《A Journey Through the Worlds.》001: The Beginning.

Seven days later:
1st earth later known as the area 06 and one of the central members of the Federation:
Dan was going home after a boring stressful day at work, he was a teacher of English at a local high school.
Hated by his students for being too serious, bored to death in his daily life no family no friends and of course no girlfriend.
when it comes to family he was an orphan and he got adopted by a kind couple when he was young but they died in a plane accident after he became 18, and they didn't have any relatives so he was on his own, he sold their house and car and along with some part-time jobs he was able to finish his studies and enter university, his parent left him a farm but he didn't want to sell it.
Friends, on the other hand, were easier to come by but hard to keep, because of his part-time job he didn't have a lot of free time so he didn't really have any time to spend with them, but that's just something he says in order to lie to himself, the true reason is that because of his childhood as an orphan in a bad orphanage and the death of his adaptive parents, he wasn't good in dealing with people even the part-time jobs that he worked at were ones that didn't need him to deal with people a lot.
After all of that we really don't need to talk about a girlfriend. He's cold and indifferent with a serious expression on his normal looking face which can be found everywhere, it's really hard for him to not be hated by the other sex let alone leaving a good impression.
But he wanted to change his boring life to a better one, so he was going to quit teaching and return to his parents' farm.
He never neglected the farm, he always goes there in order to take care of it, and he spends most of his holidays there.
He had already put his resignation and was only waiting for a substitute teacher to take his place, the administration said that he will be able to leave in the next week.
He looked at his phone and found that it was 16:00.
He opened the door to his home, a two rooms apartment, which he rented for the time that he spends in the city for his job.
He looked at the place that he called home, even though there was nothing that made it look like one.
As soon as he entered the house he felt the earth shaking and heard screams from the streets.
"An earthquake?" he murmured and as he was trying to leave his house he became dizzy and felt the world around him spinning.
The last thing that he saw as he made it to his doorsteps was many other people in the streets falling down and fainting.
...
All the people over all the worlds were confused. Except the people from the 3rd and the 19th earth none of the others know what really happened, but even the people from those two worlds didn't know what was really going to happen like how they didn't know that all the other people were going to lose consciousness and that when they awake they weren't the same...

At first, the people and journalist only wrote about people losing consciousness all over the world at the same time and the earthquake that hit every corner in the world, not many people noticed what really happened till finally, weird photos started appearing on the internet.
The first one was posted by a fishing boat captain he said that they were in the middle of the Pacific ocean when they lost consciousness and right as they woke up they found that the water in front of them has split in two, one part the normal blue sea while the other turned to darker shade of blue and the two were separated and didn't mix, and they spread as far as the eye could see.
Many weird pictures appeared. Such as some people from an island in the Pacific ocean that were fishing just by the shore of their island but when they lost consciousness and woke up again, they found that everything had disappeared and they were in the middle of the sea, the weirdest thing was that the G.P.S indicated that they were just in the same place but everything in the other side where the island was has been replaced with an expanse of sea water.
what's even weirder is that there were some people which had hallucinations about them living in other worlds, those people said that those worlds were the same as earth the only difference was in a few details, at first people didn't care about it, but soon many other people had the same hallucinations, which led people to rethink it, for many people all over the world to have the same hallucinations was quite weird.
all those weird things happened all over the world at the same time all the citizens were waiting for an explanation from there nation but no explanation was given until someone leaked a picture. The source of the picture was unknown and the poster too, but what the picture showed was unimaginable to the point where no one believed it.
the picture was from outer space and it showed earth or a part of the earth, no it really showed earth our whole planet but it has become only a small part of a bigger planet and around it were other almost identical places on the surface of this giant planet.
As expected no one believed this picture but soon each and every nation from all over the world broadcasted a breaking news asking for soldiers recruitment and all of them entered high alert states.
That put the people all over the world in a mass panic which led to the breaking of chaos all over the world.
People all over the world were panicking and asking their governments to tell them the reason for all of this.
But no matter what they did no other information were shown and all the nations fell silent...
...
When Dan opened his eyes again he felt a horrible headache.
He knew that something wasn't right as soon as his senses returned to him.

His name was Dan Riodan, a weird name, but that's not what he cared about.
What made him puzzled was the fact that he remembered leaving 21 lives as Dan Riodan.
He wasn't able to remember everything from A to Z but he was able to remember that he lived 21 lives, and in each one of them he had the same name he also was able to remember that all those worlds were called earth but they had their differences.
Like in his first 'earth' he was in a world that was exactly as our earth, the only differences were that that world wasn't as advanced as ours in technology but it was more like a world in the middle ages, the other difference was that in that world people had superpowers.
He couldn't remember what happened to him in that life, like his friends did he marry where he lived etc. etc...
But he was able to remember his job, some common sense of that world, and the knowledge he gained in his life and from his job.
He was a librarian, the superpower he had in that world was the ability to remember anything he saw, and he was able to remember how useless his ability was in that world. It was one of the world's rarest "as it was the first time it appeared in the world" and most useless abilities there.
Some of the common sense he was able to remember was how the world was controlled by seven people called the Great Gods by the people.
They was the strongest people in that world. Simply put they were seven people that had the ability to destroy the world.
Their superpowers weren't something a perfect memory can go against.
The Seven Gods' position wasn't permanent, as there was a chance every ten years to challenge one of them if you won you could take the older Great God's position and become one of the seven, but if you lose, only death awaits.
This earth wasn't the only world that he could remember, as there were another 20 worlds.
It was the same thing in the other 20 worlds. He was only able to remember his job what those worlds was like, and some other thing... The same as the first world.
Dan didn't know what to believe as he saw all those memories.
They were so realistic and detailed he knew that they weren't hallucinations or anything like that.
"Dan are you alright?" he suddenly heard a voice calling him.
Lifting his head he saw an old man walking toward him, it wasn't till then that he returned to his senses and remembered that he was leaving his home because of the earthquake when he suddenly felt dizzy and fell consciousness.
"Grandpa Ben what's happening? why is there so much noise outside?" Dan asked.
Grandpa Ben was an old man in his sixties, a known and loved figure in the neighborhood, and he acted in a good way with every one of the people there, when Dan moved there he was the one that helped him set down and toke care of him the most.
"You felt the earthquake just now right?" grandpa Ben asked.
"Yes, but I fainted soon after I felt it."
"That what happened to everyone, the last thing all of us remember is the earthquake but we all fainted soon after it."
"All of us?" Dan asked in a confused tone.
"Yes that's the weirdest thing, it seems that everyone lost consciousness from old men and women to babes every one of us fainted just seconds after the earthquake." Grandpa Ben said while frowning.
"Grandpa Ben after you woke up di... Did you feel anything different?" Dan felt that what was happening was weird and with the addition of the memories that he had in his mind, he asked Grandpa Ben.
"Well, I somehow remember having this weird dream... No, it's not really a dream it's more like... I don't know how to explain it, it's almost like I have some broken memories of a me in another earth, I lived in a place where there were dinosaurs. And human in that world had great body strength, this is all what I can make out from those memories, I didn't want to talk to anyone about it but it seems that you also felt something, right?" Grandpa Ben seemed hesitating as he said all of that but he looked at Dan as he finished talking.
Dan knew which world Grandpa Ben was talking about, it was the third world that Dan lived in. it was, from what he could remember, just as Grandpa Ben described it a world with dinosaurs and the technologic advancement in it was nonexistent.
But the humans in it had such strong bodies and used only barbaric tools and their body strength to fight the gigantic dinosaurs.
Dan didn't know why he was able to remember another 20 worlds more than Grandpa Ben but he didn't think about it anymore as he looked at Grandpa Ben and said:
"I really do remember the same thing..." and Dan described everything about the third world that he was in.
He didn't want to lie to Grandpa Ben but he couldn't tell him everything about what he remembered, so he only told him about the world that they both remembered about.
"So it can't be a dream..." Grandpa Ben murmured

Ortus
A woman wakes up in a forest, naked, alone, and injured. She has nothing but a strange, black dagger and mysterious, floating, blue boxes to aid her. Can she find food and water? Survive the deadly animals? Escape the forest? Learn about the life-altering magic the boxes provide her? She has to use her wits, her knowledge, and maths to do so. But first, baby steps. She doesn't even understand the language, yet. If you see any maths mistakes or strange story decisions, leave a comment and I will either fix it or consider changing it. This is also, essentially, a first draft. That means I will edit older chapters and nothing is final, including numbers. Any major changes are listed in the changelog below each chapter. Since this is a first draft, the start is noticably bad and inconsistent compared to the more recent chapters so you will have to endure that to get to the good stuff. Rewritten version of Ortus (Old Version)

War, Honor and Vengeance
In a world where there is no right or wrong, justice and injustice, good or evil, it is the world where only the strong persists while the weak slaves. A world filled with lies, treachery and betrayal. There is no two way. Only one way. One way to either Hell or Heavens. Some call it Destiny, some call it Providence, others call it The God’s Will. But I call it Fate. My arch-nemesis. Something so invisible, out-of-reach and strong, that no matter how much you fight, there seems no end. But tell me, will you succumb to your fate, as others rise on it. Tell me, will you let your family, your children, your wives be slaughtered and slaved on this so-called Fate. No. War. In a world where lives are nothing more than livestock, either you rise up and rule in passion or go down in flames. Will you stay mum and accept this so-called Fate and be slaughtered by your enemies, or will you rise up. Wealth, fame, fortune, desires are not ever-lasting. Only War is eternal. Vengeance. In a world where with no rights and wrong, the weak would be preyed upon while the strong will wreak havoc. But, will you accept your fate of being weak…. No. You rise up and exact revenge for all the wrongs done to you. You rise for Vengeance. Honor. Honor… something which runs deep within our blood, but yet forgotten in dust. Something, so intangible, so frail, yet so over-powering. Villains justify it as useless, Lords deem it as unnecessary and Kings mock it as worthless, but yet, it flows ever so deeply within. Deeply… like our thirst of wealth and power. Without this so-called useless, worthless and unnecessary piece of intangible force, we, as Knights are nothing but mere foot soldiers. So, rise up! Rise Up! RISE UP, my Knights. For War! For Vengeance! For Honor!!!! ………………………………………………………… The release rates are going to be a bit sloppy with my college entrance exams upcoming, so please don’t be angry, my avid readers. I also want to inform you that my college entrance exams are coming up and so, I wont be making regular updates like Im doing now and the chapters will generally be around 1.5-1.7k. Along with that, Im inclined to inform you that, the story will be progressing slowly, so be ready to wait. The promised release date will be every Tuesday, generally at 7:00pm (IndianST) and there will be a guarantee of 7 chapters per week. Not one bit less but if you want more, well ...well...
