Chapter 1: Chapter one
**Naruto's Jumper Twin**
*Chapter 1*
It's a completely different feeling to have a life full of happiness stripped away from you.
Let's get straight to the point: I wasn't an orphan or a depressed person crying about the unfairness of life. Quite the opposite; I had a loving family and lived a life that many would call average. But hey, it could have been worse. I could have been staying on the streets.
I am a twenty-five-year-old man, and I live with my three-year girlfriend, Sandra, in a three-bedroom apartment. I work as a cashier at a nearby mall, earning a decent wage, and life couldn't get any better than this—at least, that's what I thought at the moment.
I had prepared my proposal to finally take the big leap of faith later today when my boss unexpectedly called me to his office as I was packing up to leave.
Meeting the big boss typically meant either you were getting fired or facing trouble, so there was no way to escape this situation.
I picked up my things with sweaty palms and hurriedly walked to his office, hoping for the best.
"Good evening, sir. But whatever Betty said, I swear I didn't do it. It isn't my fault they left the back door open," I tried to calm myself, saying whatever came to mind to avoid any misunderstandings. I focused on his forehead, avoiding eye contact, knowing that I would crumble if I looked him in the eyes.
"Enough! Stephen, I called you here to inform you that you're getting a raise due to your hard work and calm nature while handling customers. Now, go along; I no longer want to hear your unintelligent mumbling." A slight smirk appeared on his face, accompanied by a glint of amusement.
"Wait! A… a raise? Thank you, sir! I will make sure that you don't regret this decision." I backed away slowly, surprised I didn't shout from excitement and relief.
As I turned to leave the office quickly, Big Mike called out, "Wait!"
That stopped me in my tracks. "Good luck on the proposal tonight; I heard from the others."
"Thank you, sir." But before I could continue expressing my gratitude, he interrupted, "Did I compliment you, or did I tell you to talk to me? Get out of my office."
Swallowing my words, I left with my head held high in pride and accomplishment. The day couldn't get any better.
I pulled out my phone to text Sandra about the promotion and to meet me at a rather fancy restaurant for which I had made reservations.
As I reached into my pocket, I felt the small box containing the ring, which boosted my mood even further, though nervousness still crawled in my chest.
I walked toward the restaurant, humming a happy tune. However, halfway through my journey, I started feeling uneasy, which I attributed to my nerves.
As I got closer to the restaurant, my discomfort grew. With each step, I felt a warning, but I didn't understand it.
I opened the door and prepared to walk in. That's when I saw her, staring out the window, looking absolutely beautiful. But then I noticed a man in a blue suit, wearing a full white mask that only exposed his green eyes, sitting cross-legged in my seat. My bad feeling intensified.
I took a step inside, looked straight into his eyes, and my body betrayed me. I could no longer feel my limbs. I fell backward, hitting the floor with a thud.
Everything around me seemed to pause, except for him, and every sound faded away except for one—his deep voice.
"Hehahahaha, oh ooh. Hehaha. I cannot believe that after all these reincarnations, you still die in the stupidest ways. Hahaha. A heart attack, really? And for what, just because you experienced some déjà vu?" Fear and confusion began swirling within me.
"What's next, are you going to trip on your own feet? Oh wait, that was in the eighteenth rebirth! Hahaha. But to tell you the truth, I'm tired of being the guardian angel of the unluckiest soul known to the comic order." Confusion and anger surged within me. '
'Somebody must have drugged me at work ,I have a feeling its Betty I always knew that fat trap was always out to get me.' I thought clearly not believing any of his words ; I couldn't believe my whole life had been so meaningless.
I shifted my gaze to catch a glimpse of the woman I knew as the love of my life. I truly didn't know what to do; in fact, I didn't even know who this guy was, aside from being my supposed guardian angel.
He moved and pushed a strand of her hair back.
"Oh, don't tell me this is our newest lover—or should I say previous? Haha. I've got to hand it to you, hmm, John… Luke… Ken? Oh, what's your current name again? Oh right, Stephen! You have your ideal way of living. How can you always live a comfortable yet average life, but always die in the most basic of ways? You always have the three big needs: a family, a job, and a soulmate. Let's cut to the chase, shall we? You see, I'm tired of you, so I'm going to reincarnate you for the last time—randomly. It's either that, or your soul is vanquished."
Each name he said sounded a little too uncomfortably familiar.
The more I listened the angrier I became like why me . 'Why is all this nonsense happening to me ? Go reincarnate somebody else leave me alone.' I thought.
" Now before we depart my dearest friend, please note carefully that the world your gonna go to is random so if you end up in a zombie world have fun running for your life. So now I hope we never meet again and good luck. " He said joyfully.
With that everything started fading away as if it was a painting till my vision was replaced with black.
Timeskip: unknown
'I dont know how long I stayed in that dark space but I kinda got to terms with my current situation, not fully but hey couldn't beat around for whats lost now I could think without feeling like burning that damned son of a bitch. After my regular round of cursing him and blessing those I lost or rather those who lost me. '
Trying to no longer linger on the past but look to the future but who was I kidding which future was apparent in this place.
** Time skip 10 months**
POV: Stephen
'I finally started feeling my body again any longer and I swear I would have lost my mind. After some good time of hearing weird mumbling and feeling something connected to my navel I concluded that I was in a womb yeah, a womb where I couldn't even complain freely and audibly.'
And just to add on I think …I wasn't alone in here.Mehh probably not.
'But the question was why did that asshole make me a baby, did he just feel petty ? like he could have just made me a five year old but no of course he didn't . Do you know how weird it is to feel something entering your stomach through your belly button? No, yeah I wish I also didn't.'
Oh I need some interaction with somebody because talking to myself is bound to make me run mad.'
A bright light struck my eyes and pain hit my body from all sides as I felt something pulling my head out.
'Finally, I swear to God that I will cherish this life to the best of my ability and I will survive . Yeah, you had me I will survive, I will never die ever again. I will become immortal hahaha' Just as my will which I was gonna call the will of L short for life was being drawn into this world, I felt a sharp pain envelop my butt as I let out a thunderous roar which came out as "Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaa." Reminding me of my baby status.
Then my vision became clear but it kinda confused me because like ain't babies only supposed to gain clear eyesight after few days or so maybe am wrong.(A/N I also don't know , this was a guess)
Now imagine my shock instead of seeing the nurse who was supposed to die for hitting my sacred area, I see a beautiful woman with crimson red hair with a bloody wound in the middle of her chest and a tired smile looking at us wait…us!!! I look beside me and …who the holy grail is this tiny creature occupaying my personal space. I see a baby with blonde yellowish hair and.... whisker marks?
Then out of the blue or rather yellow a man with same characteristic hair as the baby besides me appeared with a conflicted smile on his face .
"Kushina, my love It's time you say goodbye. I am sorry I took the happiness of motherhood from you." He said with a heavy tone.
My suspicions were increasing right now but then they were proven when i saw a gigantic freaking death cat or rather fox in front of us and was cut into two entering me and the baby besides me.
I was in Naruto a world full of war, death and damned powered war criminals . Why this world ? Why not something peaceful like rabbit invasion or moana but no a world full of child soldiers initiated by bathing in blood.
'But hey I got a powerup with that big fox energy in me. Ohh lord that sounds wrong'
As i fnished my last line of thought everything paused no motion whatsoever. Did I just die…already. Instead of the suited bastard from before I saw a freaking monster behind my new father smiling towards me with hostility but instead of talking to me or mocking me it was also paused.
A panel appeared in front of me.
… Dear idiot …
If your reading this, you died
again.
But I knew you couldn't live a
full lifetime without me so I
took the liberty to bless you
as the last of my guardian
duties. I made it in a way
that it would adapt to the
the world your reborn in
with a useful power buttt
It would take something
you might find important
now or in the future.
WITH THAT I HOPE YOU DON'T DIE SOON …AGAIN.
YOURS SINCERELY ARIEL THE 166TH
