I had died. It was a Simple thing really. There were no big elaborate explanations. I had passed away from a cold on my bed. Not as a heroic hero, saving a girl from her inevitable death. So, Why was this screen here blocking my view of my well deserved afterlife? Well let me just read the prompt on it and you'll understand my situation. "You have died. Click to respawn." "Seriously, whoever you are; are you trying to mess with me by telling me that my life was nothing but a game." Out of the corner of my eyes around the edges of the screen I was able to piece together the room I was in. I somehow could also feel that if I refused to click the only button on the screen then I would be stuck in this same position for eternity. I guess the dead have no equal rights. With only one real option I clicked the screen.
"Congratulation Host For Gaining the Minecraft System. This system has 8 Main functions. Shop- Where you can buy things from Minecraft such as, Armour, weapons, and regular items or special items. Some items need to be unlocked through quests generated by me. Creature Shop- This is where you can buy all the non sentient mobs of Minecraft to act under you. Companion Shop- This is where you can buy all sentient people and species from Minecraft to work under you. All people have a physical copy of themselves to be repetitively purchased within.
So theoretically you could get 100 Herobrines in a world. I wouldn't recommend that though. All Companions are created loyal to the Host, but if you purposely mistreat them they can turn against you. It is impossible for them to become unloyal through any other means. Status- This will allow you to see your own status, or chose to see any one of your followers status'. This way you can tell who's under what effects and what every mob or person's health, stamina and hunger and other things are. Inventory- This will allow you to have a portable storage inventory Identical to Minecraft's Steve no matter the world your in.
Perks- This will bring up a list of all your perks. They can be gained through doing certain tasks, completing specific quests, as well as buying them from the shop. These are unique boons that help in your Minecraft career no matter what you choose to do. Skills- This will bring up a list of all your skills. These come in to effect with certain mods. They can be gained through doing specific actions, completing specific quests, as well as buying them from the shop. Map- This function when called upon gives you a map of the world your currently in, as long as you have a map crafted ready for use in any other world you own. There's special versions of the map you can get, where you can mark certain locations as well as find specific enemy's on your map ahead of time. Your Summons will be marked Green with a name above them in these versions. Allies will be marked Blue with a name above it. You may also mark a target orange or Purple if you wish to distinguish them quicker and more efficiently."
Taking in the info I sighed in boredom just knowing my ineffable fate of reincarnation. On the plus side, I had a slightly more unique system which I hoped would end up helping me in my new world. Maybe this new life could actually be interesting. Still compared to heaven where you live eternally happy, It just wasn't enticing enough. Plus knowing just like my old world, there would be loads of enemies which I would have to deal with in this new place. I hated my situation. Still, maybe there was a way to make my new life more interesting than my last one. Maybe I could start a living space and make a pet out of every mob in every dlc, mod, and version of Minecraft. Deciding to get to it with a hopeful smile I called out "Status."

"Skills," I hollered out next. Ignoring that last remark.

Sighing in disappointment I hollered out "Perks."

With the potential for more things with mods and other features. All effects of any kind on your body are visible from attempted body control, and mining haste...
Finished looking I wondered if there was a Gift pack. As a way to help me start on my Journey.
"Beginner Pack Received- 32 Blocks of Minecraft Verse Dirt. This type of dirt is one of the most fertile within your corner of the Omniverse. This is here in case you end up in an apocalyptic world only to face a situation you would have originally died of hunger in. You may take this out of your Minecraft world instead of using these 32 blocks there. You also receive a wooden sword which you can take out of the Minecraft universe."
Looking at the Prize, I first thought it was a joke; after all the beginner pack ultimately only came with the appropriate gear for training and maybe farming. Not something that could actually keep me alive. However as nothing happened I had to face my situation in disbelief. My first decision was to at least try and figure out how best to use my gifts for different worlds I could end up in. A stategorial meeting with myself of sorts.
Finally done with my basic ideas for now I looked around the room I was in, and got up opening the fake door of the room I still found myself in, and sure enough to my expectations; once I left that room I was now out in a new world.
My first sight in the new beautiful world was simply astounding. Ninjas leaping hundreds of feet in distance and air; even people running faster than cars. I thought I saw some cabbages getting destroyed but that would put me in the wrong world so I ended up ignoring that little detail. Looking at the horizons I noticedGiants practicing in a distant training ground that seemed to be hundreds of times larger than other forests. It was thanks to that super forest and the other clues I figured out where I was, and if that wasn't enough two men in green spandex yelling Youth and a giant gate with a leaf village symbol ought to have at least wrung a bell with me. I was in the world of one Naruto Uzumaki and I was probably gonna find myself in the plot of this world one way or another whether I wanted it or not.
Seeing a young man walk up to me I felt a few memories float through my mind. In this world I was an Aburame, and on top of that I was pretty close with the main family as I was first cousins with them. Our Fathers were brothers in this universe. Unfortunately last year my father and mother were killed in an accident and they had been taking care of me for about a week. Last night the previous host of this body killed himself from the stress of it all. Something I regret seeing as this boy would have had a wonderful life ahead of him to some extent at least if he could have overcome it.
Seeing the guy's insects buzz out of his body as the guy looked at me interested about something I waited for him to start the conversation since he came over first. "How you doing Lewis." The American name coming out of his mouth very fluently. Or maybe I just automatically knew the language like any other protagonist. It could have also been a situation like in video games where they just text insert your name no matter what it is for you to hear and it doesn't change any npc's actions. Either way I was glad for my own sake as I could still respond to what I was primarily used to and wouldn't give away any hesitation to answering to people I should know. I also didn't plan on learning a new language and explaining where my memories about it went. Wait a second, what if I got it from my new body's memories instead and my body was on some sort of auto response course programmed in on what I said to make it japanese for others. It was going to take a few weeks to get over these thoughts I brought up that made me question my existence.
"I'm doing fine Yami. I swear." Obviously the guy didn't believe me knowing what my situation was. "Well I'm always here for a friend. We have that whole will of Fire thing after all, right?" "Thanks I mumble loud enough for him to just hear it." "Still what do you think about that stupid Uzumaki actually passing the test. I mean, I have nothing against the kid personally. He didn't mess with my family or anything. But knowing even his dumb behind can make it in the ninja program I feel like my occupation isn't going to be kept as serious of an occupation amongst our village. Like didn't he score a 12 on a test a couple of weeks ago on the edibles versus poisons test." (I could actually see this being a test and the hokage not caring as it was shown that the kyuubi or biju chakra in normal could destroy poison in the body. So this test wouldn't actually be important in Naruto's set of skills and could be voided.)
"Don't worry, I understand you. Can't believe he's honestly still alive with the villagers going after him everyday. Who know's maybe that's why. He has good enough instincts to keep him alive this long. Well anyway Mr. Aburame requested for your presence and he sent me to tell you. So head on that way unless you want his wife hitting you with her signature frying pan later." "Will do," I said as I shudder in fear.
Making my way back I hear a conversation between a couple people. "Dear Mr. Koboyashi. Can't you let me go to my family first?"
"Sorry man, you know the rules. Even if your wife's at the hospital right now giving birth your gonna have to report to your clan first about your visit back and how your mission went. If you go now you'll end up facing some strict punishment as it slows down the flow of the mission completion notices for others in case there ends up being linking missions, especially since so no one else was assigned that mission that could replace your position to report for you."
Cringing slightly at the situation of the man I returned to walking towards My destination. My new Guardian together with his sons Torune and Shino; Shibi Aburame. I also decided to protect Torune from Tobi in this life. How I would do so. I'm not so sure yet.
