This is first time writing fic; I need to let you all know that I'm not a very good writer since my grammar and vocabulary isn't very strong plus update might be slow due to my work. However I hope you all will enjoy this fic. I kinda like Delsin and Sebastian pairing so I thought of writing a story about them. Delsin's big bro is a police while Seb's a detective. Perfect match.

A month had passed since the Beacon Asylum incident, everything went back to normal. Everyone had gone back to their normal lives, works etc. putting that terrible memories behind them. All except Sebastian. Ever since he was hospitalized for 2 weeks, he had been bothered by the polices, doctors and the media for 24/7 as he was being questioned and surveillance like some sort of a criminal or mental patient until he got extremely fed up. Unable to bear with this stress, he secretly discharged himself from the hospital and ran back home.

The next day, he got a morning call from the hospital, informing him that they were going to fetch him back for check-up. And Sebastian, without even thinking twice, left. Evading them once again. But they were persistent and kept coming back for him.

In the end, he decided to head for a place where no one would find him and leave him in peace.

*************
He waited patiently at the train station, bound for a countryside destination. He had an uncle living there, in a quiet farmhouse.

2 days ago, he explained to his uncle, Wiliam, about his current situation through a phone. His uncle then suggested that Sebastian should come over and live with him till things calm down.

Sebastian, while waiting for the train, helped himself a newspaper from a stand and reads quietly. Just then a toy ball rolled over to his leg. He looked and saw a boy about 6-7 years old running towards him. He instinctively picked up the toy and passed it back to the child, smiling in return.

"Thank you," the child gave his thanks and ran off. As Sebastian glimpsed the back of the child's head, he immediately covered his mouth in shock. The head was partially blown off and the brain was somewhat exposed. From the wound, he could tell from the wound it was from a gunshot at point-blank. The next thing he knew, the ghost child faded away before his eyes.

Sebastian rubbed his eyes.

(Not again….) he thought to himself. Ever since that dreadful incident and his escape from Ruvik's clutches, he suddenly developed new abilities. The ability to see things that can't be seen by others and being able to communicate with them. Even more worrisome to Sebastian was the fact he sometimes seemed to be able to move things with his mind back at the hospital that scared some of the nurses.

He wasn't sure if Ruvik cursed him with it or transferred part of powers to him before disappearing. Nevertheless, he was glad that apparition was gone for good. But because of these abilities he had in his present state, the doctors got so interested in him that they kept pestering him to do experiments here and there.

"Can you move this? Can you move that?" those were the same phrases that they asked him over and over again. Even his colleagues back in Krimson Police Department feared him.

Every time when he asked them something politely, they either gave him excuses or walked off in hurried steps while looking back at him and whispering among themselves.

During lunch, none of them dared to sit near or share a table with him. Sebastian knew clearly they were all avoiding him due to his so-called newly developed gift. During most of the break times he simply headed to the nearby park. He ate his lunch while sitting in the shade of a large tree. As children fed the ducks and sunlight suffused in the water, Sebastian pondered the origin of his strange new gift. Sometimes he didn't think at all, or retraced his mind to musings of his former family. Most of all, he preferred to be stared at by hundreds of pigeons to catching that over-the-shoulder look by his colleagues.

He hated that. He never asked for this. He quietly took out his wallet and looked at a small photo. In it was him and his two partners, Juli and Joseph. It was taken a month back before the Beacon incident. Sebastian looked at the photo and remembered that very day; it was an evening after work. It was as if he was back at that moment, with the sounds of rollercoasters, children's laughter and the scent of popcorns and cotton candy in the air. Joseph and Juli both dragged him along to the amusement park to cheer him up. They went to a Horror House and the end result was both Sebastian and Joseph came running out while Juli laughed at them.

He chuckled a bit. But the very things he missed the most was his long-time partner, Joseph, his only friend and the one who understood him. Sadly he was unfortunate; he never made it out alive with him. Sebastian was the only lone survivor.

If it wasn't for Kidman, Joseph will still be alive. He remembered Juli shot his best friend right in front of him during the crossfire. She tried to kill Leslie but ended up killing Joseph instead when he tried to stop her.

Now he knew Kidman was working for an organization who called themselves Mobius and she vanished into the thin air just like Leslie. Sebastian recalled seeing the albino boy leaving Beacon Mental Hospital before that annoying headache occurred. When he recovered, Leslie was gone. He didn't know if it was just his hallucination or Ruvik himself.

He didn't know since everything he cherished and the clues he found faded into memory and records.

Now Joseph no longer by his side, he was all alone. However if he ever found Kidman, he will make sure she'll paid the price for what she did regardless she was once part of the team.

"You're just like me. Forever alone. All by yourself," Ruvik's voice echoed in his mind.

"No, I'm not like you," Sebastian mumbled as he placed his hand on his head. "I'm…different."

Sebastian stared out to the scenic view outside the compartment car. It's going to be a long ride, approximately a day. He watched others like friends and families walking past the compartment he's in.

After half an hour, the rest of the compartments were filled with people except his. He was entirely alone in his own reserved seat and didn't seems to be bothered by it anyway. Instead he was glad as he had the entire compartment all for himself.

Soon the train left for its destination. Since it was going to be a long ride from the city to the countryside, Sebastian decided to take a good rest.

He buttoned his trench coat. Using his backpack as pillow, Sebastian laid down on the comfy seat and dozed off.

He woke up and rubbed his sleepy eyes. He looked outside and saw it was already nightfall. Stretching his arms, Sebastian suddenly longed for a cup of hot coffee. He got up and left his compartment, he headed straight for the café car.

As he walked down the corridor, he began to notice something was amiss. The lights were dim, flickering a little and awfully quiet. No sound or anything. Sebastian started to feel a bit uneasy as he found himself walking slowly and cautiously step by step.

(Maybe the passengers are asleep…) he tried to convince himself.

He stopped on his track and stared towards the corridor. He somehow got a queasy feeling that the corridor seems to be summoning him to an unknown awaiting darkness. He wasn't sure if he should forget about his hot drink, headed back to the compartment and stayed there till his destination.

However he chose to proceed forward. As he walked past compartment by compartment, he realized all were strangely empty.

(Where did everybody go? I can't possibly overslept…) he quickly checked his watch to see it was only 9pm.

"It's still early," he glanced out of the train window and could see the street lamps at the distance as the train passes. When he slid opened the door to the café car, it was empty. Not a single person at all. He then went ahead to check on the washroom, it was empty too.

Feeling something wasn't right at all, Sebastian persisted on investigating. He ran to check on the coach, parlor, lounge, dining and lastly the observation car but to no avail. The entire train was completely deserted. Sebastian was the only person left.

"What's going on?" he looked around. He felt dread welling up in his chest as he hold himself tightly to calm down. It was the very same feeling he had when he was captive at 'that' place.

"This is must be a dream," he closed his eyes and shook his head, trying to wake himself up from this nightmare or hallucination. He slowly opened them to see things still remained unchanged. With no option left, he instinctively checked on the train blueprint map.

Only the power car was left unchecked. He decided to head straight for it as fast as he could. Praying and hoping that someone would be there since the train was still moving on the track.

"Someone be there, please!" he opened the door and went in. To his relief, he saw a man sitting at the corner shrouded in the shadows.

(Thank god!) Sebastian quickly paced to the stranger's side. As he got closer, Sebastian noticed he was wearing a brim hat, a black trench coat and holding a walking stick.

"Excuse me?" he stood beside him. The stranger slowly looked up to him. From his face, Sebastian could tell he's in his 60s or maybe older.

"Umm," Sebastian tried to speak. "Are you alone here? Do you know where everybody has gone?"

The stranger just smiled. "You're finally here. I was waiting."

"Excuse me?"

"I was waiting for you," he repeated again.

Sebastian looked confused.

"Do…do…I know you?" he asked.

"No you don't," the stranger got up from his seat. He was unusually tall and towering over Sebastian that the detective had to look up at him. He felt small in his presence.

"The name's Guillermo, Doctor Guillermo. A pleasure to meet you, Sebastian Castellanos."

Sebastian immediately backed a few steps away from him. "Who are you? How do you know my name?"

"Why the newspapers of course. You're the lone survivor of the Beacon Incident and you had become quite the centre of attention for the doctors, media alike. Sebastian Castellanos, aged 38, developed psychic medium abilities after the incident. Interesting."

"I don't know what you're talking about…" He was still somewhat reluctant to acknowledge the 'gift' he now possessed.

"Still refuse to accept what you're now?" Guillermo sighed. "Such a gift given to you and yet you shunned it."

Sebastian stayed quiet as he continued to keep an eye cautiously at the strange doctor.

"You're becoming like him," he observed him. "You know who I'm referring to."

"Where are the passengers?" Sebastian diverted the topic. "What did you do to them?"

Guillermo put his hands behind his back and licked his lips. "They were quite an exquisite delicacies."

Immediately knew what he meant, Sebastian covered his mouth in disgust. "You….ate…them?"

The doctor just grinned evilly.

Sebastian gritted his teeth, quickly turned and ran out of the power car.

"You both are the same. There's no mistake," Guillermo shouted.

Sebastian, not wanting to hear this anymore, quickly covered both his ears and ran as fast as he could. Guillermo just kept his calm as he tapped his walking stick and went after him.

"Let's play cat and mouse, shall we?"
