Something didn’t feel right. Yuber noted silently to himself as the black knight realised that his body was not only feeling far too sluggish, but it also seemed as though he was waking up from some form of sleep. That in itself was a rather odd occurrence considering the fact that he simply did not sleep; not even during his time in the World of Emptiness.

The last thing he remembered was the flare of pain that spiked through his shoulder as that filthy human successfully managed to get their weapon past his guard. The mere thought behind the reason of his defeat was enough to cause even his sluggish mind enough annoyance to waken. How could that mere mortal dare not only to entertain thoughts of attacking him but actually manage to land a successful blow on his body? It was a mistake that he wouldn’t allow to happen even again.

Slowly both eyes blinked open; their pupils dilating for a moment before the bright lights flooded his vision causing them both to recede. This certainly wasn’t the World of Emptiness; that much Yuber was positive about and if left the dark knight wondering if his defeat hadn’t actually triggered his return back to his own realm.

A white ceiling presented itself before his vision and the sight left Yuber frowning in confusion. Pushing himself up he sighted the odd attire that seemed to be covering his body instead of the elegant black suit he’d been wearing before his awakening. Had he somehow been captured by those from the alliance? That was a thought which seemed far too humiliating to bear. Although it could be the only reason behind not only the state of his clothing but also that blacked out gap in his memory; that didn’t make sense though. Outside of Pesmerga and a small group of other True Rune bearers; he doubted that any other being would hold enough knowledge on what he was to cause such an affect.

“Glad to see that you’re awake Mr. Emerson.” The nurse called from the door way.

Yuber’s attention slid down along the wall until it came to rest of the small female by the door. She was a pretty thing; blonde hair and tied it neatly into a bun, her bone structure pleasing to the eye and along with the dainty figure she was in possessive with Yuber held no doubt that this female would be rather popular with other human males.

“You’re referring to me?” He asked; eyebrow rasing up in question while the black knight casually leant back on the mattress. There didn’t seem to be anyone else in the room other than the two of them which lead the knight to believe that it was him who the nurse had been addressing.

The pleasant demeanour hovering around the nurse remained and from what Yuber could tell; there wasn’t even a break in expression as the female responded without missing a beat. “Yes Mr. Emerson, you’re name is Sebastian Emerson. We’re on a bit of a tight schedule this morning so if you’ll just follow me down to the cafeteria for breakfast; I’ll answer any questions you might have about your transfer here to Landels after you’ve had something to eat.” The nurse explained before taking a step to the side and gesturing to the opened door. “Now if you just follow me we can be on our way.”

There was no doubt in Yuber’s mind that something definitely wasn’t right and though he loathed to admit it he was left confused. “Ah yes how forgetful of me.” Pushing himself up off the bed Yuber made a small show of patting down his clothing as if he was ridding himself of dirt. Satisfied with his effort the black knight finally made his way over to where the nurse stood by the door. “Please lead the way then.” Yuber asked shortly before following the nurse out of the room.

Yuber held no clue as to why she was addressing him as ‘Sebastian Emerson’ but if it’s a game this female wants he would play along for now… At least until he figured out exactly what was going on.
