Reborn!

After I died everything went black and all sensations seized to exist, leaving me in a void of nothingness. I suddenly felt in a split second all my senses kick in, first, it was the feeling of just having a body again, then it was my nose that picked up a potent, and beautiful scent. It had this calming effect that made you feel as though you were comfortable even in this incomprehensible situation. Next, I opened my eyes and all I could see was this straight pathway that glowed white, floating in the blue sky surrounded by clouds. The pure white pathway that was 10 feet wide and had guard rails on the side. It lead straight for about 50 feet before you could see a beautiful being, it wasn't clear whether it was a male or female. It was wearing nothing but long white robes. Before I could even try to start making sense of the situation it spoke up in a gentle and soothing voice.

"Hello Jon, Im sure you are very confused but I will explain everything, first I will say this you are dead and you cannot go back to your earth. However, due to your insufficient life experience, I can not send you to heaven or hell. So instead you will be reincarnated into another world different from your own. You have 3 options either a parrel world to earth, a futuristic planet, or a swords and magic world. However I warn you that the swords and magic world is never in peace, it has monsters that constantly attack people, and conflicts between humanoid races are not uncommon. However, it is also a free world where you can adventure and explore without any rules stopping you."

Not even having to think since Jon always read fantasy books and dreamed of using magic to slay monsters while exploring the world.

"I choose the swords and magic world!"

"Fitting choice, now before I send you off, I have one last thing to give you before I send you off. You can ask me any wish that is within reason. Some examples are enhanced strength, being good looking, you get the point."

Thinking for a moment Jon debated all his options, He could get anything he wanted that would help him in this foreign world, but soon he thought of something that all the heroes from the novels he loved had, It was their previous life's memory's so they wouldn't make the same mistakes they did during their previous life.

"I want to keep my memories from my last life!"

The divine being had a surprised look for a second but soon turned into a slight smile as if approving of this decision.

"Good choice I wish you luck Jon and may you live your life to its fullest this time around!"

Before Jon could say anything he went back into the void where nothing but his consciousness exists before once again opening his eyes this time seeing an elderly lady holding me with a bright smile while saying some inconceivable language and handing me to a pale looking woman with sweat rolling down her face. Even though she had just given birth and looked very tired she was still beautiful. Seeing her looking at me with wet eyes while holding me gently in her arms I knew I had been reborn and that everything I used to know was over. Feeling sad for a moment at how I never got to say my final words to my family who had been encouraging me so much when I was trying to better myself, I took a moment to say my goodbyes and wished for their happiness.
