-Scene Cut-

When he woke up, he no longer was on that damn hospital bee, but he was lying on a cold floor, surrounded by this weird liquid- He was in pain still, but he was used to pain already so he ignored it and tried to move his body. He thought he was lost, or rather, hallucinating again on that damn hospital bed! He couldn't move his muscles anymore and could only wither away as he died an agonizing and slow death by the hand of his own family! He remembered having a pretty good life, his family loving him and doting on him when he was younger, but as he grew older his younger sister started to go out of her way to get their parents attention and make them mad at him for some reason.

It first was about boring ir normal things, like not taking out the trash or making a mess out of his room... But it grew from there to stupid things, like him stealing something, or him driving drunk, to him trying to kill his sister for something stupid like jealousy. He didn't understand why!? He never did any of that, and never got an answer for that... If only he knew that his life was but written by a sadistic author that wanted a character to serve as canonfodder for their protagonist in a trashy face-slapping novel that didn't even had 10 chapters, unaware that once you write about something- It becomes reality in another dimension or universe of your own. But how can mere mortals not understand that what they write becomes reality? That is something they'd never understand or even believe in!

The novel didn't end, but the intent of the author was to have rhe canonfodder suffer from an uncurable disease that would slowly rot his insides as the protagonist of that world would flourish and become something greater than she could even believe! Well, now this mere canonfodder by the name of Ezekiel Burmound, was officially reincarnated by one of the reincarnation programs of the Omniverse, the [Omni-Canonfodder Reincarnation Program], a program that was designed by a great mind to collect every soul of every canonfodder of the omniverse to be reincarnated as protagonists of other stories or in other universes, and as protagonists they would create new canonfodder that would become protagonists, and thanks to the [Omni-Protagonist Reincarnation Program], the cycle repeats itself for eternity.

Right now Ezekiel was surrounded by corpses, various corpses, many corpses.

He was in a chamber? Yeah, possibly underground surrounded by corpses that were bleeding a mercury-like liquid, he looked up to the sky and saw a ray of light descending from somewhere, that was when his vision adjusted and adapted and he knew he wasn't underground like his comfused brain first thought- it was a canopy of leaves closing the sun! He was in a forest, a deep, deep forest. "The fuck...?"

"Huh... Okay...?" He looked down at his strangely healthy and big body and thought 'Status?' At first he thought the same voice would speak, but then a floating black screen with white letters popped up:

The weirdest thing happened to him once he read it- He felt this tinglinf sense of being watched and instantly his body reacted, even before he could think and moved out of the way as a man jumped from behind him, then he felt two different needs- To run and to fight. He scanned the man's presence and suddenly various types of information filled his brain- He knew what kind of move the man would make (He would roar at him), he knew if he chose to run he can run at the fastest speed but he also know if he wants to fight he can easily overpower and kill the man before him, thanks to his [Emotional Control] skill he easily calmed down even though his heartbeat was faster now- The man before him was bleeding a mercury blood, like all the corspes around him, and Ezekiel -Or was it Vincent now?- knew that he was dying and was desperate to survive, to thrive, to live!

The man had talons for fingernails, feathers on his arms and a tail behind his back that looked like that of a lion's, his mouth also had sharp teeth of that of a large feline. The man roared towards him before he leaped, Eze- no, he won't use that name anymore, it brings bad memories! Vincent dodged to the left while the man's claws passed by, he lunged at the man to headbutt him as he felt was right and a horn grew out of his forehead and impaled the man to the chest. The horn was long and thin at the end but thick at the base, not keeping a consistent shape nor girth- The feeling of killing something is incredibly boring, because he felt absolutely nothing.

Plain and simple nothing.

"Huh." However, he felt curious at the horn on his head rather than the man impaled on it, so when he moved his head the mercury blood fell on him so he had to retract the horn from his forehead back into his body before taking a look- He knew, he somehow knew what an Unholy Nightmare and Holy Unicorn were. Like their names and the skills he received suggests, an Unholy Nightmare is a demonic horse predator that hunts through the nine hells, eating the flesh and blood of demons, they're known to serve only the strongest of demons and enjoy the touch of the omce pure but now impure. Holy Unicorns are the complete opposite, they serve the kindest souls while loving the redeemed, those who seek their redemption often find Holy Unicorns that descend from the heavens to help them in their journey... Well, they are really, really, really rare creatures. They are as smart or even smarter than human and speak the respective languages of their realm, they are seen as esteemed steeds worth the servitude and quite picky on who they take fancy of.

Males of the species are more aggressive once mating season starts, keeping their mate chosen mate away from other possible competitors. From the Unholy Nightmares came the usually quite common Fire Horses and Demon Horses, while from the Holy Unicorn came the Unicorn and the Pegasus. And they're horses... They have 360° vision for some reason, they can use magic to heal and wither, purify and corrupt, cause fear and comfort to those around, and control their respective forces- Aether and Nether. The creation and destruction, life and death, two sides of the same coin.

Also, did you know they both mate for life and have 1 child per millennium? It's why they're so rare, and a hybrid between these two is impossible because they despite each other and keep their distance from one another. So, how did he come to be?

Dread Doctors, they captured Vincent D'Arcy Angelo, then a 14 year old boy who had liver cancer and needed a transplant due to the risk of the cancer spreading, but he was captured from his home, they made several different experimentations on his blood and flesh to see which kind of side of the good and evil spectrum he was more... Attuned for, let's put it like that, and to their utter shock and amazement, he was a a neutral soul! So, he was the perfect vessel for their masterpiece, the combination of both life and death, good and evil, Unholy Nightmare and their Holy Dream of making the perfect creature... It failed.

The preparations took three years, it was an endless torment and torturous existence that the boy just wanted it to stop, so he was 17 and when they put both genes and magic of the two extremely opposed creatures and- His spirit was too weak to resist, so both the spirits of the Unholy Nightmare and the Holy Unicorn tore his spirit, his soul, to shreds, killing him. They threw him away on their little trashcan in the middle of god knows where, disappointed with the results... And then Ezekiel came in, a perfect body for him who had a perfect [Plot Armor] that pulled him into the greatest of destinies...

Right now, as the mercury blood drips from his face, Vincent decided...

He will enjoy this life just a little bit, okay?

-Scene Cut-

The butterfly flaps its wings, and fate changes, nothing is nowhere to anybody anyhow anymore.

The only certainty is that something certainly is certain in this uncertain situation- Vincet is dumb and his brain too.

Because- "Fuck!" Fire was coming out of his hands as he tried to wipe the off on the grass- the dry grass.

Setting an entire forest on fire!

"Well... Unholy Nightmares do bring misfortune and death where they go so..." Vincet wiped the sweat out of his head with his burning hand, wincing when he knew he had to do something or else the whole forest would burn to the ground and become just ash, killing a few hundred or thousand animals. "Rain would be good right now!" He was trying to see if he could control fire, since he can generate heat, but even though he knows he can, it doesn't mean he's good at it! "Water... Water... Keep calm and picture water." It took him a moment, but with [Meditation] and [Emotional Control], he calmed down and pictured the clearest image of water he could.

A waterfall.

"Oh no."

Those were his words before a waterfall-like curtain of water began to fall from the sky above him.
