Chapter 1: Nameless

Resurgam was buzzing with activity as emergency calls were brought in. Today was one of the busier days for the staff but nothing they couldn't handle.

Dr. Maria Torres was assisting Dr. Erhuard Muller in surgery. It was a patient she had brought in.

Young boy, about 12 years of age if she had to guess. Bright red hair, pale skin and purple eyes. He was in a car accident with his parents. Poor kid had gotten thrown from the car through the windshield and ended up getting shrapnel pierced in his chest along with a head injury. However… he was lucky he was alive unlike his parents.

Going to be hard to tell him they aren't around anymore. Maria thought as she handed Erhuard the next tool he needed.

Erhuard worked with speed and precision removing the shrapnel from the boy's heart. Some were small and some were huge but nothing he couldn't handle. He was able to remove all of them in a good amount of time.

"Dang those suckers really got in there." Maria commented looking at the pieces in the tray she was holding.

Erhuard nodded.

"Fortunately there was only a few…"

He did a quick ultrasound on the heart to check for anything he might've missed or couldn't see.

No sign of blood pools or any other shrapnel and vitals are stable.

"Alright, all pieces have been removed, let's close him up, sutures."

Erhuard began closing the incision. He looked at the boy's face with concern. Maria had told him both of his parents were dead on sight when the EMTs had gotten there. The hospital would take care of him for a bit but then after that… only time would tell where he would go.

oooooo

While the operation had been going on, Dr. Gabriel Cunningham was busy helping the nurses with other patients that were in the accident and getting paperwork filed on each of them. Two victims of the accident however were giving him trouble.

Both were dead and he was able to ID them by their driver's licenses. Jacques and Marlene Jameson. The part that was frustrating him was he couldn't ID the kid that was in the car with them. Maria was sure they were the kid's parents but the fact he couldn't find records was bugging him.

He was currently in his office searching through files on his computer with RONI assisting him in the process.

"RONI, find anything under Jacques and Marlene Jameson?" Gabe asked, running a hand through his hair looking at the, machine's screen.

"I have not Doctor. The hospital has no record of Jacques and Marlene Jameson having a son, nor does any other hospital nearby."

"Perfect."

Knock knock knock.

"Come in."

Looking over he saw Maria walk in.

"Ah Maria. How's the kid?"

"Stable. Find anything on him?"

Gabe shook his head.

"No, the kid is basically nonexistent. Only thing I could tell you is his last name is Jameson, least assuming the two adults with him in the car were his parents."

"I'm pretty sure they were his folks, he resembled both of them."

"Yeah, but the fact he has no birth record bugs me. Yeah, it's not unheard of just something about it is bugging me."

Maria gave him a bit of playful punch in the shoulder.

"You're thinking too hard, we'll get more information soon when he wakes up, just be patient."

Gabe smirked.

"You're one to talk."

Maria rolled her eyes before handing Gabe a clipboard with a chart attached.

"Here's everything Erhuard and I were able to put together. You can add on once you get more information."

"Thanks. What room is he in and when will he be awake?"

"Room 314, and in two hours. Have fun."

Maria left Gabe alone to look over the chart. Gabe scanned over it quickly relaying some of the information to RONI.

"Well, we'll just call him Jameson for now till we get a first name."

"Understood, Doctor." RONI said recording the name. "New file created under the name Jameson."

Gabe nodded leaning back into his chair. He looked at the clock on his computer screen making a mental note to go to Jameson 's room at 4:20. He closed his eyes, thinking over everything again.

No birth record... It shouldn't bug me but yet it does... Maybe I am over thinking. Just focus on checking on his health and getting his name...
