2 Chapter 1 Zero

The soul begins to rouse from its sleep. It had no eyes to speak of to open but it slowly became aware of the situation around it.

[Rise and shine Zero. How do you feel?] Asked Nyx in a bubbly tone

'Zero what's that?' the soul asked in a groggy confused state

[That's your name dear boy. I'm your mommy now or I could be your daddy. Which one would you like?] asked Nyx in a serious

Zero simply stared at the empty void in complete disbelief at what this Supreme Being was asking it. 'I'll just call you mother since Nyx is a female goddess in Greek mythology. Thank you for the name, Mother.' Zero finally managed to get out a thought after his mind froze from the sudden and unexpected question.

[Aww you don't want to call me mommy. You're breaking mommy's heart.] whined Nyx

'Do you even have a body or an actual heart? Never mind that you said we were out of time so how long before my soul explodes' Zero asked as the initial shock dissipated and he was reminded of his mother's words before losing consciousness.

[Ahh that you're good now. You can stay in this realm forever without exploding now yay! More haven't you noticed the changes in your soul now?] Nyx really wonder how Zero hadn't noticed that its soul had stopped the nervous shaking it had been doing the entirety of the previous conversation. [The reason you're no longer shaking and feel nervous and anxious is because now you're my son.] Nyx said in a proud tone

Zero focused its awareness on itself and found that its white orb soul had transformed into a swirling black hole that had shades of purple and red mixed in. 'So what am I now? Am I whatever you are?' Zero asked Nyx

[Nope you're still a human soul. It's just that you've gone from a pure soul with some chaos affinity to a soul with perfect chaos affinity. If you want to be big and strong like mommy you've got a long way to go. To help you get started I added something to your soul during the transformation it should start up soon.] Nyx chuckled at her sons' notion of being on the same level as her. She hoped he would indeed grow strong enough to one day rival herself. To that end, she would provide him with the best aid she could.

Zero noticed a set of words appearing in front it.

HOST CONFIRM NAME

Zero was a bit bewildered that its mother would install a system inside it. It was aware of how systems were from the knowledge remaining in its mind. 'Zero' confirming its name to see what type of system it got.

HOST NAME REGISTERED AS "ZERO"

MOMMY'S BIG BOY GOT HIS FIRST SYSTEM READY TO BEGIN

'Looks like I'm a boy. Is it possible to change that name?' asked Zero as he refuse to react because he was aware that his mother was waiting for him to do so.

YES. WHAT NAME WOULD YOU LIKE TO REGISTER?

'Chaos System' said Zero

CONFIRM NAME WILL NOW BE CHAOS SYSTEM

'Confirmed' said Zero

NAME CHANGED

[Aww you don't like mommy's naming sense. I thought it was an amazing name.] whined Nyx

'I can't tell if you're joking or not but I sincerely hope that you are.' said Zero in a calm almost monotone voice.

[Haha okay enough joking around. It's time for present number two!] said Nyx as a woman slowly appeared from the endless void carrying the body of a young man.

The woman had long flowing white hair that reached her feet but was tied into twin tails flowing at her back. Her face was covered only showing a beautiful pair of rose-colored lips arched in the most dazzling smile ever seen. Her skin was snow white with only her hand starting from her elbow being completely black. She wore a beautiful black dress that looked like it was made out of the pitch-black endless void itself that have a couple of white jewels that looked like actual stars attached to it.

The young man had straight long white hair that flowed to his back and had smooth white skin like that of a newborn baby. He had a pair of luminous amber eyes so light that if shown during the day they would be mistaken as golden. He looked to be about 17 or 18 years old. The young man wore a simple black T-shirt with black jeans and black and white sneakers.

The woman flew up to the floating black hole-like soul and said in the voice of Nyx "Well what do you think of your new body doesn't it look handsome?" She seemed very proud and looked eagerly at Zero.

Zero said nothing being shocked to see Nyx. "Aww don't tell me that your mommy is so beautiful you can think. Mommy's so embarrassed when you look at her like she's the most beautiful woman alive," said Nyx as she crack a beautiful smile with her hand on her cheeks.

'I didn't say or think that so please don't put words in my mind mother. I was just surprised that you looked exactly like the goddess Nox from a game I played before. I do think you look nice thought.' said Zero in an exasperated tone seeming to not understand his mother's sense of humor.

"Aww thanks, sweetie, and of course I look like her I chose this image from your mind since you thought I would look like her. I told you before that you're unable to comprehend my true form currently FYI I look better than this. So until you can I created this avatar for myself to converse with you temporally." Said Nyx in a playful manner as she spun around to show off her new avatar.

"Now let's get you inside your new body." With a wave of her hand, Zero's soul flew straight into the young man. As the swirling hole of black, red, and purple was absorbed into the young man his golden eyes with had a dead look suddenly sprung to life.

'Warn me before you do that please Mother.' thought the young man who had now become Zero. He felt a weird sensation throughout his new body that felt like an itch that couldn't be scratched. The itch disappeared slowly after a few seconds.

"I don't think it would have been a pleasant experience for you even if you knew it was coming so I voted to not let you know. So any discomfort anywhere?" said Nyx as she flew over to him and gave him a quick once-over to make sure that everything was okay. After checking she let out a sigh of relief since she'd never personally created a human body before.

'Everything feels okay. Although I say that I don't actually remember what a body feels like. I remember what I did when I was alive but I can remember any else about my experience not even how my body felt. It's truly a strange experience to know I was alive before but feel like this is the first time I've actually lived.' Thought Zero as he went into his own little world trying to figure out whether he should consider this his first or second life.

"Hey Zero I've been wondering why you've been using your mind instead of your mouth to talk. Does it not work did I make a mistake?" wondered Nyx

"No, it's fine it's simply that I got too used to using my mind to talk that I forgot I could use my mouth. Don't worry Mother this body is perfect it feels nice like I was always meant to be in her." Zero wanted to comfort his mother and not make her worry about him.

"Okay good then now that you have a body it's time to teach you how the system works before we get to the last gift." said Nyx excitedly
