Deep in the concrete jungle of New York City is the Otherworldly Universal Care Hospital.
The hospital is recognizable only to those with true need, and it has a way of finding those who are lost, alone, and need help. The only thing scarier than its strange and unusual staff is the exorbitant cost of care. Those intrepid enough to enter the hospital and brave enough to consent to the unorthodox treatments, however, are rewarded with a standard of care that is entirely unmatched in quality and efficacy. After all, the O.U.C.H. healthcare team has the means to provide excellent service that is unavailable to other medical professionals. They implement techniques not used anywhere else. Our story begins with a nurse named Kelsey Boggs reaching the doors of the hospital to respond to a job opening.

Karma means what goes around comes around. What you give is what you get returned.
Reincarnation means that your bodily form may die but your spirit returns in another form. Some believe that the two are connected together. If you give good things, you will have good karma and then, when you are reincarnated, you will move to the next level of body. Similarly, if you give bad things, you will have bad karma and move down a level. It is my personal belief that if you are mediocre and give equal good and bad, you will get to replay the level you had been on; a do-over of sorts. I watch my shimmery purple scales and fan-like tail reflect off the plastic wall of my home and wonder: if this is true, what did I do in my previous life to become a betta fish? A grey dawn was breaking on the horizon. Arsinoë watched the dark clouds rolling across the sky overhead and a single drop of rain hit the car windshield.
A storm was coming soon. She rolled through the cemetery gates and wound slowly along the road, scanning the tombstones and markers. Josh’s grandmother was in a columbarium next to a grey tombstone shaped like an avenging angel. She pulled the car over on the grass next to the distinctive marker and got out. She walked around to the left side of the columbarium and found the slot where the remains she came for were kept. She had come prepared with a crowbar, knife, and single white rose. The room was empty. Moonlight streamed in through the large arched windows and illuminated the brick walls adorned with unlit torches. There was an iron chandelier hanging from the ceiling, a dead fireplace on one wall, and a wood-paneled door on the opposite wall.
The door flew open and in floated a white ethereal humanoid with a flame-like head. The chandelier lit up, and the fireplace and torches roared to life, bathing the room in a sinister fiery glow. It was the Ghost of Christmas Past. As he moved to the center of the room, he was followed by his cohorts, the Ghosts of Christmas Present and Yet to Come. |
