《Blood Flower》 1: Truck strikes again Monday the most melancholy of all the days just started. Most people at this time of the week would sigh, while the previous day would be heaven to them. And I Henry Holden am not an exception to this notion. However, in my case, it was not just a simple bother the main reason was because I truly hated my school and I hate to say it but I am depressed. The main reason for my depression and my hatred are creatures called humans, I truly hate everything that defines us humans naturally, I hate myself as well thus the depression. But don''t get me wrong I am not some psychotic bastard that would go on a killing spree just because I hate something, I am not like that. The main reason for my hatred would be because of what the humans do to this world, and when I say this world I mean mainly nature. I am a person who other people would call a crazed guy about nature, yeah that''s what they call me in school as well, but that doesn''t bother me, they call me that but I am not getting bullied by anyone, not that I would care even if I was. I am close to my school I just need to cross the road to the other side and again another boring week will begin and end like all the rest. I heard the school bell as it chimed "Crap!" I might hate the school and everything else but I was never late in my life and I am not gonna be this time. This was probably the dumbest thing I ever did in my entire boring and depressed life.

I started running towards the other side of the street like an idiot, and of course, I didn''t check the lights. I looked to my right and in that moment the only thing I could think of was "Seriously don''t this kind of things happen only in Japan?". A large yellow truck crashed into me, then the darkness I saw nothing nor felt anything. "Seriously a truck killed me, if there is a reincarnation, please let me be a plant!" I yelled out as loud as I could, not that I have any hope of someone hearing me, but still it''s worth to try right? I spent some time in this darkness, nothing happened for a while I don''t know how much time passed but I know I was bored very bored. If this went on for a little longer I might go crazy, maybe I already am crazy, I mean what sane person would just start counting out of nowhere just to pass my time. While I resumed my counting a white light appeared in the darkness, I reached out my hand towards it. When my hand was close enough to the light it suddenly started sucking me in, I tried to resist it but I failed, eventually, I just gave up and let the light suck me in. "I got nothing better to do anyway" those were my last thoughts before the light completely devoured me. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2: The world "From one dark place to another huh" Henry thought as he looked around him when the light sucked him in he thought something fun would finally happen but all he got was total darkness again. He kept looking around but no matter how hard he tried to find that one spark of light he couldn''t. "What was the point of the light sucking me in, if nothing is going to change?" he kept grumbling inside his head. "Welcome to Astoria your new world and your new home!" a bright text that startled Henry appeared before him. "Huh? Astoria?" Henry was confused but that did not matter as the bright text continued to flow and more letters appeared. "Now you might be wondering what I am and what''s happening at the moment, but do not worry all shall be explained." "Please do continue" Henry composed himself and focused his full attention on the floating bright letters. "You Henry Holden died in an accident as you may already know when you died your soul was supposed to move on into the circle of reincarnation" the letters kept going. "But due to some let''s say unfortunate things your soul ended up in the void, as you experienced it yourself it is a dark and cold place, no voice no sound no light, nothing that is the void" "Moving on, your soul spent a thousand of years in that place, I do apologize to you for that I as the Overseer carry the full responsibility for what happened" "Thousand years!? It felt just like an hour or two not thousand years" Henry was shocked by what he learned from this so called Overseer. "When your soul left your body you yelled you wanted to be a plant if I remember correctly not a choice many chose but I am not the one to question" "I granted your wish and I added a little bonus" Stolen content warning: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences."This will be the last thing I will inform you about, this world Astoria is a place of many dangers, wars and other things that in your world only existed in wildest fantasies, just a little heads up so you know what is waiting for you, good luck and may you find happiness in your new life!" the text slowly faded away with the last message from the so called Overseer. "Well, that explains a lot" Henry thought as he slowly accepted the things that happened to him. "So if I am a plant why is it so dark, I can''t see a damn thing!" Henry grumbled but stopped as he thought of something. "Umm status?" Henry said slowly, it didn''t take a second for a new text to appear in front of him. Name: Race: Plant-Seed "Huh? That''s all? No health points no mana points and those other things?At least I know why it''s so dark I am a seed" Henry stared at the text in front of him. "No health point, no mana points because you are not supposed to be a cheat that can see his own health or mana points" a strange voice started speaking Henry was startled for a few moments but calmed down. "Umm, who are you? Or what are you?" Henry asked. "I am a guide that was sent here to help you poor soul by the Overseer" the voice answered Henry it sounded robotic. "Okay, so what are you going to help me with exactly?" Henry asked suspiciously. "As I said I am a guide that will help you in this world, if you have any questions ask and I shall try my best to provide the answer you are seeking" the guide spoke in its robotic voice. "Okay I guess this will be helpful" --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Will try to make longer chapters enjoy.
