"Hello?"
That's all I could say. I mean nobody exists around me. Just Darkness. The Darkness felt as if it is trying to oppress me. It was getting harder to just think and move. I had to escape this cage, but how?
I drifted, and floated, my soul trying to figure out where to go. I then saw a light piercing the darkness. That's my ticket out of here!
I floated as fast as I could. A desperation set into me. I was confused, discombobulated, but most of all I was tired of running through the darkness as it pushed down me. The uncertainty, the unknown, and with that the doubts. All washed away from this bright light I called hope.
I finally arrived. It looked familiar. The oval portal showed an image of a... planet?
It looked familiar. I touched it, then was sucked into the bright unknown. Willingly.
The light guides me out of the darkness, but now I experienced painful reverberations throughout my soul. Memories that were once mine, were given back to me. As I came onto the planet, and a body was awaiting me, I had been born anew, and a sense of purpose instilled into me. I am David.
The planet was called Earth. I sat in my room contemplating my past, my future, and present. An apocalypse would happen, and I would be a champion among billions. 10,000 people chosen to lead humanity into the stars. A system to guide them. Competition to push out our potential. But we failed. Alien life were technologically superior. United. But the humans bred like rabbits compared to the aliens as humans were overall stronger with numbers, but were divided. The system that brought us together also split us apart for its rewards.
But that had nothing to do with me. Or did it?
I was well known for all the wrong reasons. My past self had been too trusting. Too naive. He got betrayed after he reached the perceived end of the apocalypse. They never crossed him, because he was too strong, but when the entirety of humanity was against him, while denying his achievements? His spirit crumbled. My past self took over a plot of land, and that is the story of how one of the greatest strategists, and soldier lived a life of luxury controlling a single planet.
My goal?
To be the one of the strongest Overlords.
What happens after?
Well maybe I'll just rest a little.
Yeah those memories might've affected me more then I thought. Interesting, yet terrifying.
Interesting, because I could not recollect anything more than what I have thought about, terrifying, because I don't have memories of why exactly I have come back.
I need to learn more, but first I sleep.
