《Kain's Adventures》 Prologue The Offer Prologue: The Offer What if you could become the character of your favorite game, book or movie? More so, what if you could take bits and pieces of those favorite things? How much, what elements and who would you become. Why would God, fate or the powers that be let you choose? This is what is going through Kain mind as he is given these choices after dying from cancer at the tender age of thirteen. It''s all started out just as he faded away as died. " Do you want to change your fate?" Asked a voice the world turns gey. " Do you want a second chance to live?" " Yes!" he cry''s out, " I don''t want to leave Mom all alone. What do I have to do?" " Your mistaken what I asked. You are on the cusp of death and rebirth. Most goes to the void after death but because of certain things you are being given a chance to choose a different life, of course there are rules WE Gods must follow, but for the most part WE are giving you an chance to pick out your fate; to change it. Do you except OUR offer? "Yes, but how will I chose there is an infinite possibilities and I have no way knowing which I am choosen and if it will serve me in my new life." " WE will incorpurate the choices into a game menue very much like the ones you enjoyed playing in your last life. Would that be to your liking?" "Yes thank you that will make it more easier."Kain said with graditude in his voice. The author''s content has been appropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon. Menu starting.......

Tutorial starting in 9....8....7 User conscious will temporarily shut down to prevent overload in 3....2... Kain felt darkness incase him feeling less of the pain as he fell unconscious. "Do you think he really will rise up to the challenge that''s coming?" One of the gods asked. "Only time will tell. Fate is fickle minded at times but if it is meant to be than that is what destiny is written for him. But being the son of a celestial being and living on the outliner worlds like Earth. It''s surprising how he lived this long without the essence of the universe." "Are WE choosing his world or were you serious about letting him choose?" Another God ask. "WE all came together because in one way or another WE owed his father. This is the best WE could do for him." yet another one of the Gods stated. In all, there were six Gods & Goddess who have watched over the soul of the one and only offspring of the one being that they admire above all else. Chapter One Tutorial Chapter One Tutorial As he fell unconscious his life flashed before his eyes. Not just what he remembers, but his whole life from the time of conception to days after his death. It was like watching a movie, but with all the senses. He watches as his dad and mom meet for the first time, and the last time. The genuine first love at first sight, how his mom become so enamored that she gave her first time by the end of the night. The whirlwind romance lasting only three weeks. He watches how his mom reacts to finding out that she is pregnant with him, while dealing with the disappearance of his dad. Then he sees how her family disown her because of her strong will in deciding to keep and raised him despite being only15. How she graduated early and got two jobs and took collage courses at night after he was born. Then she meets his step father in her senior year. That''s when everything changes. At first his mother was happy and they get married, but after giving birth to Kain''s twin siblings his step father became abusive towards him and his mom. It wasn''t until Kain took a server beating trying to protect his mom that she decided to divorce him. Though she tried to get custody of the twins his step father won the custody battle only because he made more money. His mom decided that they needed a fresh start when he was 9, so they moved from Ohio to California to a small college town where she aimed for a teaching degree. For the next 4 years were the happiest he ever seen his mom and so was he but soon he started to become sick. After three months of going back and forth with the doctors he was finally diagnosed with cancer, stage 4. His mom tried everything and he got to live 2 more years, but slowly, his body started to shut down via having seizure. The last one was the killer he didn''t even see but he saw from a third person view. He watches his mom crying over his body and then his real dad comes over to her and says something unbelievable. "I''m a God of another universe and I am going to make sure he''s reborn there...." he pauses for a while then says, " You two can be reborn together but it won''t be as son and mother, it will be as siblings and you won''t remember this life but our son will." Then the movie of his life end as he began to retun to conscious. Love what you''re reading? Discover and support the author on the platform they originally published on. He finds himself in space looking at the cosmos. It was beautiful beyond belief and he was trying to understand what was going on as well as where he was. Then a voice inside his head said. ''This is the the beginning and the end, ever contracting and expanding. Here, it is the best place to start the tutorial for one of the seven Gods Blessings, which is the whole "Gamer System" I''m going to be your guide for the reminder of the new world. So first off the guide of how everything works if you say "Menu" this will pull up all the tabs to choose from, but in the same way you can call up status tab, skills or any of the other tabs of the menu. There is also settings, bestiary, map or "The Shop" which is where you can buy upgrades, skills or more. As your second Blessing, you are being given the chance to choose your starting point and your characters look. Now, you know a bit of what happens when you die, but due to certain things you are going to be sent to this place each time. This is your third Blessing. Would you like to hear the rest of your Blessings or continue with the rest of your tutorial? Y/N'' "Yes please continue with the tutorial" Kain decided, "Will I be able to ask some questions after this but before making selection?" ''Yes there will be a Q&A after the tutorial. To continue, once you are done with the tutorial and the Q&A. You will be taken to the "Worlds" menu to choose your rebirth Home. Afterwards, you will learn a bit about its history and culture as well as the current state of affairs, then you can choose your race, regional starting point and then you will be taken to "Character Creation". Once you are done with that, depending on your choices, you will receive your fourth Blessing. Then you can set up your stats, skills, traits and legacies. After that, you will receive your fifth Blessing and be sent into your new life. The last two Blessing will be granted by the worlds Gods and Goddesses. Before the Q&A let me iterate something to you. There are worlds with a similar game setting and if you choose that kind of world you will have two different "Gamers System" to use.'' Chapter Two Q&A Chapter Two Q&A ''Now it''s time for the Q&A. Feel free to ask any questions, but know that there are things that I''m not going to be able to answer due to rules of Fate. Is that acceptable?'' The voice in his mind asked. "Yes, but can you tell me what makes me different from others to have been given the chance to choose my new life? Will mom be okay without me? And how is my dad from other world, as well as a God?" the questions kept pouring out as he thought about everything that has happened up to this point. ''To answer your first question I''ll have to answer the last, but even then I can only give you a general description of what has transpired to you be given this option. The reason is that the Goddesses of Fates and Destinies have granted your father this favor with rules attached. Your world that you grew up in is what is referred to as an outliner world. What this means is that it has no essence of creation. This essence is used by others through the way of processing it, which your world its called many things; Mana, Magic, Ki or Qi. Your father grew up on such a world and attain Godhood, but due to the rules I can only tell you that through many adventures and misadventures he gained favors but also enemies and it was an enemy that set his Fate to your mom and therefore you. You must understand that after attaining godhood, it''s no longer easy to have children with mortals unless you use your cultivation base to do so. So, you a child of a god and mortal, are unique in all of creation. I say unique but you aren''t the only one, just one born outside the rules of fate and destiny. Your mom was saddened by your death but, even though she doesn''t remembers your dad''s comforting words and promise, goes on to live a good life and even finds love again and have two more kids and even gets custody of her older twins through the misfortune of your stepfathers death, but when she dies of old age instead of being taken to your birth world Cycle of Rebirth, she and your siblings and their kids will be brought to your new world. This is because your dad truly loves your mom. Anymore questions?'' Help support creative writers by finding and reading their stories on the original site. "One more, you said you were my guide in the new world, does that mean I will loose you when I die again?" For some unknown reason he already felt attached to his guide. ''I''m apart of you and as you are born, live and die, I as well as you will change. Also this place will be the only time we will remember all our lives from before. This will be the only time you will be reborn with your memories but the next life will be from scratch. Which brings something I forgot to mention. Each life you will earn Karma Points which is where your Second Blessings comes into play. It''s infinite this first rebirth but afterwards you will have to earn your KP. The way you do that is by the actions or in actions of your new life. This first life you will be aware of these awards by attaining Achievements, but the next life it will be a hidden value. Think of this life as a game in alpha testing. Anymore questions?'' "I can''t think of anything right now other than what is next." Kain said as he tried to wrap his mind around the facts he just learned. Suddenly, a question popped into his mind. "Oh, what is your name? I never thought to ask before now, how rude of me." ''.....I have no name for I am just here to guide you.'' The inner voice seemed surprised that it''s master would even think of such a thing. It''s soul purpose is to watch over and guide his master. It was what Kain''s father made it for. "Then I will name you...hmm...Sebastian? Yes I feel like that is a good name for you. Hi Sebastian, I hope we can get along from this day forwards." Kain had as a child had this imaginary friend named Sebastian and it just felt right somehow
