*BIP... BIP... BIP...*
The two women who were still beside his bed stopped their conversation and stared in disbelief at the heart monitor.
"Something is happening! His BP is rising! Check the electrodes!" Said Nancy while resetting the heart monitor. The intern removed the blanket and got to work.
"Electrodes are good"
"Heart Monitor too, his BP is still rising. We need the doctor on call, now!"

'FINALLY! I DID IT!' Nathaniel exclaimed joyfully, looking at the rumble of the wall that kept him trapped for all those years.
But something kept nagging in his mind, something was not right. Looking around he finally spotted something that did not belong there. Within is body a second ball of light similar to himself was there, but it was different from him. Where he was pure white, the other ball was completely crimson and radiated a sharp coldness and killing intent. That's where a realization hit him.
'that ball is trying to take my body!'
Gathering his soul once again, Nathaniel threw himself at the red ball of light. Upon collision, sparks flew and the red ball was pushed back some distance away.

While the nurse and the intern outside were working hastily to control his vitals, suddenly the light in the room starts to flicker.
"No please, not now! Not a power failure now!" Exclaimed the nurse in distress.
*****
"WHO ARE YOU? AND WHY DO YOU WANT TO TAKE MY BODY?" Yelled Nathaniel at the crimson ball.
That was so unjust, now that he could come back someone wanted to steal his body. However he learned something about the crimson ball when he struck it, it was a person, that ball was a he. When they touched, it was like a part of him resonated with that ball. That scared him a little.
"What the f*** are you talking about kid! I don't even know where I am for f*** sake!" Angrily replied the crimson ball.
"We are in NY and this is my body" Says Nathaniel, his anger diminishing.
"I don't know what happened, I died on my last mission and now i'm here. I just saw a light and I followed it, thinking it was paradise and I ended up here."
"That's weird. My name is Nathaniel, what is yours?"
"Marc and for f*** sake kid don't be that guileless. I could lie just to steal your body!" Exclaimed Marc fiercely.
