—You are at the hospital. People found you unconscious on the street and the emergency personnel brought you here.— The nurse replied to the girl's question.

—Oh, but don't worry, you are perfectly fine as far as we could see. There's literally no reason for why you fell unconscious and I know that might seem stupid when a doctor is, but, it's a mystery.— The old and short man shrugged yet gave a weak smile to the girl.

—I.... I see...— The girl tried to assimilate all of that, but not even herself knew why she'd be unconscious there at all. She couldn't remember anything.

—Uhm... Do you have family? What is your name? What were you doing before falling unconscious? We don't have any information about you so far.— The nurse asked and those many questions made the girl's eyes tear a little.

« Who are they?... Who I am?... Why I can't remember anything? What should I do? » The pink haired tried and tried with all her heart to remember anything, something about her. She wanted to at least realize why she was in the hospital, what was she doing before this, if she had family, if she had a name... But nothing, there was nothing.

—I-I...— The girl sobbed. —I don't know....— After her reply, tears flowed down her cheeks as she started to cry. The nurse and doctor looked at each other without knowing very well what to do, it was a desolating situation.

—O-oi... C-come on, don't be sad, at least you are perfectly fine, in fact, you have one of the healthiest statistics I have ever seen!— The doctor tried to cheer up the girl, he was used to give familiars bad news and after his many years of experience seeing someone crying didn't affect him that much. However his method for trying to soothe and calm the girl was totally wrong and didn't work at all.

—I'm alone... I don't even know my name...— The girl continued crying for a while, the less she wanted to know at that moment is about how healthy she was.

—You know that crying won't solve anything, right? What if you rest here a little? You can take your time, eventually the answers will come to you.— The nurse smiled and petted the pink haired, what eventually managed to calm down the girl in despair. Slowly the pink haired stopped to cry, still with a crestfallen and sad expression she nodded and looked at the bed.

—I know it is not an easy situation and I wish we could give you answers, but you are the only one that can. Maybe after a few hours resting everything will come back to you.— The nurse added.

—R-really?...— The poor confused girl replied with a bit of hope, slightly raising her head and gazing at the older woman.

—Of course. And if it doesn't work, I'm sure that taking a little walk outside will make you see places that might give you memories, or perhaps meet with people that knew you.—

—I see... Thanks...— The pink haired nodded slightly and tried to calm herself. It was true that she didn't know anything about her past, personality, or those persons over there. But at least she could be a bit possitive about this all, right? She didn't forget how to talk with others. She didn't forget either that the persons in front her were a doctor and a nurse, unknown ones, but at least theorically wanting to help her.

—We will come to check for you tomorrow, okay? Until then just try to calm or even get some rest.— The big nurse moved away from the patient's bed and she glanced at the doctor as if needing an approval. The old man just sighed and nodded.

Both nurse and doctor decided to leave the room, or rather, the nurse was kind of pushing the doctor outside of it as if she'd be an unbreakable and unstoppable cart, then the door closed. Only silence remained, the pink haired could hear people around her in other rooms and outside at the corridor when she addapted to that fake silence.

The amnesic girl lied back on the bed and closed her eyes, she tried to focus into remembering something, literally anything she could remember about herself would be really appreciated in that situation. All what passed around her mind were merely knowledge she had, images of her city, maps, the island... All of these were rather general concepts and none seemed to be a hint about her, she didn't remember a particular house or place that seemed simbolic at all.

Her eyes slowly closed again, it wasn't tiredness despite the supposed time being in comma, it was merely a lack of interest in everything around. Another tear went down her left eye and she eventually fell asleep, quietly dozing...

Upon reopening her eyes, the girl was no longer in the hospital... She was in some kind of forest? —Where.... Am I?— She thought aloud and got up, looking around, everything was dark and gloomy, the trees had strange forms and some of them even seemed to have scary sad or angry faces on them.

There was a path scarcely illuminated by the full moon's light... Or rather, the three of them that there was in the sky, as if three shiny orbs forming a triangle between their distance and being the only light of that weird place. Even if the pink haired was frightened by her situation, staying there would not help at all so she decided to advance through the path that had no trees at all, trying her best not to look at her surroundings.

Walking and walking through that gloomy forest the frightened girl reached to a big and giant lake, there was a small floating island around ten or more meters over the lake's water, many geometric figures were floating around said island forming some kind of barrier.

—This place... I don't remember it...— She made the comment while observing at the floating island and the many geometric signs that were flying around its border, creating a barrier. That place was so mysterious and calling the attention that she wanted to approach it yet she heard a growling noise behind her. Quickly turning and jumping backwards the girl almost slip with the border of the shore and fell to the lake.

Perhaps she should have fallen into the lake after all, in front there was a big black wolf of red eyes. A scary one that had big claws and fangs. The pink haired's legs trembled, she was paralyzed by the fear. The beast quickly pounced towards the girl, but not really going after her, instead, it quickly positioned itself behind the pink haired, then jumped and with its hinder legs the black wolf kicked her away from the lake, brutally making her fly a few meters away from the lake.

The girl fell on her back and she could notice how the ground and some stones bruised her skin, it was hurtful and she could even see a remain a bit of blood on the ground in front of her, when she tried to get up the big wolf pounced onto her again, pressing her to the ground with the forepaws and then beginning to bite on the pink haired's stomach... It was a bloodbath as the beast opened the girl's belly easily and began to feast with her inner organs.
She could do nothing but feeling an immense pain and how her vision was becoming blurry, eventually her hands and feet got cold and... She saw herself leaving her own body. A minute later she was standing on a side, terrified, witnessing how her upper body was being devoured by the beast yet at least she didn't feel any pain anymore.


Still, this scene was deadly scary, the pink haired didn't even know if she was dead already or if this was a really bad nightmare or what, she just kept looking at her body...
