Speeding Through Shadows: A Flash of Rebirth

The first thing I saw when I woke up was… literally nothing, like there was nothing in sight for I don't know how far, cause everything was so damn dark, I wasn't even sure if I had my eyes closed or open, thats how dark it was.

Eyes, wait shit I can feel my eyelids. The fuck, were are my arms!? After a mild existential crisis of where in the hell I was, I called down. Before this I was just you everyday ordinary first year college student studying web development and app design, now I know I wasn't the brightest but I had help from the only 2 friends I made their, I mean after highschool where I had a decent amount of friends with both genders it was weird, but I mean it makes sense right?

I was in highschool for 5 years, and it was only my first year of college. I enjoyed anime to some extent and I liked movies but after a while I stopped watching them cause I just felt that it was set in stone. But then I found fanfictions and like anyone I was hooked on quite a few because they were almost exactly how I wanted life to be.

Oh shit, I just realised my family?! What if I never see them again?! This scary like damn it just hit me that i'll probably never see them again. Well the only decent thing I guess is that now I don't have to constantly worry about one day waking up and losing them. Anyways my name was Matthew Quilt and I grew up in cape Town, I died at 18 from a car crash, I was hit but a car while waiting at the stop in the middle of the lanes where the stop light was, so why the fuck did I get hit aghhh. Anyways after that self reflexion, where the fuck am I?

Okay I don't know how long I've been floating here for but it's pretty cool and scary, I mean my memory in my life was terrible, like I couldn't remember my cousins birthday and had to ask people about it. But I guess since I don't have a brain I don't have limits anymore? I think? Eh, still pretty cool. Though it is pretty lonely here.

So I think it's been about 2 years since I've come here and I've gotten pretty bored because there isn't much to do but I did find something after a lot of effort and struggles. You may ask how a person without a body struggles and I would ask the same question back because I was just baffled. But anyways I realised that well I'm a soul floating in a void (I know pretty obvious) and I realised I can sense my surroundings, like I can do much but I have given myself arms now, so I guess soul manipulation on a minor level? It's pretty cool, I also realised that I can somewhat strengthen myself with the void, but like I swear I almost exploded the first time because I just like let it flow in and had no idea how I did it or how to stop it but I imaged I plugged a methodical bath in myself and it stopped, but since then I've realised I can observed the surroundings slowly and while doing so becoming more sturdy? Real? Or something like that. (Glad I fucking did)

One day or year I saw something and this caused me major confusion cause I hadn't seen light for who knows how long and so I thought maybe it's like those fanfictions where a ROB will finally come and reincarnate me. So like any normal person I rushed to it only to here a deafening shout screaming, "Who dares intruded on my plane!!!"

And then all I saw was a palm for white and the next thing I knew I felt tremendous pain and was sent hurtling god knows where. I was fucking terrified because how the hell did I feel pain without a body?!

Now there was a problem I was facing, I didn't know how to stop moving, like I thought that I would be thrown far away but I forgot that there isn't any friction here so yeah I was still moving.

Then I hit something hard and it sounded like glass shattering. 'Why did this happen to me? All I wanted was a nice life and all but then I thought I was lucky to maybe be reincarnated a get a cheat or system that helps me learn fast, and if I had one real wish I wish I could have gotten the perk soul protection from the fanfic Endless transmigration.

Then next thing I knew after that long series of notifications which were worrying because it seems to have kinda succeeded but then I heard another crack similar to the first one, and then I was seemingly back into the void fast approaching a crack, and where I say a crack I mean it in a literal sense. It lookes like a crack on a rock with a swerling texture. Then I went blank.
