'Darkness. Who knew that when you make it to the end of the line, all that awaits you, is nothing. For me that is. No bright white clouds with beautiful golden gates and steps, or not even dark gates and steps surrounded by hell fire. Just, nothing. How depressing.'
"Yes, life is depressing child, but it gets better, or at least with my help, I can make it better." I turned my body, or, soul around, since I didn't really have a body, to see who is was. It was a man who was dressed in mainly Indian culture attire. "Who are you?" I asked respectfully, not wanting to upset the being and possibly getting my soul erased from existence.
"I, am Savitar( the Hindu god's name is actually "Savitr", but in the Flash TV series, they spelled it "Savitar", so, I don't know what the hell is going on, but I'm going with the Flash version for now.) the Hindu God of Motion."
My eyes widened for a second or two, remembering the name from the Flash Tv show. The main thing that was on my mind, is what was he doing here, or more like, what am I doing here?
"You are here, because I need an avatar." He spoke with a kind smile, a smile that represents the complete opposite of his counterpart in the show.
"An avatar?" I asked with confusion plastered on my face. "Let me explain. Every God has an avatar, or in some cases, a prophet. The God from your world, who's name was just, God, had Jesus. And other prophets from your world were Muhammad, Moses, and many others. I however, no longer have one due to a misunderstanding, and I need a new one. And I needed one who represented exactly what I am. I am speed. And you, were 1 month away from becoming the fastest man in your world, so in a way, you would've been speed."
I broke apart his explanation and absorbed information piece by piece before getting the big picture.
"So, since I represented speed in my world by becoming the best at it, which is what you did, you want me to become your avatar/prophet because..?" I trailed off my explanation so he could hopefully finish it for me.
"As my avatar I will give you what you desired before your timely demise. The potential to become the fastest man to ever live. If you become my avatar, I will need you to go to other worlds in the multiverse, so you can spread my presence and make my religion well known wherever you go."
'I have no reason to really decline his offer. He's giving a chance for power, another chance at life, and I can go to whatever world I want.' He nodded his head at my words and he extended his hand.
Without another thought, I took his hand and shook it. "So, where would you like to go first?" Savitar asked me. "Hm, I want to go to a Marvel Universe that has the MCU, Fantastic Four, Mutants, and other things that you think I'd want there." I said confidently.
"What time period?" "Hm, fuck it, send me to the dinosaur times."
"Wow, that's really far back, any questions before I send you off?" He asked.
"Yes, where will my speed come from?" "Hm, your speed will come from my domain which contains an infinite amount of speed energy. But I will warn you, if you draw more speed than your body will allow, then you will explode, and I'm afraid that the almost instant healing factor you will get won't save you. Just to make sure you won't die, I'm going to give you a system that will keep up with the progress you make along the way, and will warn you if you draw too much speed, or if you are in any imminent danger in general."
I nodded my head, satisfied with the answer and what he said at the end. "Okay I'm ready." "Okay, good luck kid. Spread my name." I nodded as he push me through a portal that appeared out of nowhere. "Shit!"

When I opened my eyes, I was inside of a cave dark cave. Although the cave was dark, I could clearly see skeletons of small dinosaurs littered in the back of the cave. 'Damn, that's brutal.' According to my Marvel wiki knowledge, the Elder God Set formed a magical affinity with the dinosaurs, so if I got DNA and blood samples from one of these dinosaurs, he would be able to get some magic.
I could've asked to be sent to modern times and learn from the ancient one, but since I am tens of millions of years away from the first humans and their civilization, I have plenty of time to gain speed and spread the Savitar legend.
I walked out the cave and saw many large trees and large birds, but not a dinosaur yet. 'What does the system look like?' "System?"
No response.
"Uhm, status?" The typical blue screen I was waiting for popped up in front of me and displayed all the information that it had.

'Damn, there's no inventory or anything? That's alright, I don't need it when I have super speed. It looks like it's turning night, I should set up camp somewhere.' I started walking through the tall and thick trees, picking up sticks and stones to make a campfire, as well as looking for a cave that didn't smell like shit. Eventually I found said cave and took all the materials I collected into the cave with me.
Soon enough, I put a bunch of rocks around the sticks that I put together in the correct spots, then I banged two rocks together to get a spark to light the sticks on fire. Once it was lit, I sat by it and began to collect my thoughts. 'Alright, what do I do now.. in order to increase my speed, I need to increase my body strength. So I can either be a dickhead and go around punching dinosaurs and killing them any chance I get, or literally almost anything else.. how about both?' I thought while a maniacal smile crept onto my face.
*HISS~*
I stood up and turned around, becoming very vigilant at the sound I heard. 'That definitely sounded like a hiss. This thing could be fucking gigantic, I played Ark before.' I picked up a big stick that was laying around and I put the tip of it into the fire, lighting it up and making it a torch. I walked slight closer to the sound, before I threw the stick down to the end of the cave.
*SCREEECH*
At the end of the cave, there was a snake that was about 15 feet long and 4 feet wide, and it looks like I hit it with the torch. 'It looked injured before the torch even hit it.' I waited patiently for the snake to stop screeching and squirming, eventually it did, and I slowly walked up to it, another stick in my hand, this time a long one.
When I got close enough I poked it with the stick a couple times to confirm it's death. Once I knew it was dead I took a deep breath. "Big bastard." I muttered. I walked up to it and began to examine it.
'Its fangs are so small… is this a baby snake?? If this is the size of a baby snake, then how big is a fucking adult one?!' Just the thought of a snake that big scared me a little bit. 'I need to master my speed before I meet one of those bastards.' I thought seriously.
I began to deglove the snake, so I could use it'a skin to make a large sack, like I was Santa or something, and I put as many scales as I could inside of it, enough to leave room for other things that I might put in it in the near future.
When I'm done violating the snake by leaving it there to bleed out. 'Hm, would I get any powers for drinking it's blood?' Without leaving any room for another question, I crouched down and scooped up some of the blood and downed it in one go.
Holding back the urge to throw up everything I ate trailing back to this morning. Then, I waited for any form of ability to manifest. After waiting for around 5 minutes, I frowned because I didn't get anything. "Status."

'Oh shit, I got poisoned.' I felt a slight migraine creeping up on me. "Damn, I'm feeling a little woozy here." I remembered how the flash got rid of the poison. I started vibrating my molecules to match the molecules in the air and the poison started visibly leaving my body.
"Hm, I'm hungry." I slowly turned my head and looked at the snake, and then at my campfire. "Sigh, I hope I don't get poisoned again." I said, before setting up my first meal in a new world.
