A Glance at What Could Be

(??? POV, ???)

Bloody Hell, has anyone caught the plate of the truck that got me?

A headache hit me like Miley decided to reenact a wrecking ball in my skull.

It didn't help that a bright flash of light suddenly blinded me just as I was able to open my eyes, making me stumble upon an object.

"By Mordred's flat chest" I couldn't help but curse.

Finally getting my bearings as I struggled not to fall over again, I stared curiously at god knows where I was. The area I was in looked fancy like I just stepped into a theater from the early 20th century or something.

The seats had plush red padding, with armrests that looked like they were made out of solid gold.

Hell as I looked closely I could see intricate carvings in each of the seats close to me, each showing a different art.

One had a man leading a team of soldiers out of what seemed like a trench. Another had a man who looked oddly similar to the first one signing a paper with a group of men. The next one had the man sitting on a throne made out of what appeared to be stone overlooking various self-important cunts kneeling.'

Every single seat had the same man but in different clothes and what appeared to be different settings.

What baffled me was that the man looked so familiar, it was like I should know him but I couldn't make heads or tails of it all, why was that?

"It's weird that you don't recognize yourself" I did not scream like a little girl and you have no proof.

Turning towards the voice, in front of me stood er… sat a humanoid figure, it seemed to be made of stars, and tens of hundreds of stars seemed to fly in odd patterns around his body, it looked like a galaxy given form.

"He… not it, kid" The entity said.

"Who the hell are you?" Immediately clamping my hands onto my mouth, realizing my mistake.

I stared at the galactic humanoid in front of me, a bit worried at his reaction.

"Relax kid, if I wanted to hurt you, you wouldn't be here" Seeing the confusion on my face, he chose to clarify his words. "Look, I was bored and decided to do something fun"

"What does that have to do with me?" Looking at the entity in bafflement.

"Everything kid, everything"

An awkward silence followed that, honestly, I had no clue how to respond. The entity didn't seem to mind it though.

"Ahem, could you explain please?" I asked.

"Fair enough, I'm what you would consider a Supreme Entity, a god you could say."

That revelation left me near catatonic, wait does this mean I'm dead, why am I meeting God, isn't there like an angel supposed to tell me all my sins or good deeds, wait did I commit something and I couldn't remember it… 

The god noticed my panic attack "Relax kid, you aren't dead." I felt myself calm at his words. Leaving me baffled by it since I was pretty sure I was going through a panic attack just a few seconds ago.

Ignoring my confusion the entity continued "Alright, so you know about the multiverse theory right?"

I nodded in response, I think it was some guy named William James who came up with it, it was part of my history course. "What does that have to do with you being bored?"

"Well, as you know from your readings, ROBs like to reincarnate/transmigrate/transport people, right…"

"Wait, are you going to do the same to me?" I interrupted, pretty giddy about possibly getting to visit my favorite world.

"Not exactly, I suppose you wouldn't know it, but almost every ROB has their favorite go-to guy/gal to do it too, you just happen to be mine."

"But you haven't done so for me."

"Yeah, but I did for your alternate selves."

I couldn't help but deflate, I mean don't get me wrong a part of me was happy for my alternate selves but it would've been much better if it was me instead.

"No need to look so bummed down kid." he said.

Ignoring his admittedly pathetic attempt to cheer me up, I stared inquisitively at him "If you aren't going to yeet me somewhere, why am I here then?"

"Let's start from the beginning, first you aren't dead."

"Really?" I stared at him suspiciously.

"Aye, instead of being an asshole and letting you die, I decided to freeze time in your world and made it so that you don't age while here, that way when you eventually return you won't have aged at all." The entity explained.

"I see, you still haven't explained why you brought me here though."

Ignoring my question again, "This theater is an area I like to use to peer into important events, watch anime, movies, porn, and the future."

"Wait, what was the last one?"

"The future."

"No, the one before it."

"Movies."

"No, the one after it."

"Anime."

"God dammit man, don't think I don't know what you're playing at"

"I have no clue what you're on about brat." The entity shrugged, before looking at me ominous "You see child, the r%6*3&s demand entertainment… and you my boy are that entertainment."

I shuddered at that tone "Jesus christ man, don't say it that way."

"Say what that way?"

"You damn well know what I meant." Again the entity shrugged and moved on.

"Why do you care what these r%6*3&s think and what's the point in all of this?" I asked confusedly.

"Several reasons, it's fun, it would be interesting to see their reactions to the possibilities you face and I'm bored." This made me nervous, was I going to die if these r%6*3&s weren't entertained?

The entity "Nothing's going to happen to you man, I'll just archive you and throw you in the vault." that answer worried me greatly, what the hell was this vault? And will those bastards r%6*3&s be entertained?

Choosing to get to the point the Entity then said "Basically we're in my theater so we can watch different universes revolving around your alternate selves."

"Why my alternate selves?"

"You're so insignificant, if someone were to try and point you out on a street, you would be unrecognizable, that makes you moldable, someone with a keyboard could turn you into anything they want. The possibilities are endless really and that makes you entertaining." the entity explained.

I honestly had no idea how to feel about his words, on one hand he said I had potential, on the other hand, he had essentially called me a nobody.

The entity then clapped his hands, seemingly having gotten impatient with my questioning "Do please take your seat kid, so we can get this show on the road" he then turned to the entity knows where and smirked at something? "Don't worry my guys, we'll be making the occasional appearances" he then looked at me for a second before ending this chapter with an "I hope you enjoy the show"

The curtain slowly began to rise, and the screen showed static and I found myself plunged into the abyss.
