Chapter 0: Into the dark

               While lying on this bed with my family around me I realised that this life was incredibly boring so boring infact I felt... unfullfilled. like whats the point of life if nothing ever happens and you just die at the end having done nothing important, yes i've done the basics to live life but it wasn't a challenge and there was no reward. It was all expected. All of this happened like it was supposted to like there was no other way for it to happen because whatelse is there.

               these were the thoughts going through my head, I knew what was happening I was dieing and in my last moments I realised that I was becomming unfullfilled not satisfied with my life. I remembered than what I read while bored (there was a lot of being bored) that ghosts were the souls of the dead that couldn't move on, maybe thats what's happening here I am unsatisfied with my life so I stay a ghost. then I remembered that it wasn't the unsatisfied people that stayed as ghost but people with attachments. My life is comming to and end I did all I could with life no attachments, but I am unsatisfied. Does this mean something else? I am so tired now I'll just close my eyes for a bit now.

               after death I expected nothing, or something less like this. I floated there over my body. Am I a ghost? No, I'm a spirit. I don't know why I know, or even what the different is but that is how I know. I watched as they buried my body still tied to it, still bound to the world. after I was buried I felt a pull of sorts from the ground I think anyone who read a fantasy book would call them ley lines, but they feel more like spiritual conduits or since I am dead a more apt name would be the highway to hell. once I was in the stream of what felt like spiritual power, I felt this since I am a spirit now, it pulled me all the way and I was rocketed off to wherever I was headed. the colors were so fast and I was everywhere and nowhere all at once, I promptly passes out. when I came to I was sitting in a dark room with what looked to be a black marble for a floor, well really it could be anything for a floor I was never into building. there was a grey throne made out of wood at one end except it was all grey, a light grey and there was no one on it. Next to it however was a black robed man with a hood coving his entire face and he was holding a really long staff, wait no sythe. yep its the grim reaper.

               "So you are the reaper?" I said asked carefully. it took a bit but it stirred and look at me and it spoke "Yes, however my job isn't to kill people its to collect lost souls and bring them back here, people burried in the ground usually come by themselves for the ley lines bring them, I am really busy nowdays with people being cremated and spread of fields or released into the wind. like really you felt how you were bound to your body untill you buried right?" I nodded "well it's incredibly difficult to collect them when they are bound to an extremely large area. at least with the vikings I knew where to go to collect them" he mummbled that last bit but I still heard it. seeing as we were about to go into a silence again I spoke up "so why am I here and not with the rest of the souls?" this time he didn't answer instead a door appeared on the otherside of the throne and it opened letting in an old man with robes adorned with skulls and he spoke "you are here because no matter what I do every time I reincarnate you normally you end up whole again, usually when someone is hole they have attachments and become ghosts but NOO you are just not satisfied with life!" he sounds incredibly annoyed "so heres the deal I have finnaly come to the conclusion you don't fit on my world so I am sending you through the universe and having you goto a dear friend of mine she can have you, she is always bored anyhow. and yes I am god and yes there are multiple gods and no there is only one god for earth I happen to be all of them, the greek was when I was trying to lighten my workload by trying a split body technique it didn't work out how I thought the shinto was simmilar but instead of direct contact with one another we tried to keep distance and only talked when we needed to and now here I do that but instead we are less of a split body and more of remote control bodies controled by one person its really working, and yes my body is the reflection of the role I am taking over and no I don't have control over how I look you think I like wearing skulls? ever heard the saying "you are what you eat"? well its like that so if people believe I look like this I look like this" well guess a god could mind read and answer all my questions "no its not mindreading you don't have a brain to read you're just a spirit right now. but yes I could do that if I wanted we are just waiting for her to come pick you up. well to answer that question your soul is more powerfull then the rest of my flock because every time you die you stay together and grow more powerfull each time its a good thing for you really you would be smarter have a healthier lifestyle and all that. however she needs a powerfull champion and since her world uses those spiritual powers as magic you would be a prime candidate for hero or champion or whatever she needs for you take care of. also if you happen to remain whole after you die over there you would be even more powerfull the next time around even more so then here."

Then a door appeared much like the other one had except this one had a doggy door on it

and then a cat jumped through the doggy door flap and spoke... yes a talking cat "Wow you did say you had something interesting for me, are you sure I can keep him?" the cat said. "just consider payment a favor for later" 

then the cat jumped up grabbed the handle of the door and it opened and it sucked me into it and I blacked out instantly before I could see anything else.
