Jamais Vu

Chapter 8: A Family Reunion Part 1

Commander: We are gathered here today because one of our team members has gone missing or has been kidnapped. We are still investigating.

Ycka: *scoffs* Who would want to kidnap a weakling like Onreifni?

Commander: Onreifni is a member of this team. I won't tolerate any belittling in his absence. We start our search around the city. He might still be around.

Onreifni had gone missing the night before, no one knew where he was. Team Naju spent the whole day searching and had no luck. That was until the next day that they received a call from the village of Argen. The call mentioned that someone with a black outfit and red stripes had visited them. They didn't recognize him because his face was covered by a hoodie. But he came and performed many miracles.

Commander: Could that be him? It doesn't sound like our uniform, plus the only reason we were called was because our team had been the only one to visit Argen in the past couple of years.

Jessachi: Yes that is a good point, but maybe *takes a pause to think* it could be one of his other personalities. We don't have any other leads so this will be our best chance.

Glorisa: I agree, I say we check it out.

Commander: Okay Jessachi and Ycka will head out to Argen to check out if Onreifni is there, the rest will stay here and try to look for more leads.

Glorisa was sad, she wanted to be with the group that went to look for Onreifni in Argen. The Commander picked Jessachi and Ycka because they already knew their way around the village. Jessachi and Ycka packed for their trip and headed out. Meanwhile, Onreifni was waking up in the middle of the forest unaware of what was going on.

Onreifni: Argh, my head! What the- where am I? Nove do you remember anything?

Nove: I remember we were chasing someone, a girl I think, - everything else is a blur.

Onreifni's stomach growls, although Onreifni and Nove had different minds they still shared the same body. It was well past breakfast, well more like past noon. Onreifni had no idea what day or time it was, he just knew that he had to eat something fast.

Onreifni: Nove, what do you want to eat?

Nove: Let's see, we have some bark, leaves, grass, and some branches.

Onreifni: Hahaha so funny, quit playing, and let's look for some food.

If someone was around they would think Onreifni was a mad man for talking with himself. Sharing a body isn't easy, especially with someone like Nove. They walked and walked until they arrived at a small town. The town looked somewhat familiar like they had already been there before, but none of the buildings looked familiar. Onreifni entered a bar to see if he could gather information.

Onreifni: Good day, can we- I mean can I get something to eat.

Bartender: This is a bar, not a diner.

Onreifni had to be careful when he was speaking now, he didn't want others to know about his multi-personality disorder. Onreifni couldn't decide on what to get so Nove stepped in and ordered a glass of orange juice.

Bartender: Orange juice? What are you 5?

The bartender joked about the orange juice but still served it. Onreifni chugged it down like a cold beverage on a hot summer day.

Nove: Ahh, that's the good shit. *slams cup on the table* Another one, please.

The bartender served him another 17 cups of pure orange juice and Onreifni drank all of them. That orange juice must've been really good for him to drink that many cups.
