what should I eat today' i was going back home and was feeling really hungry.
'a pizza, Coke, Doritos, burger, pretzels and potato it would be way too much.
'pizza, coke and Doritos it is then'.
I unpocketed my phone and dialed the nearest pizza shop number and ordered my favorite pizza.
I had just to take a turn to reach my house when something, no, rather someone startled me.
A weird guy out of the blue appeared and believe me, I don't know how to react to it and Halloween isn't even near but I am seeing a guy in a spooky costume.
he looked like he was going to murder someone and by any chance, I don't want to be that 'someone'
let me see my options.
(i) walk off, I was just passing by.
(ii) scream but it will tempt the guy to kill me rather early than anticipated
(iii) just stare and wait for him to say something but it would be a weird.
(iv) beat him to a pulp but I don't know how.
I decided to go with the first option.
when I was about to take a step, the weird guy said something which caused me to halt my movement.
"Hello there"said the guy with a crooked smile.
"I have an offer for you".
"uhh what offer?"I hesitantly asked, not sure what to say.
"since you have died, I am giving you a second chance at life and a totally different one but it's your choice".
'i died but how?' i didn't know how to answer to that so I kept quiet.
"so is it a yes or no?'.
"but I am not dead mister and if you are playing some sick joke, don't.
"Oh humans they are so interesting" his crooked grin got wider. I deadpanned at that one. I had a face that literally said 'seriously'.
"what do you mean?" I asked with a confused face.
"let me show you" just as he said that the surrounding environment around me changed. I was now standing in the city in the middle of the road. so I said the only thing I can think of.
"the fuck?"
I was now starting to get panicked. I felt my myself drowning with my own questions. so many questions but no answers.'how did I get here; why I am here; where am I '
I tried to look for that weird guy and found him right behind me after a second or two.
"how did we get here?" I asked him in a panicked tone.
"just watch"his face for the first time neutral.
I watched as people went by their usual business until a certain moment that left my eyes and jaw wide open .i saw myself. my another self was going to crossing the road and was in the middle of the road until a car hit my anther self and I saw as my soul left the body without feeling a tinge pain and watched as the soul went on without giving a second glance to the now dead body
my face changed colors and that if I had one
"but how"
"Isn't it obvious?"
'i died and the soul left the body ' but I never thought that I would die that easily, that sudden. I never expected it to be like that but it was inevitable
I felt nothing. I didn't know what to feel. I stretched the silence that has fallen since the revelation of my current state, that is 'dead, astral form or zombie or a ghost.
"so now what?"
"like I said before, an offer"
"what offer?"
"you get reincarnated "
"but you said before that it's totally different and how is that?"
"you are getting reincarnated in dc universe"
ha
lol
my brain can be fooled so easily
I probably just misheard him so I tried to confirm.
"pardon?" disbelief clear in my tone of voice.
"you get reincarnated in dc universe".
"can you repeat it again".
"reincarnated in dc universe".
"are you Sirius?".
"no, I am shinigami".
"not funny".
"but why would you choose me out of all the people out there?".
"since I was getting bored, I decided to have something for amusement ".
"someTHING?" I stretched the word thing long enough for him to understand what I mean.
"I didn't expected you to forget this early but just a reminder you are dead ".
"Ohh yeah, right".
"so I have no body right now"
"correct"
"so I am a ghost". the guy replied with a nod and said "typical".
"so what if I say no. then am I supposed to pay for my sins in hell or haunt houses for the rest of the eternity. I am pretty sure I won't be going to heaven since I have blood of millions of ants on my hands or feet or shoes,both actually but it doesn't matter
"like I said before it's your choice but if you choose not to, like you guessed earlier you are going to hell and if it's a yes, you will be born again and inevitably die again
'i don't have choice do I? so "it's a yes"
there was no loss in getting reincarnated. I was alone. no family .no job but yet living, no rather surviving .it was still better than going to hell. anyone else would have made the same choice.
"I don't have anything to lose so yeah but would I remember my past life ".
"I am getting reincarnated as a human, right? ".i can't imagine being a snake, centipede, snail and remember my past life or worse an ant, the labor would be way too intense and it wouldn't be any better than hell.
"yes, but a human with special powers".
"what type of power".
"you can have the powers of Saiyan, wizard, titan shifter and ninja ."
"can I have all of the theses supernatural abilities?".
"no".
"so only one?.
"yes".
let me see
I can't be a Saiyan since there is a guy called Clark Kent having almost same power. wizard seems to be a nice choice but they already have John contastine for that.i can't risk being a titan shifter since I don't want to turn into a giant form of uncontrolled mess everytime I get the option remaining is that of ninja.
"if I choose Ninja will I have power like the ninjas in the Naruto series ?".
"yes".
"which elemental affinity can I have and am I going to have any bloodline?".
"you can have all the elemental affinities including affinities like lava release but as for blood line it's your choice"
"cool, so I am choosing ninja".
"is your decision final because you can't change it".
"yes its final and hurry up can't wait anymore "
"so brace yourself .it could hurt a bit "
"a bit?"
I wasn't able to hear his reply if any.
but I was getting bored anyway
