Daniel Pierce sat at a bench in a courtyard at CLMU, listening to classical music. He wondered how bad his delusions would get before Kate, his favorite special agent witnessed him having an episode. You see, Dr. Daniel Pierce may have been a brilliant neuroscientist who worked as a professor at Chicago Lake Michigan University, helped the FBI with homicide cases, and even won the Davenport Award, but there was one other very interesting fact about Dr. Pierce, and that was that he had schizophrenia.

Daniel shook his head and turned up his music, hoping to get some reprieve from his thoughts. Everything seemed rather tranquil at the moment, sitting in an empty courtyard, listening to pleasant music, and Daniel smiled just a bit.

Then, a young boy walked into Daniel's view. The boy had raven hair, and wore a white and red shirt and blue jeans. Other than that, he couldn't tell any details about the boy, as he was too far from Daniel's seat on the bench. The boy was looking around at all the buildings, trying to take the campus in, however, the boy never noticed Daniel sitting on his bench. Then something odd happened. A bit of mist escaped the boy's mouth, though it wasn't that cold out. Then the boy looked around, again, not noticing Dr. Pierce, and a glowing white ring encircled the boy's waist. Daniel stared. This was most definitely a delusion, he decided, as the ring split into two, and traveled opposite directions along the boy's body, transforming him, before disappearing altogether.

The boy no had snowy white hair, and wore a strange black and white hazmat-looking suit. A large greenish blob joined the boy in Daniel's hallucination, though it had eyes and all other sorts of facial features. The boy scoffed, and launched a ball of neon green flame from his hand to the blob, sending it backwards. He then pulled out a metal cylinder that reminded Daniel of a thermos, and removed the cap. A blue light erupted from the cylinder, sucking the blob inside like a vacuum. The boy put the lid back on the thermos, and the white rings appeared once again, going up and down his body transforming him again, this time, into his original, much more normal-looking form. Daniel blinked a few times and tilted his head back. 'I need to start taking those pills again...' he thought, as he tried to recover from what must surely be his strangest hallucination yet.

The boy turned to face Daniel, finally noticing him, and the blood drained from his face. Daniel could now see that the boy had icy blue eyes, which were wide with shock. "Uh..." the boy started, "h-how much of that did you see?"
