4 Nope.Don't want that.

A few hours earlier, inside the soul's memories.

The soul and Vita are standing inside an airport. People walking around with bags and whatnot. A large voice announcing which gate is open and which is about to close.

"Where is this place? It seems familiar."The soul said. "Before something happens I'm going to explain how this works." Vita started. "Each lifetime will have what we call, Impact Points. They are literal points in your life that will have a memory that sticks with you. It is either as big as trauma or as small as seeing a butterfly fly."

"You're telling me that this place is an Impact Point for me? How will this return my memory?"

"Just wait, it is better to experience it than explain it," said Vita mysteriously.

As the soul looks around the place, he is starting to remember something. He couldn't point his finger on what it could be. Then, screams were heard, people started running and panic starts to rise from the crowd. Shots were being fired from the store that vita and the soul were in front of. "We have to help them! Let's go!" The soul exclaimed. Vita just looks at him sadly.

The soul went and tried to help an old lady that fell down after trying to run away. As he crouches down, arms about to touch the old lady, his arms just went through her. The old lady with fear in her eyes tried to get up. Another man came up to her and help her get up to leave. As the soul looks at the man, his eyes widen up. "Dad?!" The soul was surprised. This was his father. But he died when he was---

"Dad!!" a small voice screamed. The soul looked behind and saw a 5-year old boy with tears in his eyes, red from crying. "Just hide!! Come on, ma'am. We have to get out of here." The man said with a calming smile on his face. He helped the old lady get up. As he was helping her get up, someone emerged from the store with guns held up. He points at the man and the old lady.

"STOP!!" The soul stands up, arms raised to block the gun but it just went through him. The bullet gets the man and the old lady. "DAAAAD!!!" The little boy screamed and attempted to run to his father. At this moment the police came through and stopped the boy right on time before the gunner pointed the gun at the boy and shooting.

The memory stopped and fades to black. The soul still raising its arms, tears on his face. "My name is Oswald. I was 5 when I became an orphan." Oswald said through tears that started flowing from a while ago. "I'm sorry," Vita said. "We have a lot of memory to go through, but we can stop and rest for a little."

"I'm fine," Oswald wipes his tears and looks at Vita "Let's go."

Oswald and Vita saw various memories of the previous life of Oswald.

When he had his first crush. When he fought a kid for taking his lunch. The most awkward or traumatizing was his first intimate night with someone. "Vita look the FUCK AWAY!" Oswald screamed as he remembered how awkward this went. "What is it with you? This is just procreation. This is normal. In your standards anyway." Vita said. 'I am the incarnation of life, do you think this will faze me?' She thought with an eyebrow raised towards the scene before her.

(There won't be a lemon scene here. A little risqué but not lemon. I think.)

Oswald on the other hand started paling and sweating bullets. He watched on as his memory-him started to remove the clothes from the girl. He saw that her chest was almost flat. He didn't mind he liked the behind better anyways. They kissed, as he caresses the girl's body. But as he starts to remove the pants, he felt a bulge.

"Oh my," Vita looked at the soul with a teasing smile. "Seems like you made a mistake somewhere sometime during this night. Or I didn't just didn't see your interests in the same se—"

"STOP!!" Oswald screamed with a red face. The memory stopped when the memory-Oswald was about to scream because of the bulge he felt.

The soul-Oswald is covering his face with his hands from shame. If he could cry blood right now he would cry a river worth of it. "Oh hush you, there are googols upon googols of worlds out there. This sort of thing is just normal as long as the two species have the capabilities to consent and intelligent enough to know the repercussions of their doing. There was even a case when two worlds collided. A dragon from a magical world and a human from a normal world with no magic fell in love with one another. Both are females and are now happily married. It was a real shock since the dragon was the princess of the dragon king. They were at war with the humans at that time as well." Vita said

Oswald stared at Vita, he then raises his finger to point at one of his posters. "Ummm, do you mean them?" He pointed the poster of an anime with a dragon maid and a normal human. (If you know it, I see you are a man of culture as well)

"Oh, it is them. So they appeared here as a show huh?" Vita said curiously. "Does that often happen? Or are worlds created after being imagined by someone?" Oswald asks. "Not necessarily. Sometimes there are people whose minds travel to worlds and they retain some of the events of the world. There were even people who not only make their experience into an entertainment piece, they remake the whole events."

Oswald wants to say something but he still sees his memory self still mid shock in front of the "girl". "Can we move on from this? I really don't want to be reminded anymore of what's happening next." Oswald says with his face in his hands. "Why? What happens next? We should take a look." Vita said teasingly. "Come on. Stop that, let's just go."

—————

Memory-Oswald went to Japan where he started his job as an accountant. His employer, however, lives in the countryside. And that is where he got hit by heatstroke and passed away.

"So that's it? I lived until 20 and died before I even started my first day at a proper job." Oswald said with a sad smile. "You look sad but for some reason, I feel like that you are satisfied," Vita asked. "I am, or I was. I was satisfied, I only did what I wanted and made sure that I go by with my morals. Even though I became an orphan." *sigh*" Oswald said. "But you could have someone if you had gone with her and you didn't stop." reminded Vita. "Nope. Don't want that." Said Oswald with a deadpan face.
