It had been the room she had shared with her sister most of her life. She looked around at all the things that had been who she was. The little girls who had slept in this room had been through so much. Changed so much. She turned and saw the small desk she had used to do homework at. Unexpectedly she was sitting at it, not child her, but adult her. [color=0080ff]”Uh. Hello?”[/color] The other version of herself looked up and smiled “Ah. You’re here. Finally. I’ve been trying to talk to you for a while. I suppose getting heavily drugged will make it so you can talk to your subconscious.” Niah blinked surprised at hearing her own voice. [color=0080ff]”What?”[/color] “Come on Niah you’re smarter than this. You’ve seen a lot. Done a lot. Where has your head been lately? You were paranoid about things that weren’t a threat and now the things that are a threat are knocking at your door and you got yourself hurt. You could have avoided this. You’re better than that and you know it.” [color=0080ff]”A lot has been going on.”[/color] Niah said defensively. [color=0080ff]”Which I’m sure you’re aware of. I’ve had a lot on my mind other than dealing with some vague threat.”[/color] “Rich coming from someone who probably would be the only reliable person to tell who is a Skrull or not. You have to pull yourself together. Stop focusing on the past. That’s what the whole bear situation was about. Your self-doubt made you afraid of doing the wrong thing. And the bear fed on your fear. You almost got yourself killed.” [color=0080ff]”I noticed. I was worried I was going to die anyway.”[/color] “Good thing you were in a hospital. Also, you’ll be different now.” [color=0080ff]”Different?”[/color] The double stood and tapped Niah’s chest. “Here. You have a lot of scars here, but you are healing. You can heal. You have to want to heal though. I have something for you.” The double’s hand went up to Niah’s forehead. “A dozen years of memories of a happy life. You have so many lives in your memory, don’t you? Two whole worlds and now I’ll give you the memories of the world you created.” A cool chill went through Niah from the point where her double’s hand touched all through herself. “And a warning. Don’t trust yourself. You’re kind of a dick.” [color=0080ff]”What?”[/color] “You’ll figure it out.” [color=0080ff]”You mean in another world. Like from where Dalisy had been?”[/color] “See you are smart. It is there, you can figure it out.” [color=0080ff]”Well, you’re kind of a jerk.”[/color] “You’re too worried about keeping the facade up. That’s why you’re the ego. Keeping things from going mad. You do a good job of keeping it all in check too. You were always trying too hard. Tried to be friends with Tinley before she got the stick out of her ass. When you were finally close with her she forgot and then she died. So you became scared and hurt. Everyone you had gotten close to had died horribly. You let it tear into your heart. You can’t save everyone. You can’t protect everyone and yet you still keep trying. I know that as soon as you get to the point where you are good in the field again you’re gonna go at it again. Just keep trying to save the world. You’re like Atlas, instead of the sky, you carry the world. You could have stayed, but you knew it was wrong so you fought and that’s all you do. Fight what you believe is wrong. Stand against injustices that you have no control over, demanding that control. Even when you step back you are cursed and something bad happens. That’s what you believe isn’t it?” Chills went down Niah’s spine. This double knew more about how her mind worked than she did. The Id. That’s who she was talking to. Her own subconscious. Not the superego, but the Id. She took a deep breath, one she realized might be unnecessary but completely reflex at this point. [color=0080ff]”You seem to know an awful lot.”[/color] “That’s because I see and know everything you do, but have time to think it over. You already know what I am.” [color=0080ff]”What am I supposed to do with this information? Why did you give me memories of the re-written world? Why tell me anything? Why now?”[/color] “Now, because you’re really unconscious and will probably handwave it as a wild hallucination brought on by the anesthesia. What you do with the information is up to and why is because you needed it. Next time you see your parents they are going to talk about stories you need to know. Also, it makes you the only person on the planet with three sets of memories all belonging to you.” Niah sighed. Her double wasn’t being very helpful, but she could at least work with it. [color=0080ff]”Alright. Now, what then?”[/color] “You wake up.” [hr][hr] [center] [img]https://i.imgur.com/RGqiibs.png[/img] [hr] [color=004d00]Location:[/color] Quinjet [color=004d00]Skills:[/color] [/center] [hr][hr] [color=004d00]"Nice first impression."[/color] Matt said shaking his head at Kwassi and then followed Bonnie and Cass toward medical. He didn't step in, but was standing nearby. He didn't want to crowd the area but wanted to be near Cass and make sure she was okay. [color=004d00]"Was that Niah and Oliver getting back to you? Are they okay?"[/color] He didn't like how long it had been since either group had checked in. They had no idea what Sparky was up to. [color=004d00]"Bonnie if I can help with anything let me know."[/color] He didn't have much medical knowledge, but he could get things for Bonnie if she needed anything grabbed. Too bad his paralytic power didn't work on Folly, if it did he could keep her still while Bonnie reattached her arm. A ghost of a smile crossed his features as he thought about how ridiculous this whole situation actually was.
