SI POV

I have always liked to watch movies, tv shows and read light novels, comics and fanfics, I was always called a Nerd, a lazy fellow and unmotivated, I was a chronic procastinator and always found excuses not complete any task, projects and assignments given to me, I always found it difficult to pass my exams because I would always start studying at the last moments, about a day or two before the exams, therefore I was always unprepared for any questions that come out in the exams and always failed or got poor results and hence I was a headache and disappointment to my parents.

The major things I was good at agriculture, latin, java, medevial history and facts. I was also a huge fan of GRRM books and its subsequent tv shows except for season 8 of the Game of thrones series, also a huge fan of the Nasuverse and everything involving them. However I was run over by a truck while walking by the raod, going home from my part time job during the weekend, I was listening to music and my eyes were on the phone and I did not see or hear the truck until it was too late.

Dying by way of truck-kun can be very painful sometimes, some die instantly while some can die without pain while bleeding out, I was one of the few unlucky fellows whose journey to the next great adventure was filled with pain. When I was hit by the truck, I was thrown into a huge transformer by the roadside then electrocuted to death by the high current which slowly roasted me to death, I was paralyzed and in severe pain unable to even scream out, my eyes popped, my brain melted and I twitched a lot while dying, it was not a good way to go and I do not recommend it to anyone.

After such a painful event I blacked out and died, I considered that as a mercy compared to what was going to happen next.

I gradually woke up in a void, it was dark and filled with other lights, I tried to look at my hands and down at my hands and discovered that I was not able to do so, it seemed that I was also one of the orbs/lights, there are hundreds of lights and a few would appear among us every once in a while, it was boring and tiring to just stare at the orbs over and over again for a long time.

I was not able to close my eyes for I have no eyes, I was not able to hear anything for there were no sounds, I was not able to feel anything for I have no skin, and I was not able to sleep for I had no brain and I could not get tired, I began to hate this void because of the emptiness and silence, to prevent myself from going insane I began to remember and think upon my memories, my family, my regrets, my joys, my pains, all that I have read, watched, learned and heard, I did it over and over again, I think that as I was just a soul now, I only had my memories and could not forget anything, I was even able to clearly remember the way I died including the pain and everything else after a relieving all of my memories a few times.

In order not to go insane, I began to meditate on all that I have learned and thought up all sorts of ways to apply them, I also thought of how to understand them and modify them, my creativity grew to very great heights all because I didn't want to go insane, after those ran I began to meditate on my interactions with people and those went wrong and what I should have said, I thought of family, would they cry for me?.

I confronted everything about myself and all the mistakes I made, all my flaws I refused to look at before, I exposed it myself so that I could meditate upon it, I gave myself a very thorough introspection, I confronted all my fears and acknowledged all my issues, I also acknowledged that I was even though I was technically improving myself, I was doing it just to prevent myself from going insane.

I ran of things to think about and then I repeated this process over and over again, in order to prevent myself from going totally insane, I began to zone out and just thinking of nothing and the void around me trying to feel and if possible feel the other lights, doing so a very long amount of time only coming out of the meditation to see the state of the light around me, I knew that a long time have passed as the number lights around me increased by a large amount each time I woke up from my mediation, due to the void and the meditation I became very patient and my will became stronger because I kept refusing to go insane, I just hoped and even prayed that this would end because this was almost hell, I believed that it was not hell because if this was hell i would be feeling a whole lot more of pain in my situation, to me it was more of a purgatory.

A certain time later there was a sudden change in the void, there was a flash of red lightning and for the first time in almost an enternity I heard a sound, the sound was like thunder, a massive figure like a magnificent statue of gold appeared in the void, it opened its mouth, which looked completely dark like the void around us and sucked all the lights including me into its mouth, I entered into the mouth and there was complete darkness around me, the darknesss then vanished and I saw myself on a massive stone stage, I looked at the skies and saw it was red, on the stone stage lights began to appear and changed into people, I became very estatic as I saw this, there are finally people around me and I have also escaped the void, Iooked down at myself and also saw I have a body now.
