1 1970

In a cozy living room, a boy and a beautiful young woman are facing each other, seated on their respective sofa.

The woman is reading a manuscript, with "The Bourne Identity" written on the first page. Second after second, she is intently reading it, forgetting everything around her.

Finally, after what felt like days for the boy, she closed her manuscript and looked up.

"Ryan, is it really yours ?" The woman said, using her glare to bore holes in his body.

The boy, Ryan thought about everything leading him to this moment.

He is now six years old, but six years ago was paradoxically his date of death too.

He died and came back to life.

In his previous life he was a 32 years old soldier, he got in the army right after college.

His dream had always been placed in Hollywood: fame, money and power.

Unfortunately, he never shined and the combined pressure from society and his family brought him to a computer science college.

Lost in life and with the foolish bravery of youth, he decided to enroll in the army, he got a pretty good spot with his college degree and started off as an officer in the U.S. Army.

As a chief engineer, he mostly stayed in the base and managed to cross his several years long engagement staying in one piece. It was not easy seeing brothers not coming back from missions but he was doing everything he could to support them effectively.

His death came at the most unlikely moment, not on one of his rare excursion on the battlefield or from an enemy's raid on their base but in an airplane, coming back home after retiring from the army.

While crossing a storm the airplane was shaking violently.

At first he thought nothing of it but when he sensed the gravity shifting and puling him forward, he knew, he would never make it back home.

"Mom, Dad ..." he whispered to himself, hoping they will be fine after his departure.

Next thing he remember is a flash of light and a lot of giants looking at him from above.

"Doctor, his my son fine? Why is he not crying?" came a voice from somewhere behind him.

"Yes, don't worry, he is looking around curiously and breathing well" the supposed doctor said, taking the reborn boy in her arms and checking his pulse.

"Wait ! Am I a baby again ?" though the boy, dumbfounded.

Years passed after this, the wonder boy, as he got called by his family, never stopped amazing his single mom. He pronounced his first word at 9 months, started simple phrases at 12 months and he got to walk at 9 months old. If not for his body limiting him so much he would have started running by this time.

He tried to look normal after this but when his mom tried to teach him English it got too boring so he 'learned' it perfectly by 2 years old.

What really shocked his mother though was when he requested books on other languages, in fact his 'learning' of English made him discover something very important.

After going through rebirth he gained eidetic memory, he can remember everything he ever saw or heard.

The really amazing fact is that this capacity of his cover his past life memory too so he have access to every film, book, lottery number and more he ever saw or heard about.

Using his perfect memory and the books from his mother, our wonder boy became well versed in French, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, Russian and German. It is just written mastery but it is already a magnificent achievement for a 2-3 years old boy.

The next four years where spent acting like a kid his age and studying like mad about the profession of film director. He never forgot his Hollywood dream and armed with the future's knowledge, he is determined to succeed, even if he have to seek 'inspiration' from some of his favorite celebrities.

His mother provided library's books for him to devour but even with his cheat like memory he must understand the meaning behind the book for it to be useful, it is not as simple as memorizing vocabulary.

Growing up he got to learn more about his mother, she is Amanda Anderson, a 24 years old brown haired blue eyed woman studying law at 'UC Hastings College of the Law' in San Francisco.

Thanks to his grandparents help, his mother can study without having to work part time and provide him a good environment to live in.

Ryan will never be thankful enough for his name, Ryan Anderson. He doesn't have his biological father's name and he is pretty much dead to Ryan, considering his hateful nature, escaping the moment he got his mother pregnant.

He is now in 1976, so he got reborn in 1970, he is head of everyone else by 43 years. At this moment he vowed to himself to use every advantage he have and shake the world, even if it means changing the future so much that his future knowledge become useless.

"Ryan ?" seeing him unresponsive Amanda asked again.

"Yes mom! This is my work, you are proud right ?" coming back on earth Ryan replied with a cheeky attitude.
