Leon felt like he is floating in the clouds. His limbs were left suspended in the air and the sensation to just rest is washing over the thought of being active and finish that one thing he needed to get done.
What is it that needed to be done?
He thought.
"Is this heaven?" He asked. Leon thought there was no one to respond him in this space but it was proven wrong when a crisp voice, loud and clear replied to him. 
"Maybe so, maybe not." Leon opened his eyes but all he could see were white and intense bright that forbidding his sight to thrive past the thick wall of bright lights. He became wary. The light materializes into a solid wall that separate him from somewhere he is not yet ready to get inside. Where am I? 
He spoke with a tone coated with an alertness that mixed with a tinge of fear, he answered to the unknown individual.   
"W..who are you?" It was not a complete lie since he is quite scared of what might wait for him in this space. He tried to ready his skill >needle< but it was already the third time that there is no respond from the system. He felt stripped. He felt powerless for the first time in a long, long while. That's what gave him fear. The individual chuckled and it was something familiar to Leon. But he didn't thought much and replied to Leon like it has been a long time since they last talked.  
"How are you man? Bet with your memory you had already forgotten me but I thank the one who listens for keeping you safe and given me a chance to see you like this." Erratically and frantic, his heart were chasing horses and the loud beating made him feel nauseous. His nose scrunched and eyes glared into nothingness. 
"Do I really know you?!" Leon unintentionally screams. The individual, although was behind from the thick covering of the bright light, is evidently enjoying their little conversation. Leon could feel it. He seems amused from what he is acting right now and he doesn't like the feeling of being watched by others.  
"You don't need to be so wary like a wild wolf dude. You still doesn't change don't you? Seeing you makes my worries to be washed away now. I hope with you there, they will not suffer anymore. I really hope man..."   
Leon is now pissed from the expectations that had been put to his shoulders. If he could, he wanted to refuse but he is curious to whom he is referring to. It has been a long time that someone is speaking to him with such familiarity. After living for so long his memories seems to become sands in a hourglass. They become so tiny and quietly resting on the ground while waiting for someone to flip it up. Someone who can move it stilled self. And now he felt his memories jugged. He got surprised when the individual seems to read his mind and answered like it was normal.  
"In time you'll know the importance of caring, either you give it or receive it, you'll learn eventually dude! Just please, don't push people away from you like you unintentionally does. That made them awkward towards you, filling your thoughts that they might not like you. I tell you man! You are wrong!" He chuckled some more to show that he is amused to Leon's face making such a myriads of expressions that he had never seen to him before... So to what he remembers.
Like he know Leon all along.
Because Leon doesn't replied to him yet, he started to talk instead.  
"It is not our fate to meet but this must be having some kind of meaning. As for a parting gift I would give you something that will help you. I am really glad to meet you like this. I really missed you man!" Leon clutches his chest and squeezed it. He felt like the air stopped from going inside his lungs and the gravity is pushing him down. He reaches his hand in the air hoping for someone to lift him up so he could avoid the sinking of his body but instead of a hand, an embrace and a light touch in his forehead made him feel sleepy. He felt his body is being lifted in the sky and the feelings he had earlier were there again but different from the feeling of an endless drifting, this one had a certain direction.  
Like he is not lost anymore.
"I bid you my farewell! I wish to see you next time and by that time I hope you tell me stories of what happened to you during the time of your absence." It was familiar and not for Leon but still he decided to reply what he had in his mind. 
"See you later bro. Make sure that you explain me things when we meet again."  
The individual is halted and Leon's body paused from moving as well. Question marks are forming in his head when the individual laughed hard Leon felt his ears were near to tearing. He sounds familiar. Just like that AI with a high pitched voice.
"You really are.....amazing!" Instead of listening to his words Leon retaliates. 
"Can you please not talk too loud near my ear! It hurts!" Leon felt that their flight continues. Within this embrace he felt like he is safe and if he could, he doesn't want to get out of here. He thinks he belong here but before he could lose consciousness, a flick in the head made him want to shout at him but is already in the influence of a sleepiness he could withstand.  
"Till then my bro---" 
---- 
"LEON!" He abruptly lifted his upper body that had cause for him to felt dizzy and made him clutch his head. He felt sluggish like he slept for so long. 
"Why are you shouting..." There is no energy in his voice and he felt like his throat were too dry for him to talk. His limbs felt weakened and there is that feeling that he just got recovered from a disease that had infected his body; paralyzing it for quite a long time.
"OH MY GOD! You are finally awake Leon! I was so worried because you are not responding to me and your vitals had reached the dangerous level! I thought you will be left here weakened or worst, you'll die in this place. hik." A soft sob, no, a suppressed cry Mint is trying so hard to hide but that didn't escaped Leon who is now readying his eyes before he could open it. He know the intensity of light that might hurt him if he just open his eyes that quickly. He learned his lesson. While waiting he inquired Mint of what had happened.  
"You lost consciousness, obviously! I thought you had fallen ill like them! The unknown power was going inside your body, no, more precisely, it was being drawn to your body and until it all went inside you, your body convulses nonstop. Are you really okay?" Her voice went a few decibels high and Leon winced from it. Mint notices it from her vital scan and apologizes. To be honest, Leon has no idea what had happened, all he knows, his system made a solution and Mint tried something...what did she does? 
"Mint, what happened, how did you saved me?" While rubbing his eyes and massaging it lightly, Mint, unlike her usual self that ignores Leon, she responded almost instantly. 
"I didn't do much! After administering a first aid solution...well I didn't manage to do it since there is something that is stopping me from your body to access it so I just analyzed the power and made a makeshift solution like of an anti virus. Whatever your body has, it mixed with it and the result was you having no conscious for quite a while. Hey! You haven't told me if you are really fine though!" Leon then pat the watch like he is patting a child. It was light and gentle that put Mint into silence. Leon felt like this child is being adorable to him right now. That's why he wanted to be nice once in a while.
"I am fine, don't worry. But how long did I lose consciousness though?" Leon thinks that he had prepared himself enough so he decided to open his eyes. Together with it was Mint's reply that left him in utter shock. 
"It has been a week since then." 
Leon felt like the strength that he had managed to recover left his body, when the bright light disappeared and his eyesight settled already, he scanned his surroundings. He couldn't believe what he is seeing. He even rub his eyes so many times. 
"What the...wow", that's all he could say. The damp surface became a patch of green grass that has sufficient sunlight. The trees that's scarce with no leaves on its branches become so lively and shades were preventing him to be in the direct rays of the sun that before, was not present in the area. Fruits bear ripe on its branches, bushes of wild berries are scattered almost around. There is something that is missing in this magical place. 
There is no animals.
"Mint where are..." 
'Oh esteemed sir! Finally you are already awake!" Leon was about to inquire Mint about the low ranked people that before he lost consciousness was in danger, who would have thought... he immediately turn his head to the direction of the voice when Mint starpted to explain what happened. 
"After one or two days that you lost consciousness, somebody regained their consciousness and energy back. She was mesmerized and dumbfounded when he saw you being suspended in the air. After a few minutes, someone awoken and helped her to bring your body down and they made that patches of leaves as a blanket like the old age so you don't have to lie down at the ground directly. They've been taking care of you since then. After scanning your surroundings, I was certain that everyone that you brought in here all regained consciousness and back up like a sturdy cow." Leon is listening to Mint while Clara checks his pulse, his temperature and even his back if it has sweat. Leon felt like being a child. His shirt were different and even the pants. 
"..."
He got terrified when he realized that when he lost consciousness, the skill >full disguise< might have cancelled but then seeing that Clara isn't shock while checking up on him, he decided to check the system after this chaotic come back.
