Chapter 3: CHAPTER-3
Noah's bedroom.
Bright sunshine shone through the open window as Noah's eyes fluttered open.He saw the white ceiling above and found himself surrounded by medical equipments of all kind.
He could not move any part of his body except his eyes.
'So I am still alive huh?' Noah wanted to dance in joy but his body said no, so he tried to recall what happened before he lost consciousness.
'Got attack by a unown, all my limbs were broken, blood loss, almost lost my vision, legs mysteriously healed, found the hidden room and the text, somehow escaped with all those injuries,Got saved by Jake. Yeah that's about it I think.'Noah still felt the phantom pain from his legs.
'My eyes are still blurry, looks like I need glasses from now on.' Noah did not feel anything about his vision because he also wore glasses in his previous life.
'Damn, this is irritating my face.' Noah did not like the feeling of wearing a oxygen mask.
At this moment he saw a faint outline of a something like a street lamp on his side.
It seems to be spinning???
'Litwick evolved?' Noah was suprised and used his eyes as much as he can but he still couldn't see him.
Lampent maybe realising this floated towards his trainer's field of vision.
'Fuck, it's so blurry.' Noah cursed in his mind.
At this moment the door swung open and a doctor alongside Jake rushed into his room.
Jake seeing Noah is awake said with annoyance:"You fucking buffoon what were you thinking when going deeper into the ruins."
'Fucking buffoon? That's new.' Noah chuckled in his mind.
Jake continued berating him to which Noah closed his eyes as if he was going to rest.
Jake gritted his and curled his fingers into a fist ready to punch Noah.
'Wait, this guy hasn't fully recovered yet I will be pressed charges for murder, after he is okay I will beat the shit out of him.' Jake stopped and after thinking really hard about it he decided to leave the room.
Noah opened his eyes and saw Jake leaving and close the door.
He then looked towards the doctor, the poor dude wanted to stop Jake but was scared upon how he acted right now.
He seemed to be in his sixties with small tuffs of white hair on his head, he was a bit fat and looked like a kind old man.
He checked Noah's pulse, heartbeat and other stuff which Noah did not even know existed.
After a few minutes of inspecting Noah's state the doctor stepped back and wiped his sweat with a towel.
'Why is he sweating? He barely did anything.'
Noah did not voice out his opinion because he does not want end up in the newspaper.
'Yeah, after years of reading books, watching T.V shows and anime I can confidently say kind looking guys are psychopaths in secret.'
Noah wasn't the sharpest tool in the box.
"You have to rest for atleast 13 days, and don't eat any hard food." The doctor told Noah and left the room to speak with the manager.
Unlike others who would be happy to be still alive, Noah frowned on hearing what the doctor said.
'13 days what even am I supposed to do?' He racked his brain to find something that can keep him entertained.
__________________________________________
Noah watched the new T.V his manager got for him while using lampent to switch the channel.
A week has passed since he stayed in this room and he was losing his mind.
'But hey, I can now move my arms and legs albeit only slow movements.' He was inwardly happy on his progress.
The oxygen mask was not on him no more, to which he thanked Arceus for 2 days.
He was given the option of using contact lenses or glasses. He chose the glasses without hesitation.
There was also the possibility of surgery but he did not like the idea of giving away his body parts and replacing it with some stranger's organs.
Lampent was his main servant who somehow knows what's going on in his mind.
Right now lampent was spinning around in corner of the room.
'Well everyone has a hobby.' Noah was now fully familiar with his Pokemon's wierd antics.
'6 more days to go.' He closed his eyes and lampent stopped spinning and turned off all the lights.
Everyone has already went to sleep and Noah was the only person whose lights were still on.
After a few minutes Noah opened his eyes and he thought in annoyance,'why can't I sleep peacefully.' Noah did not have insomnia but it took him a lot of time for him to fall asleep in his previous world and naturally this one.
'Wait maybe I do have insomnia.' He came to a conclusion in his mind.
'Nah can't be possible.' After thinking hard for a few seconds he rejected that idea.
He saw a faint purple light in the corner of his room. He turned his head towards the corner to check it out.
There he saw his lampent spinning around with a faint light on it's lamp head implying that it is sleeping.
'Does that count as sleep walking? Or sleep floating?' He chuckled in his mind for his horrible humour.
There is a reason for him to have few friends in his previous life.
He kept on thinking about different stuff and did not notice the passing time.
'Come to think of it, I never considered my reincarnation to be an hallucinations like others.'
'Wait, what if this was a social experiment?'
'I did not feel much about dying too, maybe they made me feel like that?'
'Maybe some advanced civilization kidnapped me and put me in some kind of advanced civilization stuff to make me hallucinate.'
'Maybe, they are airing this through out their entire planet or solar system.'
'That would be scary and humiliating.' Noah shuddered thinking about the possibility.
'Nah I gotta stop thinking like this or I am gonna have an existential crisis.'
Noah changed his train of thoughts to what happened with the unowns.
'Anyways, what in the actual fuck were those letters trying to do?'
'Mocking me by calling me ordinary?'
'Or do they have a deeper meaning?'
'In the games I did not give much thought into them considering they were useless. But are they hiding something?'
Excitement burned in his heart and a small smile appeared in his face.
'This is exactly why I like ancient history and myths, they are so mysterious and sometimes they mean nothing to our life, but still the excitement of uncovering ancient secrets is dopamine to my brain and I am addicted to it!'
'So in this huge world with beings that can destroy time and dimensions with a thought wouldn't the secrets here because more interesting?'
'This is my goal to find and discover everything that happened in the past, maybe even about that thing called ordinary.'
'Of course I should not mess with things that human minds can't comprehend.'
Noah's internal monologue about his goals and ambitions were cut off by the sunlight that came from the open window.
'Fuck it's morning already?' Noah cursed in his mind and saw that lampent has woken up.
