle please"

The doctor almost dropped her to the floor.

And they all screamed to mulan "baby cannot talk ... Cry mulan... cry"

Mulan understood. They cannot show to the others that they are different. She had learned what that differences could do to her. So in a split second she started to wail as loud as she can.

"Is it just my imagination when I heard the baby said be gentle?" The doctor asked the nurse beside her.

"Doctor.. I heard it too..." The nurse replied.

"Yeah.. me too..." The mother replied.

"... We are dead..." Is what the five of them think at that moment...
