Mai took a deep breath to dispel her fear a bit when the corridor turned noisy as the sound of wheels scraping the tiled floor reached her ears. Making sure that her heart was prepared, she carefully turned her head to the side but rather than a ghost, what she saw was a hospital bed being pushed by four people. The situation couldn't have been anymore clearer, she was seeing someone's memory.
She saw Gene walking from the corner of her eyes just as the room swirled and she found herself lying down on something soft and something was covering half of her face while the world was moving so fast around her. Still, the scraping sound persisted. She opened her eyes just as Gene passed by her line of vision and realized with shocking dismay that she was the one lying down on the hospital bed and the object covering her face was an oxygen mask.
She tried to move but her limbs hurt. They were entering a room and there were medical apparatus everywhere she looked. There's an operating table in the center flanked by several small tables with equipments while nurses began to move about.
"Okay, we'll start. Is everything ready?" The doctor adressed to them.
"Yes, doc."
"Give her the anesthesia."
What's this? What's going on? I'm so scared.
"She's having a seizure!"
Gene, Please, help me.
As if her will summoned the medium, Gene approached the bed and looked down at her with the gentlest expression on his face. Her heartbeat calmed down as the people around her stopped shouting.
Gene, what am I doing here?
The medium leaned down and gripped her hand. "Don't worry. It's not your time, yet."
Not my time?
Mai looked at him with confusion but before she could ask him to explain, her vision darkened once again.

Thank you for those who reviewed. As you've guessed, what Mai dreamed wasn't entirely a dream but she had an out of the body experience and it wasn't anyone's memories or experience but her own and you'll soon find out why on the next chapter.
