The original Jeremiah rises from his hospital bed groggily groaning not in pain, but because he wasn't a morning person. His injuries nonexistent, a far cry from when he escaped from Darkness's clutches. In the sterile hospital room with a white wall in the Agency's Medical Wing, Jeremiah moves the covers aside and climbs out of bed immediately grabbing the attention of the nearby doctor performing some routine check-ups on another patient. He turns around and asks surprised, "You're fully healed, already?"

"Yeah, so?" asks a slightly annoyed Jeremiah.

"You shouldn't have healed that fast," states the confused doctor peering at his clipboard for a scientific explanation.

"If I was a normal human, then yes. But I'm citaloanin, also. Some Citalogs can heal faster than others. And don't you have other patients who heal faster than normal?"

"I see and yes. But, those patients don't heal nearly as fast as you did."

"I see."

"Well, you can go now."

"Ok. I'll try not to end up here again."

"Ok. Have a nice day."

Jeremiah leaves the hospital room and walks out of the Medical Wing into the gray hallway over to Head Spikey's office. He opens the door with a little squeal and greets Head Spikey upon walking in, "Hello Head Spikey."

"Weren't you just here, Agent Jeremiah?" inquires Head Spikey confused.

"You're thinking of my duplicate," replies Jeremiah.

"If that's the case, how did you heal so quickly?"

"I just explained that to a doctor. Just tell me where my duplicate is so I can refuse with him," Jeremiah demands annoyed at the notion of repeating himself.

"He's in the ship bay. I gave him or I should say you the day off. And a lot of people will probably ask the same questions I did or be confused."

"This power does have that effect on people."

"I see. You better go, then."

"Ok. Bye."

"Bye."

He left for the ship bay, hopefully.
