Hey again. this isn't really a second chapter, more of a refined version of the first chapter, and there are already variations to the plot... Yeah. basically a rewrite I guess.
…
The void -well not really, more like a gap between dimensions- was not a fun place to be after a while. Is that why I'm talking to myself? Meh, I'm probably insane…
Well… lets ignore that… or at least try to. I don't think it's going to leave me alone.
…Where was I again?
Right. Gap between dimensions. Yeah. Not fun at all. I don't even know how I got here in the first place. One night I was studying really hard as a completely normal -well… maybe not that normal. A bit antisocial, a bit unemotional and just overall detached- university student and then I woke up here. Here being the dimensional gap. Actually… can getting yourself into a study coma lead to trans-dimensional transportation? No? Okay.
Though, I have to say that it wasn't always like this. At first, it really was a void, with nothing but darkness. I don't really like the dark -sue me!- or complete lack of sensory input, so I thought about how I wanted something -ANYTHING!- that could at least keep me company and out of the darkness. I'm not afraid of the dark, just what I can't see. Okay? Good.
The shock on my face was quite obvious, when an orb of pure energy just appeared in front of me, emitting an etherial and comforting glow. Screw the power of friendship, the power of imagination it is! And being the curious person I was, I went along and tried to grab it. I didn't want to lose the only source of comfort I had, in the short time I was in the void. It probably wasn't a good idea, but hindsight really is 20/20.
I was proved correct when the ball proceeded to basically explode -no sound of course, since it was the void- sending the immense, and near infinite energy expanding outwards in every imaginable direction. It was really wondrous looking at it from up close, truly one of the most incredible things I had ever seen at that point in time. Honestly speaking, it is still probably the greatest thing I have seen.
However, whatever I decided to grab hadn't just exploded, no, it had created a strange looking portal which seemed dead set on sucking me in. I tried pretty hard to get away, but I really wasn't making any progress against the force, only breaking even with it. So I eventually just went 'fuck it' -like I do with everything else- and just gave up. That was basically how I got trapped in the dimensional gap.
How do I know this place is the gap? I don't really. It just looks like the dimensional gap from Highschool DxD. Yeah… I have no idea either…
Considering how much this already sounds like a shitty self insert fic, I wouldn't be surprised if I had somehow become a girl during this whole process either. It was during that exact train of thought that I noticed my long, lustrous and jet black hair.
Fuck.
Then I noticed my hands. They were still as thin and as noodle like as before, but it seemed more delicate in a way.
Fuck!
It didn't help that my hands seemed to be perfectly manicured and softer than clouds. Though that wasn't really that bad. Soft hands are nice.
Though still. FUCK.
I just had to go and tempt the god damn universe didn't I?
I reluctantly looked down to observe the rest of my body which I now full well expect to be female. What I saw -well what I didn't see actually- freaked me out just a little. My sight was blocked by a huge pair of tits.
FUUUUUUUCK! -yes I like that word a lot. Sue me!-
I was without a doubt a… girl? Woman? Yeah woman fits better considering how mature my body looks.
I let out a sigh. Maybe I can Imagine myself turning back into a guy? Worth a try.
…Yeah no, it doesn't work. Stupid power of imagination! Guess I'm stuck in the body of a woman.
Why is that a bad thing I hear you ask?
Being a girl is too much effort. Simple as that. I'm a lazy ass and I can't be screwed trying to deal with it. I'd rather not have to deal with back pain from having large breasts or that time of the month. Yeah, I'd rather not have periods considering the fact that I heard those tend to hurt, and bleed, don't forget the bleeding.
I never realised what I had until it was gone. It was way too easy as a guy.
Well, there's no point complaining about something I can't change. At least I get to grope a pair of tits for the first time. Always think of the positives right?
Fondling myself feels really good. Does that sound weird? Probably does, but I don't really care right about now. Pleasure all that frustration away!
After playing with my breasts for a good long while, I was reminded that I had lower regions as well from the wet sensation I was feeling down there.
I want to keep hating the fact that I'm a woman, but daaaaaamn -plus other sexual moaning sounds I'm too embarrased to admit I let out-, it feels nice sticking fingers inside myself. Guess that's one bonus for being of the fairer sex. Sex feels better. Who would've thought? Definitely not me, that's for sure.
After a lot of… experimenting with myself -and boy did the power of imagination come in handy- I finally decided to spend my time doing more useful things.
Things like making myself clothes. And when I thought about it a bit more, I realised that I had run into my first problem already. HOW IN THE HELL DO BLOODY BRAS WORK!? I have no idea and I don't see any women nearby who could help. Ugh.
After realising that doing nothing was in fact not helping, I -finally- decided to do something about it. Putting my mind to work for the first time in a good long while, and finding out that I seemed to have a perfect photographic -or was it eidetic?- memory, I create myself a patch of ground with working gravity. Well, a platform that was constantly accelerating at a rate of 9.81 meters per second. And then, I proceed to stand on it and experience gravity for the first time in forever.
Yes it isn't practical, but as far as I know, the dimensional gap is infinitely large, and this platform works purely off of my own imagination. It works and I'd rather not do the maths to try and calculate the velocities needed for generating the correct centripetal force or something like that.
Either way, after my legs stopped feeling like jelly and I stopped feeling nauseous, I noticed something: my boobs seem to defy physics. Yup, definitely DxD, no other explanation works in this situation. The globes of fat on my chest literally seem to ignore gravity and hold their perfect perky shape. Though they do sway around a lot, enough to make me lose my balance. For once, I was glad that I was alone in here. I did not need people seeing me struggling to walk just because my tits were swaying all over the place.
At least I accomplished what I set out to do. I made myself a pair of working bras. Take that stupid universe!
And after that, I spent a while considering designs and stuff. Did it really matter? Probably not. I mean honestly, why does it matter how lacy my undergarments are? They just need to be soft and do their job right? But the sheer fact that I could make anything that I wanted, made sure that I wouldn't settle for any low quality things. Talk about being excessively vain.
After that was done, and I was wearing a white coloured robe thing, an item of clothing that is actually comfortable to wear because it was made from super soft magic cotton, I decided to further explore my powers. Yeah, I can't believe I decided to make myself clothes and pleasure myself with my powers before trying to figure them out either. Actually no… I'm a guy, an apparently vain guy, with the body of a woman, so it probably does make sense.
What I know so far is that I can basically do anything and everything I want, except turn myself into a male. Whoever did this to me is most definitely laughing their ass off right about now. Of that I'm sure. Though I have to say… it definitely sounds overpowered as hell on paper that's for sure. Am I immortal? Wait… can I imagine myself to be immortal?
…I don't feel any different that before… eh, doesn't really matter I'll take what I can get honestly.
Back to exploring my overpowered-ness!
…
I can TELEPORT! Holy shit this is awesome! And if I can teleport… I can get out of here! Wouldn't that be some good news?
Think! Where do I want to go? My old city?
.
.
.
Nope, doesn't work. What about somewhere from the anime? Good old Kuoh?
.
.
.
Nope. Somewhere in the underworld? Uhh… Lucifaad?
.
.
.
Nope. Nothing.
Lilith? Agreas? Somewhere on Earth!?
Nothing.
Of course. OF COURSE IT COULDN'T BE THAT EASY! Why did I even think for a second that that would work? So like any rational person, I just sulked around, making perfect use of my time.
That just meant I spent most of my time in the gap just floating around aimlessly. I tried making some games to pass the time, but knowing the story kinda ruins the whole point of playing in the first place, though at least I got to practice writing code. Yeah… I'm basically an all powerful being which can make anything into reality, and I'm just floating around sticking fingers and other things inside of myself or writing code. I hope I haven't lost you.
Well, I have kept figuring out my powers, not that there was really much else to figure out really. Most of it was just refining them to be as efficient as humanly -am I still even human?- possible. Though I did find out I could manipulate energy. I may, or may not have Kamehameha'd more than a few times. Who knows? Only me that's who!
Honestly though, I was just about to resign myself to a life of mind numbing boredom when I run face to face with a giant, and I mean giant, white dragon coming out from a blue tinged portal. I was kind of relieved to see another face after such a long time in isolation, but the fact that this big white dragon could teleport kinda annoyed me. WHY DOES HE GET TO TELEPORT TO OTHER PLACES WHEN I CAN'T!? I would've stamped my foot for added effect, but that was too much effort. Though still, I'm not alone any more!
"Hi!" I greet him a little excitedly, maybe a bit too excitedly after staring at the dragon for a bit longer, making sure that I wasn't just hallucinating.
"Greetings little goddess. What are you doing here?" He asks me. At least he didn't eat me, not that I would let him of course. I'd rather not die a second time, especially since I haven't done anything in this life yet.
Honestly though, I don't really know what I'm doing here either, I just studied too hard one day and poof here I am. I guess I should answer the dragon though.
"Don't really know Mr. uhhh Dragon… sir? I just randomly woke up here one day." Probably not the best of replies, but I haven't really interacted with another being for quite some time now... Is that a valid excuse?
Luckily for me the dragon laughs.
"Hahahahaha! I go by many names, but Mr. Dragon sir is definitely a new one. Tell me your name little goddess and I may be willing to tell you mine." Huh, the dragon is actually pretty chill… Not that they weren't chill in the anime and stuff.
But shit! I can't really use my old name, maybe a gender bent version of it? Uhhh, hang on… what was my name again? Of all the things to forget… I guess my memory isn't perfect after all.
"I… don't have one, and if I did, I've long since forgotten it. Even I don't know how long I've been here."
"You can always just make up a name for yourself little goddess."
I just frown at him. "Did you just assume I was stupid and hadn't thought of such an obvious thing already? Thinking of a good name takes too much effort, and then I would be here forever. You do it."
Albion growls, a deep and intimidating rumble leaving his maw. "Did you just order me little goddess?"
I shrug. "Pretty much, so just gimme a name will you? Or go away or something if that's too hard."
Albion frowns for a moment longer before he lets out a chuckle, shaking his head in what seemed to be amusement. "Maybe you are too blunt for your own good, but I will entertain you just this once, if only to prove that such a task is mere child's play for one such as me." The dragon pauses for a moment to think. "Yes, you will be known as Celestia from now."
I ponder on it for a few second. "It's not half bad Blue Eyes, I'll take it." It really wasn't bad, it had a nice ring to it as well. Cel-es-tia!
"Not half bad!? It is the perfect name!"
I tilt my head to the side, a single eye brow raised in question. "Why?"
"Because I, Albion, the white dragon of Supremacy gave it to you! Need there be another reason?"
I shrug once again. "Sure. Anyways, what are you doing here? This is quite quite a boring place." It really is true, nothing happens here, at all. I though Great Red and Ophis were meant to live here. "Actually, what's this place called anyways?"
"Why should I tell you little goddess?" He replies with a smug look.
"Eh… you don't have to, I don't really mind if you don't know."
"I do know."
"You do? Then why didn't just tell me?"
"Equal exchange, little goddess. Why should I give you something for nothing in return?"
"What?" I knew dragons were meant to be greedy creatures, but seriously? Wanting something in return to just tell me this place is the dimensional gap? But I still needed to continue this little charade that I was somewhat clueless. "Uhh… okay," I snap my fingers and a little gold materialises in front of me, "would this make you talk?"
Albion merely raises one of his brows.
Snap.
"My mouth is getting a little looser."
Ugh. Snap.
"Maybe a little more and I'll feel like talking little goddess."
Snap. Snap. Snap. Snap. Snap. What? Excessive? No… this is just in case he was lying. "Here you go Albion."
He merely nods in thanks -do dragons even say thanks?- before shoving the substantial pile of shiny metal… uhh somewhere.
"So?"
"So what little goddess?" He asks in mock confusion.
"I gave you the gold, so can you answer my question?"
"What gold little goddess?" He asks in a completely innocent matter not befitting a dragon of his stature.
The deadpan eyes I gave him were even emptier than the void I had found myself in when I first came here. I was glad that I got a shiver out of him for that. "Seriously!?" This time I actually bother to materialise some solid ground to stamp my feet on. "What do you want then for you to actually answer my questions?"
"You."
What!? I point to myself. "Me?"
"Yes you."
"But it's only one question!"
Albion shakes his head, the silver strands of his mane swishing about at the action. "You are a terrible liar little goddess. Because you," he points a clawed finger right at me, "you are getting far more out of this than just one answer. Being trapped in here isn't the most entertaining is it?"
…shit. "Still… you're asking me to sell myself?" I shake my head. "No way am I doing that." The thought alone makes me feel dirty.
Albion shrugs… well kind of… I think? "Worth a try. Either way, I can't really hang around much longer without turning into nothingness so I'll be off. Good bye Celestia."
Ah, so this is the Dimensional Gap, not that surprising considering it looks exactly like what the anime depicted. And… oh the dragon left already… haah, guess I'll just wallow in boredom for another long while.
…
"Albioooooon! Come baaaack! I'm booooored!" I yell into the gap. Nothing happens.
"Stop ignoring meeeeeee!" It wasn't like the stupid dragon could actually hear me if he was in another dimension. Though… he wouldn't have done that right? That would be weird, creepy as heck, and very embarrassing.
A dragon gate opened a few meters away from me. For a moment I thought that yes, Albion had in fact left behind a magical bug of some sort, but it wasn't the silver blue of the Vanishing Dragon, no, it was red, with tinges of green. This was most likely Ddraig, the Welsh Dragon.
Hopefully he isn't as greedy as Albion. Wait… who am I kidding.
Surprisingly however, it wasn't the dragon I was met with, no, it was someone clad in the [Boosted Gear Scale Mail]. The armour looking way cooler in person, the wings being extended and everything!
Though that would explain why Albion hadn't returned… He had managed to get sealed away, and for a few years at least, considering that Ddraig's host could use balance breaker and had enough power to resist the energies of the dimensional gap. Serves the stupid dragon right! I bet it wouldn't have happened if he had been less of a prick and just let me hang around.
Whoever was in the armour, didn't seem all that excited to see me however, as they had just been glaring at me the moment they had noticed my presence. "What are you doing here?" A he, it seems, asks me in a dangerous tone. It honestly sounded like the dude thought he owned the place, talk about letting power get to your head.
"I live here… What's your reason?"
"I am here to train, so you wi-"
"Oooh, can we spar then? I'm so bored here!" I interrupt him partway through. I'm not really interested in sparring him though, he is super weak as far I can tell, I just wanted to get closer to the boosted gear. It was more interesting than whoever this person is meant to be, even if they are strong enough to use the scale mail.
The boosted gear user merely laughs. "You? Fight me? What a farce! I have the strength of a dragon behind me while you are just a mere woman! Though consider yourself lucky that I may just keep you after I win this instead of killing you."
Yeah… no. I was gonna let the guy go with his life, but now I'm going to rip the damn gear right out of his soul. I hate being underestimated and I don't really appreciate being treated like an object. Man, girls have it tough.
He didn't even have time to react, or even get in a boost, before the connection between him and the gear was completely and utterly shattered, the gear being isolated from the system god had made. I looked at the clawed gauntlet in my hand, before willing it to turn into something more my size, sliding it onto my hand after the change had taken place.
All the damn idiot could do during this was scream helplessly as his body slowly disintegrated into the same nothingness that made up the rest of the gap. I felt kind of bad about it, but he should've know better than to antagonise someone who lives in the dimensional gap.
[You know… I should be angry that you killed my very first host in such an undignified manner…]
But you aren't right? The guy was annoying.
[Agreed, the fool only used my power, and not even that well. Either way, I must ask why?]
Can't you just look through my head for the… wait! Don't look through my head!
[A little too late for the warning, Celestia… So… how does it feel without the eherm… equipment down below?]
Honestly not too bad, you just need time to adjust… though maybe that's just me? I'm not sure how someone like you would react to being gender bent.
[Hmm. And what about the part where this world is an… ecchi manga? Whatever that's meant to mean. How am I meant to feel about being fictional?]
How should I know Ddraig? I'm in the same damn universe as you and I feel real enough.
Ddraig grunts in acceptance, before going silent for a moment.
Hey! Stop snooping through my mind you creep!
[I am not snooping Cel, I already saw everything the first time… there isn't very much to sort through.]
Is that an insult or what?
[No. Merely the truth, you only had 18 years of memories to sort through, they were however extremely interesting.]
Do you do this with every host of yours? I mean… I'm not even your host and you're filing through my head.
[It is not every day you get to look through the head of a trans-dimensional 18 year old man turned space goddess.]
You definitely have a point there… anyways, do you have anywhere nice we could go? I'm so bored in here.
The dragon sighs. [I definitely understand what you are saying Cel… I've only been in here for two years and I want to kill myself or at least scratch my eyes out. You have earned my respect for being able to manage for I can only assume to be millennia.]
It took my mind a few moments to process what the dragon just said to me.
Seriously!? Whoah, you said that right!? You… a dragon respect me!?
The dragon huffs, but otherwise doesn't say anything.
Come on! Why am I not allowed to get excited over that!?
Again the dragon grumbles something under his breath before replying properly.
[For a man you act much like how I would expect a woman to.]
Hey! Stupid dragon I'll have you know tha-
[And as for your question, go here.]
Don't just brush over the fact that you insul-
My head gets filled images of quite simply the most amazing place I have ever seen.
Wha… where is this!?
[This where I reside Cel. I would like to see if nothing has been tampered with during my absence.]
Someone's getting a little ahead of themselves. Asking me over before even the first date?
The dragon sighs. [Do not remind me of what I'm missing while trapped in here…]
And you were so considerate as to not remind me of just what I was missing weren't you?
[Of course. How inconsiderate of me.] the dragon replies with a roll of his eyes. How do I know? I just do, it must be like a woman thing.
Don't you roll your eyes at me mister. Especially not when I have your home in my hands.
[Nothing you do will be worse than this Cel. Spending the rest of eternity being trapped in here is quite the bleak situation.]
Nothing you say? So… Not even being turned into a woman?
[Cel… No!]
Cel yes!
[Sorry! I'm sorry! Anything but that! Please!]
I pause for a moment... did I actually get a dragon to say sorry as well as please? But still, he insulted what little remained of my masculinity and that would not do! He needed to be tought a lesson.
Snap!
…
