1 Chapter 01: Prologue 01

Before we begin our story. Lets start at the beginning shall we.

Somewhere deep in the void, one unsuspecting soul is about to get his life flipped upside down. Well as soon as he has a life to be flipped then yeah, anyway shits about to go off so kickback for a bit.

Back to the situation at hand, our hero, or part hero anyway, is slowly but surely, is sleeping soundly making his way down the slow winding, river of illuminated souls. Just like the rest, he slowly makes his way to the gates of the afterlife.

Closer and closer, time passes, on the horizon a wheel can be seen, arguably an impossibility seeing as where in the middle of a voidless nowhere and its pitch dark as well, to hell with it though I'll just run with what I see.

Our hero can now be seen waking up. Ever so slightly.

His eyes pop open. He looks around to see his surroundings. A little shaken by his current situation but slowly calming down. Coming back to his senses with his head slightly hazy. He mutters in a soft voice.

... : "What's going on". I say to myself.

(My head hurts), I thought.

... : "Hello". I call suddenly. An idea pops into my head.

... : "I'll take a large, half decaf, soy blended coffee, no sugar, with a double sleeve please".

... : "Said no one ever, out of the blue". I say to myself.

(my head must be broken or something, I think I'm going crazy), I thought.

... : ...."Hello". I repeat. Audible only to the other souls around me

(Silence).

... : ...."Yeah, great start to my day".

: "Agreed"

... : "WHO THE HELL WAS THAT". I scream. Clearly startled by the voice which came out of nowhere.

:"IT WAS ME". the voice screams back. Although not in an aggressively overbearing way.

..."Why are you screaming"? I say. Taking a minute to calm down and focus on the voice more intently.

: Ah

: "Well, you started it". the voice reply's. In a joking tease.

: "HAHAHAHAHA"(All Might Laugh). A boisterous laugh echos in the void.

... : ...("Whats up with the All Might Laugh"), I thought. I can now see the outlook of where or who the voice was coming from.

An old man, with a long white beard and a bald head. His face shows the aging and wisdom of time. His eyes radiating a look of days gone by. Calm, is the only word I could use to describe them.

: Aahh

: aha,ha ... ha

: "Moving on". The old man says with the awkward reaction he was getting from with all his enthusiasm.

... : ... "Yeah, now don't tell me I can already guess but am I"... I trail off a bit at the end there but the old man can still see the intelligence I possess through the look in my eyes. He smiles a little at that.

: "Smart Boy"..."I'm sorry. Your a boy, right". the old man asks. A look of confusion on his face.

... : "Boy, yes". I reply. A little hurt that he would think otherwise.

: "Right, Boy". "Right". the voice asks again, for confirmation.

... : "YES"!!!, I reply, screaming out of frustration.

: "Ok, Ok". "Sheesh". the voice says.

... : "DON'T SHEESH ME"!!!, I scream now, a little angry that he doesn't believe me.

: "Right". "Sorry, kinda hard to tell when your all clumps of white lights". the old man said truthfully.

... : (Irony of being a soul), I thought. I start to calm down, I take a breath.

: "Anyway, on with the show, first off yes your dead, secondly, no need to fear, thankfully you got lucky kid". the voice says, like I didn't already know I'm dead.

:"Also, Congratulations, you have won an opportunity and shall go on to progressing straight through towards the wheel of fortune" ... "and reincarnation, yay".

: "The names Bob, by the way". he says

Bob: "The Re-builder", "Hahahahaha". the old man calling himself Bob now says with an expectant look on his face, as if to show off how great his name is.

(Silence)

Bob: "Re; like reincarnation, and then builder". he clarifies. With an awkward smile on his face

(Silence)

Bob the Re-builder: "Wow, tough crowd". Bob says with a little sweatdrop at his attempt to get a laugh out of me.

... : ... "I laugh on the inside". I say. A deadpan look, plastered on my face.

Bob the Re-builder: "Just a little Bob the builder joke for you, kinda break the ice a bit".

(metaphorically speaking of course). Bob thought.

Bob the Re-builder: "Haaah. Moving on".

... : ... "Please do". I say to Bob too tired to comment anymore.

Bob: "So I assume you already have an idea of what has transpired so far boy". He asks me.

... : ... "Soul". I suddenly say.

Bob: Huh

Soul: "Just call me Soul for now" , "Forgot what I was called before". I reply truthfully. My head still a little hazy.

Bob: "Oh, of course, as you wish". He nods at me.

Soul: "Ahem, Introductions first then", "It is nice to meet you sir". I give a slight introduction.

Bob: Ah, "the pleasures all mine "Soul". He reply's. A smile on his face.

Bob: "Now, I assume you have already realized it but-

Soul:" I'm dead, I know". I cut him off, pointing out the obvious matter at hand right now.

Bob: "Yes, like I said, it is with great sadness that I regret to inform you of so.

(my fault to begin with), Bob thought.

Bob: (But he doesn't need to know that), he continued.

Soul: ... "I get the feeling this is your fault, for some reason". I say as I stare at him intently.

Bob: Ah. (Shit), Bob thought. Sweat dropping at the look he was now getting from me.

Bob: "Ahem, ah so lets get to it shall we"(nervously).

Soul: Mmmhm.

Bob: "Death is a tragedy, but also therein lies the potential for Hope".(that sounded cooler in my head). Bob thought.

Bob: "In your case-

Soul:" Reincarnation. Right" I say. Like it was soooo obvious.

Bob: "Exactly".

Soul: "Do I get any benefits". I ask, expectantly.

Bob: "Few Wishes, I guess".

Soul: "A system".

Bob: "Best in the Multiverse"(so far), Bob thought.

Soul: "Yeah, I don't buy it", "what's the catch, there's gotta be a catch, right"? I ask suspiciously.

Bob: *"I encourage you strongly to do the following.

((Live a life worth living, grow to be whatever you want to, fight for what you want, whether it be the pinnacle of the worlds power, or a life as a normal working civilian.

Enjoy every moment of every second that you have. And be grateful to not only walk among the earth, but to reap the benefits that she offers".))

Soul: "Live, Grow, Fight, and be Grateful huh".(Smile)

Bob: ..."Not so bad right". he says

Soul: ..."Not so bad at all". I reply

Soul: "So where would I be reincarnating to begin with"?

Bob: "Naruto World as a start, I guess".

Soul: "The old Anime/Manga/Novel ship huh".

(There goes the normal life option, I guess. Naruto's world is a pretty good start though), I think with a bit of excitement.

Bob: "I can also think of a couple other worlds to throw in there, if you're thinking of world travel"

Bob: "Maybe One Piece, Highschool DxD, Fairy Tail, Bleach, yeah definitely Bleach, maybe Marvel or DC in there, possibly".

Soul: "Marvel's pretty legit"!!!(excited).

Bob: "MCU".

Soul: "MCU".

Bob: "You seen Endgame"?

Soul: "I seen Endgame".

Out of nowhere we both say at the same time.

Both: "That was the SHIT"!!!. we exclaim

(no spoilers)

Bob: "I guess we'll see what we can do when we get to that point".

Soul: "I guess we will".

Bob: "Alright then, follow me".

As he says this, I start to really take in and look back a little at all that has transpired since my death, guess my memories are back. Still can't remember my name though, but I'll stick with what I got now.

Let's take a little background trip shall we.

My name is Soul. I am or was a 25 year old working adult with no clear path ahead of me. Although I say that I am a working adult, its not exactly the most note worthy position to have, Mc'D*****s Employee, at 25, I know right. Not that I'm complaining or anything.

Since my parents passed away when I was 7, I was put in an orphanage until I was 9, where by some stroke of luck I was adopted by a very lovely elderly couple who didn't come off as wealthy, while on the other hand not being far off from it too. Not that I cared much for that, I was just happy to leave that damn place, it sucked and that's all I'll say on the matter.

Edward and Leila or Mr & Mrs Cambridge, as they are publicly known were there names, which also made me Soul Cambridge(sounds weird). I later go on to find out that this elderly couple are the leading founders and brilliant minds of C.R.R Enterprises, the worlds leading business in Construction, Engineering, Fashion, Sciences and Technology etc. They did have kids and grand kids of there own so I don't know why they would think of adoption, must be a rich people thing I guess. I got along really well with everyone so I was happy.

The shock faded after a while because of the culture change, then came excitement, but also a bit of nervousness. As soon as I found out about how awesome these people were, I wondered if I deserve to be in the presence of such influential people.

Going from a common working family, to an orphanage, and just when you think it couldn't get any better, it went beyond better and straight through to un-frickin-believable. So it took a bit of adjusting to really get it settled in that I am where I am today because of them.

The nerves slowly faded after a while as they turned out to be the most loving and caring people I will ever have the pleasure to know and eventually come to love. They didn't force me to do anything I didn't want to do against my will or anything like that, and supported me through anything and everything that I wanted to achieve. And this time, it was my turn to shock them.

Turns out, I'm am/was a genius. As in, a 1 in a million genius that will never ever be seen again.

Let me just sum it all up for you in a little here.

Smart, Handsome, Physically Endowed, among other things, but just to name a few. Not to brag or anything but I was pretty well off for the average person. I never let it go to my head though. I always treated others the same way they treat me.

There was only 1 mystery I couldn't figure out in my life, that is-

(of all the skills and capabilities, as well as the funding and support I got).

Soul: HOW DID I END UP WORKING AT MC'D*****S!!! I scream. The clouds suddenly became dark on my way home, after I finished my shift at work. I think it was raining. A flash of light passed through my vision. I'm guessing that was a-

BOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMM

I blank out at what happens next but I have a speculation that this old man has something to do with it.

Bob: Achoo!!!

BOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMM

Soul: "WHAT THE FUCK"!!!

Bob: "Sorry , didn't wanna cut your little dialogue there but I think someone was just talking about me". he says.

Soul: "Aha, what about that little planet that we just passed that you so happen to sneeze on and cause it to blow up"? I ask with a look of slight disbelief at this god's antics.

Bob: "My bad. I'll have a talk with scoop,muck and dizzy". he says.(and so it begins)

Soul: "What about Rollie". I question. Playing along a bit.

Bob: "Rollie too". he answers back. A slight chuckle following his reply.

Soul: "Lofty and Wendy". I say with a smile.

Bob: "They can join the crew". Now he's chuckling openly

Soul: "Can they fix it". I ask.

Bob: "Probably not, but for comedy sake-

Bob: "YES THEY CAN"!!! His shout echos throughout the void. I think I saw a few planets shatter into dust because of the old mans scream. Shit.

Soul: "STOP YELLING"!!! I yell while covering my ears. Even though I got no ears to cover, or no hands to cover them with but It was still pretty loud. I could tell cause my soul shuddered a bit. Were I still alive, I wouldn't even have time to think of how I died before I vaporize into nothingness.

Bob: "My Bad". "Gotta be careful when your a God, your sorta prone to break things easy". the old man says with an awkward and apologetic look on his face.

Bob: "I'll get those planet's fixed up later". Ha says while still looking away. But if I saw his face now, I would see a little brush that shows he was embarrassed.

Soul: ...(Wonderful). I thought. A look of tiredness on my face.
