It had been a relativly slow week in the S.F Legacy house.Relativly being one demon possesion and a haunting.Hardly quiet in some peoples opinion,but deathly quite in one persons opinion.That person being Nick Boyle.As an ex Navy SEAL and Legacy member,he was used to a lot more action.As the others were thanking their lucky stars for the peace,he felt liking he was going mad."Will you stop pacing,and help me with the research WE are supposed to be doing?"The angry voice belonged to Alex Moreau,who at first,thought the effect that the lack of action was having on Nick was amusing,but now,his restless pacing and general bordem was starting to play on her nerves."Sorry",he muttered,finally sitting down."I just get so----"
"Bored,yes I know",she filled in for him."Tell you what",she said taking pity on him,"if you help me with this research,it just might turn into a case"She watched as he absorbed this new information."What did you say the case was about?"he asked,quickly moving to his computer and calling up the information he had entered into it,BEFORE he had started pacing.Smothering a grin,Alex got back to the matter at hand."There's a suspected haunting at a house,just outside of town.Wails,groans,and the usual flying object routine".
"Well,I'll get right on it",Nick replied eagerly,typing commands into the computer.The sound of the holagram being passed through followed by an accented voice saying,"Actually Nick,we have a new case that needs our attention a little more",made Nick rethink his last statement.The words were followed by Derek,the precept of the SF house putting two folders in front of them."Rachel was called in to consult on a patient,and believes his case needs looking into.And after reading her notes,as well as the notes of the docter originlly assigned the case,I'm inclined to agree"
As usual,Dereks voice gave nothing away.As he opened the folder in front of him,Nick looked to Derek.
"Where is Rachel.She requested we look into this,I would have thought she'd be here"
"she was on her way,when she was paged.Apparently,the patient at the center of our mystery had some sort of incident.They didn't give her any details.She only had time to call and say she'd be late."
"Well then",Nick replied,obviously pleased at the prospect of a new case,"let's get started"
And with one last look at the amused smile on alex's face,and an eyeroll from Derek,Nick settled down to read his folder.

At the hospital,Rachel Corrigan was at her wits end."What do you mean he tried to escape?This is supposed to be a SECURE area".She looked at the man across from her.The look clearly said,'This had better be good'.
"It IS a secure area DR. Corrigan,that's why he only TRIED to escape.We caught him before he could,so there's no harm done".
Just then,his pager sounded."I have to take this,if you'll excuse me".And with that,he moved off to find a phone.
Rachel stood there,debating whether to go after him.She decided not to.She knew that Derek was briefing the others back at the island,so she decided to talk to her patient.As she moved to the room her patient was in,she thought of the others on the island,and smiled as she thought of the reaction Nick would have to news of a new case.She knew what it was like for HER when there was no action,she couldn't imagine poor Nick's reaction to being cooped up with no cases.She reached the room she was looking for,and the smile vanished.She adopted a blank face as she entered.The first thing she saw was her patient.He was about an inch taller than her,with jet black hair,that was quite short.She also noticed how nice he looked with the sun from the window streaming on his face.'Is that your medical opinion Doctor?'she asked herself.
She focused her mind on the reason for her visit.He was staring out of the window,his face unreadable."Mr.Young",she said quietly.He turned,and gave her a slight nod.She hadn't met him yet,she had only gone over his file."I suppose you're another Doctor",he said.It wasn't a question.She tried a light approach."Is it that obvious?"she smiled.
He looked at her again."No,but we are in a hospital,so......"He let the question trail off.
She answered him,"Yes I am a Doctor,a psychiatrist actually".
She saw a strange look pass over his face again,but decided to let it pass."So",she said,"What do you say we talk about your little escapade,huh?"His face closed off and Rachel sighed.It as going to be a long day.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Meanwhile,back on the island,Derek was filling the others in."A man by the name of Scott Young was addmitted to SF General,about a week ago.It appears he had some sort of mental breakdown".Derek was pacing as he talked.Nick followed him with his eyes."Why do you want us to investigate?",he questioned.Derek looked at him,debating whether to tell them now,or wait till they had the facts."I'll get to that in a minute,Alex?"he prompted.Alex looked up from the file she was looking at."According to this file,he claims that he is actually called,Jake Simpson,and that he died,ten years ago".Derek watched their faces,judgeing their reactions.Alex,as anticipated,looked intrigued,but cautious.The look on Nick's face was one of disbelief,tempered with interest."Is there any proof he is who he says he is?"Nick asked.As far as he had seen in the file he had flicked through,the guy was just nuts.One day a guy with pressure at work,gets up and decides he wants to be someone else.The only reason anyone knew anything,is because the parents got worried and admitted him."I don't get it.So this guy decides that Jake Simpson dosen't have the pressure that Scott Young has,and so he decides to be him.Why are we looking into it?"Nick looked at his precept,certain he knew something."Because,the man he is claiming to be,was a member of the legacy",Derek replied.'Oh'Alex thought,'so that's it'.Nick however,hadn't finished."I knew the name was familliar,isn't he the author of the journal you had me looking at the other day?".
Derek nodded."Of course",Alex said,"if it was just a breakdown,why claim he was dead".
"Exactly",Derek said.
"He was killed when a demon attacked a young woman who possessed an amulet that could potentially banish him.She survived the fist attack and contacted Simpson.He took the amulet but was killed before he told any of his collegues were he had put it.I had hoped there would be referance in his journal but Nick found none.
"So what do you want us to do",Alex asked Derek.
"I'd like you to do what you do best,Alex,he answered smiling.
"ahhhh",Alex replied,"I'll see what I can come up with".
"What do i do?" Nick asked.
Derek smiled at Nick."Well since you've read his journal,you might be able to offer Rachel some insight,so if you could go and join her at the hospital,it would help".
Nick was halfway to the door,before Derek had finished,oblivious to the smiles his friends exchanged at his eagerness.
