Chapter 1: Chapter 1 - ORIGIN
Chapter 1- ORIGIN
I remember it like it was yesterday the dull days I've spent during my childhood strapped to a machine in the hospital praying to live just another day. Those times felt both distant and achingly close. As a child confined to the sterile embrace of hospital walls, each day blurred into the next, a relentless cycle of treatments and whispered prayers.
I remember the beeping machines that punctuated the silence, each sound a reminder of my fragile hold on life. But in those moments of confinement, I also discovered the profound depths of hope and imagination. With every flicker of light from the window, I dreamed of adventures beyond the reach of my illness, clinging to the belief that even in the darkest times, the spirit of a child can find a way to soar.
In the quiet confines of my hospital room, where time often felt like it stood still, I discovered a world beyond my reality through the vibrant colors of anime, the intricate stories of manga, and the escapism of movies. Each episode and page became a portal, transporting me to places where the struggles of my illness faded into the background.
Watching anime was like stepping into a kaleidoscope of emotions. The heroic journeys of characters overcoming impossible odds mirrored my fight against the illness that gripped me. I found joy in their victories, and in their moments of vulnerability, I saw reflections of my own struggles.
in my last minutes the lights started to fade until all felt was this darkness consuming me. In a swirling realm of luminescent hues, where colors shifted and danced like whispers in the wind, a figure materialized a being of shimmering energy, resplendent in an ethereal glow. The air crackled with a cosmic vibration as they stood before a recently departed soul, whose form flickered like a distant star, still grappling with the shock of mortality.
"Welcome," said the being, their voice a mellifluous sound that resonated deep within the soul. "You have crossed the threshold between worlds."
The soul looked around, bewildered. "Is this... am I dead?"
"Yes," the being replied, their radiance pulsating gently. "But fret not. This is merely a transition, a moment suspended in time. I am the Watcher, an omnipotent steward of the dimensions, and I hold the key to your next journey."
"What do you mean?" the soul asked. Fear and curiosity intertwined within them. "I didn't have a chance to... to live fully. I want a second chance."
The Watcher smiled; an expression filled with understanding. "Life is seldom fair, yet there is always the possibility of renewal. You have the opportunity to be reincarnated into a world of your choosing—a place where you can explore, learn, and grow beyond the confines of your previous existence."
The soul's heart raced at the thought. "But how do I decide? What if I make the wrong choice?"
"Every choice leads to growth," the Watcher reassured. "You will carry the wisdom of your past life into the new one. I will guide you to the realms where possibilities are limitless." I will also grant you an assistant to help you survive and grow in the world you find yourself in.
Around them, images began to swirl, flashing visions of vibrant worlds—kingdoms of magic, futuristic cities brimming with technology, and serene landscapes untouched by time. Each scene pulsed with life, offering a taste of adventures yet to come. In a swirling realm of luminescent hues, where colors shifted and danced like whispers in the wind, a figure materialized a being of shimmering energy, resplendent in an ethereal glow. The air crackled with a cosmic vibration as they stood before a recently departed soul, whose form flickered like a distant star, still grappling with the shock of mortality.
"Choose wisely," the Watcher said, their voice a calming presence. "Your past will shape you, but it does not define your future. Embrace the journey ahead."
Standing before the vivid tapestry of possibilities, the soul took a deep breath, feeling the weight of their former life slip away. With newfound hope igniting within, they reached out toward a world where they could carve their own path, ready to dance once more in the tapestry of existence.
"I always want explore this world," the soul declared, a spark of determination igniting in their essence. "I want to explore this world and make a difference."
"Then let it be so," the Watcher proclaimed, and in an instant, the vibrant colors enveloped the soul, a whirlwind of light and sound as they prepared to take their first steps into a new life—one filled with endless possibilities and the promise of adventure.
