Birth

POV-Ethan

"Damn, is this the place afterlife," I said as I was staring at the dark place with no light around. I had been trapped here for more than 24 hours with no hope for rescue.

"This sucks," I said frustrated, and tried to kick in the air. I still had a body but it felt incomplete. He didn't notice anything weird and just attributed it to the weird place. Maybe after death, your body or soul becomes like this. After kicking a laugh came from somewhere near me.

"Huh what the hell, is someone making fun of me even after death" I started furiously kicking the place. But the laughter became even more loud and with my current condition, I got tired after two kicks.

"Is this place afterlife or did I somehow survive and someone is doing weird shit to me" I muttered to myself

"Hey whoever you are, get out right now otherwise I will give you my fist of love" That's when I realized that my voice was not going out. It looked like I didn't have any vocal cords at all

"Wtf is happening to me" he started getting restless

"Honey, look our baby is so active right now. He is kicking wildly. Mary told her husband, "It looks like he wants to come out" Jack. (Sometimes baby kicking feels like being tickled from the inside for a mother)

"Little guy your time will come. Don't start jumping around in there. Your mom and dad will be waiting for you, oh and your brother too" Jack said while hugging her wife's belly

"Jeffrey look your brother is in there," Jack said to Ethan's new brother

"I know Dad, you don't have to tell me. I know this stuff" Jeff said

"How can a 3-year-old even know something about that? You little brat just because you are a little smart, you think you know everything" Jack said

"Do you know how babies are made"

"Of course, I know" Jeff immediately stopped as he sensed his mother's chilling smile.

"Jeff where did you learn that," Mary asked

"Oh I heard grandmother saying that babies are god given gifts," I said nervously as I just dodged a bullet.

"Oh, grandma is right baby, ha-ha," Mary said in doubt. You see Grandma Sal was a bit blunt with her words. She would always say everything that was on her mind. She wouldn't care even if she was saying something inappropriate to a child. Well, we will get back to Grandma Sal later.

POV-Jeff

Hey guys, so my name is Jeffery Williams. And as you all may have guessed; my name was Jeff in the past. Yeah, that Jeff who couldn't handle his vehicle and crashed, and the one who wanted to be a formula racer. Well, I'm back guys, new and improved and with a fresh new look, straight out of a new mother. I was handsome for a baby if I must say. I would give myself a solid 8 out of 10. 10 being Ryan Reynolds level. You can't beat his level of handsomeness.

Oh, I am getting sidetracked, so I just got to know that I'm getting a new sibling and it's a boy. It was big for me as I always wanted a little bro to whom I could boast. I always got jealous of Ethan even though we were like real brothers. Finally, my dream is coming true now. Ethan would be so jealous of me. You see he never got to boast in front of his brother as he was smarter than him. But my case is different even though I could be dumber than my new brother, I have way more experience from my past life. Suck that Ethan- always boasting about his brother. My brother would beat your brother's ass, no offense Nathan. I laughed creepily as I was having my internal monologue. I switched back to reality when I heard my dad calling me

"Jeffrey look your brother is in there," Jack said pointing at his mother's belly

"I know Dad, you don't have to tell me. I know this stuff" I said as a matter of fact, and felt like forgetting something

"How can a 2-year-old even know something about that? You little brat just because you are a little smart, you think you know everything" Jack said

"Do you know how babies are even made?" Jack said mischievously

"Of course, I know" Jeff immediately stopped as he sensed his mother's chilling smile. Fuck I forget sometimes that I'm still a child. I swear this mouth is going to be the end of me someday.

"Jeff where did you learn that," Mary asked while smiling like a demon

"Oh I heard grandmother saying that babies are god given gifts," I said nervously as I quickly made something up. Huff, just dodged a bullet there. There is no way a 3-year-old would know the baby-making process. I hit my head - "stupid head".

"Mom when are we going to have my brother," Jeff asked curiously.

"Aww, my baby wants to see his little brother, well it should be a little less than one month," said mom

"Did you already decide on his name, if not can I choose one, pretty please?" I said with glitter in my eyes. It looked like there were a bunch of stars in my eyes. This was a special technique I developed. I named it 'Make anything happen eyes'. It is like a power in which my already full power cuteness goes over the roof. But I use it only when it's necessary like when I don't want to eat vegetables or want to eat ice cream. Like Uncle Ben said 'with great power comes great responsibility'. Well, I am always getting sidetracked.

"Sorry baby, but your father got to choose your name so now it's my chance, you can maybe get the chance the 5th time," Mom said while looking away from my eyes. Fuck the only weakness of this great power.

"Wait there are four people before me. Who are they." I asked making an exaggerated pose

"Well, your grandparent from both mother and father's side has already reserved the naming rights, your grandma or my mother is the next one in the line. Sorry to disappoint you, baby. Maybe when you become a dad you will get the third chance, after your wife and me" Mom said to me with no shame on her face. My dad went behind me and patted my back in sympathy.

"So, what's going to be his name" I asked disappointed

"Well, I decided on Emily if she was a girl but now that we know that he is a boy, I have decided on Ethan," Mom said excited to see my reaction

"Ethan huh, that's a good name. Wait!" is he that Ethan I am thinking about? No that can't be. Is that possible? I'm here so it surely is possible. Does that mean everyone is reincarnating? Does that mean I will not be able to rule over my brother and not even flaunt my power as a big brother? Jeff started getting frustrated thinking about the future where his little brothers were making fun of him

No, even if he is the Ethan I know, I am still his big bro. I will beat him up if he talks back to me. I said forgetting he is a top UFC fighter.

"What happened Jeff, is something bothering you" Mom asked curiously

"Nah, I was just thinking if Ethan just came to your mind or somebody suggested it to you," I asked

"Oh, it just came to my mind while thinking of a boy's name. And it fits perfectly with the surname so that's a plus" Mom said casually

"Well, enough about that. Jeff, I wanted to say something" Mom said looking at me lovingly

"Tell me, Mom"

 "Now that we have a new member coming into our family, I want you always to remember that you are going to be a big brother now. He would be one of the biggest happiness and support in your life. I know it is still too early for you to understand all that but try to remember what I just told you"

"I will always remember that Mom," I said while hugging my mother

"And I'm sure Ethan is going to be a great little brother," I said oblivious to the horrors Ethan was going to bring upon me.

POV-Ethan

I patiently listened to the whole conversation even though I could not understand each word properly. First, they were surely speaking English. Second, I think my hearing has also become partial.

Third I think I heard someone saying Jeff. And he was calling someone mom. Which sounded weird as Jeff's mom died when he was in high school. Maybe some other Jeff. Fourth and last the mother said something about Ethan. That means they surely know about me. Is she helping me or is she an enemy? I thought I was in a coma but I was able to move my legs or whatever was left of them. Does that mean I'm blind? What the hell is going on? I am going to sleep. I can't deal with any more of this shit.

After a Month

During this month, I used to wake up occasionally while taking very long periods of sleep or that's what it feels like. Well, I got to better understanding of my situation from the occasional listening to what outside people are saying. I think I may be a baby, still in his mother's womb and I'm going to take birth real soon.

What did this mean? This means reincarnation is real. Man, this is big. I was the only one in my friend group who used to watch anime. I watched 'The Time I got reincarnated as a Slime' and 'Mushoku Tensei' so I knew about reincarnation and transmigration. Are there any powers in this new world as well

Just then I remembered the last wish I made before dying "If there is a second chance, I don't want revenge. I just want to live happily with my family and friends". Wait did some intergalactic entity pity me and decide to fulfill my wish? And I also have a big brother named Jeff, is he my old-world Jeff? Are others reincarnating too? This is too much for my baby brain. I will think about this after coming out.

During Birth

"Damn why isn't this baby coming out," Mary said screaming while holding her husband's hair

"Honey, you need to breathe in and out just like me," Max said trying to ease Mary

"Shut up, just take this baby out of me" Mary screamed. Jack thought for a second and took out his phone. He had heard husbands singing a song during their wife's labor He started playing one of his favorites thinking the atmosphere would ease up a bit.

Marvin Gaye - Let's Get It On

"I've been really tryin', baby

Tryin' to hold back this feeling for so long

And if you feel like I feel, baby

Then, c'mon, oh, c'mon, whoa" I was also getting in the groove

"Are you fucking shitting me right now" Mary started getting pissed and grabbed Max's hair so hard that I think he got a bald spot that day. But at least the song did something.

You see I was sleeping during the whole labour thing. But then I heard one of my favorite songs from my past life. My body unconsciously started to do little movements and before I knew it Mary pushed and I was out in the outside world.

"What is going on," I said a little sleepy, and started opening my eyes. Oh, am I in the outside world, are they celebrating my birth by playing one of my favorites. Wait a minute how did they know my favorite. Well, whatever, let's see. The guy holding me must be the doctor. Well, we all know what he is going to do. I tried to cover my tushy but the doctor was an expert at slapping ass. He hit me before I could even think properly.

"Ahh bastard, I swear when I grow up, I would slap my doctor's ass, now this sounds weird," Ethan said while making a frustrated expression on his baby face.

 What they all heard

"Gu Gu Ga Ga"

"Ahh, he is so cute," my new mom said to me. She sounded exhausted and excited to see me. Excited to see her newborn and exhausted after literally taking a human being out of her. I was not able to see clearly as my visual system was still developing, nevertheless, I was eager to meet my new family.

My parents died during an accident in my high school days leaving me and my brother. They had left a hefty amount as an inheritance for us, enough to spend the next 10 years without worries. I started boxing to keep me engaged whereas my little bro developed an interest in history.

Next to my new mother was a man smiling at me, one of his hands was on his hair while the other holding the phone. He must be my dad and he is playing this song during my mom's labour. Respect man, he sacrificed his hair for my epic entry into this new world.

Well, talking about worlds, this new world looks like a modern world. The hospital has the same look as my previous world's hospital. You see as a fighter I had my frequents in hospital. I didn't have any medical knowledge or equipment knowledge but this place looks similar to my previous world.

Can it be that I reincarnated into the same earth rather than some new world? Man, I would love it if it's some new world, with some fiction elements in it. It can also be Marvel or DC World. A man should never stop dreaming.
