✿ A new opportunity? ✿

Prologue

Footsteps sounded throughout the empty alleyway, echoing slightly. I sighed and pulled out my phone, checking the time

8:46PM

My eyebrows scrunched together and I fastened my pace after putting my phone away.

'How did it get so late? Why didn't mom call me? Is she working late again? God she needs to take a break. I know we need the money but she'll die at this rate..'

I sighed, shaking my head. I need to hurry home to make dinner for mom, she's been working so hard she deserves a break. I started to walk faster through the graffiti filled alley.

I slowed down a little, feeling safer when I made it to the end of the alley, but footsteps i thought were my own, didn't stop. I felt my heart drop and immediately turned around as fast as I could.

I whipped my head around to see who was running towards me and I panicked

My eyes widened and everything seemed to slow down.

My heartbeat pounded in my ears loudly, i couldn't even register what was happening, i felt nauseous, I knew what was happening, but I couldn't react to it. It felt like my body locked up and refused to let me moved.

Someone was running at me with a bat held in way that was about to hit my head, My eyes grew wide and i felt tears fall down my face.

Memories seemed to sweep past me as my final moments approached.

-

"Mom! Look I made this for you"

Her soft eyes looked up from her work and she smiled, "Really, honey? You're such an angel. Oh, come here sweetie" She picked up my small frame and smiled widely, her eyes tired from lack of sleep.

My father had left us to fend for ourselves after he fled out of the country with another woman, I loved my mom so much, she worked so hard to keep us afloat, she barely slept, but she always had time for me.

"What would I do without you, honey?" She hugged me and I happily hugged back, hot tears fell down her cheeks and I held her a little tighter.

"Don't worry momma, I'll help you.. "

Her sobs sounded throughout the room, she tried to never show weakness around me, she felt like she needed to keep me blissfully ignorant, but I knew.

I always knew

"I'm sorry momma, i love you" I whimpered out and softly closed my eyes, accepting my fate, knowing I couldn't do anything now, I had wasted my time.

I hope she doesn't miss me too bad, it had been us for the longest time.

And now, my mother had no family left.

The bat hit me, forcibly turning my neck that made me scream out in nauseating pain.

I felt my consciousness slip away and I let myself fall, gasping for air as the cold wind blew past me, I felt liquid drip down my head and I knew that I would surely die.

✿

I.. Where am i?

Why doesn't it hurt anymore?

Am i alive?

No, you died almost immediately after impact

Who are you?

A god of some sorts, It isn't important, but what is important, is that you get a second chance at life

What? Why?

Your regrets, I could hear them from a mile away. I have pity for you.

You get to try again, you will be given a chance to save or kill others.

Do you know Tokyo Revengers mayhaps?

Tokyo.. Revengers? Yeah i know it, ive read it at least a million times. It was my special interest in way, my mom would get me cute little charms of the characters whenever she had cash to. spare for my birthday.

You're being sent there, It'll be 2000, You'll have time to learn to fight and become acquainted with others, and enough time to figure out how to save others if you so wish.

I'm assuming ill retain knowledge of the manga?

Of course, How else will you remember? You'll remember everything actually, Oh and there will be a little system to keep your life interesting!

A.. system? To keep it interesting?

Yep!, get along well with your new family and neighbors, will you?

Before i could say anything else I woke up in a new room.

'It's so bright..God turn it off this hurts

I opened my eyes and adjusted to the lighting, I had window next to my bed, explaining the brightness.

"Guess it wasn't my imagination, this is really happening.."

"Nope, I'm totally psychotic. What kind of loopy drugs am I on to be in Tokyo Revengers?"

I laid back down, my head hurt, I felt like I was insane, where were any of the logistics?

Who even killed me..?

Why did they even kill me?

My head started to pound and i groaned in discomfort, tears starting to gather in my eyes as I held my head.

It felt like I was being hit all over again, I almost threw up at the blinding pain and the tears started to fall from my eyes and I cradled my ears while a ringing sounded within them.

For a moment I thought I would die again, before I even got up, when suddenly it stopped and I inhaled sharply, my eyes were wide as I stared at the wall in front of me.

I looked at my hands and they had blood on them, one of my ears had started to bleed, the blood trickled down my neck and I wiped it off, hoping it'd stop on its own.

I pulled my knees up to my chest while I laid my head on them and I suddenly remembered who had hit me.

".. that's impossible, i must really he insane.."

The black and blonde hair flashed in my mind as I shook my head.

It can't be him, that doesn't make any sense.

I refuse to believe it was him.
