(Author's Note): Hey guys, these are the side stories of several of the characters who will be introduced later on. These aren't all of them, but are some of the most important ones. New chapter is coming soon, I think you guys will be pleasantly surprised at what Jason plans to do.
The Pirate
_______________________________________________________
When the mad god Vira Zin summoned me, I was kinda confused, but at the same time, I was happy. I mean, this means I can reach heights I never could on Earth. Back there I was a simple pirate in an age where pirates were no longer the legendary figures they used to be.
Me and my boys operated out of Venezuela, taking down small cargo ships or private rich yachts. Mostly the rich Yachts. Damn, it was fun to see those rich assholes’ faces when we threw them overboard. But it never did amount to much, we had to keep our heads down, and be careful who we robbed. Piss off the wrong cartel, or hold hostage the wrong senator, you're dead. Get too big and become a threat, you're dead. Stay too small and you look weak. Dead dead dead.
But here I could be different. Here I WOULD be different. I had always wished to take down the bigger ships, the huge american cargo ships, the European Cruise Liners. The bigger the ship, the more I wished to see it either added to my own fleet, or sunk to the deep. And now I would. For my transformation, I chose the thing all seafarers, navy or pirate, fear: The Kraken. Then I chose air control. I don't understand this whole super powers thing, I never had time for tv shows or storybooks, but if I can make sailing easier with this power, it should be useful. I’ll make a tailwind for my allies, but storms for my enemies!
I have what I came for, it's time for me to leave. I never was much of a talker. As I begin heading south, already outside the main area of the camp, some guy keeps asking me about my ability. I saw him doing the same to others. He probably is choosing which to eat, and he isn't being very secretive about it. True killers move in silence, this clown is no threat to me, I ignore him. This seems to make him mad. He tries to attack me. Foolish. A quick combination from me and the man was down on the floor. He rolled around, holding his bleeding nose.
He was truly furious then. He turned into… A demon?! Sudden fear rose up from me. I had been brought up Catholic, so of course I had been taught about the evils and powers of demons. But he didn't look like any of the old illustrations the sisters used to how us of famous ones, he looked far more deadly. This fear is… unnatural. I can barely think straight, but I put together a hasty plan.
I was preparing for him to attack again, when he did, this time I knocked him back while imagining wind attacking with me, the result is that, rather than wind coming from my fist, it was sucked in from behind my punch. rather than an air cannon, I suppose this would be a wind tunnel. This of course was not enough to take out a demon, but as the man attempted to rise, a hoof promptly came down on his throat. Then again and again until the man’s head had been separated from the body.

The one who had stepped in was the man they were calling ‘The bull’. He currently had a man’s torso, but bull legs. The sight was quite horrendous. He looked up at me and asked “ You want to split him 50/50?” I was going to say no, but then, as though a great beast had stirred within me, I had a change of mind. “With pleasure” I said. We began to feast on his flesh. It was disgusting. but then something happened. It began to taste good. before I realized, I had turned into a kraken, and had completely sucked my portion up. I also realized I had gained something… pheromone control? what are pheromones? Is this what caused the fear? I knew I shouldn't have dropped out of school.
The man had been struggling to eat his portion, when suddenly he too took on his transformed state. It was different than I recall. rather than a bull, he now looked like a minotaur, i think. He must have received the demonic transformation. Why didn't I? must be because we split the body. He proceeded to scoop up the remains and swallow them in one gulp. He turned to me, and I realized we were around the same height transformed, 10 meters. This of course was not counting my tentacles amongst the trees. I reassumed my human form.
This was not really smart around a known cannibal, but it had been growing hard to breath air in that form. Thankfully, he did the same. He held out his hand, and said “We should be friends, I’m Alexander.” this… was a lot more friendly than i thought it should be. “Olivar de Corteza, The Stormbringer”. He chuckled as he shook my hand. I began walking the way I started as he returned to the other people in that clearing. I know not why, but I have a feeling that we will meet again, and when we do, he will have caused far more storms than I. I pick up the pace. It’s time I find a ship.
The Hero
__________________________________________________________________
Senji Kanada. Or Kanada Senji, this looks like it may be a western style world. That had been my name. The old me. The lesser hero. When I woke in this world, I knew it was different, that I would be different. I wouldn’t be just another unknown brat from Hokkaido here. I was going to be a true hero, just like the ones in manga!
When the time came to choose our abilities I chose Dragon for my transformation, I mean if you're a hero after all, it has to be dragon right? For my other ability, I chose nullify. A ero should be able to stop his enemies without killing them!!
After a while, people start trying out their transformations. They were… pitiful to say the least. I began to be afraid, but I transformed anyway. I hear sounds of amazement. I wasn't like the others, I was a true dragon. This can only be a sign, a sign that I was chosen! My scale shone a fierce white as I took off from the ground.

I get used to flying, as more and more take the air with me. there are kinds of other dragons and birds of prey, of all sizes. I’m no longer the biggest, but that’s alright, justice always prevails in a fight. But I have no reason to fight anyone. While everyone is excited, I fly off. its time i get started. My new life as a hero is going to unfold, and the first step is becoming an adventurer!
I’m still flying when night hits. Or rather its more like gliding, I don't really know how to explain but it's not hard at all. All of a sudden I hear a roar behind me. It was another dragon, one from the clearing. He was unique in that he had chrome scales. I almost wish I had thought of that. Why is he following me… wait. I think he’s about to attack me! I dive as a beam of light shoots past me. I circle around below him. He may be bigger than me, but I’m the better flyer. I dodge several off his beams until a lucky one hits my wing.
IT-HURTS-IT-HURTS-IT-HURTS-IT-HURTS! Theres a whole in my left wing! I crash land into the side of a hill that was luckily made of soft soil. The chrome dragon in closing in for the kill with high speed. Ah, I see. He wants to eat me. Me. A HERO OF FUCKING JUSTICE!?!?! “Nullify!” I roar. The dragon suddenly becomes a man. I see his surprised face as he crashes to the floor. I promptly feast on his villainous flesh. Tastes kind of like gyoza. I am not wrong in this, To oppose me is to oppose justice, and to oppose justice is to be evil. Evil is not human, Evil has no rights. I am not eating a human, I am absorbing evil and purifying it into power for my own body. Ye, I think I know who I shall be in this life. Tensei Senryuu: The Celestial Dragon.
The Invader
____________________________________________________________________
Welp, I suppose being Atheist wasn't the right lifestyle choice. I mean I was just kidnapped by a fucking god and forced to listen to some bullshit it had to say. All I cared about was that a week had already passed. My world tour was ruined! How many fangirls would I lose from this?! I worked hard, VERY hard to become the king of the music industry at only 27. started in a boyband at 16, and look where I am now? Or rather where I was. Who knows how long it’ll take me to make it back, if I do at all. I swear that god will pay.
Well it looks like the bastard god is going to give us superpowers. Let’s see here, he said things like us. Well, I’m the the king of freedom according to the magazines. Hmmmm, that reminds me of an old jewish legend my father used to speak of. Back when we were speaking at least, wasn't much to talk about ever since I told him I didn't believe in god. He doesn't deal with the faithless, you see. But that legend, I think the creature was called “Zizz”.
Crap, I said it without thinking! Whatever, I was probably going to choose that anyway. Oh we get another power! let’s see… Domination! yeah, that should work for what I’m planning to do. I’m going to get as powerful as possible in this world, gain as many followers as I can, then make Vira Zin take us home, or murder it. Simple as that. I’m not going to let that thing take my life from me!
Later that night, I woke up too screams. People had begun killing each other! I mean I knew it was a matter of time, but come on, the first night? Sheesh, you guys waste no time. Oh well, time to go join in. I made my peace with what needed to happen hours ago. I assume my transformed mode for the first time. Wooooo I’m big! at least 9 meters tall, and my wingspan is around 4 times that. My beautiful violet feathers catch the moonlight nicely as i beat all four of my wings to take off. Damn I’m sexy no matter what form i take. T’is why the bitches love me.
Even in the air, a battle field is beginning to rage. Dragons, hawks, gryphons, gods, Everything was fighting. I see a small dragon doling out some fairly powerful explosive fireballs. I’ll start with him. I fly towards it and attack the giant hawk that was closing in on it from behind. I rip it apart without even thinking about it. I devour it mid air in seconds. The dragon and I make eye contact, then nod to one another. Thats one ally down.
We go around, saving a few creatures, until we had around 20, then I said, “We’re leaving.” Damn my voice was deep in this form. We pull towards the north, with the mini dragon guarding the back. Wow, it really is a miracle we made it out of there, cause I don't really fight usually, but somehow i killed and ate at least 15. I feel their power seeping through me.Just you wait Mad God, Skylar Grayhem coming.
