GAME ON!! 「(￣^￣)ゞ」

Prologue; Intro: The End Is Just The Start Of A New Beginning. Part 1

The full moon is shining brightly and the cool wind is blowing softly through the open windows of an abandoned building, illuminating its dark hallways and showing the three figures inside a rare cloudless winter night.

The three figures were running, with one of them chasing the other two. The two who is running is a woman and man, both in their twenties with peerless appearances while the one chasing them is a middle-aged man holding a gun and knife in both of his hands.

The couple who have been running for a long time soon reached a dead end and are forced to stop, as the man chasing them stop too and pointed his gun at them, cornering them. All three of them planted heavily, as the chase had indeed gone on for quite a long time.

A gunshot was heard, and the man fell down as the bullet went through his abdomen, and the woman beside him staring at this scene in a disbelieving daze. She snapped out of her daze, and hurriedly kneeled to the side of the man who now has a nasty hole in his stomach and his blood flowing from him.

Still panting heavily with a painful expression on his face, he managed to wheeze out "Ash... run... there's not much time left... hurry... please just leave me here... I'm sorry... I love you."

The woman cried silent tears, mourning the death of her beloved while facing the man who is now pointing the gun at her, asking softly "Why? Why had you gonna after us? We had done nothing wrong! Why did you have to kill us?"

The man answered "Because the both of you found out and known too much for your own good, things you shouldn't have anything to do with. I received the order to kill the both of you from the higher ups, even if you guys were the perfect killing machines that we have nurtured painstakingly."

A gunshot was heard again, and the sobbing girl had also been shot through her abdomen, weakly saying her last words "Freed... I love you too"

And darkness ensued. All Ashley could see is darkness, and after walking for what felt like an eternity, she saw a white light and hurriedly ran towards it. When she reached the light, everything became white, and she saw eleven figures of differing height. With her and the silhouettes walking towards each other, it hadn't taken long for them to reach one another.

What Ashley saw made she feel a rush of emotions running through her head all at once. Happiness, sadness, and confusion. Happiness because she recognizes Frederick among the people, sadness for realizing what had happened to both her and Freed, and confusion towards who all those people are.

The next few minutes were spent for greetings and introductions, and Ashley soon became acquainted with all of them. Starting from a man looking in his twenties with jet black hair and blood red eyes called Death and his wife, a light blonde haired emerald green eyed woman called Life.

A young woman with red hair and golden mercury eyes called Magic, a teenage boy with white hair and purple eyes called Peace and his twin brother with reddish brown hair and vermillion eyes called War.

There's also a cyan haired azure eyed teenage boy called Knowledge, a teenage girl with bubblegum pink hair and silver eyes called Fate, as well as triplet kids namely Chaos, a blue haired and molten gold eyed boy, Order, a brunette gray eyed girl and Luck, a viridescent haired orange eyed girl.

Long story short, they are all main gods that chose Ashley and Frederick to become the next Death and Life God respectively. And with that said, Death explained to them again, only in a more detailed way.

Ashley and Frederick have been judged by the gods to be worthy of their future positions, so the gods had allowed them to ascend to the realm of immortals, breaking over the boundary of mortals. And since their godly powers aren't very powerful yet, to build up their powers, Death gave them two choices.

The first one is to stay at the Death Islands and let their powers grow naturally but extremely slowly, and the second choice is to get reincarnated over and over again to gain potential power at each and every life.

Ashley and Frederick directly chose the second choice, thinking that if they are reincarnated, they might have a chance to have a family, something that the both of them never had. After confirming their choices, Chaos made a suggestion of giving a blessing from every god to Ashley and Frederick.

The other gods agreed, and Death went first. His gift to them is a soul chain to each of them, a delicate silver chain that can be stuck on their hair with ornaments containing their memories of every lives they ever lived. So far, since they had only lived once, the only ornament stuck in the chain is a jet black feather.

Life gave her blessing next, which is longevity for them in each and every life, so that they may enjoy their lives to the fullest extent. Magic blessed them with the gift of magic, allowing them to be more in tune with their newly found magic and thus refining and heightening their senses and instinct.

Peace blessed them with patience and calmness, while War blessed them with courage and survival instincts. Knowledge blessed them with photographic and eidetic memory, while Fate decided to bless them with the knowledge of the world they will be reincarnated into every time, including the supposed past and future of the world.

Chaos turned their lives into a game, making it easier for them to live and help the hero that was chosen by Fate, Order gave them common sense and logic, stating that nowadays many people don't seem to have it anymore and Luck blessed them so that every day in the life they live will be better than the first one they had or the one before.

Sooner or later, the blessings are given, and arrangements are made. So Ashley is surrounded by darkness once again. Chaos' magic is very painful– way more painful than anything she had ever felt before, as it has to reform Ashley's immortal soul to fit a mortal body.

Finally, after what felt like an eternity, or really was, the pain subsides and silver words in a black box showed themselves in front of her...
