It was eight o'clock in the evening. Leo slowly opened his eyes. His vision was blurry so he blinked his eyes a few times and things started to clear up. A sharp pain in his head made him contort his face and wince. He had a big headache and his thoughts were muffled and unclear for a while. 'Where... am I?" He thought. He tried to recall what happened before he blacked out, but he felt even more excruciating pain in his head. He hissed and held his head. "Owww. That hurts." He muttered and stopped trying to remember what happened. Instead, he wanted to assess his surroundings and see where he was. Although his vision was still blurry and was slowly clearing up, he could still recognize some large things in the room. He sat up and looked around the room. It wasn't too dark in the room, as some lights were still on, illuminating some parts of the room for him. He started getting frustrated about his eyes being blurry so he rubbed them both with his hands. When he was done, the image of everything got even more, blurrier, but it cleared up faster than before. When everything got clear, he was able to tell where he was. "I'm in... Dr. Cartel's private lab?" He wondered. He looked at himself and saw that he was in a medical bed. Like a thunderbolt had struck him, he began to recall the whole thing that happened. Everything before he became the being that healed Logan. 'I was trying to heal Logan on this bed... speaking of Logan, where is he?' He remembered. At the same time, Logan walked in through the door. The low creaking sound of the door got Leo's attention and he watched his best friend come in. "Seems like you're awake, sleepyhead..." He jested with a smile. "What happened to me? You're the one who's supposed to be on the bed." Leo said. Logan laughed and pointed at Leo. "I saw what you did there," he claimed as he noticed the way Leo joked about them switching places, before walking up and taking a seat beside Leo, "Well, you succeeded in healing me completely but you passed out in the process," he explained. Looks eyes widened with surprise. "Seriously? I did?" He asked with a surprised expression and sized up Logan's body. He touched his ribs and looked at Logan's face, but the latter shook his head, indicating that there was no pain.
Suddenly, Leo began to break down in tears. Logan gave an embarrassed laugh before patting Leo on the back. "C'mon, bro. You're a man. You shouldn't be acting like this. Besides... we've got another issue to deal with." Logan implied. Leo suddenly stopped shedding tears and faced Logan with a curious look. The latter pointed outside the door and Leo looked in the direction his index finger pointed.
In Dr. Cartel's office, he saw Ms. Angela on the chair. She rested her back and her arms were dangling from her shoulders. Her face was up and her eyes had lost focus. From what Leo could tell, she was unconscious. Leo was surprised and wondered what happened. He suddenly thought of something that made him shudder. "Oh my... did I do that?" He questioned with an astonished face. Logan quickly shook his head. "No no. It's not what you think. You didn't do anything." He replied, making Leo heave a sigh of relief. "What happened then?" He inquired. Logan sighed and explained what happened to Leo when he healed him and the being he became. Leo got confused at this juncture. "You're saying that... I became... a god?" He inquired. Logan sighed and shrugged. "I don't know. But that was basically what you... or whoever that was said." He replied. Leo thought more about it but it didn't make any sense to him. He was well aware that he was unconscious at this time, given that he was trying to heal his best friend. But as a result... he took on another personality. Given Logan's descriptions of the new personality's actions... he was able to make a conclusion. 'Whoever That was... it definitely wasn't that dragon I saw in my dream.' Leo thought. His mind drifted about for a while until Logan called him back. "Dude, That was just issue number one I just told you." Logan implied. Leo raised his brows. "So there's a number two?" He asked. The latter nodded and pointed at the still-unconscious Ms. Angela in the doctor's office. "Apparently... she saw you transform into the being you became and saw your powers. That was probably what caused her to pass out in the first place." Logan explained. Leo scratched his chin and pondered for a while. "Well... this is gonna be a problem for us." He muttered. Logan nodded in agreement. "Yeah. Very troublesome indeed." He added. Leo got up and walked to the office to check Dr. Cartel's secretary. However, when he got there, he looked outside the window and noticed that it was dark and the buildings were all lit up. "Huh..." He was confused and turned back to Logan, "Wait, What time is it?" He asked. The latter frowned slightly before taking out his phone to check the time. "Umm... it's about thirty minutes to nine o'clock." He claimed. Leo's confused look suddenly turned into one of shock. "What?!" He yelled. Logan was lost at this point. "What's the matter?" He inquired. Leo groaned as he messaged his temples. Two problems were lying right in front of him and this was making him feel pressured "Your mum's at home, sick and worried about you. And I promised to bring you back to her safe and sound." Leo revealed. Logan was surprised but he still didn't mind. "Well... guess she's gonna have to wait a little longer because... we have no idea when this lady over here is going to wake up." Logan implied. "No way. I can't give your mum too much trouble. I'm taking you home. I'll call Dr. Cartel to come take care of this mess." Leo declared before pointing at Logan, "You... are going home." He ordered. Logan was about to argue, but seeing how serious Leo was... he just had to keep quiet. He sighed. 'guess it can't be helped.' He thought to himself and watched as Leo locked the lab and made a call for the doctor. "Hello," Leo said, with the phone on his ears as he spoke to Dr. Cartel, "Where have you been?" He questioned. His voice held a tint of annoyance in it. "Doesn't matter. I'm on my way now. You guys still in the lab?" The doctor's voice was barely audible from Logan's standpoint but he could still hear it.
"Yh... but we'll be leaving now. You'd better be quick. We've got a situation at your office."
