《I should care because?》The afterlife

Afterlife
What do you think happens in the afterlife? Or perhaps the afterlife doesn't exsist. We don't know, do we?
If you were to ask anyone on the streets about the afterlife, their answers will surely range according to their beliefs.
Though, you should know that what happens after we die is what we believe in. Because...chances are we may not even be 'real'. Existing in a non-existent world.
The moment we die, we are reincarnated. If you were rincarnated fast enough, then perhaps you can retain your memories, the longer you stay without a body, the more you forget.
Of course, how long is too long, that depeds on how long you lived. Say you lived 86 years, then your spirit has 86 years to live before it starts to degrade.
"Would you like to reborn now, or later?" a spirit asked them, it was floating around the white space. Were it not for the small movements it made, most would've already missed it.
This was a spirit unwilling to reincarnate, and so started to degrade after it's time was up. Who it was, what it was, that was all in the past, 'regret' was something it couldn't comprehend. How can you forget something you can't remember?
"We would like to wait," the couple said, sweet smiles on their faces. They would like to see if the world ended.
Yes, you could in fact do that in the afterlife. They even have large movie theaters each corresponding to a region.
Any smaller than that, you pay with your life years. You could regain it back if someone gave you some of theirs.
Without any furthur questions, the spirit immediantly left and the couple was left stranded in the middle of a bustling crowd. On their wrist was what seemed to be a glowing square that didn't resemble anything that they knew off.

On it were a lot of numbers, how many years they lived, the couple supposed. Below it were the the options, reincarnations now, or later.
"Hoow diidd yoou diee??" An extremely slow, rumbling, voice asked them.
"Suicide, you?" The female asked. Turing her head to see a rather large tortoise create a blockage in the road.
"Ah, vampires these days. If you must know, I was turned into pretty good soup," her eyes crinkled up into a smile and the couple laughed heartily.
"I had a good life, and a lot of children, there really aren't a lot of us left, you know?" Her eyes glazed a little, remembering the times long gone.
"We had a son..." the father said, his soft voice very different from when he was alive.
"Then why kill yourself?" The turtoise asked. If you could, why not protect your children for as long as possiible?
"We are vampires," when we die, the only place our powers go is to the closest blood relative.
"Iiis thaaat sooo?"
"What can we say? We still want to save our home afterall."

The Goddess’ Chosen
Destiny is a strange force indeed. One simple act can create a ripple, one simple change can cause a cataclysm. One act outside of the individual would be enough to alter one's life no matter how insignificant that life may be. This is the adventures of Allisa Reed, a young girl from our world who found the legendary sword Excalibur and taken to the magical world of Avalon. On the other side of the portal with her friends by her side, Allisa is forced into a conflict she is not prepared for, ordained as the Goddess Chosen to bring about one of two possible outcomes; Salvation or destruction. ------------------------------------ Author's notes: This is more or less the first draft of this story. Currently working on a second draft. Spelling and grammar is definitely my biggest weakness, particularly in my earlier stuff. I've done some editing and hopefully have ironed out most of these mistakes in my older chapters though I'm fairly certain there are some mistakes still left. This story is ongoing. Updates are slow as I publish when a chapter is ready. Expect long chapters for most of it. Just sort of my style. Only available on Royal road.com

Second Chance
A goddess from another world—defeated and forced into hiding by her sister, now seeks help from an outsider. A U.S. military tactician at the peak of human capability fails to find challenge in his life. In a spark of a moment, reality bends and they meet. She offers her power in exchange for his help to defeat her sister, The Goddess of Justice. While he gets to experience a new world at the cost of being public enemy number one. In an accident during transportation, their consciousnesses connect, allowing them to read to each other’s thoughts and feelings. Now in a thrillingly unfamiliar place, he needs to find a way to take down a goddess and fend off her angels in the process. Good thing he can wield the immense power of a deity to aid him. Author’s note: Second Chance is primarily about the flow of combat between characters, each with their own reasons for fighting. The world is dynamic, constantly changing through the story based on the actions of the characters. The story is intended to be told not just through writing, but through music and animation as well. The first music video was released along with chapter six. If you want a taste, you can find my channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2LG4UHDJYqNWn6YS5Q2CVA

Saints and Suffering: A Naruto Fanfiction
Synopsis: Naruto and Sasuke were unable to defeat Kaguya the first time around, and suffer immensely for their failure. They travel back in time to right their wrongs, but struggle with the repercussions of their failure and the unintended consequences of their actions. Author's Note: This is fanfiction, I am a first time author, and I make no claims nor guarantees to quality. I have another story floating around in my head, but I am writing this first in order to practice my skills and gain feedback. Please feel free to give constructive criticism, I will try to read and respond. No guarantees to upload schedule or speed will be made. I work a full time job, and I am not particularly fast at writing, though maybe speed will increase as I become more practiced with my storytelling. This work will essentially be my playground moving forward; I'm going to write about scenarios that tickle my fancy, and the overall story may suffer from it. I will endeavor to keep continuity though. I have an outline that I am working on, and there is an overall arc to the story already. Furthermore, as of the beginning of this novel, my intention with this novel is to explore negative emotions and use my writing as a form of meditation/therapy. When I am sad, I will write sad things, and when I'm happy, the story will be happy. Lastly, there will be religious undertones every once in a while. Hopefully nothing too heavy handed though.
