- Jonathan Holmes -
You know after you die it's not as bad as it seems, when you die that's the problem a never ending headache as if millions of bees were walking around in your brain, but going back to the subject of being dead it's like being in a jacuzzi forever without moving, without worries just existing you know what I'm talking about it's good, but after a while it gets boring you do nothing, literally nothing you just stand there looking at the infinite seeing that white light expanding.
When I was alive I was not very important in the grand schemes of the universe, an only child with normal parents a bakery mother and a father who coordinated a local delivery company with trucks, I liked the basics of geek culture anime, manga and superheroes like Batman and Iron Man not an obsessive fan, but I knew the basics I guess.
I died on my way back from college when I was a first-semester biology major, after a disastrous intro biology exam, it seems that biology wasn't for me since I failed the first intro exam, I took a bus that was robbed and got two shots in the thief's chest because the idiot thought I was a cop, I still get angry about that to this day, I don't even know how much time has passed in infinity to show how I hold a grudge.
If I had known I was going to get shot twice I would have reacted you know so I wouldn't die for nothing by giving a karate chop or whatever but I don't know karate or any martial art, you know that theory that says what goes around comes around anyway no matter what you or anyone else does it seems like that was my day
Going back to infinity with the light I think it has reached some critical point because it is annoying me a little bit blinking on and off it is getting colder too I don't think this was ever supposed to happen in who knows how long I have been here that the temperature has changed, damn my head is hurting the same way as when I died it is not possible that I am being erased from infinity what fucking luck I have being erased from life now being erased from the void.
Location [ unknown alley ]
"AAAARGH", damn I screamed like a little girl, wait where I am.
This sure as hell isn't emptiness because emptiness sure as hell doesn't look like an alley where everybody who crosses it sure as hell gets mugged, I get up and realize that I'm dressed like a beggar only a beggar who sure as hell has been disemboweled because my clothes which are a torn blue sweatshirt all dirty with blood and what I think is vomit and my jeans all torn up too and smelling like piss, damn it's wet too so I pissed my pants.
First I have to get my bearings then I solve the problem of the shitty clothes I look in both directions and realize that towards the end of the alley there is a trail of blood starting from the wall I woke up on I know it's not a good idea to follow a trail of blood, but I have to do it to find out what the fuck is going on here.
Walking to the end of the alley I see a light that looks like a rainbow shining, my extinct tells me to touch the light, but my rational brain says "Don't do this shit as soon as the zombie apocalypse starts" I mean no pain no gain when I touch the light I hear a voice like Alexa in my brain starts to say
"Welcome to your new universe you have been transmigrated to a new chance at life along with golden finger the Gacha System we know the situation can be confusing so we prepared this tutorial good luck."
Wow a transmigration at least it's not a reincarnation must be a pain to be born again like a baby, after a few seconds a message appears in front of me:
"Do you wish to know the memories of this body ?"
[NO] [YES]
Of course I wish, I press the [YES] button and then a movie plays in my head as if I were in a movie theater eating popcorn and just enjoying the show, after the memories are over another message appears:
"Memory successfully effectuated do you wish to proceed with tutorial ?"
[NO] [YES]
I still don't press it, first I sit on the floor next to where I was stabbed by a mugger on my way home after buying coffee and think a little about the life of this body, I have the same name Jonathan Holmes but I am 15 again, son of Marisa Holmes and Anthony Holmes, my father in this new life was an airline pilot and my mother was a security guard, now guess who they worked for, Bruce Fucking Wayne, that's right my mother was Batman's security guard, it's kind of funny if you think about it, she protected him during the day when he left Wayne Manor and my father flew his jet when he wasn't out in the Bat Jet or the Bat-Airplane or the Bat-see there.
I speak all in the past tense because they died, they were killed in an attack by Charade an explosion he planted when he left Arkham to make his way back to the streets, some of the concrete that was blown up fell on them when they were coming home from work together, at least they didn't suffer before they died that the doctor told me.
After sitting around freaking out a bit when I realize that I am in the DC universe in the most criminal city in the United States and have to go through puberty again I press the button to continue the tutorial.
"The Gacha System is totally random you can win anything from a mint to superpowers totally out of reality all you have to do is play"
"Say [Status] to see your panel"
I do what the Alexa in my head says and speak "[Status]" and a panel appears in front of me.

"Each gacha spin costs 100 coins and you earn from 0 to 100 every day, but also randomly, all gacha items are indestructible, do not run out of power or ammo cannot be stolen or used unless you allow it."
Whew, one less thing to worry about both not having to do some mission every day and not having to worry about my stuff being stolen.
"10 tokens were given away for you to start after spinning the tutorial ends so good luck in your new universe"
I better get out of this alley at least with something to protect me, I stop, take a deep breath, pray to the gods of good luck and spin my 10 tokens.
