Two Worlds VI

I sat on the chair, holding my chin in my hands as I thought. Jack had went to get something to eat. I couldn't believe I still wasn't with them. What had I done wrong? I had went through everything. I had went through my memories, I had faced my worst one, why wasn't I waking up?

I looked at my body on the bed, still connected to everything. I shook my head slowly and looked away.

"Morning," Someone said, coming into the room, and I looked to see a scrawny kid in bell bottom jeans a baggy shirt and a scarf tied around her head to hold her hair. I got up slowly as she started changing an IV bag.

"You're not a nurse," I said, and watched as she started changing everything out, "Hey!" I yelled, trying to get her attention, "Don't touch me!" She felt my body's forehead and she was humming slightly, "Stop that! Get out of here!" I went to her and tried getting her back, but I just went through her.

She shivered and shook it off, "Little chilly in here," She said, and got the clipboard, "I'll get that changed for you."

I looked at her in disbelief and she looked at my body from the clipboard.

"What?" I asked, looking at her worriedly, "What are you looking at me like that for?"

"I'll be back," She put the clipboard down and left the room.

I went to the clipboard and tried to pick it up. My hand went through it and I growled slightly, kneeling down to try and see what she saw. Nothing.

"Son of a bitch," I looked away from it slightly and got up when a doctor came into the room.

They checked everything and the kid stood back, holding her arms.

"You're right, Ms. Harley," The doctor said, looking at her, "I'll inform her friends."

They left and the kid, Harley, looked at my body then started leaving. I went to go after her, but then decided to stay with my body just in case.

"So what you're saying is, she's getting better, but you still don't know if she's going to wake up." Jack said to the doctor as I stood with him, the doctor, Vincent and Guy out in the hall.

"We won't be able to know for sure if she is going to wake up." The doctor told them, "It isn't impossible, but in most cases, it isn't the norm."

"I can't believe this," I put a hand to my forehead and rubbed it, "Jack, I'm right here!" I got in front of him and he just looked down, "Get someone to get me back into my body!" I looked at Vince, "You're a medium! Can't you see me?" I waved my hand in front of his face, "Guy?" I looked at Guy and he was looking into the room.

I breathed out heavily and went to Guy, putting a hand near his shoulder, then putting it down gently. When I felt his shoulder under my hand I gasped slightly, taking it away as I slipped through his shoulder. He put a hand to his shoulder and rubbed it, looking around. I looked from my hand back to him and he just looked down, then back into the room sadly.

"Thank you," Jack said, and the doctor left.

"What are we going to do?" Guy asked, turning to the others. I looked at them as well, wanting to know.

"I don't know." Jack said.

"Let's go get something to eat, then we can come back here and find out what our next case is." Vincent said, and Guy nodded slightly.

"Is that what you've been doing? Cases and eating? Thanks," I slumped my shoulders slightly and watched as they started leaving, "You bastards."

I looked around and looked down the hall to see someone looking at me from around a corner. They went back around the corner.
