Chapter 3: A New Life Begins

In the air a paper flies in the air having the headlines say-

“Universe finally discovered! Finally space travel will be of the new age?!”

----------------------------------------

In a pitch black darkness, Gaizen notices he still has consciousness still yet, while the darkness envelops him

(Gaizen) “ Welp, I finally died…at least I went out in style...hopefully i can have some damn peace in my life, heh...I might even punch so called 'god' in his damn fa...ce??"

Soon, the feeling of waking up was felt which confused Gaizen. Thinking that he was finally up, possibly in heaven, ready to see his family.

He then wakes with a body that's completely unfamiliar to him, making Gaizen spazz out in shock

(Gaizen) " In the hell kinda shit is this!?! Sigh...lemme calm down lemme calm down, these hands are small as hell, a kid?"

Looking at the surroundings, it didnt look anything like a pearly white gate welcoming him to heaven. There was weather, a moody gray atmosphere.

(Gaizen) " It would be funny if i got reincarnated...on second thought it might be true. Well woppty fucking do!! Hahahaha!! that damn God must've been scared cause I threatened him! Anyway, seems as though im in some kind of damn shed, why in the world did i wake up in a fucking shed for? Sigh...."

He then notices how his body was extremely cold, as if it was just got out of a deep freezer type coldness, and is just now getting warmed up

With a hoarse cough, he kicks up black goo out from his mouth, it held the stench of moldy milk and old beef. The viscosity of it was thick and slimy.

(Gaizen) "This aching in my damn chest! Shit!"

Coughing again the black goo, he coughed up deep red blood too.

(Gaizen) "B-Blood?!? HACKH!! Dammit...”

He then passed out from the pain of having one of his arms broken and dislocated, some severe internal damages to his lungs and other organs causing him to cough up blood. He then wakes up 4 hours later and checks his surroundings and calls out some pointers,

1) He's in a little girls body, about 8-10 years old,

2) He sleeps in a pig pin……of all things, leading him to decide either this girl was killed, or really choose to sleep in a hog pin. He didn't know this worlds standards so he left that assumption alone for now.

3) He isn't in the same world as the one he knew of before seeing as tho he sees more then 1 moon, which had to take a minute for him to think on and reflect off of.

4) She was dead, for about 2 weeks prior to his reincarnation, knowing how the body works when it decomposes the Rigor Mortis takes affect sooner then one would think, and it happened at around 2 weeks after analyzing the already, oddly healed body, since he is a expert in knowing the dead body, even if it magically healed itself, he would know exactly when and how one would die and when Rigor Mortis has taken effect

(Gaizen) “Hmm...looks like she got beaten to death...I wonder why though, she was running to the point she would rather run barefoot, having her damn skin peel off from the bottom, then to stop and surrender....very concerning for my own damn well being. At least the damn pain subsided and I can hopefully use my legs….Humph!!”

He tried walking but fell down because of his leg injuries, now being able to have felling to them now

(Gaizen) “The hell! They must've wanted her dead for her to be as beat up as she is! I mean what did they even use? Bats? A damn vibrator??”

He takes a long, long, long ass Sigh. Calming down, he lied down on the hay he woke up on and stared at the night sky through the cracks of a degrading roof from a abandoned horse pen

(Gaizen) “Huh…. To think there's 5 moons interesting-!!”

(???) “Hum? Well! Well, Well? Looky here looks like another run away again? Say missy what’s yur name hm?

A man in a trench coat said walking up to Gaizen, holding a shovel while looking at him with a scowl, Drenched in the cold rain. He had a rugged face with a stubble, you could tell he tried to grow it out but couldn't get a beard to shape. His hair on his head was of a short length, long enough to be the length of a finger, with curls at the ends.

(Gaizen) “...Uhhhh..."

In his mind he thinks on what to say

(Gaizen) "I didn't expect this to happen so fucking sudden. Sigh...shit i need a name!! Ahh, that one could work! Gotta act like a child though...fuck my damn life"

(Gaizen) " My name is Raiza….yea my name is now Raiza…"

The man simply looks at Raiza with a blank face, turning his head in question

(Raiza)” ……”

(Rat)”……”

(Horse) “…..”

(Snake) “…..ss-“

(Raiza) “AH SHIT! Holy shit- a goddamn snake!!!”

He then jumped on the man not realizing, one he is now a girl, and two both his arms were damaged…..severely damaged, and legs. So taking the pain with a red face trying not to cry out in pain, he simply got off of him with a limp and lied back down on he bed of hay and straw and stared at the ceiling, trying hard as hell to not to cry out in pain.

(???) “Hm? Ahh ur arm isn't right and another one broke….”

He then leaned to his face to look at his eyes. Showing a perverted grin, which Raiza couldn't really take in since he's focusing on just trying to hold back a scream, he then picked him up bridal style and went to his house where he treated his arms, and legs. Something Raiza didn't notice since, well, he's trying not to cry. So he's just straight facing it threw it all. He got a cramp on a sore spot too...and that shit hurt. With all this, he couldn't really fight back or question why hes getting picked up by some middle aged man he just met, as long as he hopefully gets some help, hes all good.

(Raiza)” So, this is yo home huh…wow…it's uh it's a bakery? You don't seem the type to bake in my opinion....what's your name? If ya got any”

Raiza said with a sarcastic smirk, still holding in some immense sore pain as if its nothing to him.

(???) “Heh..well this is my shop, and this indeed is a bakery, and this is my home, and this is my job, for baking and lil lady, The names Geo....and I do have a name.”

Geo said in a paced manner with a smile looking at his bakery. He turns to look at Raiza with a questioning look

(Geo) “....You know you look familiar to someone….someone of royalty...”

Geo said looking at Raiza quizzically

(Raiza) “O-ohhh yeah I uh I get that alot,....I guess.”

Geo then kneeled down towards her face to specifically look at her green emerald eyes with a haze of blue, which he then starts to get closer, Raiza instinctively climbed up to his head and tried to put him in a chock hold, the thing is that he did TRY , but he didn't budge at all.

(Raiza) “...I'll uh i'll get down now…

With a straight face he only sits back down on the bed deep in thought about what just happened

(Raiza) "How heavy is he?? YOUR LUCKY I AIN'T GOT THE STRENGTH TO CHOCK YOUR ASS, calling me lil lady like Im some girl...."

With a slight cough from Geo he breaks the awkward silence

(Geo) “...So uh how's ur arm nd legs doin? I can see that ur pretty tough fer ur size, since your legs nd arms was pretty banged up there…?!”

Geo then turned around to see Raiza, crying waterfalls of tears suddenly

(Geo) ¨Wh- what happened?!? Is sumthin still hurtin ya?!”

(Raiza) ¨ Hell if i know..."

Sniffing up mucus he crosses his arms with his left leg crossed on the right one

(Raiza) "I'm good though…it just stings a l-!”

If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.

Geo then hugged Raiza tight in his arms, as if securing him from the safety of danger. Since Raiza, in recent years had forgotten such a thing as a hug, he embraced the man's arms almost instinctively. Then he fell asleep, since…you know...he's in a girl's body now, that of an 8 year old so he couldn't really help it. Time then went on, Raiza was now comfortable with this new world, and his new body and name. He had a steady income, a job and most of all a person who he looks up to as a father figure, since he is in an 8 year old girl's body.

And a close friend, since he is pretty damn old too, similar age he was when he was in his old world. Even though he sometimes gets annoyed about being a little girl, all in all Geo's nice to him, which he didn't get much niceness too often, but now he does in his new life.

He's nothing to strive for since everything is going well. The bakery is in a small town. You have people selling wood, some masonry stones and a farmers market. There was even an inn for those outside the town coming in to visit. It was a small yet trusted community where you could leave even your doors unlocked.

This was odd to Raiza, he wasnt used to this sudden change of an environment, where he don't have to look over his shoulder for anyone trying to either kill him, or shoo him away since he would be drunk most of his days. It was nice though, its hard to get used to of course but, it was nice. Seeing smiles instead of frowns all the time would make anyone lighten up. They were poor yet happy, something Raiza never saw in his lifetime.

But uk i cant let that happen for too long

Until one day he had some strange customer’s come with a set of conspicuous clothes on, you could tell they were a couple from the rings they wore over their fancy looking gloves. The rings matched and it was on the ring finger, making it quite easy to deduce that they were together. They looked as if they were trying to move around the place without being noticed but doing a bad job at it, as if they didn't know what a “commoner” would wear normally, their clothes was that of a high priced attire.

The man wore a overcoat that covered his feet, it was all black, his boots going to his ankles, his hat that was covering most of his face was made out of some really good , strong material with a insignia on everything he wore. The insignia was an eagle, having an Omega Symbol In its talons, It was all made of gold to Raiza eyes though, hell it probably was gold.

He had a mustache that was curled at the ends of its growth, reminding Raiza of Garfield, making Raiza chuckle a bit. His hat was a top hat, one you would wear around the late 1980's. With it was a golden insignia on the front, he wore it with a tilt making Raiza think that that type of style in this world looked way too out of place.

The man also had this scornful look on his face making Raiza think about the time when fate was oh so cruel and he was working with dead bodies and newbies not being used to the smell of rotten flesh. Raiza shook his head and smirked by how far he came and how good his life is now.

The woman wore a similar coat but it showed her feet, which was also pretty 'out of character' since their outfit looked like they tried to stand out and not get notice, yet their clothing made it seem as though they wanted to be noticed, which made Raiza question even more about how odd they were. Her hair was an eye catcher to Raiza though, the woman's hair and eyes looked almost similar to his or his new body in this case. Her hair was pretty bouncy and curly, the same type of hair Raiza has, also the blonde was really strong in her hair, the man was blonde also but it wasn't as bright, her eyes were also unique too.

Her eyes had this crimson red with a shade of green in them. Raiza could only tell when she took her shades off, the man was similar but had a hint of blue in them.

Her hair was long enough to touch her back as it swayed with each step she took. They were now at the counter, they called the man by a weird name Raiza had never heard of before, the people who usually come to the bakery call him 'Geo', but they call him "Mr.B". It was weird at first but Raiza paid no heed to it at all. Since he was behind the door cleaning he just so happened to overhear some things, so they didn't quite see him. “

(Man1) “ Mr.B I presume you've done the deed that was asked of you flawlessly….yes?”

(Geo) “...Not quite…”

With a loud abnotious scoff, the woman scowled at Geo

(Woman 1) “And they say you're ruthless with your prey!! How come the job didn't go as planned!”

He then looks behind him to see Raiza peeking behind the doorway, like a mouse Raiza backs away quickly

(Geo) “...There’s too many eyes ere, let's go someplace else, meet me at...”

After Geo had finished talking to them Raiza then came out to the counter.

(Raiza) “Um…so uh who were those people?”

Raiza asked with curiosity in his voice

(Geo) “You don't recognize em folks?”

In thought Raiza starts to think what he meant by that

(Raiza) “Ahhh damn! I knew something like me meeting this girl's parents or some friend might fucking happen!!”

Acting like a little girl he tilts his head sideways and puts on a girly high pitch voice

(Raiza) “Uh no...?”

(Geo) ” Hmm right....”

That day then continued on like usual, Raiza met some locals and some regulars outside the small town, cleaning the shop from the floors to the walls. Then that night, when going to bed he heard Geo walking around, at a fast pace, as if he was stressed out about something, which he usually doesn't do so Raiza got up, annoyed that he couldn't sleep and walked to the kitchen.

(Raiza) “ Yoo, so uh you're good right?”

Leaning on the doorway with his feet to the wall and his arms crossed, looking annoyed

(Geo) “Hm! Ah yes, yes I'm alright just uh just thinkin is all lil missy….you should go on to bed now i'm gonna go out for a bit.”

He then rubs Raiza's head, puts his coat on, and goes out of the bakery.

(Raiza) “ Ugh…pretending to be a child is too mentally straining...rubbin my head like I'm a damn child! Couldn't even sleep without hearing his ass walkin around...I always think why I'm a child and not an adult…so i can beat some ass here and there, but oh well. Sigh...But it does look like he's gonna meet them weird people which is pretty obvious….looks like I got some choices here….either I do what he says and go back to bed like a kid which im not, or i follow and snope like a model adult that I am….eh the other outweighs the later.”

So Raiza took his coat, put some pants on and some shoes and followed suit. He was able to catch up to Geo and followed him through places he usually sees, then the places he never saw, since he was mostly in the bakery. He went through a series of long abandoned tunnels underground, and into what seemed to be a cave, but wasn't. It was a dungeon,

> A dungeon is what spawns monsters inside or outside of it. It's usually a labyrinth with many layers both Horizontal and Vertical with many crevices to explore. The gem color outside

> the dungeon usually determines the level of the dungeon

They went to a secret path only known to few.

They then walked 2 1/2 miles inside the dungeon that Raiza didn't know he was in, and finally, they came up to this wooden cabin where it was lit with candles. Moss was growing around the edges of the cabin and even dew was dripping from the roof. It seemed as though it was built with haste, seeing how the wood itself wasn't really carved to perfection. In the cabin was the strange man and woman, Seeing that Raiza yelled a quiet 'yes' with excitement. Geo then went inside the cabin. Raiza got down on his knees and peaked through the windows to try and overhear the conversation

(Man1) “Ah, yes you're finally here it seems.

Taking a sip of tea, he sits back with his legs crossed, with a look of his patience being thin

(Man1) "So, please tell me how you weren't capable of killing that creature.”

(Geo) “....She came back to life…”

Geo said hesitantly. Mockingly, the woman laughs at Geo

(Woman1) “Puahahaha y-you think we would believe something like that!?! If you don't want to tell the truth then...”

(Geo) “NO! NO!! It's the truth!! I broke both her arms and legs, i even stomped on her with my horse, for around a minute or 2! On my pride and name….she died with my own hands”

Geo said with passion frantically waving his hands showing emotion. The woman scoffs at him slouching in her seat

(Woman1) “Ok, so where is she now since she isn't dead?”

(Geo) “At my bakery sleeping…she seemed to have lost her memory of what happened….I wasn't able to tell how far back she couldn't remember though, so I've been seeing how much she remembers, and she don't even remember my face or yalls, and she seems as tho she aint like her usual self-"

He puts his hand over his throat with his eyes wide

(Geo) " For that matter, I even had to talk in such an informal manner for that thing to not remember nor notice me if she could remember.

(Man1) “Ok, since that's dealt with, how are you supposed to deal with it this time around HM?

(Geo) “....You see, there's this deep pit in the middle of this dungeon, I tested it two days ago, I dropped a boulder down there and I didn't hear it touch the ground, even after around 8 hours or so i still couldn't hear it. So it's deep enough to kill even a Groven at its peak.

> A Groven is a mixed species of dragon that doesn't fly, it’s a land creature that has sharp claws and tough scales on its back, it's a territorial species that protects its territory. They hunt without a group making it vulnerable to its predators, once a Groven is hatched, the mother leaves it to fend for itself

(Geo) " That should kill it off without a trace of her…”

(Raiza) “O-oh my god!! I..I-I need to run!! Damn this body’s curiosity!!!”

While overhearing their conversation, thoughts came rushing into his mind,

1) This girl got people wanting her dead

2) He is now inside this girl's body,

3)...He has yet again been betrayed, and gotten snitched on like a rat would which made him both mad and sad at the fact that Geo might've been annoying, but he trusted him.

Oh how cruel the world can be

So Raiza ran, he ran and ran blindly in a panic until he couldn't no longer, only to run to the middle of the dungeon.

(Raiza) “ Ugh!! I...my luck man! Damn this hole is deep...”

Raiza said with exhaustion, with his hands over his face

(Geo) “That's your resting place, a place where you can sleep for more than you do work you know, heh….”

(Raiza) "..."

Raiza then grins crazily

(Geo) “But before you go down there, may I ask you for something? It's a simple request, I simply want your eyes!!”

He said with a sadistic grin running across his face.

(Raiza) “....Hahahahahaha!! To think this will happen to me for the Third time in a row!!! Hahahahaha!! I can't help but laugh at this situation!…To take my eyes you say? Wh-!! AHHHH”

Before he could finish talking Geo jumped to him at fast speeds and took what seemed like jewels being held in by someone who doesn't need them. His eyes was in the palm of Geo's hands as he stared at them, caressing them as if they were a baby

(Raiza) “AHHHHHHH!! My eyes!! You motherfucking bitch!!! Goddammit!!!”

(Geo) “What a file mouth you have, do you know why they call me Mr. B? It stands for the Butcher, look kid, it was nice having you around, but you gotta go….i'll probably meet you in hell soon anyway."

Geo then walked over to Raiza, who was wiggling on the floor still cussing and yelling in intense pain.

(Geo) “You know, you're a tough kid...if only you weren't born at this time, maybe we could truly become friends? Heh what am i doing….sentiments to an enemy do no good any way.”

He then kicks Raiza to the tunnel , hard enough to break a few ribs, and with one final kick, Raiza falls inside the pit, like a rag-doll that was once used now being thrown away.

Falling down in the pit, Raiza gives up. His spirit was broken once again when he thought that his second life was given to him, it seemed as though God really hated his guts

(Raiza) “ Heh… I once again gave my trust to someone I thought would be like family, and backfired at me…severely at that. Hehehehe, hopefully now I’ll finally die….Hell, hopefully I’ll touch the bottom at least sometime soon, i just want it over with already...."

So for what seemed like an eternity of falling was, in real time, 2 years of falling. He was then able to touch the ground. But by bouncing on a dead animal's body and landing on a stone platform.

(Raiza) “Ugh….my body hurts even more! I...cant do this shit anymore...cant trust...not a damn thing!"

Coughing hoarsely, blood comes out.
