At times like these, the only hope we possibly have... Hope? I gave out that word a long time ago. My entire life was spent in creating numerous Stories, whether based from Legends, or a fiction made by my Ever-creating mind. It hurts. I can clearly see the limits of a human mind can store over a while. In order to compensate for the lack of space, my cursed Brain had started to remove my emotions. I can barely, no. I can't feel happiness anymore. But that doesn't mean I can't feel pain. I can't handle it anymore... I just want my curse to stop. To rest my head, To stop grinding this keyboard.
To Start Over again.
"Is that what you truely want?" A voice said softly. Looking around, I saw nothing but however, as I scanned more thoroughy, I noticed something glimmered. I saw a silhouette. It's glimmering body well hidden, except for the Distorted, Glimmering air.
"W-Who... Ar-re Y-You?" I said for the first time in years. It was a painful process. My throat's parched dry, But I needed to do it.
The Silhouette turned into a Girl who had an Elegant green dress, and an Elegant Throne made from leaves and branches.
"I am Gaia" She sat down on her Throne. "And I have an offer for you"
I would take any offer just to actually remove my Curse.
"Y-Yes?" My throat ached all the more, But I set that aside.
"Perfect then! I will place you in another life" She looked at the endless sky of Monochromatic Codes. "But, in exchange, After you die, I would have you sent to missions. The more you enjoy your life, the higher the price you'll have to pay" She looks at the clock in my room.
"I..." Breathing in air, I willed my throat for the pain to come. "Agree!"
"Mmm..." She nods in affirmation. "I'll see you at the end of your new Life then"
And with that, everything turned black. Including my senses.
Waking up, I looked around. There was a load of dust and smoke around me. Could I have been dreaming and my house is actually on fire? After the dust dispersed, I had found myself in a field. Around me was a lot of teens. Looking at my hands, It was much more healthier and younger than my previous body. Gaia did keep her promise about being placed in another life.
"-I summon another familiar, Mister Colbert?" Turning my head towards the voice, I found a strawberry-blonde haired girl, arguing with a an Older Bald man.
"I am sorry Louise, but that would be tarnishing the laws of Brimir himself" The Man apologized
The girl, after huffing and puffing, made her way to me.
"You!" She points at me. "Yes! You! Come over here!" I do as she complies.
She pulls out a stick, a wand, as far as my mind could tell. She chants something in a language I can't understand.
"Be grateful for this, commoner" She said with words, clearly meaning anger.
"What do-" She kisses me. After getting out of my Shock, I pull away. "What did you do that for?!" I demanded
My left hand burned shortly after. I kneeled on the ground while clutching my burning hand. It took most of my willpower in order to restrain myself from shouting. The pain finally stopped. I looked at my hand. Runes, as they were called, were etched. Although, the Runes kept constantly changing, until it finally stopped at a set of runes.
"What did you do to me?" I asked out, my expression displayed 'Annoyed'
"From now on, You are now my familiar" Scanning through my memories, I found the meaning of 'Familiar' and It does not sound good.
Basically, For my life, I will serve this Girl. With. My. Life. But am I in the place to complain? This is just a life given to me by Gaia. Thank her. She even let me keep my memories, and most importantly, my previous life.
"Ahem" Snapping me out of my thoughts, I looked and saw the Bald Man. "Can I please see your Runes?"
I handed out my Hand for him to see. Using a piece of Charcoal, he copied the runes to parchment. Observing One last time, he finally nodded and thanked me.
"That's all for today class. You may now go to your respective rooms" As if a bomb, waiting to explode, All of these students left. Almost quite instantanous. And they all flew away, throwing one last glance at the Girl. They all flew away... Like Magic. Wait... this is a World of Magic. Isn't it? Heading towards a Stone Castle, the Girl was walking. I followed her
Chains... Chains and a Book stood by him. He furiously wrote and grinded the quill, hoping to match the stories being constantly created in his head. The Book was a Library, comprised of 10 Libraries, which each Library i consisted of no less than a trillion books... So, to sort things out, the Book was... well, Not a Average Book. But rather, It is much bigger than a Galaxy and It definitely keeps getting bigger and bigger every second. After a few more seconds of writing, the book exploded. He sighed. His work was finally done. He was going to pick a successor. Happens to be unluckily me.
That dream... That was me. My name used to be Delrich. I can't remember my family name anymore. Shaking off my thoughts, I rose and looked at my 'bed'. A pile of Hay. Atleast, It's better than the cold stone ground.
I looked at my 'Master' as last night, she told me to call her. She was still sleeping. I looked at the window. The moon. No. The moons, one green, the other red, are in the middle of the nightsky. As I left the room, silent as I could, and breathed in deeply. Sleeping was something I never done a Long time ago. Looking st the Runes on my hand, I set my mind on it. This was a New Life, and these Runes prove it otherwise. I wore the Golden Ring with a Sapphire encrusted on it. I just had found this on my pocket. Along with it said,
"Goodluck with your New Life"
-Gaia
After muttering a small thanks for her, I decided to explore the place.
Exploring the unexplored areas, I came across two lovers. A boy with Blonde Hair and a Girl with Brown hair. Maybe, I shouldn't interrupt them. While sneaking past them, I couldn't help hut snicker at one of the boy's lines. I've been compromised.
"How dare you" The Boy called out "Interrupt into our Business?" He got a rose and pointed it at me. Something told me that It was a Wand.
"Sorry, But I'm just exploring the area" I apologized. He lowered his rose.
"Wait..." His eyes glinted. "Are you the one who was summoned by Louise?" He demanded immediately
"If you talk about the Girl with the Pink hair, then yes" I answered
"Well then," He begins "You are forgiven" He dramatically flicks his hair upwards, which made the girl giggle.
I nodded at him, then continued off walking. While exploring, I encountered a Dragon and a Fire-Creature thing.
This, I can agree, Is the strangest world that I have ever seen yet.
