Nobody likes metempsychosis , well if they do there is something fundamentally wrong with them or they just like the feeling of being squeezed, torn apart and pieced back together plus the superhuman torture of staring into an empty space for days, months or maybe even years. Daniel definitly wasn't counting, not like he had a way to. 

He should have just taken the bus he thought, remembering how it started. It was a busy week at work and he was finally rewarded with some free time and he decided to have fun partying, it was all going fine until James decided to pick a fight with a bunch of strangers. Well, he being the good friend he was tried to stop the fight until he didn't. It didn't really matter how it started or how he got dragged into it, in the end Mr.Stranger decided to pull out a knife and James definitely wasn't intimidated. Long story short, he was stabbed more so by accident rather than it being planned murder. Should have just taken the bus.

Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.

Daniel wasn't a believer in afterlife but he wished he was now considering that he had been in this strange space for enough time to be driven to insanity and a little hope would help. After what felt like a million years he found himself or atleast that whatever no-physical maybe soul was left of him infront of a glowing sphere and when he reached out to it it simply moved into him as if it never existed. Well that definitely wasn't his way out, he thought. Not so long after he felt himself drowning and being squeezed and this time it was more than just a feeling.

"Qthg uigb yufui ougv guihkjhg hiolb" he heard. No idea what that meant, when he tried opening his eyes he found himself in the hands of a giant surrounded by a few more giants in a greyish world. It's not the world that turned grey, it was his eyes which saw the world in black and white, he realised. He reincarnated.
