"Bright." I muttered as I brought my arm to my eyes.
"Oh a thousand apologies we forgot to turn the supernova background off." A calm, powerful voice stated "There is that better." Suddenly the light which was burning my retinas vanished and what remained was an office? Grey walls, A small desk with a door behind on the other side of it and oh so sort of creature made or pure blue light?
"Where? Where am I? How did I get here?" I asked not understanding what I'm looking at. "Who are you, what are you"
*Haah* The being sighed "Great another talker" They muttered "Where's the stunned silent types I've been hearing so much about" *ahem* clearing their non existent throat it continued.
"What we are is not important now, welco to your life evaluation your physical body has co to its inevitable end and your mind was able to enter a higher conscious due to your open view on 'Afterlife' you've been approved for reincarnation congratulations!"
"Co to its end you an.. I'm dead? How, when? I don't rember" I asked in mild panic I tried recalling sothing anything out of the ordinary from today but blank everything seed normal
"Well" the blue being interrupted" It doesn't matter now does it? Your flesh sack is already decomposing and a new one is waiting for you sowhere in the infinite how exciting right?"
Before I got a chance to interject the being continued "Now lets see." It looked at so forms on its desk. "karma, karma, karma lets seee... Ah here" "So good yea to be expected. So bad mmhhhm mhhhm nothing out of the ordinary. Congratulations your karma in your last life turned out just slightly positive from neutral a good balance"
"So does all this an anything or are you just telling this for nothing" I said curiously
"Of course, of course. You get a small boon in your next life. Nothing super powerful and no great curse as I said balanced karma you don't deserve that. However, the one you do get is a roll of the dice. You will receive it the instant you are born it could be absolutely anything." "Of course you can decline this offer and return to the infinite as energy what say you?"
I pondered for a mont becoming one with the infinite does sound rather pleasant in a way but so would a chance to start a fresh. My past life wasn't anything to write ho about, evidence of that was my balanced karma. 22 years and nothing to show for it may as well hit the reset.
"Will I get to choose my new world?" I inquired
"No"
"Race?" "No" "Gender?" "No" "Anything" "Yes" "Really?" "No"
...
"Fine ill still take your offer and boon. Thank you"
"Wonderful wonderful now lets get the process over quick we have another appointnt after yours in two of your 'linear' decades and we really want to get so rest before that, soo please this way" he gestured to the door behind his desk and stated " Walk through and your existence will be remoulded into its new form and what should feel like a short ti your new life awaits"
Standing from the chair I walked to the door and took a deep breath. As the door was opened there was what I assu to be a sort of portal a black centre surrounded in rainbow accents I could feel myself pulling towards it but I stopped myself ,probably self preservation kicking in, and asked. "Does it hurt?"
"Does what hurt?"
"Remoulding my existence. It does not sound like a pleasant experience."
The being paused, surprise would be showing on its face if it had any distinguishing details "We are not sure, we've never considered that hmmmm." It rubbed its chin 'we should follow up with the boss' after this.' it looked back to regaining themselves "But it shouldn't. We've never heard screams."
Great...
"Very reassuring" I whispered "Ok. Ok. Ok. lets do this. Wish luck" As I said that I jumped through the portal into whatever fate awaited .
