Dying isn't fun I tell you! At first, I thought I'd be like Dr strange with astral projection but then boom, I'm in an office with death sat at a desk. Not what I was expecting to be honest.
"So your the next one, since you liked reincarnation stories so much that's where you'll go," said death. He wore a pitch-black suit with a black shirt, I was expecting robes and a scythe.
"Ugh, what do you mean that's where I'll go? Where will I go back to earth? Not heaven or hell?" I actually can't remember my name or what I looked like if I had a family, how I even died I just knew I did. all I could remember was I liked supernatural stories and that I was kind of a geek.
"No not for you those that believe in a certain religion go to that afterlife, heaven for good Christians hell for sinners that believe in it, even Valhalla if you're into the old Norse ways, they're all out there in the beyond" he replied with a smirk,
"But I believe in all the old gods just that their pantheons had different areas they ruled over so why reincarnation?" I asked it was perplexing.
"Exactly which do I send you to? The underworld? Helheim? Valhalla? So I chose none! You can choose the world you want to got to even mix and match a few but not too ridiculous and I'll throw in 5 wishes, all the other deities will have something to entertain them for a while" his reply started of annoyed but mellowed out towards the end.
It was like a lightning bolt had hit me. I'd actually remembered starting to write fanfics about this kind of situation and I already knew what I wanted and where I wanted to go.
"Ermm Mr death sir is there any restrictions on my wishes?" I asked hoping there wouldn't be because what I wanted was going to be one hell of an adventure!
"No, because you believed in multiple pantheons of deities they'll all contribute a little bit of their power to help you along. Not many people actually believe in beings such as Gaia and the older gods any more" he replied with a smile
I was ecstatic! I knew I would continue to believe in these deities after my rebirth.
"Okay I want to be reborn in a mixture of twilight, the originals, teen wolf, true blood, and the wizarding world but can you make it so that the werewolves are from teen wolf and vampires are like twilights just don't sparkle in the sun? And that the wizarding world is in the Pangaea dimension kind of like an overlapped world and accepts supernatural beings? Also, add in the Witcher schools as Hunter families and the magic core from them fanfics I liked" I asked hopefully it works because I want to be a badass werewolf wizard!
"Interesting! indeed it shall be done and your wishes? Don't take too long thinking about them the waiting rooms starting to fill up" death replied sounding intrigued.
"I already have them sir but do I get to choose my appearance?" I asked I can't remember what I looked like in my past life and my soul doesn't look like a person either I'm like a ball of mild electricity at the moment, If I had to put it into understandable words for most people a human is like a computer the body's the hardware the brain, the software and the souls the electric that runs the system.
"Yes that's fine but hurry up I've got 3 million souls waiting" he replied a bit annoyed
"Great okay so my 1st wish is that I want to be an immortal true alpha werewolf that stops ageing at 25 with Gaia's blessing attuned to nature with full control of my partial and full shift into a wolf
My 2nd wish is I want an adaptable mind with a mind palace, eidetic memory, concurrent thinking with an improved body constitution
My 3rd wish is to have the knowledge to magically and scientifically create tru blood of all human and supernatural beings like fae and a b and o type blood
My 4th wish is I want to be a wizard
And finally, my fifth wish is that I want to have a great comprehension of mundane and magic. Are there any problems with these wishes?"
I asked hoping that it wouldn't be because I have no idea what else to wish for.
"Hmm no they're quite alright but why ask for your 3rd wish if your not a vampire? and Gaia is quite pleased with your choice of her blessing but I expected an almighty system now I've lost that bet with mimir" he said quietly towards the end but I still picked it up
"Of course I'd choose Gaia! She's perfect for a wolf as they don't kill for sport and actually help the ecosystem they're a perfect match if I was going to be a vampire I'd have asked for Nyx's blessing seen as they prowl at night and why would I want a system? They're dumb, defining strength and intelligence with numbers or ranks is stupid it makes everything to easy.
Life's about struggling and overcoming different situations how else am I supposed to grow as a person? If everything is just in a floating box and skills? And the 3rd wish is just so I can make money and save the fae and integrate vampires in the wizarding world without loads of people ending up dead but anyway I'd like to ask a few questions before I go if that's alright?" I started to like it wasn't even worth thinking about but ended nervously
"Hahaha yeah your right and Nyx agrees but not many people make smart choices in this situation the guy last year asked for a system and to be a werewolf hahaha! ahem!" after he stopped laughing he looked at me with a toothy smile and said "Okay you get 3 but hurry up its been a week already" he sounded impressed and I calmed down a bit
"Ermm okay is Kratos the god of war? Or is it Ares? And how did I die? And the last isn't really a question more of a request can you please tell the gods I believed in that I am thankful for their help and that I would love to meet them all one day" I asked rapidly I'd wanted to know these things since I got here and found out all this stuff about all gods being real and my death just escaped me I had no idea at all was its truck-Kun? Was I killed?
Breaking me out of my thoughts death chuckled "Ares is still the Greeks god of war but Kratos is still a god just not of the Greeks he broke out of that pantheon letting them be reborn after some time gods can't die we just get weaker with fewer believers and for your death, you were under a sign that was hit by lightning and it crushed your skull, not the most pleasant but it was quick and painless"
"Ah okay so that's how and thanks I kinda liked the story of Kratos but I hope he finds peace he had a difficult life if what is told is true anyway thank you all for everything I'm eternally grateful I'll always be your believer and hopefully I'll add more believers in my next life. I'm ready to go now and can you just make me look a mix of Eric Northman and Bjorn Ironside please" I asked I guess they're quite handsome but not like some of the novels I was reading in the past people always wanted the best looks. I just don't get it yeah the attention can be good but it's just not me I'd rather just be appreciated for who I am rather then a model looks.
"That is quite simple I hope you have a great adventure in Pangaea I might send some other souls to the world you've created in the future if I do you will know instinctively it is of your design," he said as he snapped his fingers.
As I started to fade into darkness.
edited the second wish so the wording fits for you guys complaining
So yeah death just snapped me away. My first thought was saying 'don't feel too good' but enough of the pop culture references
I woke up in a cave, laying next to a few wolf cubs I don't remember being in the womb or anything like that. And I know I'm a human baby my guess is around 8 months old I can support my own head at least. I tried to move and it seems I can crawl, so that's a bonus.
'So I'm being raised by a pack of wolves, not of the supernatural variety mind you just a regular wolf pack wasn't expecting this, to be honest, I thought I'd have regular parents'
You want to know what's weird I actually kind of like this. Yeah I know it's a weird situation. Then it hit me I never specified the time I wanted to be reborn. 'Oh shit, I could be on actual Pangaea like millions of years before any civilization I know about. Ok, calm down! Just breathe and you'll figure it out" sighing I just got here no point panicking if I die again I'll just ask death if he'll send me to meet the gods.
So first things first get my bearings.
So I crawled out of the cave it was night time but I'm under the northern lights so I'm guessing I'm somewhere in Sweden or around there at least.
As I crawled out of the cave I just sat next to a bigger wolf and looked at it, this wolf was old if I'm to guess right. He's an elder staying with the young. His fur was a mix of grey and brown. I'm not sure how I know it's a him it just kind of feels that way? Anyway so I'm in Scandinavia somewhere ah this is going to take a while to figure out hopefully I see someone soon.
As I sat there admiring the beauty of the auroras a group of 3 wolves was approaching dragging what seemed to be a moose of what I can see in this mix of light and dark. 'Oh yeah, how am I supposed to eat a raw moose? Won't I get sick or something? Or will my wishes circumvent that? I am an immortal alpha werewolf, ah whatever I'm hungry anyway ' the wolf pups came running out and dived into the moose.
So yeah I'm gonna have to fight pups for my meals ugh but wolves grow fast so they'll leave me soon and go exploring with the pack. So I shot forward as fast as I could not actually crawling more like running on all four limbs. 'hmm must be because of my improved constitution" as I dived at the moose trying to chomp on it without a snout is kinda hard but at least my teeth actually pierced the skin. Raw moose wasn't too bad wasn't expecting that either.
This continued on for a few months I'm guessing I'm a year old by now but who knows I'm basically a human-wolf there were stories of kids raised by animals I'd heard in my past life but I never expected to be living it.
As time passed I still haven't seen anyone at all, maybe because we're in a cave in the woods. So I've been going over everything I remember from my past life I remember all the videos I watched on bushcraft and survival and stuff the books I'd read and all the TV and movies I'd ever seen I also remember pretty much everything that has nothing to do with who I was. I don't even have a name and there's no one else to talk to so the most sound I've made is grunt at the elder wolf the pups had already grown and began exploring so I hardly saw them anymore. The Luna would bring a moose for me and old bones as I'd started calling the elder wolf.
After my first year here, I've been following the moon's cycle to determine time counting the 13 full moons, so yeah it's been a year. I'm nearly 2 if I'm to guess but who knows. So yeah it's been a year and I've finally seen someone and the guy is right in front of me right now looking at me and the elder wolf. 'please don't kill old bones he's been keeping me safe' was all I could think about. Looking at the man to make a guess he's a Viking how I came to that is the axe in his hand it was basically a bearded axe. And he's wearing basic Viking attire a tunic with a cape held on with a pin of Thor's hammer. I could see that even from a distance as I stared at him, and he started to edge closer to us so I did what felt right I got on all 4s and began to growl at him.
he didn't turn around but old bones looked up at him then at me and patted me on the back with his paw pushing me forward as he stood up and walked away.
Looking at old bones then at the man I could just tell that he wanted me to go with him but what about old bones? he's really old he'll die soon.
So I did what anyone else would do in my situation I looked at old bones and woofed at him and raised my head with pride. I could tell he was leaving me to be with other humans so I looked at the man and sat back down waiting for him to approach old bones had gone into the cave behind me.
Viking pov
As I stared at the child and wolf I had no idea what was going on he just walked away from the boy I thought he was his meal at first but seeing the kid reaction it was more like the kid was a wolf as well. When he turned to look at the wolf I caught sight of his back. Golden brown markings in the shape of a giant tree.
'Yggdrasil' was my first thought of the beautiful golden brown tree. Actually looking closer at the child he had shortish blonde hair and piercing blue eyes that reminded me of an old friend. As I took a few steps forward as he sat down never letting my axe leave my hand I looked at the boy and he was looking at me like he wanted to know something I just couldn't guess what. He seemed a couple of winters old 'I can't leave this kid here to die on his own'
So I walked a bit faster and put my axe through the loop on my belt as I got a few steps away from the child he was still just looking at me not aggressively or scared just looking at me directly in the eyes.

'So he's a Viking so I'm somewhere between 700ad and 1000ad I've got a 1000 years to wait damn might as well go with him for a while after I'm an adult in their eyes I'll just leave and travel the world maybe find an entrance to the Pangaea dimension and wait it out'
As he approached and put his axe away I just stared at him, didn't want him to swing at me so I kept my face calm. He got a few steps in front of me and took off his cape and wrapped me in it, that's the first time since I arrived here That I wasn't naked he picked me up and started walking the way he came I started to fade into sleep in his cape as it's the warmest I've ever been.
