|In a dark room|
A young-looking man and an old man were facing each other, the young man was pointing the handgun in his left hand at the old man who was sitting, who seems unfazed and was not minding the gun that was pointed at him.
"So this is your choice huh, 'Tobi'."The old man said with a calm voice to the young man known as Tobi.
"You forced me, old man," Tobi replied
"....why? why would you do that?" Tobi continues while still maintaining a cool face but there are some sadness and anger in his voice.
"I'm just trying to protect us!" The old man rebutted.
"Protect us? or protect you?" Tobi asks again with a shaky voice.
"That girl was a problem, I can't let you throw away all of our suffering and effort just for some slutty woman!" The old man couldn't help but lose his cool as he raises his voice.
"She has nothing to do with this!" The young man also loses his cool as he also raises his voice.
"She has! she changed you, you are no longer the same person that I raised."
"Raise?...hahaha HAHAHAHA if forcing 10 years old to learn the way of killing was raising to you then you need more practice in raising a child. " Tobi said with disdain
"If there is someone who could teach me about that stuff, it is not you" The old man answered back
"We share a dream, Tobi, and it's not a thing I would just let you throw away!" The old man continues meanwhile Tobi just stood there silently.
"Do you think you could just leave behind your past? this is what you are Tobi, a killer, a criminal, a person worse than scum."
"And do you think she will still love you when she found out who you really are?"
Hearing the old man's words, the more he hesitated he slowly put his handguns down.
Seeing this, the old man's mouth curved as he continued.
"But since you love her that much..." the old man pauses as he slowly reaches behind his back while Tobi was still off guard.
"...then you should go after her at hell!" the old man added as he pull out the gun he was hiding behind him.
*BANG*
As if the time is frozen, the two men just stare at each other. after a while, the older man falls on his back while Tobi's handguns' muzzle was smoking.
All of it just happened in a moment. even though Tobi was unprepared, he still manage to pull the trigger first due to various reasons.
Tobi just stood there, still shocked at what happened but later compose himself as he took one last glimpse at his father figure, the one who raised and feed him.
"sigh..." Tobi sigh with mixed emotions as he head on his way to the door.
As his hand was about to touch the doorknob, he heard a little bit of movement behind him.
"cough...cough..."
He quickly turned his back as he saw the old man and what he was holding, his eyes widen.
"!!!" Tobi was surprised as he saw the old man holding an unpinned grenade.
He tries to run but alas, he was already too late as the grenade explodes, killing them both.
|In a distant Universe|
'how long has it been?' Tobi said or thought as he no longer had a mouth or even a body, all he was now was a soul floating in the vast universe.
After the explosion, Tobi found himself in a place where there is no light, a place he first thought of as hell.
Tobi only found out he was in space as he run into asteroids and stars.
'hayss...I think I finally lose my sense of time.' he continues when suddenly a blinding light appeared in front of him.
"Wha-" Tobi doesn't have time to reach as his surroundings changes.
In front of him was a huge golden castle that could beat any castle in existence in size alone.
Tobi felt a strong urge to go inside the castle and just after a dozen seconds, he couldn't resist it anymore as he head inside the castle.
Inside the castle, everything was made of gold, the floor, the ceiling and even the furniture. in the middle, there is a long stairway and at the top, there is a huge throne where a man in his eighties sits.
"Come, lost soul," The old man says as Tobi his soul move on its own.
"W-who are you?" Even though Tobi was known as the world best criminal, Hitman, etc. In the face of people who have powers, being scared is normal.
"No need to be scared, I'm just here to talk" The man replied as Tobi slowly felt a soothing sensation as felt his fear slowly banishing and a relaxing feeling filled his body.
'What is this?' Tobi questioned the strange phenomenon that took place in his body.
"Its my power" The man replied as if he read his thoughts.
"Wha- did you just read my mind?" Tobi asked the man.
"Indeed, but if I were you that's not what you should be concerned about." The man answered as he swing his hands and then suddenly Tobi appeared in front of him.
"What are you?!" Tobi asked while his face was full of shock with a little fear.
"That's a thing I also wanna know" The man answer
"Well, even though I don't mind chatting with you here for a little longer, we needed to hurry or else your soul would crumble." The man says as a table suddenly appears in front of them.
"Sit" He added
Knowing that retaliating was impossible, Tobi comply as he sit down in front of the mystery man.
"Well, I know you're still confused but I'm here to say I wanna offer you something you couldn't resist." The man said which got my attention.
"....what kind of offer." Tobi asked with an interested tone.
"As you know, you are already dead so I am here to offer you a new life. A life where you'll continue what you left behind." The man offered.
"what do you mean 'I left behind?' " Tobi asked
"Well, I will reincarnate you in another world to do what you failed to do in your original world, World Domination!"
"World domination?" Tobi's eye shone but quickly dissipate.
