Empty... My head feels empty...

...I breathe heavily as I regain consciousness.

I see two doors, one labeled "P".
There's a sword next to me...
And a red spinning... thing... next to the wall, floating in mid-air....


Please suggest an action.

I try moving the sword around with just my mind, since I don't have any other objects in the room.

...
...

It made a nice *clang* sound when it hit the ground...

I didn't react to grabbing the sword when it fell, feels like my reflexes are slower...

well, altered reflex can be the cause of a few other things.

can you say if time is passing slower or faster?

lost of reflex is usually associated with changes of perception. do you feel numb? maybe sharper that the usual?

I grasp my sword a bit more tightly as I say

"I just touched a red spinny thing and entered here. What's going on? Win against who?"

He responds with a more puzzled voice.

"Y-... ... You don't remember what just happened?"

"Nope."

"I see... He won, then. Very well, I'll tell you, but I have to be brief, gotta get the portal system online."

He goes back to typing on the computer terminal that he's standing at.

"We are in a research facility where we experiment and test our abilities. One of the guys, I don't know who he is, I just arrived here. Anyway, he has some kind of ability to manipulate minds of people. Just an ordinary break and suddenly the alarm trips and this guy and others start wrecking havoc an-- Damn..

"Let's go with Red for now." I reply.


He puzzles.
"yes, I noticed your color. You changed at one of these spinning things?"

"Apparantly, what are they?"

"Elemental Changers are what they're called. They change the elements in our body to become attuned and focused to one specific element."

He pauses.

"Your own abilities change, as well as your statistics. I like to keep my ability to port through holes as generic. Wouldn't want to add water or say acid to that kind of trick..."

"What happened before I lost my memories?" I query.

"We ran into eachother in a hallway, you drew your sword. Deffinitely a fighter type. We agreed to escape from the facility, since we were ordered to evacuate."

He takes a more focused look on the Elemental Changer before continuing.

"A friend of yours said he had to check up on something and went back, we continued to here were that mind manipulation guy caught up to us. You told me to go on ahead and I did. Which brings us to our present moment."

I'm getting mixed thoughts about killing him or not...

Upside, I won't have to think about protecting him if anything were to happend and I would certainly be ridd of the factor of being betrayed.

Downside, I would lose a source of information.
I would also have to find someone else that knows how to work that portal whatsit or find another way out...
