Chapter 1

Have you ever thought what death would feel like. Would you feel unbearable pain and sadness or would you see your whole life flashing in front of your eyes. For me personally, death felt... blank .

But before we go into that let me introduce myself.

My name is Damian. I'm 17 years old and am currently in my senior year of high school. I'm what you would call a model student. I have high grades and am also good in sports. I don't mean to be narcissistic but I think I look pretty good with my pale face, silver hair and red eyes. My physique is built like an Olympic swimmer. All the teachers love me, I'm pretty popular as well and my parents are proud of me.You could say I have the perfect life. But...even after all this I never really feel happy. The only times I ever really feel happy is when I read my story books. I love fantasy stories. Stories where the protagonist flies freely in the sky, crosses oceans and mountains. I long for this kind of freedom.One of my most favourite stories is twilight. I mainly love it because of one character, Rosalie Hale. I really admire the fact that even after having such a tragic past she remained strong even though it would have been so easy for her to break down. She could have hated all men and it would have been justified but she chose not to blame others for the hideousness of a select few. How I wish I could live in a fantastical world....

-LINE BREAK-

Monday morning when I was walking to school I heard a noise from the alleyway. Curious I looked inside and what I saw made my blood boil. Two burly guys were trying to force themselves on a girl. I can tolerate a lot of things but one thing I hate with my very being is r****. The parasites that condone this act are nothing but cowards who think that forcing themselves on an innocent is manliness. At once I walked up to those the guy who was trying to open her shirt and without giving him any time to react I grabbed the back of his head and slammed it into the wall. The other guy tried to punch me but I dodged and then grabbed his outstretched arm and twisted it painfully. He screamed and without pause I punched his throat. The girl had already run off by this point probably to call the authorities but I didn't care I kept hitting the guy but in my rage I forgot to notice that the guy I had slammed into the wall previously stand up and lunge at me with a knife. He stabbed the knife deep into my back puncturing my lungs. With a cry of pain I dropped the now unconscious guy and fell to my knees. He lunged again trying to stab my throat when I grabbed his arm redirected it and made him stab his stomach. As I lay down struggling for breath in a pool of my own blood my mind felt blank. I did not feel sad nor did I feel regret. All I felt was blank before my vision darkened.

When I woke up next it was to a vision of white and a feeling of calmness. The strangest thing was that I couldn't my hands or the rest of my body. It was like the sight in a first person shooter, I could only see my surroundings. Then all of a sudden the scenery changed and now I'm sitting in a garden like structure in front of an old man who is drinking tea. The old man looked at me and said '' Hello Damian. How are you feeling ? '' '' I'm felling well. As well as you can feel after dying anyway.'' '' You are certainly very calm for a person who has died in your circumstances '' '' I don't regret what I did. Not dying would have been nice but what happened has happened.'' ''Hmm...well said. Do you know who I am ? '' '' I'm guessing you would be god or at least who the humans think to be god ? '' '' Close. I am the deity that looks over this realm. '' '' So are you going to send me to heaven or hell then ? '' '' There is no such thing as heaven or hell. That is just something you mortals came up with. The universe is governed by what we call the karma system. When somebody or something dies then their souls are judged based on the karma they have. If a person has a high amount of good karma then they lead generally happy and good lives in their next reincarnation and if they have a high amount of bad karma then they live an unhappy life full of misery. But if they can get a high amount of good karma then they can live a happy life in their next reincarnation and the opposite is also true.'' '' So I'm going to also be reincarnated then ? '' Ahh... but you are a special case. You see those who have a very high amount of good karma like saints are given the option to reincarnate with their memories intact. This allows them to generate a high amount of good karma in their next life as well. But what makes you special is the high amount of karma you have. '' '' How much do I have ? '' The deity looked at me with and odd glimmer in his eyes as he said ''179 million'' '' What!! How is that possible! 179 million karma for saving one girl!?'' ''Even the amount of karma from saving one life would have guaranteed that you lead a happy life in your next reincarnation. But the girl you saved later went on to cure cancer. Thus by saving her you inadvertently saved millions of life. ''

I just sat there in shock, trying to process the words of the deity in front of me. I didn't know that the girl was so special. I would have saved her even if she wasn't but it feels good to know that I helped millions of people with my deed. I looked at the deity and said,'' So what now ? '' '' Well since you have inadvertently saved millions and have such a high amount of karma you will be given the chance to not only reincarnate with your memories intact but also in the world of your choosing, including fictional worlds. You will also be given some wishes, within reason of course.'' Hearing this I was beyond happy. Not only would I be able to reincarnate with my memories intact but I will also be able to finally fulfill my dreams.Finally after putting my thoughts in order I said,'' How many wishes do I get and what is the limit of my wishes ? '' '' You will get 4 wishes. Also there are no limits to your wishes except for the fact that you cannot ask to become a god. Godhood must be earned, it cannot be given.'' '' I want become an original vampire hybrid like Miklaus from the Originals TV show. For my second wish I want to be able to change the physiology of a person. For example I want to be able to give a vampire the ability to walk in the sun, eat, age and have children without taking away their gifts.'' '' Your first wish is easy to grant. As for your second one you can have it but you will not be able to make the vampires survive without blood. You can curb their bloodlust but they won't survive without blood. As for children, then if a vampire female has a child then she will be a half human and half vampire during the pregnancy period. The child will also be a half-blood meaning that they won't need blood to survive. They will have increased strength and speed but they will not be immortal. Is that okay ? '' '' That's perfectly alright. As for my third wish I want to have the power [ Ability Creation ] and as for my last wish I wish to have the power to prevent seers and people with precognition abilities from being able to see me. They will only see what I want them to see. '' '' Granted.'' The deity snapped his fingers and four bell sounds rang out in the surroundings. '' Also could you make it such that I receive my first wish on my 10th birthday ? '' The deity nodded his head as confirmation and said, '' I wish you lead a happy life Damian. Until next time. '' The deity snapped his fingers and I felt a sudden pull on my consciousness until my vision darkened once again.
