Chapter 2: Scarlet's POV

"Unh…What the fuck…?" my head was hurting me like crazy. I reached up to touch it and felt bandages. I was in a clean white bed, wearing what looked like a hospital gown. But next to the bed, sleeping in a chair was a man in a green ninja suit. Looking around the room, I could see several other people in ninja suits; red, blue, white, black, aqua, and dark purple. There was also two other women, one had short black hair and was wearing a red dress and the other had long, light brown hair and she was in an electric blue dress similar to the red girl's own. I noticed she was identical to the blue ninja. The white ninja held a little sleeping girl in his arms and the dark purple one had an identical boy.

Where the fuck was I? Speaking of which…Who was I? Did I even have a name? Maybe these people were my family…? But which was my dad? Which was my mom? Were the rest my brothers and sisters? There was an old man sleeping with his head bowed…Maybe he was my dad. But everyone looked around the same age, excluding the old guy of course.

After considering for a while, I climbed out of the bed and suddenly realized there was an IV in my arm. I sighed and kicked the green ninja so he'd wake up.

His eyes opened lazily but when they saw me, they burst wide open. "Scarlet! You're awake!" he jumped up and hugged me.

So my name was Scarlet? Eh…I thought I'd be a Tina or maybe a Rose. "Um…Can you tell me where I am?"

"You're in the hospital. I'm so glad you're okay!"

I hugged back, but was still suspicious of my surroundings. "Uh…Who…Who are you?"

He pulled away slowly. "What do you mean…? Can't you remember me?"

I shrugged. "No,"

Suddenly the others in the room began to wake up and when they saw me their reactions were all the same as the green guy's own. "Do I know you all…?" I asked.

"Scarlet, it's us…Your team…" the guy in red said.

"I have a team…?"

They all exchanged glances, but mainly everyone stared at the green ninja who looked like he was about to pass out. "You…You don't remember us…?" he asked weakly.

"Sorry, no." I tried to be apologetic. "You all look familiar though." I was lying about that, they didn't look even a bit familiar, but I wanted to be nice.

"I'll go get the doctor." The girl in an electric blue dress left the room with the red ninja. "They must be together…" I thought.

The green guy stared at me and I glanced at him through the corner of my eye. What was up with him? Did he like me or something? Weren't we a little too old for the secret crush thing? Wait…How old was I anyway? "Uh…What are your names…?" I asked, breaking the silence.

"I'm April." A young woman with short black hair which had a light blue streak spoke.

"Cole," the guy in black mumbled.

"Angel," the dark purple girl then pointed down to a little girl in all pink. "This is my daughter, Justice." She pointed over to the little boy dressed in gray. "That's my son, Dexter and then that's my husband, Zane."

The guy in white waved.

"I'm Nya and the guy in red that just left is my brother, Kai. The girl in a blue dress is Jayleene-"

"My sister," the guy in an electric blue ninja suit finished. "And Nya's my wife; Jayleene and Kai are married too."

"I am Sensei Wu." The old man smiled, but he looked a little saddened.

I looked over to the green ninja. "Scarlet, it's me your boyfriend, Lloyd."

"Sorry, I don't have a boyfriend."

"Scarlet! For God's sake, quit messing around, it's me Lloyd!"

I tried my hardest to remember him but an intense headache came on, I grabbed both sides of my head and groaned, shutting my eyes tightly. Somehow tears escaped the prison of my eyes. "Unh…" I groaned, drawing my legs back into my chest.

"Do not stress your mind." Zane said to me.

It was like I was deaf, I couldn't hear his warnings. "Scarlet, I know it hurts but you have to try and remember me." Lloyd pleaded me.

I tried to regain my memory, but there was a loud, fast beeping coming from the machine that kept track of my heart. Suddenly two nurses burst in and ushered everyone out of the room quickly. I felt a piercing pain in my arm and I felt everything spin. The nurse had given me a shot. Whatever was in it made me pass out.

Lloyd's POV

The other nurse pulled me away from the group and spoke to me in private. "Lloyd, you can't tell Scarlet those sorts of things. Stressing someone's mind, especially when they have memory loss can be very painful. Did you see how upset she got? That stress causes extreme pain." The nurse explained.

"So…What am I supposed to do?" I asked.

"She has to stay in the hospital but you can do certain things to try and trigger her memory…Maybe pictures, things that she liked to play with…Anything that she used to cherish." I looked down, but the nurse touched my shoulder. "But until then, Lloyd…Don't try and force her memory back."

I looked up at the nurse. She looked only eighteen which was the age I was supposed to be, (remember the tomorrow's tea incident) with bright blonde hair, blue eyes and a peach creamy sort of skin tone. She was sort of like…Me. My eyes widened…I knew her somehow. If you met yourself in a parallel universe would the world explode?

I realized something. "Wait…How do you know my name?" I asked slowly.

"I-I…"

"You're not a real nurse…Are you?"

"I have to go." She bolted.

"Wait!" I tried to run after her, but she left my sight and I gave up. Who the hell was she? And why did she seem so familiar?

I put the question at the back of my mind and I went back to the group of the others. Visiting hours would be over soon, so we'd have to leave.
