Chapter 0 - Glistening Irresponsible Overseer.

Glistening, a figure stood upon a cloud that only moments ago had been drizzling the entire world below with water. In each and every area, the same thing happened. A huge cloud enveloped the entire sky and 'cleansed' the ground with its waters, before a heavenly figure showed itself. The normal, everyday people could only be stunned in front of the majestic and somehow imposing figure.

No one had to look long to figure out that the figure differed from them. With a face seemingly chiseled from stone, his cheekbones high and prominent. The man’s skin had the complexity of jade and looked to even be smooth to the touch. Hair, a shocking leaf green color, framed his perfect face. The green color only setting off and pulling out the lighter tones hidden behind his eyes that could only be called royal purple. Even though he was just wearing a simple button down shirt and simple pants, the man gave the clothing a feeling of grace and confidence.

The silence was only broken when the figure opened his mouth. Every word resounding in the ears of the crowd gathering below.

"You have disappointed me. Each and every single one of you, waste of space pieces of garbage, have disappointed me. I have given you a world to care for, but instead you have desecrated my gift to you. I gave you intelligence to better your species, but instead you use it to further degrade yourselves. You use it to kill each other. You use it to not work any harder. You use it to satisfy your needs before others. You use it to spit in my face!"

"I have decided that an intervention is needed. I no longer want to take care of your ungrateful species. The other Overseers and I, came together and decided you will all be taken to their various worlds as they have better uses for your lives. Instead, I'm going to start a new era of creatures who will better look after this planet."

After saying all this, the figure stopped talking as though that was all he wanted to say. Even the satisfied look on his face seemed to say so. A spark hidden deep within his eyes.

A silence descended only long enough for the people to let the words sink in. After a while, one of the many people couldn't take the growing rage within their hearts and shouted at the figure all the words blazing within.

"What the Hell! How irresponsible! If you're the one who made us in the first place, then shouldn't you have made us be the way you wanted at the very beginning? And now that we're so 'disappointing' to you, you're shipping us off to be someone else's problem? What are you? A child who has gotten bored of its toy and throws it aside to have the grownups clean it up?"

Encouraged, the rest of the group started to spout their opinions as well.

"You come out of nowhere and tell us what we've done wrong, but don't even give us a chance to better ourselves before you ship us off! What a heartless bastard!"

"A kid like you shouldn't even be given the responsibility to look after an entire species. Go back to your mommy and have her take over your job, if you're too immature to fulfill your responsibilities!"

"Waaaaaaaaaahh! Waaaaaaaaaaahh! Waaaaah! All I hear is a baby crying."

"Seriously! You're just going to abandon us after letting us grow into such an immense society. Why did you even bother making us in the first place?"

"If this is how you treat us, I feel bad for the next species you create."

Many comments continued until finally it seemed the crowds were exhausted. Not even murmurs could be heard as everything was already out in the air.

The figure's face remained a bored statue as each comment was made. He only lounged down and started inspecting his nails as if they were more important that the complaints of the people below. The only sign that he might have been bothered in the slightest by what the people said was a single crease between his brows.

Yawning, the figure finally addressed the crowd again.

"Are you finished? Yes? Good. Well now that we have gotten the complaining out of the way, onto Explanation Part 2."

Did you know this text is from a different site? Read the official version to support the creator.

At that, he reached into his pocket and pulled out a crumpled piece of paper that was folded several times. He then grabbed out a pair of glasses and began cleaning them, as if to piss off the crowd even more. Delicately placing them onto his ears and balancing them lightly on his nose, he then began to unfold the paper.

Clearing his throat, the figure finally began again, "Now I know after hearing my speech, if you missed it, I will not repeat it, you are more than likely a little, tinsy bit pissed off at your almighty Creator. But worry not, I am not so heartless as to throw out my beloved children (heh) out into the grimy grasps of some other Lorde without something to help you (because it is more interesting that way). Plus, I realize if all of a sudden you got thrown into a different world, more than likely, most of you would die."

"To combat this, I will give you various gifts that increase your measly chances of survival at least a little."

"The first gift is simple, I will give each of you a bag that can carry more than its small size would make one assume. For those of you wondering, no it is not infinite. It is simply a 10 ft by 10 ft by 10 ft space. For you, math incompetents, that would result in 1000 ft cubed. And before you ask, it does not make the items weightless. The bag will simply reduce the weight of its contents to one tenth of its original weight."

"Within this bag, are your next gifts. A book that will roughly describe the world that you will be transferred to (written by yours truly). It will even update itself when you learn new information useful to you. You will also find a status plate within your bag. This will help you later on so that you can better get used to your new bodies."

"Oh yeah, speaking of new bodies. I forgot to mention that since you are transferring to new worlds (some of you might have already assumed this), but these worlds don't all have humans living there. So to make it easier for you to assimilate yourself with the new environment you are going to slowly morph into one of the various races that live in those worlds."

At this, an uproar started once more. Only this time it was quickly hushed as the figure continued speaking over the protests.

"Did it really not occur to any of you that the worlds you might soon be living in are inhospitable to your frail human bodies? Consider me turning you into a race that can actually survive on one of those planets a gift. It could even be called the one that increases your survival rate the most."

This time the protesting affected the figure more as a slight downcast to his face appeared. Sighing, the figure then folded the paper back up and put it once more in his pocket.

"If you don't want to know more about my gifts, fine. I will finish this up quickly then. Each city and its surrounding suburbs and towns will each be sent to separate worlds. If you want to go to the same location as someone else, simply form a party with them. The location the party will be sent to will correspond with where the party leader was originally going to be brought to. My advice though is that you don't form too big of parties or else you may all lose your lives. Next, you will not be leaving right this second. A total of three days is what you have to prepare yourselves for what is to come. Over these days is also the time frame that each of you will transform, so I suggest forming parties early on because your form may differ depending on where you'll end up. Be aware, the longer you wait the less time your body has to change and the more painful it will become. This transformation will happen in your sleep so don’t be surprised to wake up looking different than the day before. And no, if you don’t sleep you will end up transforming while you are still awake. Which trust me, will be painful. "

At the last word, the sky cleared and the figure disappeared leaving with a complicated expression on his face. A muttering of ‘Good luck’ so low none of the people below could pick it up with their ears.
