I opened my eyes and found myself in the white space again and I looked at the figure standing in front again, I looked at him for a few minutes before walking towards him & started speaking
"Thank you for everything" I said looking at him with respectful eyes
"Haha,no worries child that is the least we are allowed to do for the poor souls searching for some closure" He said looking at me with a warm smile
"Still Thankyou" I said to him again
"Your Welcome and now that we are done with the pleasantaries let's continue where we left off earlier,shall we" He said abruptly changing the topic
"Yes sure"I said finally calming myself down
"Alright, so looking at your results, you have three options to choose from liberation,rebirth or reincarnation" He said looking towards me
"Could you explain about them properly" I asked looking at him in confusion
-Sigh-
"Okay,Well let's start with liberation first,
Liberation - that is getting liberation from everything desires, attachments, emotions,karma and cycle of rebirth"
"Second is Rebirth - That is to be reborn again as a child and live as another newborn again without the 'attachments and karma' of your past life"
"Third is Reincarnation - that is to reincarnate in a different world,in a different body with your 'memories' and 'gifted abilities' with the 'role to fulfill' as 'replacement' while living your own life" He said with a straight face
"Hmm, Well first please explain what the 'gifted abilities' is about and also about the 'role to fulfill' and 'replacement' part you mentioned just now" I asked
"Well, the 'Gifted Abilities' are those you get to choose from based on the available options and the 'Role to Fulfill' is the role the individual which the body belongs to has in that world that somehow accidentally got left unfulfilled to complete at the moment of his death, when such a situation occurs depending on the situation or individual we prove them with our assistance in completion of their role but if it fails and the individual dies but with his body intact we give them options to choose from and proceed based on their choices, 'Replacement' often depends on the individual reincarnating that is 'if' they want to continue to replace the individuals life with 'themselves' or live a completely different life altogether" He explained plainly looking at me
"Hmm, then if I choose to reincarnate do I get to choose who I want to reincarnate into" I asked excitedly looking at him
"Yes and No" He said understanding my intensions before continuing
"While you do get to choose but only from those already dead with an intact body or on the verge of death" He said finishing his sentence
"So what options do I get to choose from" I asked
"Well here you go, this is the list of people currently available to choose from" He said passing the screen to me
On the screen I saw many people with their 'Roles to Fulfill' mentioned below their images, the images I saw though were the people I could remember watching in movies and series in my life from 'Emilia Clarke' to 'Kit Harrington' and from 'Daniel Radcliffe' to 'Emma Watson' and lower below at the end of it I saw Christian Bale,Ben Affleck,Ezra Miller,Ray Fisher and Grant Gustin in a corner row and the other row I saw Mark Ruffalo, Scarlett Johansson,Jeremy Renner,Gwyneth Paltrow,Don Cheadle,Paul Rudd,Sebastian Stan,Anthony Mackie,Samuel L Jackson and a young Tom Holland at the last,
I was confused at first about why most of the actors from different TV shows and Movies images here but then I read the 'Information details' and 'Role to Fulfill' column and I was shocked at what I saw,they weren't the name of the actors I know but the characters which I watched they played,I carefully read everything again and decided at last, but before I could tell my decision I had some questions needed to be answered first
"Okay,I have decided but I have a few questions I need answers for" I said looking at the figure again
"Sure ask away I will answer everything I am allowed to"He said looking at me
"Okay so What are the abilities I get to choose from" I asked
"The abilities you get to choose from are based on your karma, remaining lifespan and also things like your character and behaviour in the past and many such things which proves your eligibility and criteria for the abilities you get to choose from" He said plainly
"So what are the abilities I get to choose from?" I asked
"Here,have a look" He said passing the screen at me again
I looked at the screen and so many options and at the top the number of abilities I get to choose and the type of abilities,etc
'So I get to choose 3 passive and 2 active abilities, or an object I can bargain in exchange for an ability' I thought looking at the different options on the screen
"Okay I have decided to choose reincarnation and to reincarnate into 'Peter Parker' and have also selected the abilities I want" I said before passing the screen at his direction
"Alright but you have only chosen 4 abilities,What about the 5th option?" He asked looking and verifying the options again
"I want to bargain an Object in exchange for it" I said looking at him while thinking of ways to divert his mind reading
"And What is the Object you want to exchange it for?" He asked staring at me
'My trick must be working he can't read my mind or intentions clearly when I am not directly thinking about it,yeah I will just think about songs in my mind till then'
(AN : Baby shark,doo-doo,doo-doo 🤣)
"I want the Primagen Crystal of the Celestial Race" I said blankly answering him while continuing to distract him
"I can't allow you that but you can take the perfected Super Soldier Serum Formula instead" He said with a pissed expression still unable to read my mind or intentions
"No, I don't need the Super Soldier Serum I want the Primagen Crystal itself" I said looking at him with a fake pissed off expression
"Okay If that's What you want then I can give you a Single Compound Primagen Crystal but it will only work on you and you won't be able to study or experiment on it unless you consume it in your body" He said staring at my direction
"Okay but How or Where do I get it from?" I asked with a defeated expression
"You will receive it when you have completely recovered" He said looking at me,
"Fine" I replied pretending to be dejected,
"But what about the memories of Peter Parker" I asked
"You will get them or remember them after your soul fuses together with your new body" He replied
"And How long will that take again?" I asked
"In your case since the person you are reincarnating into is 10 years old It will take a minimum of 7 days to complete" He said
"Do I get to use my new abilities during the process?" I asked
"Yes, but you will receive the 'object' you asked for only after the fusion is complete" He said
"Okay Fine" I answered
'Any Further Questions" He questioned
"Yes, What about the other things required while consuming the crystal" I asked
"While you don't need one, you can always find one or even better create one yourself" He replied
"Fine but what about the after-effects of the crystal, I don't want to transform into 'Chad' in a single day, since my physical body is still going to be a 10 year olds" I asked
"Hmm, I will add an adjustment so that the effects of the crystal take place at the slower pace till you are 14 years old and get completed together with your puberty" He said
"That's Great" I replied happily
"So Are you ready now?" He asked suddenly
I paused listening to the question thinking, while many things happened during this time which I never ever imagined happening but at least I am content with it at the end, I never thought I would get to be a character or should I say get to live as one with all the people I watched growing up,while the thought itself is fascinating but at the end of the day I should still prepare myself for it because because the end this will be my new reality and the people in that world aren't 'characters' but 'real' people alive and living their own lives with their own stories and secrets, I may know many things about the world but I shouldn't feel overconfident as even I don't know what the future ahead from the time I know holds or the possible outcomes or changes occurring in the future, I have already learnt my lesson once right before my death and I am not going to let it repeat itself once again, I should take it as a teaching and improve myself as much as possible while also trying not to interfere with the others as much as possible,I thought in a daze reminding myself & thinking about my future ahead,
'This is a different universe and I am soon going to be a person from this universe, I should cherish the people and their memories I have and prepare myself for the new people and family I am going to live with from now on' I thought finally ending my inner monologue
"Yes, I am ready" I answered organizing my thoughts
"Then go child and live the life you always wanted and search for all the answers to all your questions" He said giving a warm smile at me
AU* Earth-199999
As soon as he said that I felt myself fading away again but only for a short while before I felt my senses return again
I felt a little uncomfortable at first and was unable to move or open my eyes but that was only for a short period as I opened my eyes and saw many doctors and nurses surrounding me and a doctor with a defibrillator in his hands and everyone else looking at me with shocked expression on their faces I tried moving to understand what was happening but before I would say anything or move I suddenly felt exhausted and my body fell unconscious again.....
