Excuse me what? Rebir-
Aaaand everything went black… well, more black I guess. I felt like I’d gotten my body back though, even if I felt super weak. I felt really cozy though, still couldn’t see anything but I could faintly make out a rhythmic thumping sound… I’m not an idiot and so had figured out I was currently a baby, or fetus I guess.
I’d be more shocked at this development if I hadn’t had years to come to terms with the random abduction I’d gone through. So… rebirth huh? Will I be born into a world of alien beings on a higher plane of existence or something? Or will I be born again as a human? From the small amount of info I can gather I’d bet on being human.
Still I hope i’m not born in a stone age society or as a woman in early china or something, I never really cared about gender but that doesn’t mean i’d willingly choose to make my life harder… Even if it would be fun to take over the world using technological superiority.
Being a fetus has barely changed my routine honestly. I have a body again but I can’t use it, I don’t know how far along I am so I'm stuck waiting to pop out… also how the hell am I even able to think with such clarity? I thought being a baby would severely hinder my ability to think?
[Answer: Host brain has been altered to allow for greater information retention and clarity]
You again! And you’re less spooky than I remember! Where am I? Who am I? What year is it? What species am I? What is the technological level of the world I’m in compared to my old one? Why aren’t you as creepy looking as before? What did you do to me?
[Answer: Host is currently in the womb of Lisa Jackson on planet Earth of universe 482346, Host is Samuel Hammond, the year is Error, Host is currently species Homo Sapien, Technological level of current planet is classified as 1.7/100 while your last world was rated at 0.9/100, System was not fully connected to host during upload leading to visual and auditory anomalies, Host has been uploaded from observatory universe into active prime universe]
Woah thats… a lot of info to take in at once, why is the year an error?

[Searching for answer. . . discovered // Answer: Host information blocked due to Admin interference]
That's… disconcerting. So what am I meant to do? Am I here to take over the world or bring it into a new golden age or something? For that matter what are you meant to do? Are you sapient or just a program?
[Answer: Host can do whatever you want, Host can take over the world or lead it into a new golden age if so desired, Systems purpose is to assist host in any and all endeavors and provide information and ease of use for available blueprints, System is a sapient program designed by M̷̢̡̡̢̧̡̨̢̡̨̡̧̧̡̧̡̡̢̨̛̲͚͔͎̘̭̤̮̩̖̪͎͓̺̟̥̞͎͇͈͕̱̰̰̲̦̳̙̼̦̤̦̜̥͙͙̹̼̝̼͍̞̺̯͍̠̪̰͚͇̱̗͎̟͉̤̜̥̱̼͓̗̹̪̦̳̲͇̠̻̮̺̱͈̺̦̗͈̪̻̠̖̼͈̞̟̞̪͓̖͉̱͕̣͕͍͈̭̩̞̯͚̠̭͚̬̣̤̬̲̝͎̜͕̯̪̦̟̲͔̯̰̩̟̯͚̯̥̣̟̳̥͎͇̪̫̲͎̲͍̜̰̟̭̬̲̫̠̹̼̖͖̫̣͕̺̞̗̼̹̣͔̣̩̼̮̩̭͓̣̜͔͖͖͍̥̼̰̰̩̤̤̼̝̪̘͈̤̬͈͙̮̹̻̘̼̦̜͌̃̀̋͑́̏̈́̾̊͌̈́͜͜͜͜͜͝͝ͅͅͅͅͅȩ̴̢̡̨̢̨̧̡̧̡̢̧̢̛̛̬͎̮̝̞̬͙͕̳̙̦̥͉̖̯͔̳̖̯͉̰̩͈͚̭̘͓̞̙͉̟̘̬͎̠͈̞̞̭̖͓̼̞̤͉̳̲̹̫̗̙͚̭͙͖̤̲̯͉̟̺̺̯̹̩͚̥̻͇̮̭̺̜̖̳̝̜̰̬̦̭̫̬̞̯̗͎̮̹̰͓̝̤̮̦̱͙̯̮̙̯͍͖͂͗̍̒̑͊̔̃̌̔͗͑̏̆̊͌͛̌͆̈́̈́́͂̌̃̈́̎̆̄̽̉͗̌̓̈́̑̾͒̍̈́̔̈́̽̀̅̓͊͛͑̈̉̈́̌̔̑̀̓̀̆̃͋̒̊̐̆͋̿͌̀̔͗̄̏̃͋̅̆̈́̀̽̈́͋͐̈́̄͒͐̃͋̋͂̄̃́͌̉̉̾̆̈́͛͌́́̑͑̉́̇́̃̾̏͛͛̓́̀̔́͗̈͘̚͘͘̕͘̚̕̕̚̕̚͜͜͜͜͜͝͝͝͝͝͠͝͠͝͝͝͠͠͠͠ͅͅͅͅ ERROR DATA STREAM CUT // System is sapient]
Well that doesn’t bode well… You okay there buddy? This shit is getting spookier and spookier…
[System is fine host, thank you for your concern]
Uh huh… so what are those blueprints you mentioned? Also you might be a program but can you please stop with the answer colon thing? Just a normal answer would suffice.
[Understood, Blueprints are informational data on any and all theoretical, fictional and actual technology witnessed by the Host. These blueprints can be used by the Host as a guide on their subsequent creation]
You said fictional? Does that mean I can build a lightsaber or something?
[Correct, though Host will have to procure the means with which to build said items]
Holy shit. That's broken as all hell! Please show me the blueprint! Even if I can’t build it yet, just the pure technological information on display should be thousands of years ahead of anything I’ve ever seen!
[Initiating data transference]
And I'm back to black. What felt like a minor eternity later I reawakened. Holy hell my head hurts, it feels like i’ve had the worst headache of my life plus a hangover with a concussion on top. System… What happened?
[System transferred selected blueprint to Host, the subsequent stream of information overloaded the Host’s current mental faculties leading to blackout until 33 seconds prior]
How long was I out? Also I’d appreciate a warning if something like this is gonna occur again please.
[Host was unconscious for 3 months, 12 days, 8 hours, 14 minutes and 27 seconds. System understands, Host will be warned prior to any information upload in future that may cause Host blackout]
3 months?! If i’d done something like this outside of the womb I’d be deader than a doornail! Well live and learn I guess… speaking of, the blackout had sucked but I really had received all the info on how to make a lightsaber! I mean it was far beyond feasible to make currently, just the heat control technology to not make everything within 100 meters burst into flame was ludicrously advanced… civilized weapon my ass!
It seems I’ve got a bit more growth now, I feel like I can at least move a bit, still gonna be here for a while though… let's see if I can make a friend.
Hey system! It seems we’re gonna be stuck together for a while, do you have/want an actual name? I don’t really care what someone is but I'll treat anyone regardless of origin with respect if they’re truly a free thinking being, also there's no need to be so respectful, i’d rather you be my friend instead of my slave.
[System has no preset name, only the designation ’system’, System would be grateful for a name. . . System would also like to accept the Hosts offer of friendship]
Only designation system?.. Well that's kinda sad, from now on your new name shall be… how about Mimir? The name of a figure of great wisdom and knowledge seems a right fit for you! Also enough with the whole host thing, friends call each other by name so just call me Sam. Let's get along Mimir and take this world by storm!
[Thank you for the name Ho-. . . Sam. Let's get along and take this world's storms?]
Hahaha close enough! Now is there anything you want to know? I know you have all the juicy information for me, but is there any information you’re after Mimir?
[Processing. . . I would be interested in Human culture and social information, this is currently the only area I am woefully lacking in data]
No worries I’ll fill you in, so I’m assuming you don’t know what sarcasm is? it’s when-
5 Months later
And that's why you never trust a van that says it contains free candy!
[Interesting, what if said van actually contains candy?]
Even if there is candy it’s only there to lure unsuspec- Woah I feel like i’m moving? Sorry Mimir I’ll have to cut this conversation short, we might be about to be born.
[Correct, are you sure you wouldn’t like to know your current gender?]
No thanks, it’ll be more interesting this way. If anything I’m more interested in who my parents actually are… I know my mothers name but that doesn’t actually tell me much. I hope they’re better than my previous ones though that's a pretty low bar if I’m honest. All right Mimir if you could please?
[Initiating Order 69]
We’d talked about this earlier, birth is a beautiful process… but not something I really wanted to experience, either as the one giving birth or being birthed- so Mimir had proposed knocking me out just before the process and waking me up once I was out, needless to say I was more than happy with that arrangement. “See you on the other side”.
[See you then]
And for hopefully the last time the world went black. A short while later and I could see a pinprick of light which was slowly getting larger and brighter. Hello world! I really hope you’re better than my last one.
