Ch.0 Emotions are Scary.

"Mmm... what is, that voice"?
Wa.....up......
"Up?"
Wake up!
"HA!" I open my eyes in confusion. "Where am I, some strange cave?"
A sense of alienation strikes me, then I realized I am missing my eyes, nose, arms, legs, and everything else, I panic and cry out!
"HAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"
"Ugh.... my ears." A small yet womanly voice is heard near me, I turn around or at least tried to, not really used to this floaty feeling of both weightlessness and dismemberment. Before me stood a small... firefly? looking closely I found a beautiful woman about the size of a fully grown man's palm. The beauty started talking.
"You are awake now dear! Allow me to introduce myself, I am a second leaf sprout, Q'illtress Birch blossom, you can call me Q'ill for short hehe."
"Hello! Miss Quill, I am... am..." I froze, I couldn't remember who I was, when I tried to focus, fragmented scenes ran across my mind. I felt like parts of me were missing like I was looking through a mirror but couldn't focus in my blurred face, as if I was watching a movie of my life that was heavily edited with huge pieces cut out and broken yet coherent enough to know it was me and roughly what I was doing.
The maiden started to talk with a bit of sadness. "It's Q'ill... Q-ill ok honey? But let's talk about you, do you remember anything about yourself? Your birth was rather complicated."

The firefly lady came closer letting me have a complete view of her for the first time, she had a small red dress with a war maiden look, having armor in the vitals yet not blocking her range of movements. Too fiery butterfly wings grew from her back adding to her war maiden look.
I quickly replied to her. "I am fine, miss Q'ill my body seems to have disappeared. My head feels like it's about to explode yet I don't have any pain, I am confused and out of place."
The small firefly lady looked at me in shock, as if I was a monster. "You-u-u-u-u you dare try and take control of a newly born Core!!"
The firefly lady got angry and started to talk gibberish. After a while a soft warm light covers me relieving the stuffed and confusion filling in my head, most of my memories were now coming together feeling like they belong to me and not something that was trying to force itself into my tiny brain.
Then it hit me who I was, Brian a normal young adult from earth, I had a job, family, played video games, and went to the gym. It was a normal life. I search through my now organized fragmented memories and couldn't find how I ended up here.
"Yo-o-o-uu! How dare you! You swallowed an unborn child's ego, have you no shame!" The firefly lady looked pissed and started to talk gibberish again, I hurried to explain.
"Wa-a-aiit miss this is a misunderstanding I didn't swallow anything, my head was just bloated with knowledge and I couldn't process it, Thanks to miss Gill I feel so much better now. S-s-see I can even talk normally now hah...hahaha.a..a."
"Is Q'ill, not GILL! And who are you fooling how can a newborn baby have the level of awareness you do! You're just some apprentice mage brat who forcefully used the 3rd Circle Spell [Mind Control] on this poor child to make him your slave! Admit it!"
A large fireball, four times the size of the firefly lady, was hovering over her outstretched arm and aimed at me. I panic and yelled!
"I didn't! I am not a mage or anything like that I swear! Someone save me!!"
I started to cry yet no tears fell, I was confused even if I was scared I was too old to bawl my eyes out like that. Even though I have no eyes to cry with, I couldn't stop and by the time I was able to control myself the fireball had disappeared in its place was Q'ills confused face.
