Chapter 1: The East Wind Collects

A man, with a height of 5"8, long black hair that draped over his back -most of the time it would be tied in a loose bun today was a today he had forget to tie it certainly wasn't the first time he forgot something minor-, pitch black eyes that were faced behind glasses that framed his face, an average face -that would make him blend any group- was walking through a street thought to be only empty aside from himself, oblivious to the surroundings the man locked on his screen viewing one of his favourite shows Sherlock (2010) this would be his 3rd rewatch of the show.

"The East wind is coming Sherlock, coming to get you" Mycroft Holmes said to his younger brother Sherlock Holmes.

"Bang"

Those were the last thing I had ever heard in his life, though not really, what the last thing I heard was the ringing -while bleeding out seemingly from the immense pain that came from his stomach, I knew trauma to that area would cause a painful and slow death- 'Gunshot wound to the gut, a slow way to die, though I guess I can still have a chance at survival if I get treated quickly' I thought, then as if death was disagreeing with me an immense pain suddenly erupted from my chest and stomach, almost as if saying "You will die tonight" -blood had begun to leak from his wound, slowly dying the surrounding white snow a crimson red-.

"Ha… Damn man, I didn't even get to finish Trash of a Counts family I was only halfway through, kept having to restar…" I coughed a mixture of spittle and blood -falling down, spraying on his face- midway through my sentence, 'Guess I can't go off and spout regrets like this'.

"Sigh" 'Why is this happening to me? Did I do something to deserve this? No, nobody deserves this, death isn't painless or just sleep it sucks, it fucking hurts so fucking much' "Cough, cough blegh'' pieces of blood and what seemed to be a chunk of human flesh flew from his mouth 'Damn, guess I was wrong about the GSW's location, must have been around my chest and respiratory system'.

I raised my hand over my chest and begun to slowly but surely move it around looking for the gunshot wound, "Gah" I screamed a loudly as one of my fingers accidentally applied a bit to much pressure on the GSW site 'Sure enough, right below below my second rib and above my third rib', I clenched my jaw and tilted my head back trying to asses the situation, 'Fuck, at least I binged Sherlock, haha guess that stuff will actually be useful to me, suck it Dad' I thought and tried to focus my blurry eyes on the wall that was above? -I didn't really known, my sense of direction had become skewed and my thought process had become muddled with pain, my perception became faster not allowing my brain to process the access information at its correct rate, my not so perfect vision without my glasses also added to the blur- 'Fuck, please just focus for a second, eyes for once in my goddamn lifetime work properly' I thought in desperation and finally as if my body was listening it begun to focus on the wall and saw there was no bullet hole or damage to the walls.

'So the bullet is still inside me huh? Good thing I fell on my back then, gravity is on my side, Wait no, doesn't that mean I'll die gurgling on my blood because it'll pool in my respiratory system? Fuck, drowning and suffocation is a lot worse than a gunshot to the gut'.

"Is that am lost, oh who will find me?... Deep down below the old beech tree, Help succour me now The East Wind Blow… Be not afraid to walk in the shade… Save one, save all, come try… Life is closer to heaven, looking down with a dark gaze from on high. Before he was gone… Who now will find him? Why nobody will… I that am queen… lost forever" A young Eurus Holmes had begun to sing 'I that am lost' -Not as if he could hear it, all that he was hearing at this point of ringing of various pitches sounding like harpies screeching in his ears-.

'"The East wind was a terrifying force that lays waste to all in its path"-Sherlock Holmes' 'Why did I even think of that? Maybe because it fits with death? How it's inevitable, how it's ruthless and gives no second chances, how it takes people away even those who are too young, those who haven't even finished a fraction of their full lives, those who haven't experienced love? Those who haven't viewed the world? Those who haven't made any meaningful connections? Fuck, what a horrible thing, death, truly a horrible thing' A gripping force started emanating from my body and brain -screaming for its need to breathe and gain oxygen- tears began to streak my already blurry vision, causing it to further shake and blur -at this point all he could see was the lights of the buildings on the side- the force force grew stronger after every second passed, it was pure agony.

'Why, am I even getting sentimental? Haha, I guess in front of death, -even though I knew this day would come, even though I thought I could accept it- all human instinct makes us afraid' my vision began to darken, as a the gripping sensation soon left my brain and body I fell into unconscious.

( POV switch, Narrator )

As the young man's body went limp -his chest no longer rising, his eye lids no longer moving, his heart stopped beating, bodily functions ceased- a multitude of dark blue wisps begun to slowly escape his body, a person who was down the road from him rushed towards him, -unknown to the wisps- he reached his phone and dialed the emergency services of his country and had begun to perform CPR to try and resuscitate.

9 minutes later, the emergency services arrived on scene to find a young man desperately trying to perform chest compressions on another man's body, Man-B ( Man performing chest compressions ) -unknown to all in the 9 minutes, the various dark blue wisps had converged at the loss of some of its dark blue hue turning it into a light baby blue, it had started to float into the chilly sky disappearing from view, not that anyone could see it-, emergency services quickly pulled Man-B off of Man-A ( Main character ) and begun resuscitation, a minute of failed resuscitation, did they finally realise he couldn't be saved -Brain death occurs after 10 minutes of prolonged oxygen deprivation- "Time of death, 9:12pm, 24th of December, 2022" one of the emergency service workers announced.

( View Switch, Main Characters Soul )

As the soul had begun to escape from his body it flew into the atmosphere, at this point it was travelling fast and quickly gaining more and more speed, soon its speed quickly made it disappear from the limits of human vision, it converged into a river of other souls, these ones where different as they were a milky white his baby blue soul stood out like a person with white hair in a crowd of black haired people. Each soul had flowed into different branching rivers -each leading to different universes, some leading back to this world, each one of these were at the same elevation,- it entered a seperate river, this one rather than on the same elevation was raised by multiple levels, it begun to flow in river which, connecting to this river was a another river far ahead which had allowed three souls to enter, 1 Dark Blue soul was already at the end of the river -Gray's soul-, 1 Blue soul was just behind the dark blue one -Nico's Soul-, and 1 white soul with barely any blue -Cecillia's Soul- was a bit of the distance away from this two, all there of these souls were still a very long way from the the Baby Blue Soul, it was going to be in this river for a while.

( Time Skip )

As the Baby Blue soul began its flow in the now desolate river -the three souls had already left the river and had been reincarnated- it had already made it ½ of the way through the river.

Suddenly, a dark blue seed -The Soul Seed#1 hadn't been extinguished like Leylin and the main A.I had thought rather the A.I chip fragment inside of it had lost connection to the main one- the soul seed had been speeding above the rivers, it had suddenly stopped right above the Baby Blue Soul like it was deciding whether to do something, the soul seed looking as if it had made its decision sped up and fused with the Baby Blue soul, the memories and experiences that Leylin had sent into the soul seed though hadn't been fused and the A.I chip had fused with the Baby Blue soul turning it into its new host.

[ Beep! Collecting the fragmented memories of Leylin Farlier and filed under 'Leylin Farlier and Feng Ming memories and experiences' ] the A.I chip had quickly collected the memories and experiences of Leylin that hadn't been fused and that quickly got scanned and filed, though most of the fragments had already been lost to the river.

[ Beep! Memories of Kai Fenriart have been recorded and filed under new file 'Kai Fenriart memories and experiences' ]

[ Beep! Scan Complete! Reincarnation in process, A.I will turn off until process is complete as to not cause any complications for new hosts soul ]
