Memories

I felt like an eternity passed by, while I paused in the world. There was eternal darkness around me, and utter silence. I felt as if I would dissolve into this endless void.

Almost instantly, I felt a surge of energy flow through me. It reached the ends and extremities of my being, and I felt alive for the first time.

Like a bolt, I felt the memories flood in my mind, as the memories of a child seeped in, and got anchored in my consciousness.

I could vividly remember every speck of detail of these memories,, as they ran past my mind. I could distinguish each detail, absorb every single facet of the experience, even the bleached smell from the doctor's coat who was inoculating me with some chemical from a long syringe.

I saw as I realised this was the memory of the young Agent 47. I felt and absorbed all the bits and pieces, from the training, to the education, to the experiences, and even the last mission, where 47 died saving a girl, who apparently was his biological daughter with Diana.

I saw and felt and experienced these memories first hand, as if it was my life. I even felt the emotional response of 47, and his contentment in protecting his daughter.

I was now Agent 47, as I inherited every facet of his existence, his abilities, his memory, his life and his individuality. I could also feel myself thinking through my actions in my last life, and in passing over.

I realised how stupid I was, as I could have asked for an absorbing ability and skill like All For One ability, and visit Hitman world, and get what I asked for. I felt like an idiot, for missing the forest looking for trees.

I judged my choices and my priorities in my last life, and felt the folly in fumbling and fawning over trivial things, and missing out on life.

I decided to do better this time around, and armed with my new powers, I felt confident for the first time in my ability to adapt and survive my adventures.

I could also feel instinctively, how the serum and genes were affecting my physical being, and like a diver reaching for the surface of the stormy sea, I gasped and breathed the air for the first time in this new life.

Be careful world. I am here!
