What about Truck-kun?

'Death is a lot more peaceful than I thought it would be. I guess my parents were wrong I am not burning in hell for being an atheist. huh.' Were my thoughts when I figured it had been too long since I drowned to be feeling okay. "I wonder if I managed to kill that shark?"

"You were quite successful." A powerful voice says making me launch myself up and look around. In this dark void that I thought was just my metaphysical eyes closed, I see a creature approaching me.

'Oh, you're approaching me?' I think to myself before realizing the massive size of the being before me. 'He is like a badass version of King Neptune from SpongeBob.' The monstrous entity before me had a shark like tail with a humanoid upper half rippling with muscles bound like steel coils. He carried a trident that was equally massive and had a matching gold crown upon his long red brown hair that matched his beard.

"Solid beard bro." I said out of habit, I had almost never trimmed my beard after I left the military. One of those rebel like feelings after my enlistment was up.

"Yours isn't bad either." he stated his expression seemed a little proturbed that my first comment was about his beard.

"So are you here to finish what that shark started or something else going on?" I asked knowing I barely managed to take out that shark there is absolutely no way I can take out this 30 meter tall shark human hybrid with a trident.

"Not quite." He begins and I visibly relax knowing my next death isn't that imminent. "I am here to reincarnate you into fiction." He states with a proud smile.

"Wait, what about Truck-kun?" I ask disbelieving.

"You are not even Japanese." he says with a frown

"Huh, thats fair... So is this something you do regularly?" I ask curiously figuring if he hasn't struck me down yet he's probably down for a conversation.

"No." He says scratching his beard. "I rarely get people dying in the sea that are so dead set on their preferred after life to be reincarnation." I nod along. "I usually get surfer dudes who just want endless big waves. You do not count, you were a terrible surfer."

"Also fair, but give me a break my knees and back were garbage. Though I feel perfect right now." I state flexing and twisting like I haven't been able to do in a decade. "So, just curious did Stephan make it back to shore okay?"

"Yeah never set his foot in the ocean again. When he was 18 he moved to Nevada, in the middle of the desert to be as far away from the ocean as possible. Might have traumatized him a bit there." I nod again feeling a bit of relief i didn't die in vain.

"So reincarnation huh, do I get wishes and what not or anything?" I ask hope and excitement starting to get to me.

"As long as you keep to my theme here, I can use many powers but water is my domain."

"Well first can I ask if my memories will be kept and if I can have my choice in universe." I say already getting the groundwork of what wishes I would choose going in my head.

"You can set up your choice of universe and starting situation keep your memory and choose your looks. I will inform you that although i am immensely powerful I am not omnipotent."

"That makes sense I think I know what I want. I would like a mix between Harry Potter world and the Marvel Cinematic Universe. I would be born the same time as Harry under conditions that would fulfill the prophecy related to him I feel bad for the kid I want him to have a regular life so have Voldemort Mark me instead. After I'm through with school I would like to move on to the MCU things." I look up to this enormous Godlike being with a bit of Hope in my eyes as he nods and I shout "Hells yeah!"

"That's so awesome! I know what else I would like if it isn't too much trouble could I have my intelligence enhance to Peter Parker or Tony Stark levels whichever one is better. And finally to keep it on theme I would like the powers of Aquaman." As I finish i see him look down on me and nod.

"Go ahead and design your adult body." he states as a partially see through version of me comes up that I quickly make adjustments to.

I say "You can go ahead and throw me away as the base. Start with Jason Momoa and a little Ryan Reynolds no reason I should live ugly right?" after making sure I will end up being swole and shredded and packing heat while being a little taller than Thor at 6'4". I look up to the mountain of a being I think I'm ready to go on my new adventure. I ask "Whats your name by the way?"

"Poseidon god of the oceans seas and water." And I disappear as he points his trident at me with a grin.
