Enjoy the read oh and don't be shy to comment about the story I'm still new to dis so any feedback will be greatly appreciated. "
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Let us begin the story, with a young man, how can be seen running through a park, at a practiced pace.
He looked ordinary with hes military cut hair and sharp featured face with a toned down chiseled body. . .
And then after a few more laps around the Hephaestus Park he stopped he's routined run.
And sat at a near Iron frame cemented bench, panting and stricken with sweat, while still listening to he's old Nightcore music.
he started lose hes fatigue, while he listened and looked up, at the beautiful blue sky, he always admire.
? ? ? : " haa ( sigh ) that was fun but I really do need to. . . "
then suddenly everything became was covered by black crimson shadows, Even though it was still 9 o clock in the morning.
? ? ? : " weird the news didn't say there was a Red eclipse to day hmmm. . . " he pondered at the thought, until a level of urgency appeared on his flush pale brown yellow face. . .
? ? ? : " I Better check if everyone's alright " but Before he could even take out he's phone.
A sudden dark hooded figure with blood red bleeding wings, appeared in hes mind, clearer than high definition TV.
A beautiful sight to behold, he was walking slowly injured with unseen wounds, with blood dripping on to the ground.
but then he started too speak, in a voice filled only with sorrow, and great regret.
? ? ?" humanity I have failed you. . . I apologize for I was too weak, father. . . he gave me a responsibility, to guide and protect our race, yet I. . . I Failed his last gift."
he was struggling to talk " and here I am to weak to protect he's beloved creation, I'm sorry but I lost.
a. . .being of the abyss attacked, and he won this is my end but I'll give the last of my strength to give some of you the chance to escap. . . "
before he could finish, he was cut short by a blade stabbing through his chest, then light intensely glowed in the dying angles eyes, then everything became dark.

( ??? )
" What's happening? how was that? Dammit I can't see anything. . . "
I felt like my body's paralyzed but before I could think of anything else a loud voice boomed inside my mind with an echoed laugh.
" ha ha ha wow you're pathetic, and you call you're self a god! well I shouldn't have expected much, from someone how protects such a pitiable world farewell. " after his vile and what words, everything became silent and dark. . .
I moved and struggled in a panic, because of that terrifying voice ( what the. . .wait. . .wait, lets. . . lets calm down, and think this over, I might be dreaming that weird sensation where I can't move is here, so yeah this might be a dream. . . )
After a few a hours of thinking ( okay not a dream. . . I'm never this conscious when dreaming, alright lets first be rational, maybe I was kidnap and brought in for an experimental deep dive gear or. . .
the university, I was being tested in was ambush, and all of us trainees where captured and now being experimented on, okay first I'm not that special to be taken. . .
( sigh ). . .How am I kidding I'm the prodigy of my generation, and an heir to an ancient household how wouldn't try kidnapping me. . . but then again I already did finished the test for the university, and I remember not being remotely close to it so. . . )
another unknown amount of time passed ( alright for now. . . lets believe this " Angel " is real and was protecting us in the place of am all powerful " God " because he probably died.
And then a " demon " killed him but before he could. . .he somehow picked a random set of people and let them escape but where?
So I'm now escaping I guess, hm. . . well I've read weirder scenarios, or even worse once so. . . wait.
Is being a believer a requirement. . . I shouldn't dwell on it to much. . .
some time passed while he self reflected and figured the situations he found himself in.
( hm. . . lets see. . . to start off lets just say I'm a "soul" something that has no body, but still has the memories of it's pass.
And that I can only feel that I'm aimlessly floating at sea. . . while being moved slowly by some sort of force. . .
I wish that he actually helped me, and that wasn't sent into someplace like hell, that keeps me from doing anything. . .
but think or it could be an empty purgatory but I don't really believe in those concepts, so maybe its something else. )
some more uncountable time passed. ( well this could be a problem. . . It seems like every hour or so my consciousness dwindle. . .
shit! I'm losing my consciousness again. . . No! its alright, besides if I kept my conscious mind any longer I might start going insane. . .
I'm already talking to myself as it is, so its alright. . . lets just make it go faster relax and think of nothing, but darkness then start slowly removing it. . . )
in a room full of students talking. . . playing, doing normal teen stuff a boy slept in the background while surrounded by his group.
Allen : " hey Daniel are you really gonna sleep there the whole period? or are we going to go out? Do you want to come along? " said by a pale athletic teen with freckles named Allen
then Another spoke
John : " we might get in trouble but its fine. . . the already teachers left for the teacher's meeting, so we can play something while we wait for the bell to rang so lets go. . . "
the one that said those words where a curly haired dark skinned teen named John he was Allen's tween brother. . .
Daniel : " alright but I. . . " he stop mid sentence
( wait where, what, who. . . time travel. . . no how's this person. . .Daniel? a memory is this a memory. . . )
Smack Allen punched the dazed kid on the arm.
Allen : " hey Daniel I said wake up! we can't let you day dream all day, again lets go have some fun. " he was about to hit him again but the Daniel caught it.
Daniel : " alright lets go. " he stood up he looked like a well fed kid, I mean fat that's been spoiled too much he has no pimples and has a regular barbers cut
Daniel : " hey so where do you guys want to go... " he looked behind seeing that they weren't there, so he looked back inside the room he saw something he felt like the body his inhabiting, had always regretted doing nothing about In the past.
A girl small petite girl was being made fun of by a tall kid. ( this. . .this is, the time when I did. . . alright I'll never get over it if, I let it happen again. ) the fat kid moved forward and jump and grabbed the eraser that the tall kid was holding high.
The onlookers was shock by the fat kids action but kept silent the tall kid laughed and left.
Daniel : " here you go Allysa isn't this eraser's you'res. . . so want to go hangout at the library, while we wait for the bell? "
She was all red, it's probably because she was riled up by the tall kid, she nodded and grabbed her art things, before both of them left the room but, before the fat kid left he spoke with he's friends first.
Daniel : " hey guys I'll catch up with you guys later, start without me " he yelled ( well that went better than before )
Allysa : " hump Danilly~ thanks for helping me but he might go after you later. . . " the small girl said the boy just placed his hand on top of her head and said
Daniel : " its alright. . . he was just joking, let's just hang out for awhile, I still do want to finish reading that book at the library so lets go. " the girl smiled and then both of them went to the library when they entered something happened. . .
( huh where, what. . . so it really was some kind of memory thing huh. ) the boy was standing in the middle of a field of white grass looking up at pink tinge clouds on a blue sky.
( so a meeting, I probably pass a test or something, where do I go. ) the boy looked around after first inspecting his body.
( back to being 12 I guess, hm. . . not the worst age even though. . I really do wish I'm not stuck like this forever. . . . I already miss my abs. ) he starred at a distant hill with a person on top sitting on a stump.
( my guess is, his the one how saved me, lets just go with it, but in the other hand it is beautiful here let's just. )
The boy laid down on the beautiful patch of white grass relaxing while singing a song about love * undertale stronger than you. *
? ? ? : " haaa to day is such a beautiful day, all that's missing is a bunch of birds singing, and maybe some Laughing children, but I could be the child, and probably some flowers, would you think so god? " a white robed old man stood near the kid and sat when the kid spoke .
God : " ha ha ha what a funny child, you didn't think ha ha ha, ( sigh ) well I did know someone like you can exist. I just didn't know someone like you can survive something like this I'm. . . I'm " he kneeled down and said
God : " Sorry " then bowed but before so, the kid reached out and touched his old silver haired head.
? ? ? : " it's alright dude, I don't blame you, or you're probable son, and he did saved me, from a fate he thinks worse, than this so it's alright. "
he said while laying back down on the white grass, while a content smile spread across his young face, the old man smiled as well and layed down beside him.
? ? ? : " I know you really didn't believed in me, when you where a child, you're mother just forced, a religion she herself just got into.
And that was it, she wanted you to learn to fear and love a being unknown, so she could teach you what's right from wrong. " the old man said while starring at the beautiful sky he made.
? ? ? : " I know. . . she only did love both of us, so are you like a recording, or something, you're son did say you where dead. " the kid said while still laying.
? ? ? : " ha ha ha alright, I know you're just full of questions kid, and yes you're guess is kinda right but before we continue let's walk to that stump over there. " the old man pointed at the stump while the kid only nodded his head and followed. . .
They where both walking up the hill. . a brown haired boy, how's dressed in a white uniform, and Black trousers. . .
And an old man how's hair was as white as the flowers that surrounds them, he wore a white and golden yellow robe.
God : " I know that you must be itching too know, what the hell is going on here, and ask questions like is this an isekai? or are you god? or did Jesus really die? am I a soul? or even dead, ha ha ha yeah does kinds of questions "
the old man said sounding like idle chatter, or just small talk while they casually walk.
? ? ? : " Are you always this chatty, yes I do want to know all those things, and I am indeed curious, but.
to be honest I don't really care that much, anymore. . . or do you want me to act confuse, and the other normal reactions a person would go through if there in my shoes.
you know why? Because I had an entire lets say a month, of thinking in a place where the only thing I can really do is think so I'm alright. "
the child said while they sat at the stump that actually has something to lean on it like a bench.
God : " ha ha ha " quite laughter
God : " yeah I know. . . I've seen it and I'm empress, you haven't turned too insanity, like many others do.
but it wasn't a month of isolation it was closer to years maybe even a half a decade. "
the child looked shock but not surprise ( I knew I was stuck there for a long time, but a decade?! hm. . . guess I shouldn't be surprise it doesn't really matter anyways. )
the child nod prompting the old man to continue talking.
God : " you've been stuck in limbo, for the better part of decade, and I know not many of you can stay sane so. " he stopped and looked at the child
? ? ? : " it's alright I'm still sane, don't worry about me, even though you're you, you should just be worried for the others. "
God : " alright if you really are okay, even just being stable is fine. . . let me continue so listen closely, like what you've have thought I'm a god, but right now the being you're seeing isn't my true spirit, it must have died eons ago. . .
So the me right now, the one that's been talking to you, is just an imprint I left in the soul of every human I've connected to the Entity you're religion named the holy spirit.
those people are the ones I've asked my son, to save as many as he could, if anything happens to the world I've made.
So that must be why you're here. . . you're one of my sons, that's more connected to me than any other " the old man said to the child that's until now, has been listening intently to his words.
? ? ? : " okay this is hm. . . " ( . . . . well that explains a lot, I was always have this sensitive spirituality when I was at my middle teen years okay well lets just ask. )
God : " so god? is this like where I get a gift that'll help me in my adventure. "
God : " ha ha ha sorry kid, but I can't give you anything as grand as magic, or the things you think I can give.
If I could I would have done it, when I made humanity, but I'm not as powerful as I where when I was younger. . . but I do need to give you something you know that memory you entered before you came to this place? " the child nodded in response
God : " that was a test and I know you already realized it but that should have been more than one memory. . . you know why its just one? " he asked the child
? ? ? : " I don't it wasn't mine to begin with but when I was him Daniel. . . I recalled that it was his greatest regret. . . the One thing binding his spirit. . . " Clap clap clap the old man clapped his pale hands. . .
God : " you're exactly right kid. . . so young yet wiser than most experience souls.
That was a memory of one of you're reincarnation ancestor. . . the one named Daniel Adara he's an old yet powerfully connected human to my spirit. . .
Okay you must know about the karma the thing, the Hindus believed to exist, it does I made it as a reward system.
For those how have done good in there life, and also as a punishment for those how have been cruel in there last lifetime.
the old man kept explaining concepts after concepts that he made to maintain humanity and verified the things the kid understood
God : " alright that's probably everything have you gotten bored of listening kid? " the old man said while they both drunk coffee out off a tea set
? ? ? : " no I'm alright. . . " he shook his head
? ? ? : " but I'm curious grandpa what are you? " the kid asked
God :" oh I didn't mentioned it didn't I. " he was stroking his beard
God : " well it's a long story but. . . it should fine if I told you. . let me see now... this is how they told it to me along long time ago there where nothing but a blank slate.
filled with nothing but one entity the celestials called him arcana, he was as they said it one of them, the first of them, the being how created everything he is there father.
then that being was bored of being eternally existing alone, so like many others like him he broke him self and used his body to form what the celestials called the abyss many think the abyss is empty.
and chaotic but does fools have no idea what true chaos or emptiness is, so after his vessel was turned to the abyss, his consciousness lingered for a time, but also broke with time those consciousness was eventually.
resurrected and fractured creating celestials this beings are both the protector and creator of the abyss's rules and dimensions but they also like all things faded no one knows where they are or if there even still alive and then and they where the beings how created me.
a god, they left God's in charge of worlds to protect, them at least for some, that's what they did for others, God's just exists in the universes or worlds the celestial both accidentally or purposely made.
so they left them there without enlightening them, because there already doing there work without them telling it, I'm just lucky that one of them enlightened me, when I was young but in the end before every celestial went missing they did something, I've never never thought they would do they cut every Infinityverse bridge. "
God : " so that's everything I know I'm really surprise you're soul is still haven't been eaten by something yet. . . " the old man started to flicker out of existence fading slowly like a ghost
? ? ? : " so grandpa what's going on!? " the child said in a panic
God : " its okay. . . it's just the imprint I made, its beginning to fade okay I don't have enough time. here! " he summoned three glowing orbs the first ones pink the second ones blue and third ones white
God : " there swallow the pink one quickly, it'll give you this pocket dimension, and mark it in you're soul. "
the kid quickly did what he was told. . . everything around them turned dim while it flickered.
but then there surrounding stopped flickering like the old man said after the child swallowed the pink orb whole. . .
God : " the white one contains the only gift I can give you, and the blue one, is an awakening pill that would reveal memories and experiences, of every human that I connected to the spirit.
you can ask it anything you want and also some of my knowledge dwell in it, good b. . . "
before he could even finish his words the old man vanished, becoming nothing, the kid reacted by clapped his hands together, thanking the old man's for everything he helped him with.
? ? ? : " thank you for the gifts. . .you gave I promise to not stray away from the path of good. . . at least at the start, good bye. . .grampa god.
Damn, I'll probably be stuck here for a while, I guess lets use this gifts he gave me, lets start with you. " he swallowed the white orb
" I don't feel any different I wonder what it is lets see, how about the blue one. " the boy starred at the blue orb. . .
