Chapter 1: Unexpected explanation

Edited by: Arthur300000 

On the third day of the second week that I had been asleep, a person appeared flying near the ceiling to my cell. At first I had thought that I was going crazy, but as I asked who it was, he answered clearly. 

"I am someone you will probably hate, or worship" At this I gave a very confused expression as I began to notice that the area around me distorting.

It was a second later that I had found myself in some sort of white blank space, and it took me another second to notice that I wasn't the only one here. 

People, they were all around me in this empty place, but not just a small group, you could compare this place to the mall on boxing day, only people were rather confused than angry savages. After a brief moment of just people talking, that flying person appeared, and I noticed that he looked rather odd wearing some type of white long coat that looked too big for him as he looked around the size of a kid.

"Greetings mortals, I know many of you do not understand what just happened to you, but as you can see, you have all been transported along with many other people that you know nothing about" He stood silent as many started looking around. 

People started to talk and it began to get noisy within seconds. 

"Now now, settle down, I'll explain what's happening." The Person had a hood covering the his face from the lighted blank area, but it was easy to see that he was smiling.

In the next moment, he rose his hand towards the whole lot of confused people, and we all began to flash oddly. This made many people begin to whisper and talk. 

"As you can all see, this is what most of you mortals in your world would call "Supernatural", but in the world I have come from, this is often known as magic" He lowered his hand as he again spoke up "What I have just now done is bestow upon an ability to use your talent in your old world in a peculiar way, however this talent will reflect on your skill and ability with it. If you have multiple talents or capabilities then you may choose one on your own, how you gain it is up to you" The boy lowered himself as a white large flat part of the surface rose for him to stand on.

"Many of you will have to find your own way of attaining power, as in the next second all of you will fall into another world with the ability that I will bestow on you all, but before you go, just take note that some of those abilities are not magic, they are refered to as skills, you will see for yourself what it is you do with it", After he had said that, I could hear that some people in the crowd didn't sound too happy to hear that. 

"What the hell are you saying?!" 

"Explain!!" 

And even more things were said afterwards, the kid on the surfaced white flat area rose his hands as to quiet us down. 

"I should have explained before but due to my impatience I guess I got too carried away, I'll explain" The kid crossed his arms as he was about to speak. 

"You should take note that you are no longer on Earth, the reason for that is because I had brought you here at random, and if you are to ask how I would be capable of such a thing, all I will say is that I am a god" As he claimed to be a god, I heard people all around me to let out small gasps of astonishment. I myself was also  suprised among the many individuals surrounding me. 

"On my own ideals I thought about giving either a gift of some sort to you that are either suffering or living the life that you've always wanted, but please note that this world is just as difficult as your own, maybe even harder. All the choices you make will reflect on your own life just like the world you lived in before" People began silently talking while he was still explaining stuff.

"Well, thats about it, there isn't anything I have else to elaborate, any questions?" 

Most of the people around stood quiet for a moment, but thinking about it simply made me want to ask, so I rose my hand like I was in a classroom and the supposed god noticed me and signaled me to speak with his hand. 

"Um... What if there are people here that have no talents, or that have no profession of any sort?" I asked quickly as everyone looked at me. I could say I was feeling a bit sheepish. Just a bit. 

After a second or two he quickly opened his mouth to speak once more. 

"Good question, As most people do have talents, some have hidden talents that they have not yet found, and those that don't have anything whatsoever, the last resort to the ability that I had bestowed will take the thing you want most and create an ability that well fits them, at least thats what I know of it. Are there any more questions?" Some of the things that he said made people a bit afraid of what would come next. 

As I was zoning out and thinking about these "gifts" that god was talking about, another asked a question. "Is there anyway to return to earth?" the guy asking the question had a shaky voice as he said that, many could see that he feared something might happen. 

"Hmm, no, I don't know of a way out other than summoning. If you get an ability to move through dimensions then maybe you could, who knows?" After saying that, the god began to smile wickedly. 

"So cease all of this pointless questioning, you're all going to go, no matter what" He pulled down his hood to reveal blood red eyes like that of a demon, and horns began to form on his head.  

The wicked smile and eyes made him look like a crazed lunatic, however, I don't think he's the type of god people would think he is. At his appearance people were bewildered, I could notice some were on the ground crying, and after the first few seconds had passed people began to slowly lose their minds. At least thats what I thought. 

"Are you Fucking with me!? Theres no way in hell I'll do as you fucking say you shit! Put us back where we were!!"

People demanded to be returned but the god-claming demon kid didn't do anything but smile, and all I did was simply watch with an impassive expression on my face. I saw that there were others like me and some were quite disturbed by the appearance of the demon god kid. 

After a brief moment of only screams and shouts aimed at the god, he then spoke, with just a word to silence everyone. 

"Hey...." With a smile he rose his right arm and with his hand faced up, his fingers pointed at the one that shouted at him in the front.

He rose his finger up with a flick quick enough to remove the head of the man, the sudden movement shocking everyone around.

"I specifically told you all to stop asking questions, any more and I might have to kill whoever speaks up next" People were now definetly afraid of the being standing in front of us, I could even smell shit in the air as people were currently shitting themselves as of this moment. No one dared to speak any more as the god had ordered, his face made a wry smile as he moved his hand again facing an empty area within the bounds of the blank dimension. He had created a portal in a matter of seconds. 

"This portal will take you to the other realm, as many of you will be passing through this, those who wish to go back can stay... But if you do, expect great regret to fill you soon" most of the fear-shaken people had moved towards the portal, those that stayed were little, I , like most, moved towards the portal. 

Before the first person had even touched it the god said one last thing. "Don't expect to see me anytime soon, but I will be watching all of you" It was the last part of the sentence that sent a chill down most of our spines. 

I was getting closer to the portal and as soon as I touched it, it sucked me in.
