{A/N : The thoughts will now be written in the italics , I wonder if people read this well no worries I will give my best. I will think harder, it is not like they can hear my thoughts Hahahahah...}
Om, ignorant that he was blessed by one of the supreme gods, and that there were chances that some problems could arise, walked out of the door. He still felt very light headed as a weird power surged through him.
Even after being light headed, his curiosity was pumping him up, he felt really giddy on gaining on a class. He wanted to learn different battle styles and wanted to try new skills. Om was totally not ready for the cruealty of this world.
Om walked slowly and reached his parents.
"Did you gain a class Om." His parents tried to sound calm but their nervousness could be clearly heard. Om took a deep breath and flexed his muscles (Very small ones) and said
"Yes! I am now a Warrior. I got my first achievements and all the starting skills. I just cannot wait to test them out." Om happily hugged his parents.
What Om did not see was a tinge of worry on their faces as they got to know that he became a Warrior but then they cheered up quickly and celebrated with him.
"Congratulations, we knew you would get a class, now it is the time to celebrate." He and his parents went to his favourite restraunt and gaming centre, the ate a lot of goodies and while he was eating a notification flashed past his eyes.
[Quest] [Join the Warrior Training Centre] [Reward: 20xp]
{XP = experience}
"Dad?"
"Yes Om?"
"I just got a quest stating that I need to join a Warrior Training centre, could you please look after my admission?"
"Sure, we had already planned on doing so as it is the first quest. We will look after it ok."
"Thanks, you are the best."
They continueed to eat delicious food and have a great time. After a few hours, Om could be seen sitting in his room. He had changed his dress and was just sitting on his bed in a meditative position. He had closed the door and windows beforehand.
"Bua you ready to tell me about everything?"
On hearing no response after some time, he stood up and said "If you do not reply to, I will go and tell mom and dad about everything."
"Wait waiwait wait wait, stop! I am here. You are such a good boy, no need to bring your parents into this" A voice replied in his head. It was Shanti's voice.
"What are you doing in my head and how did you even get here."
"I don't know but during the last session, I was sucked into your soul space"
"What do you mean by that?"
"Yes, I AM IN YOUR SOUL SPACE"
Om was dazed by the sudden turn of events, he then quickly rushed on his bed and sat in a meditative position. He then used the skill Soul Record and was transported to his Soul space.
He opened his eyes and saw his Soul space, it was like a cloud free night, but it was totally dark devoid of stars. He looked closely and saw a human figure, on a closed inspection it turned out it was him. He was sitting in a meditative position, with two stars revolving around him and one stars lying on his lap.
All the stars were of different colours, the revolving one was of silver colour, and other one black. The lone star on his lap was of red colour. On closer inspection he found out that they were the skills he possessed. The revolving ones were the activated or the passive skills and the one not moving was a active skill. He was mesmerised by the scenery when he felt a touch on his back.
{I have also decided that Shanti's who was previously Om's bua is now no longer bua but the daughter of Arjun's close friend. I had planned the story differently but now as she is in the Sea Of Soul, therefore it would be pretty weird. I hope you do. not mind the changes.}
He turned around to find Shanti with a sheepish smile on her face. She still looked the same, she wore a white shirt with some blue jeans, she had long brown hair, a thin and small nose, beautiful eyes and a mesmerising smile. She was around 22 years old around the time of death and had not aged a single day.
"How did you even manage to get here?" Asked Om
" Well it was not entirely my fault"
"What do you mean by that"
She gave a weird smile and said "During the last session, I got a choice to transfer in your Sea Of Soul or remain in the artifact."
"Do not tell me you choose the option."
"Do not blame me as it was entirely my fault. I was bored there and it had been such a long time since someone came to meet me. I felt so lonely. It told me that I could jump in your Sea of Soul and live. Look on the bright side now you will have someone helping you all the time."
"I know but it still creeps me out and I cannot help it.'
"Do not worry I will not read your thoughts."
"You Can Read My THOUGHTS!!!!!!"
"I am sorry, do not be mad. Please please please."
Om sat down and tried to arrange his thoughts, after he calmed down he realised there was nothing he could do to get her out. And what she said was kind of true that she would be of help, he looked up and saw her staring him with begging eyes.
"Well there is not really anything that I can do, I guess you can stay here."
"Yayyy!!!! Thanks a lot" she said while hugging him "I will try to help you to the best of my extent."
"So tell me how can I see my status and all."
"Well you just have to touch your giant image there and voilà."
Om proceeded just as she had said, he walked up to his body and touched it, a light burst forward and he could see all his stats, and every necessary detail.

"Shanti are my stats good?"
Shanti came up to see the stats and was dumbfounded.
"What happened?"
"Y.. You have pretty high stats for a level one. Usually all level one start from 7 points only. But your stats look like as of someone of level 3.
"What can I say other than I am too powerful. Well anyway I am leaving now" Saying this Om deactivated the skill and went downstairs to find out that his parents had enrolled him and he has to go after one week.
The week passed swiftly as he just spent his time learning some basic fighting, and martial arts, speaking with Shanti which he found as a good time pass and going shopping with his mother. Present day he could be seen standing in front of the Training Centre. His parents gave him some money and bidded him goodbye. His mother was crying a little as it would be after a long time that she would be able to meet him.
Arjun quickly took her back to the car and told Om to make care of himself, he did not wish for Om to get sad on his first day. He then bidded him goodbye and as the car went down the lane, Om was overwhelmed by strong feelings.
"So this is a new beginning"
"Yes Om it surely is."
