The Time I Failed As An Author and Became The 2nd Soul of The Eminence In Shadow

Two Souls, One Body

Hello, I'm taking a grab at a stupid idea I had while trying to sleep. What if Cid was reincarnated with another soul dwelling in the same body. The other soul mostly takes on the imaginary version of me within my fucked up brain.

Little side note: the plot will follow as it does in canon just Cid isn't in the background. We will still have Cid/Minoru saying absolutely stupid shit.

Littler Note: shit will be getting random. I can absolutely promise that shit gets random

Even smaller note. Dialogue goes as such.

PoV= Narrator for the section
"Atomic." = Normal dialogue
[Damn] = Convo between Minoru and Author/Eternal.

I love to write, it's just who I became. Where it all started was in the 3rd grade. That's when my anime addiction started. Eventually though after you've seen enough of the same thing on repeat. . . You grow, bored of it all I guess. That's where the imagination comes in.

You see the imagination is a strong force in a child's mind. Imagination is what makes life, life I guess. The ability to shape a story how you feel would make it interesting. Of course not everyone has the same taste. Some people prefer overpowered characters that have no limits. Others like a good romance story. It all vary on the type of person.

In the 5th grade I began to. . . Suppress my imagination in some way. It wasn't good because it only built up and back fired on me. Two years later I started writing fanfiction. Life was going decent enough for me not to worry.

People always told me high school was where everyone became assholes. I couldn't really pick that up. Everyone kept to themselves and their groups. It was just how it was. I joined things that brought me joy.

But throughout it all I felt empty. Maybe because in my imagination I was some powerful being that could control his circumstances. But in the real world. . . I was nothing plain and simple. Well at least I used to be before I got hit by a car.

Death was one of the best things that happened to me. I'd been reincarnated through some means. I was given new life in a new world. One where I could have the power I desired. I could show off, enjoy life and the things that came with strength.

???: "I have a dream. . . To make it come true, I don't need anyone. I started alone, people come. . . Then they all leave. You always end up alone. . . I will become strong enough to need only myself."

Except there was one very prominent problem. This is Minoru Kagenou, he also died and reincarnated. The problem being that we were. . . Forced to share a body.

Minoru was something else. From what he told me in his previous life. He had strength and intelligence close to the human limit yet decided to keep it secret. All for the simple dream of being the "Eminence in Shadow" something I still can't wrap my head around.

He kept himself in the background and kept to himself. He'd saved some girl in his world the day before he died. He died chasing magic like a lunatic. . . Something tells me we're going to get along wonderfully.

???: "Haha, Claire always wanted a younger brother. She'll be overjoyed"

We were in the arms of woman with black hair and crimson eyes. A bald man leaned over us with an overjoyed expression.

???: "Something's not right, he never seems to cry."
