《Exceptional Normalcy (A Pokemon Fanfiction)》CH3 - Daily Life In A Hospital
Advertisement
It was now my second week in the hospital and Emely, the nurse which has helped me since my arrival, and I became quite good friends. //Well, I think that she sees me as a younger brother. Heck, she even treats me like one, not that I refuse this position. It feels great that someone makes me feel like I'm not a complete stranger with an unknown background, which I totally am, even to myself.//
Emely would use her lunchtime to talk to me and even found other people from the hospital to distract me. She was such a kind-hearted soul and it was really hard not to tease her for that, most of the time at least. The old lady from room 104, which was two doors to my right, always came into my room
and told my stories from her time as a trainer and golly was she an amazing person back then.
It seems that she once has beaten the champ, but refused to take on the title. She had released her team a long time ago and only kept one of the offsprings from one of them. It was a young Piplup and it was a little bundle of destructive joy. Always running around and 'accidentally' breaking something. It also really liked to cuddle.
There was also a pair of siblings in the room opposite mine. They seemed to be long-time occupants and know the hospital better than the staff. We often played hide and sneak on a grand scale with a few of the other kids in the hospital. All the children had to hide and the angry nurses and staff members were the seekers. What joy these memories bring me.
I don't want to talk about the food here, because you know...*shudder*...There was also quite the amount of pokemon employed here. Most of them being Fairy or Psychic type. Also a few fighting types as security. As I was relishing the memories of the last 2 weeks, I heard my door being opened and a middle-aged man in a lawsuit entering my room. I sat up in an orderly fashion and greeted the man with a smile on a face.

"Good morning, how can help you, Mr?" I took on a naive and questioning face. //Come on take down your defences. I am young, cute and cheeky. No one can
resist my charm.// It didn't seem to work and the asshat continued with his professional business smile.
"I presume you are the victim of the memory theft, yes?" Ouch, direct hit, it was super effective. My stature slumped and a depressing mood was coming in.
"Yes I am, thank you for the reminder. And I presume you are the one who has to work it out with me, yes?" //Yes, I was mocking him, judge me!// And it seemed, that my counter was as effective as I thought it would be. His smile looked a little bit more forceful and I could swear that I heard a little grumbling, something like "cheeky brat", but it could also have been my imagination.
"Yes, I am here to support you in your integration back into a normal life. Now please, help me to fill in this form." They were basic questions, Name, age, school career, future plans, allergies and on it went. //psst, a little hint, most of it was left blank.//
After 2 hours of this 'Tauros-dung', //I have learned so many new 'Bad' words while staying here.//
we both were mentally drained and a little more than annoyed. Well, at least we had something in mutual, our pure annoyance for my unknown past. We did a few medical tests and an affinity test for a variety of energy types, which corresponds with the different pokemon types. High affinity for both Ghost and Dragon and a normal one for Dark and Steel.
The good man then asked me in a stern voice, if I had any dealings with any evil organisations, at which I could only look at him blankly and question his intelligence. he also realised his blunder soon after and apologised for his remark. At least he didn't seem like a bad guy.

But it seemed like his worries were evidently within reason. The Types that Pokemon posses can also be found in human and it was recently discovered that such types do in fact influence the behaviour of the person. Ghost-types would make someone more mischievous and now put it together with Dark. Now you had a future villain in the making. Dragon would make someone a proud person who stands to his words and Steel-types are hard-headed and won't go astray from their chosen path.
//Let's just say that the combination doesn't work very well. But it IS perfect if you want to be someone like Giovanni or Cyrus or..., you know what I mean.//
But the record also stated that it wasn't to be true, only that it was more likely. He then left me with a tablet and showed me a program which was packed with tasks to fulfil. There was math, ethics, writing, logic, imagination. Everything that was normal for a test, but there was also pokemon theory, pokemon caring and and and. It was destined that I would fail that. He then left my room and told me to solve every task I could and that he would be back in 2 days.
I had to groan. //So back in school, it seems. Wait a minute, was I in school before?// And so my fight against schoolwork and the power of boredom went on.

The Polyglot's Rune
Fear. Regret. Memories. They all flashed before my eyes as my life began to fade away. I felt a darkness encroach upon my heart followed by a sinister foreboding. Within that moment I was asked a single question by a powerful, mystical being. “Brave being, do you wish to accomplish a great deed in your life?” “No,” I refused, but the voice did not listen. It summoned me to its world only to try to have me slaughtered. But then, I was saved by him, the princess who disguised herself as a man. He was hellbent on revenge, and he was determined to drag me down with him. This story is meant to be a bit of a mix of genres and cultures, so there are some elements that may seem xianxia like, but it's not exactly the same so I didn't tag it. It also has multiple lead characters but is written in first person. Schedule: Dropped Normal Chapter Length: approximately 3000 words Warning: Tagged [15+] for Strong Language and Violence (Gore and Profanity aren't very prevalent, but I added the warning tags just in case).
