Chapter 1 (Deal With Death)

A soul slowly falls down to the ground the light slowly fades away while the group faded into pure night darkness. The light of the soul was absorbed by the darkness a hand of bone grabbed the soul. The weak flickering lights of the soul shows a skeletal figure with a robe made out of a thick cloud of smoke.

???: I can not let you move on if your soul is weak your soul is so weak it is slowly fading away on my domain. 

The soul flickered.

???: Ah I see you seem to not know what this place is or what am I.

The soul flickered again replying to the person on a dark could robe.

???: How about this do you know the tales about the God of death.

Death puts his scythe on top of the soul trying to scare but the soul did not move but flickered questioning death. Death puts it's scythe away and impressed at the soul.

Death: Hmmmmmm how come you didn't know about me I am death itself. Yet you don't have any emotions seeing that you don't get scared of my scythe pointing right on your body.

The soul flickered again talking to death.

Death: You are just a weak little soul that can't even glow like the others your the weakest one that I have seen I can barely see you. I am quite impressed that you lasted this long in the void other souls only lasted for a couple of hours. Yet you are still here even though you're barely glowing.

The soul flickered questioning death.

Death: well they fade away if they stay too long. How about we play a game I'll give you wishes if you last a year. A year in my domain is a decade in your world you'll be reincarnated again and again I'll be giving a thousand chances.

The soul flickered.

Death: Sure a deal is a deal I'm a god of my words. Our game will start now.

The soul disappeared in front of death. Death created a throne of black crystal death sat on his throne looking at the soul using his left green eye. The soul has been reincarnated as a new born child by death. While death is watching at the new born child he turned of his vision.

Death: we will meet again young one now back to work I still have a lot of soul form me to guide.

Death brings down the unguided souls a similar soul has dropped meeting death again the soul flickered saying hello.

Death: how the hell did you die so quickly!? You were just born a few minutes ago!?

The soul flickered answering to death.

Death: you were killed by the family dog really hold on just a sec.

Death takes out his scythe and summoned the soul cutting the soul using his scythe. In a different world where the soul was reborn the family dog that killed the soul fall flat dead in front of the parents.

Death: that karma for you piece of crap.

The soul flickered.

Death: that doesn't count that death is just a trial for now. Next time don't die that early ok?

The soul flickered again.

Death: ok now let's continue.

The soul did appeared again gotten reincarnated again and did not die quickly.

Death: I need to make a death log of that soul.

Death created a book writing the first death of the soul.

Death:"death number 1 killed by a family dog".

Soul: after multiple attempts, deaths, suffering, tortures at the 349th of my death I have done the challenge.

Death: 2 and 1 well done.

The soul disappeared.

Death: get back here and get your reward.

Death brought back the soul and congratulates it.

Death: you may now make your wish. Go on you deserve it you have my respect young one.

The soul flickered making it's wish.

Death: your wish has been granted wait. . .

Death accidentally snaps his finger granting the soul's wish. The soul changed into it's selected male human form.

Soul: hmmmm I guess I'm a boy this time.

Death: What the hell!!!

Soul: what's wrong?

Death turned into a human form.

Death: you wished to my power is shared with you!!

Death new body turned into a female human. Death created robes for both of them.

Soul: oooh comfy and warm sooo how did you turn into a girl?

Death: I am already dead and now I became a human and got revived because my soul is still in my skeletal body!

Soul: oh sorry about that I didn't know.

Death sighed.

Death: it's fine it's not your fault it is I who will take the blame I didn't think before acting.

Death "this is annoying I can not reverse this how do I handled this with the council? He has my left eye and I got his right eye and appearance are swapped."

Soul: I got an idea how about we both became siblings since we both shared the same powers.

Death: hey that am I about to say!

Soul: I hear that in my mind and by the way what do we do with the council too?

Death: one of the primordial gods who created me will be checking after a few years how can I explain this situation.

Soul: If the primordial gods will be visiting we could just pretend to be the children of death.

Death: I guess you are right about that we don't have any choices but first we will be needing a name. I can't say that I am death with this form on.

Soul: I have already deci-

Death: Jay you decided jay.

Jay: and you picked Loria.

Loria: Jay and Loria shinto.

Jay: Shinto siblings the children of death.

Both agreed on their new name.

Loria: you go on ahead.

Jay: you still have jobs to do I know.

Loria giggled.

Loria: shut up I already know go have fun out there you already know what to do let's become primordial gods and have a relaxing life after that.

Jay created a scythe and sliced the void creating a rift to another world.  Jay use his ability to change his robe into a hoodie adding jogging pant with a pair of rubber shoes.

Jay: hey one more thing that I need to tell you.

Loria: what is it?

Jay: I am glad to have a sister.

Jay smiles while Loria is confused and still processing what jay said.

Loria: your sister?...

Loria blushes heavily when she realized what jay said.

Loria: hey!

Jay jumped on the rift that he created going to the other side of the rift. After going to the rift it leaves Jay falling on the sky after falling for a while he landed on a massive lake.

Jay: "huh no pain nice but my body is badly damaged."

Jay's badly damaged body rapidly regenerated using his ability and using the ability to walk on top of the water.

Jay: *sigh* this is annoying but it's good practice.

A massive snake comes out of the water and attacks at Jay using it's tail flinging him through multiple trees. The snake charged at Jay but Jay created a slash that cuts the snake in haft in the middle.

Jay: jeez that cost way too many blood it's a good thing that I can reuse the snake's blood. Hmmm oh nice poison immunity and water breathing how do snake breath in water. Oh right it's a swamp serpent that's why it has poison immunity.

Jay's scythe disappeared into smoke.

Jay: well fighting I need to find a way to get stronger serpent will not do the trick I need to gather new abilities to get stronger.

Jay walked farther into the forest copying abilities of multiple different monsters after reaching a bandit camp. A couple of bandit surrounded Jay pointing their weapons at Jay.

Jay: hold on hold on we can talk this out.

The bandits talks in a language that Jay don't understand. Jay realize and use the abilities to understand and talk to different languages.

Bandits: he looks rich get him!!

 The bandits tried to attack Jay but all of the bandits heads falls to the ground.

Jay:"this person is still alive I'll leave her be she may be a threat to me. She's not from this world but first I need those bandits bloods."

Jay drained the bandits blood giving Jay multiple abilities and disappeared in thin air. A person appeared in thin air turning off her invisibility.

???: Why does he need blood my people's blood?

A bear sees her and tried to attack her. But the bear exploded in blood and guts falls to the ground. Some hair, blood and guts are still floating stuck on her silk threads.

???: What a failure it's not sharp enough.
