Ooh. That was unpleasant. Fucking sheep. Still can’t believe I was almost eaten by a fucking livestock.

Anyway, where am I. I expected to wake up in my Soul Palace after fainting. But, it’s still dark. As if I’m out of my body. Even in my Soul Palace I can feel myself. But here I don’t feel anything. So, I guess this is out of body experience, huh.

As I was waiting for something happen, suddenly while light lights in front of me and I lose consciousness again.

I suddenly wake up and see a white ceiling with a small chandelier hanging from it. I try to move my body after waking up but I can’t move my body. After struggling for a while, I understand I can’t do shit.

As I was struggling my body moves on its own. And after lying down for a while it gets up and tidies the bed. Now that I saw it I was sleeping on a mattress. And as I was tidying up the bed I hear a voice coming from the down stairs.

“Alex, washup and come down for breakfast.”

“Okay mom.”

Hmm, it seems I’m simply an observer. So, it means I’m simply watching movie from a first-person perspective. This is unsettling. But strangely I feel at relaxed.

And since there isn’t anything I can do, only choice is to watch this movie till it finishes.

My body goes to washroom and takes come of the business and comes before a sink. And I finally see what my body looks like. Apparently, I’m in a body of a five to six years old boy.

After washing up boy goes down stairs and go to dining room. At a dining table there is a man reading morning papers. Can’t see the face because of the paper.

And there is a woman frying something by the stove wearing an apron.

“Morning dad, morning mom.”

“Morning son.”

Man says while putting the papers down and looks at the boy with a little grin.

“Morning sweetheart.”

Woman says while putting a plateful of food in front of the and kisses him on the forehead.

“Wake up Sarah!”

Woman shouts to the upstairs.

“I’m awake already!”

Comes back response.

After few minutes girl of about fourteen comes down and sits opposite of the boy.

“Morning.”

“Morning Sarah.”

Answers others to the sleepy girl. Then family proceeds with their breakfast.

Apparently, boy’s name is Alex, six years old first grade. Parents are Walter and Amanda. Both teachers at university. Father is physics teacher and mother are math teacher. And his sister is named Sarah, thirteen and in eighth grade.

As watch Alex grow up I get a feeling that I have some kind of relation to Alex. Don’t knot what but there is some kind of relation.

Alex is like boys his age little bit naughty and mischievous. And at the same time good boy. As he grows up he changes little by little along with his family. Because of his educational background he’s a straight A student.

And as he grows up he gets into his fair share of trouble and achieve his fair share of accomplishments too. And like boys his age he gets it hobbies like video games and adventure. But realizing that he can’t become a main-characters in his games and novels he starts to wonder. No matter what he does he can’t achieve what they did in world he’s living.

So, like his parents he starts to pursue knowledge. Realizing that knowledge is the only thing that he can pursue without limit. He chose physics as his main pursuit like his father. But he doesn’t only concentrate on physics. He learns about almost everything he sees as long as he manages to get the learning material.

And one day he comes across a certain concept about multiverse.

The multiverse is a hypothetical group of multiple universes including the universe in which humans live. Together, these universes comprise everything that exists: the entirety of space, time, matter, energy, the physical laws and the constants that describe them. The different universes within the multiverse are called the "parallel universes", "other universes", or "alternative universes"

His interest in early days correlated to this discovery. He begins to wonder, is there another universe. Where things are different from here. More he thought about it more he couldn’t get rid of this belief. So, he started to focus on his research about multiverse.

But unfortunately, more he researched more he got disappointed. He tries every possible way. On top of that the world around him started to change too.

Everyday he wakes up and looks at headlines it reads something terrible. He understands human society itself is starting to rot. It’s not like there is no good. There is good in all this. But bad is too overwhelming. And more his life gets like this more he wants answer. Is there really different universe. And if there is, is there a human too? Are they same to humans here too?

And more he looked, more he was getting close to a conclusion that humans are inherently evil. And that realization made him fear. And there was like minded people too.

So, even though his research didn’t yield much, he kept at it. But more he kept at it more he lost connection to society. Keeping contact with only his family. His parents’ death at bank robbers made his disconnection worse. He no longer cared about what was happening outside. He gave his all to his research.

Only after twenty-five years of research he managed to catch a lead. He managed to catch a certain signal with unknown origin. After studying that signal in depth, he manages to locate its origin point.

It was coming from the other side of the fabrics of universe. As he got a reliable lead he pursues that lead with zeal and finally come at a conclusion that there is indeed a parallel universe where there is a different planet that exists in same position as Earth. And sometimes certain resonance happens between Earth and that planet on the other side. And that resonance was the signal he found, his very first lead.

Those resonance can happen in everything. Between animals, landscape and even humans. His theory is those kinds of resonances are the reason for some humans’ dreams or visions of something that doesn’t exist in this world.

And since it can go both ways he starts trying to connect to the other side and send message. At later stages send himself to the other side. But breaking through dimension barrier at will was much harder than he thought. So, he starts to look at it from another angle. How does the resonance happen?

After years of research he manages to find out reason for resonance is superimposition. Once in a while to objects superimpose and that causes resonance. After this find he starts to try to superimpose with anything on the other side. But probability of that happening was next to zero.

So, he starts to build an antenna that is capable of locating a signal that is coming from the other side. And as soon as he manages to triangulate a signal’s point of origin he starts to build receiver on that exact point. And one day he finally receives a signal from the other side. That proved that something is superimposed on the other side with that exact point.

And that made it possible for him to break through the dimensional barrier. First, he tries sending a signal. That signal gets sent but there was no reply. After confirming that signal was sent through he starts to create a tunnel to travel between dimensions.

After ten more years of research, experiment and building he finally manages to build his tunnel.

But unfortunately, just as his tunnel was about to puncture through the dimensional barrier it comes just a little bit short and backfires, causing a huge explosion.

That explosion was the last thing he saw. But just as he was about to be engulfed by an explosion, he feels something being ripped out of his body and gets sent through the dimensional barrier.
