Complete Transfer

Lulu had blacked out and when she woke up, she found herself in a small room with bare walls. There were two beds in the room and some light was shining through the thin curtains on the window. She sat up on the bed feeling slightly dizzy and noticed that her arm was being grabbed by someone.

When she looked down, she saw a seven-year-old boy clinging to her arm and that was when she started feeling alarmed. She looked around and she could not recognise anything in the room. She looked at the other boy that was sleeping next to her before removing her hand from his grasp.

The last thing she remembered was falling down a long flight of stairs from the launch party of Maxia's new product, but now she was in a room that was so poorly equipped that it was below the level of a beggar. Out of curiosity, she decided to look around so she would know what was going on.

She quickly got up from the bed and realised that she seemed to have grown taller. The distance between her and the floor had increased significantly and she couldn't help but feel anxious. She combed her fingers through her hair naturally since it was blocking her vision before she paused.

She remembered that she had long hair, but now that she felt it, it was considerably shorter than she thought. When she finally processed her situation, she rushed to open a cupboard and saw a mirror screwed on to the door of the wardrobe. Lulu looked at herself and she couldn't believe her eyes.

As she looked into the mirror, a man looked back at her with piercing green eyes. 'This guy is too handsome' she couldn't help but think as she touched her face. A face with intense green eyes was reflected from the mirror and right below the left eye, there was a small mole. The face that was staring back also had a straight nose and pouty lips. The face had strong cheekbones and a jaw that looked like it could cut through steel.

Lulu admired the face in the mirror for a long time before she came back to her senses. She was not supposed to be admiring the face that was looking back at her but try to figure out what was happening. She touched her neck and noticed that the necklace was gone. She started thinking about what happened at the party when she fell down the stairs.

"Did I die?" Lulu asked herself as she sat on the other empty bed in the room.

As she was thinking about what happened, she felt a sudden headache, as if someone struck the back of her head with a hammer. She immediately blacked out and fell to the floor, as she was passed out she had a very vivid dream. The dream seemed to be related to the previous owner of the body.

She saw that his name was Marcel Melar. From the knowledge of the previous body, he was brought to the orphanage because his parents died in a car accident but reality seemed to prove otherwise. He was abandoned by his mother in front of the gates of the orphanage when he was 5 years old and was used for his entire life.

He was repeatedly molested by the previous headmaster of the orphanage when he was young. Later on, a new child was brought to the orphanage and he was assigned to be his brother. Since then he was able to use the excuse of raising the child to avoid going to the headmaster's office. He sincerely took care of the child and even suggested they name him Liam.

However, when he was eighteen, he was taken out of the orphanage to offer entertainment to potential donors, both male and female. As a result, he was exposed to a lot of perverted people and at some point started resenting the orphanage and everyone in it. Including the caretakers and even the other orphans. He even started hating Liam and he felt guilty about it since he practically raised the boy.

He felt that he as a very despicable person and swallowed a handful of sleeping pills to kill himself later on. Although he could have left the orphanage when he was eighteen, he did not know anywhere else to go to besides the orphanage, therefore he ended up creating a self-imposed prison for himself.

'What is this all about?' Lulu thought to herself. The last thing she expected was to receive an actual response.

[This is the life of the previous habitant of this body].

If Lulu was not unconscious she would have jumped in surprise.

'Habitant?'

[Yes, you are now inhabiting this body as your life force has replaced the original host's] the voice replied.

'Who are you? Am I dreaming?' Lulu asked feeling puzzled. She was used to AI directly talking to her but it did not seem like the current world she was in had the sort of technology she was used to.

[I am eagle, the first of my creations] the voice replied.

'Eagle? Creations?' Lulu asked feeling puzzled.

[Yes, I am the first of the bird series that was in production in the year 2790. I was officially bound to you in the year 2365 and was able to transfer your life force to this body that died at the same time as you did] the voice answered. Rather than clear up the confusion she had, she ended up being even more confused.

'So you're from the future?' Lulu asked incredulously.

[It seems so] the voice said.

'Then what time frame are we in' Lulu asked anxiously.

[It seems like we're in the 21st century in Earth terms] the voice replied.

The answer did not comfort Lulu at all. In fact, she would have preferred if she was brought to the future rather than the past. Just thinking of the inconveniences she was about to experience made her feel like a snob who has lived a life a luxury all her life.

'When can I leave' Lulu asked patiently.

[You can't. You are already dead in the year 2365 you can only make the most of the time you have now] the voice replied.

'You- wait, who are you?' Lulu asked.

[I am eagle the first of the-]

'No, like where did you come from?' Lulu asked.

[You wore me to the event, that was how I managed to save you at the time. I tried to neutralise the drug you were given for as long as I could but you did not take any action] Eagle replied.

When Lulu heard this she couldn't help but feel flustered. If she knew she had been drugged from earlier on she would not have wasted her precious time at the party but would have left instead.

'Forget it, so what now?' Lulu asked.

[You get a second chance at life, I will try to protect you to the best of my capabilities. You can pursue any career path you would like to pursue and prosper in it] the voice calmly replied.

'Oh! Is that so? Then I want to do what I do best' Lulu said confidently.

[That is for you to decide] the voice said and disappeared. Shortly after Lulu could feel someone shaking her awake.

Lulu opened her eyes and was face to face with large brown watery eyes.

"Big brother Marcel" the childish voice called out softly as the cute face looked at Lulu. 'How could a kid be so cute!' Lulu couldn't help but wonder as she sat up from the floor.

"Are you okay? Why are you sleeping on the floor?" Liam asked as he worriedly looked at Marcel.

"I fell as I was sleeping," Lulu said as she ruffled Liam's hair.
